[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;35805950]Some infiltrators can actually manage to do some real damage that way and keep hiding in the base until a tech find him... and get horribly murdered.[/QUOTE]
Still more honourable in my opinion, atleast they want to take the generator and base assets off.
I swear I have seen some brutes, especially on raindance, getting their way into the generator and suicide with a grenade to their feet for the unique purpose of tricking people to fall into it..
Normally, at least as I've seen, brutes in your base is basically the same as breaking the generator beyond repairing, sealing the base and replacing the door with spikes until you have someone to help you take back the base.
[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;35800857]Whenever, this Saturday?[/QUOTE]
Perfect timing, I'm getting my new computer this Saturday. That way I can play with y'all.
[QUOTE=krail9;35805674]but don't you dare change to the other inf primaries because then you're a pay2win noob![/QUOTE]
Never get called pay2win for using Prism Mines, instantly get called pay2win when you break out the Smoke Grenades
I don't know how it works anymore

But isn't the Jackal a sidegrade of the stealth spinfusor?
Wouldn't call it sidegrade, 1500 burst damage is bit too much for light class, if you ask me. I find it better indoors, spinfusor might be better outside.
[QUOTE=lapsus_;35807790]But isn't the Jackal a sidegrade of the stealth spinfusor?[/QUOTE]
It's more of a "make every tech mad"-weapon.
the jackal and rhino smg aren't op, but the stealth spinfusor is UP.
I thought everyone agreed the Jackal was UP after the next day patch?
[QUOTE=Niklas;35807859]the jackal and rhino smg aren't op, but the stealth spinfusor is UP.[/QUOTE]
The stealth spinfuser is fine, you even have a decreased cloaking time after firing it
I really don't like how the jackal does everything the spinfuser does but with the addition of being able to splash people mid air, they just need to make it take longer to arm and then buff the damage a tad so it's more of a trap weapon than a jack of all trades wonderweapon

After testing Jackal no.
Rhino SMG is fine. You need to have a different sensitivity with aiming... takes a while but when you'll get it , you'll feel soo good.
Mastering it to the max will allow you to have 36 bullets in one mag. Thats A LOT comparing to other fire-weapons like Soldier Rifle , Engineer SMG , Raider Assault Rifle.
Just started playing this again since closed beta.
When I logged in I wasn't VIP and I didn't have my gold or XP.
I understand wiping ranks and stuff but I thought I would at least have the stuff I payed $10 for.
[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;35805731]I swapped out my fractals for stickies
am I a bad person[/QUOTE]
How you dare, there is nothing more fun to wathc a full group of idiots trying to run away from the party.
Intead, the stickies are "DUDE DO YOU WANT A HUG!?" and bam you blow yourself.

Yes, absolutely. I didn't knew the damage output was 1500. But that's when stickied, isn't it?
I fell on a jackaltrap a minute ago and it took 1300 hp away from me.
But then again, a stealth spinfusor direct hit should be around 550, 1/3 of a jackal one. hmm.

Is something I call the "fat hug of death" You sticky one single sticky in the fatty back and he turns arround to give you a hug and he kills you with his lard :v:
What do I have to do to make a Steam shortcut to T:A?
[QUOTE=The golden;35800870]It's a extremely arcade-y FPS with painfully generic gamemodes, very loose class roles, very little base assets, and a increasingly disturbing free2play model which results in horrific imbalance.
It has decent gunplay and movement system. I would say the game is average, but not AWESOME. It has a long way to go before I can ever consider it worthy of bearing the Tribes badge.
Trust me. The novelty factor wears of fast.[/QUOTE]
nobody cares what you think especially that dude
[QUOTE=JoeSibilant;35810424]What do I have to do to make a Steam shortcut to T:A?[/QUOTE]
Steam -> Add non steam game -> Browse for the shortcut you normally use to open the TA launcher
Works with varying degrees of success. For some people I know it worked, others not
Somebody vandaled the FP team's doc sheet, rolled back.
If I get the $29 pack It would be better to spend the gold in the 90 day booster or in weapons?
mix it up. it's what I did, just never buy any weapons that are above 400 gold - Seriously, don't.
What I can never wrap my head around is the jammer pack.
Get hit while wearing cloak pack?
Well, you're dead.
Get hit while wearing jammer pack?
Doesn't matter, the turrets still act like fuck all is happening.
And the jammer pack can apply the effect to others.
it just seems a bit silly

Don't you get a free booster with a 29$ purchase?
[QUOTE=lapsus_;35812344]Don't you get a free booster with a 29$ purchase?[/QUOTE]
Yes, but I think that with a 90 day booster plus the 30 day booster included in the pack I will be able to get enough xp to spend it on the 100k weapons and not use gold
I should make more gifs :v:

Not really, people can still "see" you while jamming and spot you, you can't spot or see cloaked infs
Also
Every damn time i use the shield pack I feel like the jammer pack would be a lot more useful in the situation I find myself, and vice versa
