Got to play for an hour before the servers went down again. The 50% inheritance on the mortar is amazing. It's like I'm sniping, but with nukes.
[QUOTE==DarkStar=;35007842]Oh yeah pathfinder fucker I got you lock, 3-2-1 beep ready to laun...miss the lock. And yes Im the classy doombringer who sit in the hill over the enemy base to spam missiles. :v: God I love the class but I suck so hard.[/QUOTE] It's a totally different story when you have two doombringers camping your base on temple ruins and you aren't in the air for more than ten seconds before you have about six missiles coming at you.
[QUOTE=The golden;35008146]Dear Painseeker, No. Yours sincerely, Hi-Rez Studios[/QUOTE] What a shame. :v:
What is this inheritance you people speak of?
Essentially, inheritance means that a projectile inherits a percentage of the speed that the person who fired it is going at.
[QUOTE=Funny Hats;35008154]It's a totally different story when you have two doombringers camping your base on temple ruins and you aren't in the air for more than ten seconds before you have about six missiles coming at you.[/QUOTE] I hate when Im trying to get my flag back and the pathfinder is in the air and then everybody fly right next to him and the lock jumps all over the place and when you are just one milisecond to shoot the goddamn missile he lands. I hate alot that little second of delay between the button press and the actual shot.

[QUOTE=Raijin;35008571]So, say i'm going at 300 sanics and fire a mortar. The mortar will ACTUALLY FOLLOW THE LAWS OF PHYSICS NOW?[/QUOTE] If you're going 300 sanics and shoot the mortar, the mortar round will move an additional 150 sanics in the direction you're moving.
This could mean Juggernauts are going to be even more annoying if used right, hooray

They really need to make the Saber launcher better. Not only for my own Doombringing but also because getting targeted by a missile while you're rollin' at speed of sound is intense. Dunno, I like having to intercept or run away from something that's going to kill me if I don't do one of the two perfectly but the missiles as they are now are pretty poopy.
I think the time to lock on should scale to speed of target and the size of it too. Anyone know how to stop the "old Hi-Command shortcut" thing?
And servers are down again.
Some helpful advice I read on hitting stationary targets with inheritance is to pretend you're standing still, and everything else is moving.

Sorry to ask but I can't find the changelog anywhere. Someone please post it.
the servers need to go ahead and like be up

I then proceeded to mash VGS repeatedly.

I was trying to get one soldier in the distant and out of nowhere the ship try to kill me and the missile explode in our faces (and I got alive just by pure luck) They spam VGS like madmans after that :v:
I'm slightly confused at how the XP system works. Some games I get over 10k points and wind up with 2000XP, some games less than 10k points I get 3000 or more XP, not including first win of the day or anything. That and the fact that the points never add up in the post game summary, I don't get it.

just played a game on blood eagle where everyone was well-coordinated and understood whenever i used VSAF to point out i was gonna fastgrab the flag, because they all VCA "acknowledged" me in response they grow up so fast
