[QUOTE=Crimor;35709475]Mind posting your macros? :v:[/QUOTE] As a light: vgtg vgcs vgs (I am the great shazbot) vgtb vgcs vgs (is that the great shazbot?) vgcy vgs (you shazbot) vaf vgs (get the shazbot!) vdf vgs (defend our shazbot) Then I also do things like vgta vgs (aww, shazbot) vgtt vgca (that was AWESOME) :v: I can't actually post the macros since they're on my sidewinder x4 macro buttons

[QUOTE=Niklas;35707397]Also do something about the range, right now raider can clean a flag stand from any position with a clear line of sight, making juggernauts useless.[/QUOTE] its range is lower than spinfusors

Anyone wants to reffer me ? [editline]25th April 2012[/editline] Seriously, anyone wants to refer me ? I am very eager to play.

I have the plasma rifle and have had it used against me and I don't really think its op, as an arx raider I've really had no problems with disposing of plasma raiders and the plasma just makes it harder to destroy base assets, deployables and the gen.

Is there a custom FP server yet? :(

[QUOTE=DeeCeeTeeBee;35711902]Is there a custom FP server yet? :([/QUOTE] We should all pitch in for one [editline]25th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=The golden;35711897]And the fact that the splash damage is so big.

[QUOTE=The golden;35711897]And the fact that the splash damage is so big. And the fact that it does 500 damage. And the fact it can continuously pump out rounds at a high rate of fire. It can plow through lights like they're not even there.[/QUOTE] The splash damage is as big as the Spinfusor -on the ground- 500 damage -on a direct hit- which is why it needs to have the midair hitbox fixed, and only that. High rate of fire, just a characteristic of the weapon. Changing the size of the clip could help that and encourage more careful aim, but still, for now? Only the hitbox needs fixing. It "plows through lights" just like a Spinfusor or anything in this game does, the difference is the bug on the hitbox which makes midairs trivial, again, the only thing that needs fixing.

I've never met anyone calling the new weapons "OP", they just insist on calling me a hacker instead.

[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;35712343]I've never met anyone calling the new weapons "OP", they just insist on calling me a hacker instead.[/QUOTE] It's because of all those OP weapons you're using.

My opinion on the Plasma Rifle: The problem is not that it deals 500 damage, nerfing it would only make it useless against turrets/generator/sensor which were upgraded at least once while it would still be great against players. The problem is that its projectile is as big as a fat Juggernaut and hitting with it is piss easy, if it was reduced to the size of a spinfusor projectile then people would be missing much more often and bam, it's not OP anymore. If you take both projectile and damage from it on the other hand, it would be worse than Pathfinder's Spinfusor. And about other weapons, I think the Cluster Grenade is fine and the new smg seems like an upgrade, a boring one.

I find that the splash damage is to big too. As big as a spinfusor.

[QUOTE=SL128;35701429]game=200 product=10[/QUOTE] I put that on target, but I'm getting an "invalid command line" error Can someone post a screenshot of where I have to paste those commands?

Well, Managed to purchase the $20 pack by adding my MC Gift Card to PayPal and doing that. The Tribes site might of worked if they had a box to select what type of card you are using. Too bad I was $5 short of the $30 pack, I'm probaly going to spend all my gold on a booster that I would of got for free with $5 more. :/

Is miserable to fight back as fattie because the plasma will hit you matter what you do and the Raider can shield up so in the end he will win.

Is there a way to restrict weapons in custom servers? [editline]25th April 2012[/editline] Or at least tell people which weapons aren't allowed?

Someone else can't deploy anything? I can't set jammers, turrents and force fields. Alot of people in the server got the same problem.

[QUOTE==DarkStar=;35713670]Someone else can't deploy anything? I can't set jammers, turrents and force fields. Alot of people in the server got the same problem.[/QUOTE] Yeah lots of people were complaining yesterday of that problem too, in the server I was in

[QUOTE==DarkStar=;35713670]Someone else can't deploy anything? I can't set jammers, turrents and force fields. Alot of people in the server got the same problem.[/QUOTE] Go back to the ammo station, worked for me.

Its only advantage is the GIANT projectile hitbox which make it bad indoors because you can't shot around corners, but good for midairs. Its on par with most Raider weapons, which are fucking amazing compared to most gear heavies get. [img]http://ph-matt.dyndns.org/weapondamageimage.php?patch=12&object=1&w33=on&w34=on&w66=on[/img]

The problem with it is that it's so easy to hit with, the projectiles are the size of grav cycles.

[QUOTE=Raijin;35713990]Go back to the ammo station, worked for me.[/QUOTE] Why disagree? It's worked every time I encountered that bug. Can't place sentry --> Went to ammo station (not the call-in kind) --> Went back to place sentry --> It worked.

[QUOTE=Raijin;35713990]Go back to the ammo station, worked for me.[/QUOTE] I try everything: killing myself, going back to the supply deport, going back to the ammo station, waiting until the generator is down, pretty much everything. Even on training I can set up any deploy.

The difference is that plasma gun does damage on impact, not timer. It's quite easy to move away from grenades in close quarters, since they take so long to explode.

So ive had this game for a while now and wanted to try it out, but i have a bonafide box for a computer and cant play the game, i heard there is some configuration file or something that turns down the graphics a lot more than the game itself lets you, anyone can help me with that? i dont care if i end up fighting legos as long i go fast

That is a huge advantage. I've never seen raiders top servers so easily with 20+ midairs. It's definitely not on par with other raider weapons.

lol GG hi rez, we are firing shrikes. 1:15 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5gYql-3BcU[/media]

the plasma rifle should give out splatters instead of kills [editline]25th April 2012[/editline] you know you can make custom servers now right? someone should make a fp one, its only like 4000 gold for 90 days
