I have 74000 exp points ready for the update
Are there any new weapons or items confirmed for the release? If so, I need to grind hard; spent most of my exp on maxing pathfinder out.
[QUOTE=Foogooman;35516617]Maybe it's a new brute skin too[/QUOTE]
That's the way everyone's hands looked before they added different hand models for every class.
I actually like the old ones because they're very high quality.
[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;35516722]It has mines and a shield in the lower left.[/QUOTE]
Oh, I meant to say doombringer.
Should I go back to use the shield pack as a raider and switch survivalist with potential energy?
[QUOTE=The golden;35516787]Goodie! More weapons for the heavy classes while everyone else gets nothing.[/QUOTE]
Because Infiltrator totally didn't get new weapons.

Doombringers have a 1000m no-fun zone aroun them when they have the Missile Launcher out. Even though the launcher sucks, its jus tannoying. THE SOUND, I hear it in my nightmares, and my end game after being locked on. Whenever I'm in a vehicle. If I see the DMB who fired the missile i will charge him right then and there and fuck his shit up. Abusing Gimbal Lock is the way to do it.
To anyone who doesn't know what Gimbal lock is. It's when you look all the way up or all the way down and can't go any farther. It is the best way to deal with Automatic users because going from front to back and over them means they need to move their mouse way more. You can abuse it with the shrike to get tight turns in dog fights.
Has anyone used soldier proximity grenades? They sound cool.

I didn't know there was a name for that. Thanks for the info.
In recent news, I bought the grenade launcher and jammer pack for RDR after a long 84k exp grind. Holy bowels, it's worth it. I normally defend the base because I'm useless at offence and sweet cheesus Gen defence has never been easier.

Gimbal Lock is a limitation caused by certain types of rotational systems, I think euler's.
You know how in an FPS you control 2 axis with your mouse, the horizontal has no limit on roation. The vertical is limited to <90 degrees both up and down. You can't do a barrel roll in the shrike with its current physics.

Ever seen a Gimbal before, its like a gyro in a gyro. In a 3 axis on there is this weird thing that happens when you spin all three. You would expect each to move smoothly along its axis of rotation right? But you see at a certain point though it is still moving in its axis its isn't moving in space, it looks like it wobbles The Pink and Green do as expected, but the blue doesn't move In an FPS we are on the pink gimbal for side to side and the blue gimbal for verticle. However you need to place limits on how far you can go to prevent player models/ animations from breaking due to gimbal lock.

Its complicated and very cool. Read it, learn it, exploit it in games to prevent people from maintaining aim on you.
TLDR; Basically it is special situations where an object with 3 degrees of freedom is limited to 2 degrees of freedom.
So the game "launches" soon- does that mean they'll wipe all the stats? I wouldn't have used my 250 gold if I knew :O

They have the second best dueling weapon in the game what are you talking about.
