Tribes: Ascend v2: I went slow once and it was awful - Games

The spinfusor feels weird, the shots aren't 'predictable', eg, like HL2s crossbow.

I getting sick of Raiders.

[QUOTE==DarkStar=;35040533]I getting sick of Raiders.[/QUOTE] Yesterday on my Raider, trying to attack the gen room, there was this Brute with the Heavy Spinfusor killing me 24/7.

Anyone know how you get the Tactician Bade? Says to "call out kills." Guessing it has something to do with the VGS.

Brought Thrust Pack, getting speed is soooooo easy now. Is the raider's Grenade Launcher any good? Might start saving up for that next.

The FAQ says all progress will continue[/url] Purchased Mechanic perk. Even upgraded it twice. Apparently it's still locked. Hmm...

The slots that are locked and unlocked don't move, so Mechanic still has Quick Draw's button state.

Anyone tried that new melee pushing perk? What's the radius/reach of it like?

Haven't seen anyone use it yet so guessing it's not that good, a thing they could do to buff it would be making it so that you disrupt their jetpack for 1-2 seconds so they can't just fly away etc.

Its awesome for infilitarors going for sticky kills because heavies can't back into you. Also a hint to people playing Infilitrator, unless you are planning to attack someone soon. When in cloak stay in third person, its easier to tell when you are being jammed. Going to unlock Grenade Launcher fully today, then Raider will be 100%. Then I go for Soldiers Spinfusor+Pistol, then finish the rest of the classes Armor bonuses. I should be able to make 50k again today.

So what would you take as secondary on the infil if you're going for melee heavy play with the sonic punch?

I can't get whatever's past gold for the speed badge (320 sanics), since they took out Temple Ruins. I got 10 sanics away on Katabatic.

Once you get used to it, its not too hard to aim.

[QUOTE=Crimor;35043830]So what would you take as secondary on the infil if you're going for melee heavy play with the sonic punch?[/QUOTE] survivalist because getting health and enery from ammo drops is the best thing

Damn there were 3 mediums looking into the gen room on crossfire and i back stabbed all of them at once :v: VGTG

i feel like a little bird with a broken wing when im playing as pathfinder and my jetpack runs out of energy

[QUOTE=TheStateTrooper;35045256]i feel like a little bird with a broken wing when im playing as pathfinder and my jetpack runs out of energy[/QUOTE] I feel that when I dont have any sticky mines and I have one mk4 turrent to destroy.

People always get so mad at raiders when they survive at 4 HP because of their shield

fuck raiders no skill bastards its not hard to shield all my fucking damage [editline]7th March 2012[/editline] seriously, fuck that shit

But then they lose all mobility and are ded

Okay, so I went at 347 sanics and I still didn't unlock the Go Fast badge to obsidian. It said 347/320 km/h. The worst part is it NOW says 267/320 km/h because apparently your last match overwrites your fastest ski. FUCK

[QUOTE=Dwragon82997;35045711]But then they lose all mobility and are ded[/QUOTE] are you implying they need mobility when they have 2 health pools an 80 damage a hit smg a high damage emp grenade(or a blinding whiteout) and a spammable grenade launcher? any raider worth his salt will have good aim with both the smg and grenade launchers and is damn near unkillable 1v1. theyre the best dueling class(because they have a shield) the best flag clearing class and the best base destroying class

Are there any one-time badges besides inventory station, and falling to your death?

I have become the king of raider caps. Last 4+ matches I got 3 to 5 caps.

And yet the people I hear it from in games don't play raider "because it's a shit class" I don't understand

[QUOTE=The very best;35046465]It's weird, I hear this a lot. And yet the people I hear it from in games don't play raider "because it's a shit class" I don't understand[/QUOTE] ive been playing raider and infiltrator lately sooo plus anyone saying "its a shit class" means theyre fucking dumb

Yeah raider is really strong, you don't even need the shield pack really, that just makes them even better.

YOUR SHIELD IS WORTHLESS.

[QUOTE=The very best;35046465]It's weird, I hear this a lot. And yet the people I hear it from in games don't play raider "because it's a shit class" I don't understand[/QUOTE] Raider has a high skill-ceiling, and a very low skill-floor. He isn't easy to use if you can't play him well. The default setup is hard to use compared to a soldier, but is so much better when you can play it right. AR and Thumper DX are easy to use weapons, thumper explodes on contact. Raider's ARX has less dmg per shot, but its higher rof means its is amazing IF you land your shots. The sheild means you can take a hit and still have most of your health. Max energy negates 650 dmg with shield, so you can full absorb a splash dmg hit without taking HP dmg. Raider is awesome and better then a soldier in all ways indoors. He also makes Techs rage. Only classes I have played intentionally since the update to track it are Sentinel, Pathfinder and Raider. I accidentally spawned as infiltrator a few times and owned some heavies there too.

His Heavy Spinfusor would do shitload of damage and he'd throw rave grenades all over the place.
