Unlocking weapons is 42000 XP. Holy titfuck I'll never gather that amount
[QUOTE=Géza!;35272475]Unlocking weapons is 42000 XP. Holy titfuck I'll never gather that amount[/QUOTE] That's how they get people to buy their gold and boosters
[QUOTE=d00msdaydan;35272490]That's how they get people to buy their gold and boosters[/QUOTE] Well, at least it is possible to get them for free.
[QUOTE=Géza!;35272475]Unlocking weapons is 42000 XP. Holy titfuck I'll never gather that amount[/QUOTE] Make getting all the classes your first goal, then finding out which ones you really enjoy before saving up and splashing cash. Also, VIP is so worth it
Well, so far, Soldier is my favourite. Dat Thumper.
I have waited for 20 minutes already, still no code from mmoattack;(
[QUOTE=LaughBann;35272685]I have waited for 20 minutes already, still no code from mmoattack;([/QUOTE] I got it after 20 seconds or so.
Created 2 accounts already, neither of them have received theirs;( the number goes down, only 140 left.

[QUOTE=ViralHatred;35272813][i]Hi I'm a technician. I'm pretty much the same class as you, except I get more kills and kick your ass everytime because of my bigger gun.[/i][/QUOTE] Pfft, what does a technician even do :v:
Max survivalist + raider = infinite health, ammo and shields. I am UNSTOPPABLE!
I never play Raider and decided to try it out on Crossfire, ran straight into the gen room and got a Quatra Kill :v:
Thrust pack only gives you up to 140km/h boost? Seems useless.
[QUOTE=blazingfly;35273009]Thrust pack only gives you up to 140km/h boost? Seems useless.[/QUOTE] It's really useful if: You come to a dead stop/get slowed down by something Gaining initial speed when you spawn, throw a nitron and you have yourself a good amount of speed Dodging shots from projectile weapons/escaping Llama grabbing, sounds bad but you can boost yourself with the spinfusor after and get away, only do it if nobodies coming
[QUOTE=blazingfly;35273009]Thrust pack only gives you up to 140km/h boost? Seems useless.[/QUOTE] Thrust at top of a hill, skii down it, impact nitron going up next hill. When your speed drops below 60 in air use thrust again, easy 240 with only 1 impact nitron when you land on the next hill. Depending on map. Thrust pack is awesome for dueling and for getting 150 sanic e-grabs, especially because nitrons cause flag drop now
[QUOTE=Géza!;35272861]Pfft, what does a technician even do :v:[/QUOTE] Buys a thumper.
[QUOTE=Rolond Returns;35273114]Buys a thumper.[/QUOTE] Then owns everything. Just wait for the RL turrets and everyone to go "Technician op!!"
This game is amazing and a stayer imo. It can be right up there with Q3arena, Unreal Tournament if handled well. Grabbing a flag at super high speed is so much fun.
[QUOTE=Géza!;35272668]Well, so far, Soldier is my favourite. Dat Thumper.[/QUOTE] I am great as Raider and especially Soldier. I mastered the Thumper and I bought the Spinfuser, which means I'm 3 times more explosive.
God dammit, it seems like every match I join there's at least 3 mines, 2 forcefields, and around 3 Technician turrets around their flag stand, and twice as many turrets near their generator. Then couple that with awful teams, and there's literally no reason to keep playing. Also, does anyone else occasionally hit something while jetpacking up hills? Seems like my guy stubs his toe, and comes to a dead stop.
i really like the team deathmatch twist in this game, its so fun carrying the flag being chased by half the enemy team in circles
TDM is a great way to get away from most of the bullshit that happens in CTF. Thought it's still annoying as fuck when you get an awful team and the score is 80-20
i'm really bad at ctf :( people yell at me
The enemy always has tons of shields, turrets and mines around their flag, while the team which I'm in never has anything near it :v: [editline]24th March 2012[/editline] I should go around and start lobbing grenades around like hell with the utility pack. [editline]24th March 2012[/editline] Might not be very effective, but I'm sure it's fun to do and perhaps get a kill too.

That's fucking painful.
I wish people on my team would be more mindful of the fact that my Arx Buster stickies can stick to them and blow me up. Jesus I died like 5 times yesterday in the same match on bella omega because of people stepping in front of me when I was firing.
Quick Q, what's the stopping power on the MIRV launcher like? I have nearly enough to buy it, but I'm not sure how it shapes up to the fusion in terms of deadliness. From what I've seen, it does less damage but over a slightly wider area, and is pretty good for shelling bases as a more anti-personnel weapon. Is this correct?

[editline]24th March 2012[/editline] To clarify, you need to hit the guy with all the shots it fires to one hit a medium, so it probably won't kill a guy outdoors. It's great for gen camping, though.
[QUOTE=The golden;35274824]I like walking up behind snipers on my team and just stare at the back of their head. (works best as a heavy). Eventually they descope and turn around. (Any decent sniper checks their back every so often), and I usually scare the fuck out of them. Either that, or I plant a sticky on the side of their head.[/QUOTE] My friend always goes up behind friendly sents and uses the knife, the sound usually makes them shit bricks
