Something like Tribes universe equivalent to a Desert Eagle in .50 AE.
[QUOTE=kukiric;35686359]Doombringer also needs a pistol as a secondary replacement for the Sabre Launcher because I hate running out of ammo as doombringer when I'm harassing cappers.[/QUOTE] That's when I run at them with claws.
[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;35686235]He needs that fucking X1 LMG removed and given to the Doombringer as another primary.[/QUOTE] No, the Brute needs the LG because he is a frontal offensive class. [editline]23rd April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=The golden;35686183]>:l[/QUOTE] Hey,we all need love!
anyone else noticing a bad hit detection on melee? sometimes i can hit someone before they're even close to me but if im running behind someone who hasnt noticed me yet i struggle to hit
[QUOTE=TurbisV2;35686514]anyone else noticing a bad hit detection on melee? sometimes i can hit someone before they're even close to me but if im running behind someone who hasnt noticed me yet i struggle to hit[/QUOTE] I wouldn't say bad hit detection, but definitely a delay between the motion of the sword/claws and the hitmarker/bump the person gets.
Bought an one-day booster with the free gold someone posted a few pages back Played for 10 hours nonstop to make the most of it 30k XP in the end Totally worth it

I am starting to hate this game so much, spend 50$ on it and just realised how all 100000 xp weapons are straigt upgrades.
[QUOTE=C4rnage;35686655]Secundary pls ,saber is useless if u defending indoors[/QUOTE] He needs a dummy-fire rocket launcher that does considerably less damage than Saber.
[QUOTE=Niklas;35686682]I am starting to hate this game so much, spend 50$ on it and just realised how all 100000 xp weapons are straigt upgrades.[/QUOTE] your post just goes to show that even if people spend money on the game they still have no idea what theyre talking about
[QUOTE=Niklas;35686682]I am starting to hate this game so much, spend 50$ on it and just realised how all 100000 xp weapons are straigt upgrades.[/QUOTE] wow, really? I really don't think the weapons are worth spending that much on. If you really wanted them so bad you should of just got a booster.
[QUOTE=jackattack;35686801]wow, really? I really don't think the weapons are worth spending that much on. If you really wanted them so bad you should of just got a booster.[/QUOTE] This. A 30-day booster will get you more points than you will ever need. I got a 10-day booster and it already payed for itself threefold.
[QUOTE=Niklas;35686682]I am starting to hate this game so much, spend 50$ on it and just realised how all 100000 xp weapons are straigt upgrades.[/QUOTE] It depends on your play style, they promote different styles but hardly any seem like a total upgrade all the time, it's dependant. I.e. Bolt launcher - Total upgrade if you're a chaser, but if you're a capper? Nope. X1 LMG - If you're outside mortaring a base? again, a massive upgrade, but if you're inside the Spinfusor is better. Even the Tech thumper - Amazing indoors, but outdoors it'll lose out to the SMG. I don't think there's a single weapon you can buy which is a complete upgrade in every situation over the stock ones. Edit: Forgot about the Falcon, that's a straight upgrade.

[QUOTE==DarkStar=;35686962]You forgot the MIRV, the Jackal and the Phase Rifle.[/QUOTE] Mirv isn't a straight upgrade at all as your damage is more spread, fusion mortar is better for bombarding the flag stand and use indoors. Jackal is arguably worse than the Spinfusor, depends entirely on the situation again, and I'd say if you're outside harassing defenders then the Rhino is a more suitable choice. Phase rifle is definitely not an upgrade, there's a reason all the comp snipers use the BXT1, especially considering that the Phase Rifles' crosshair is appallingly bad. There's so few weapons which are complete upgrades all the time, I think the only 1 really is the Falcon.
If you think the tech thumper is OP, play outside with the SMG it's godly

I have the feeling they wanted to make it kinda like a stickylauncher, but that you can make them explode in air makes it easier to aim than a spinfusor, you can set traps, insta kill mid classes with 1 burst and it has double the damage of a spinfusor. Exept for that the spinfusor doesn't have drop i see no reason not to use the jackal.

MIRV just overrides the backpedal when you are 1 to 1 against a jugger but the Jackal is by far and offensive weapon to the max. Hi-rez got in mind a defensive trap like the prism mines but better but they end with the jackal being a far versatile form of the ARX buster.

Not trying to sound like an ass, but those guns look way to strong. The plasma rifle atleast.
Also drydocks night for C&H.
It's basically a semi-auto thumper and a MIRV grenade. Why hi-rez, why? Brute needs some serious love, Raiders don't need anything else.
Oh god, all of my money.
[QUOTE=Aedus;35687637]It's basically a semi-auto thumper and a MIRV grenade. Why hi-rez, why? Brute needs some serious love, Raiders don't need anything else.[/QUOTE] A thumper with a really crappy splash damage though. The grenade looks delicious and i can tell it's going to recieve alot of hate.. and love. Might aswell spend my 100k xp on the raider now i guess, probably won't play it right off the bat since i'm pretty sure there will be alot of Raider this coming weeks.
As cool as the plasma rifle looks, it seems a bit overpowered, I think it should deliver about 400 damage per shot instead of 500. [QUOTE=Miskav;35687374]-img- That was with a juggernaut.

[QUOTE=phabeZ;35687446]Uploaded to Tribes channel 3 minutes ago [video=youtube;nmCjcwESC70]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmCjcwESC70[/video][/QUOTE] Cool.
Tip for when this comes out- Don't rush to buy them, wait until they've been given appropriate adjustments the day after and see if they're still worth it.
