What's going on with all these new tribes fads? I mean they are funny, but they sort of remind me of other memes, only this one includes attaching a helmet to something going reasonably fast.
Almost to 100k - I want a Jugg weapon. Should I go with the LMG or the MIRV?
lmg if you want to be a rape machine

LMG gets rid of the heavy classes' one weakness: airborne enemies. So go with that.
CaH is one shitty gamemode. Fractals and jackal shots on every CP and artillery strikes falling on your head the whole time.
there should be a capture the generator gamemode

If the entire team consists of brutes and infiltrators, the match would be over in 5 seconds.
I'm undecisive as fuck so here's a little poll-
Prism Mines and a bunch of upgrades - funny
X1 LMG - dumb
Wait for next update (or try at least) - clock
I crossed out the Falcon because I like using Nova Blaster too much.

I have terrible aim with the LMG so I would go with the prism mines.

Not of you had multiple bases with their own separate generators and etc. Really they need to redo CaH maps with mini versions of ctf bases.

Because there's too much capturing and not enough holding

I think that the points should be capped at a minimum speed of ~75 sanics. It would be easier that way because then it wouldn't be heavies walking on the point and Brutes raving all over it. It'd be like a small scale flag stand that could have a HoP on it. Even if the speed thing becomes a problem when its on, say, Katabatic, you could always just Jetpack and drop onto the point. Or have a Pathfinder thrust over it.
TDM helps you learn to aim
Arena focuses on survival
I think that CaH should help you learn speed and teamwork.
And CTF brings it all together.
Isn't it wonderful when you enter a public match and everyone is complaining about how players on public servers do not have as much skill as competitive players?
I find it funny when they complain that this game wasn't balanced for comp play.
Comp play should be two teams just playing the game as is too see who's better at it, not some kind of different game-mode with limited weapons and stuff allowed so they can "prove they are more skilled than everyone else."

Not exactly.
A good example of why comp play has different balance to pub matches is the bxt1 rifle.
It's very rare to see a really good sniper in matchmaking, and most people who try sentinel complain that it is underpowered.
However, in the competitive scene there are a bunch of really pro sentinels who will snipe your face off from the other side of the map and it's really obvious from that standpoint that they are OP.

[QUOTE=Dragon;36106591]At comp play levels, the skill ceiling for some weapons are so fucking high that it just dominates the entire game and can create some seriously unfun/unfair matches[/QUOTE]

I guess that true, but games should never be balanced around tournament and professional play unless it was built with that in mind. Else you can ruin the game for the majority of the people who play it.
As for the Sents in normal play, The amount of times a Sent has stood still shooting at me and I've responded with a heavy spinfusor shot to the face is more often than i care to mention.
I'm a spinfusor soldier
joined a random arena match to train and get better with the rifle primary
get obliterated by other spinfusor soldiers
change back to the spinfusor within 2 minutes
The rifle is damn useful in midair, dogfights and to get rid of heavies. Wish I could aim better with it. Somebody has got any tips?
Nothing feels quite as good as raging Pathfinders into Doombringer after killing them with my Shrike over and over.
Had a great moment on Arx just now, their flag kept getting juggled around because I'd kill each carrier. Got 5 kills before the return.
When I play sent, I spend most of my time missing everyone by miles, and then the first person I kill with the flag calls me a hacker
it's like I'm missing so badly they cant even see me trying
When I play SEN I either dominate nearly everything that comes near our base and duel those who want to kill me, or I miss every shot and am rendered useless.
fuck smgs, I just bought the soldier handgun, holy fuck it is useful.
33-4 shrike defense, 11 flag returns, 1 cap game won in overtime.
I'm shakin.

I always end up (in my head) throwing my rifle angrily at the floor and going after heavies with the nova
buy wheel deal for 56 gp y/n?
[QUOTE=Clio;36108051]buy wheel deal for 56 gp y/n?[/QUOTE]
No
They are cheap XP wise
Do they have any plans to maybe possibly add the other Tribes at all?
rammed a grav cycle off a hill and into a shrike
best shrike kill ever
I really love the game, it's just that the items in the real money shop are way too overpriced. Not that I care much about it anyway, but I don't appreciate the attitude of milking money from players.
