Invincibility lies in the sand. The possibility of victory lies in the raking.
The heavy bolt launcher is an odd one, it's brilliant for my style of play (Defence with slight-midfield offence in play) It has a huge drop but a really nice 700 damage with a large splash (Biggest splash in the game I think) It's great when coupled with defensive mines as you don't wait for the gun to spin up and only do 100 a shot, it's pretty much - mines detonate, you kill. Indoors it's great as you'd expect with any explosive weapons but it definitely requires some practice to get the hang of where to shoot it. It's got quite a small collision model from what I can tell so they fly past a lot, but again - huge explosive radius. It's overall a good weapon to use with a different playstyle, for example you can't chase people with it efficiently as you could with the chaingun, but if you were defending the flag I'd definitely say take the CG over the bolter. If you're looking to change from defensive to attacking, don't invest in it, I find doing only a slight bit more of chasing with it compared to the chaingun, but it's mostly against heavies/mediums. If anything the bolter makes me less likely to chase somebody going fast, it's incredibly difficult to judge the trajectory at long distances, but in summary it's a pretty neato weapon if you want to mix things up a bit.

Oh lordy, I got the Heavy Shield pack for Brute and it is a blast. Stop those Jackal grenades, they tickle.
nvm [editline]29th March 2012[/editline] ugh this sucks all the people i've invited are already playing the game, so i don't get referral experience for it laaame
[QUOTE=Ripper Roo;35345739]Tell me about it. It's on my list of possible purchases. Also, Stealth Spinfusor or Jackal?[/QUOTE] Spinfusor now, and the heavy bolt launcher is an amazing tool, but you should take some time with the chaingun and see if you like that because they're pretty equal, just putting it down to your style, slow hard explosions or constant damage.
I sent my referal to a bunch of people on my friendlist and posted it on a small forum i know I'm expecting at least 3 of all the people who I sent the link to join Shameless referral link [url]https://account.hirezstudios.com/tribesascend/?referral=1492167[/url]
I love the Beowulf. Especially because of a rather nice match I had two days ago. Got shot at by a sniper, although he missed. Followed the tracer back to the sniper's position. Aimed a couple cm above it, shot and drove away. Killed him by doing 2000 hp, AKA a direct hit. This was on that new map. I was next to my base and this guy was in one of the bunkers. Not the big ones, but the tiny one that was the furthest away from my base.
TB put a referral link in his latest video. shit, son

There's not much point posting these referrals in here as most of the people browsing are actual players
Read the chatlog :v: [img]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/595840436591613190/943977EE5D1DE5048251F11BC815F7AA204BC8FE/[/img] The whole server laugh pretty hard and we stop the fire for 30 seconds. Best moment in this game for me.

You can get easy xp with that referral link Just create a fake account and level it up to 6 level and you get 5k xp free on your main account
[QUOTE=Fusnax;35347306]You can get easy xp with that referral link Just create a fake account and level it up to 6 level and you get 5k xp free on your main account[/QUOTE] As opposed to just playing a few games on your main and getting 5k XP on there?
[QUOTE=Fusnax;35347306]You can get easy xp with that referral link Just create a fake account and level it up to 6 level and you get 5k xp free on your main account[/QUOTE] 5k is nothing for someone with a boost and VIP. The other rewards look nice though
What is a "successful" referral? 3 friends have signed up but nothing has happened so far.
[QUOTE=jeimizu;35343981]Each friend leveled to [B]level 6[/B][/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Painseeker;35347673]What is a "successful" referral? 3 friends have signed up but nothing has happened so far.[/QUOTE] They have to get to level 6.
How easy was it to get up to level 6? I don't even remember.

Agh, i can't seem to play this for more than a couple of games before getting bored... I only played like 20 games in my 30 day boost period...
Well, now I have to hope my friends actually play the game, one of them doesn't even like shooters. :v:
[img]http://puu.sh/mZxh[/img] Well, time to wait Anyways I'm not getting many credits after each around, if we win I usually get between 300 and 600 exp, so which badges gives most exp? and there are any badges for upgrading turrets and radars?
Hmmm, what weapon should I get from the free 250 gold on facebook? or should I get something else. The Spinfusor for the soldier seems nice.
