Doombringer is OP as hell when you can aim.
[QUOTE=Second-gear-of-mgear;34315425]With the assault rifle, we're literally useless against heavies.[/QUOTE] Are you serious? I rape heavies with assault rifle. They are so easy to hit as 90% of them move so slowly and as you know, a slow target is a dead target.
[QUOTE=Niklas;34320981]Doombringer is OP as hell when you can aim.[/QUOTE] Doombringer is great if you suck IMO. I mean look at it - the perfect setup for people who can't aim and can't go fast :v:
[QUOTE=Saber15;34318983]Scrambler is [I]really[/I] shit unless you have godlike aim. You need 3 direct hits with the ARX to get a kill, and the ARX has 3 shots per magazine. The Sparrow pistol is a bad joke.[/QUOTE] I got Scrambler earlier, I love him. Topping the scores every day
Got the beta, but the game crashes everytime I try to play :(

[QUOTE=MightyHaku;34322163]Are you serious? I rape heavies with assault rifle. They are so easy to hit as 90% of them move so slowly and as you know, a slow target is a dead target.[/QUOTE] Yeah, but the thumper is much more effective. Especially in closed in areas.
[QUOTE=Mingebox;34317966]Why does that .gif look smoother than how my game runs :smith:.[/QUOTE] It was recorded at 60 frames and the gif is at 50 frames. Also is there anything wrong with the thumper? I keep getting people raging about it in game.
[QUOTE=MadBomber;34328748]It was recorded at 60 frames and the gif is at 50 frames. Also is there anything wrong with the thumper? I keep getting people raging about it in game.[/QUOTE] It's more of a ranger issue, the ranger has a automatic gun and a spinfuser-like weapon, which no other loadout has. The next update is going to be a big update, it's been almost 3 weeks since the last update and hi-rez has been hinting at more class customization and new maps, but who knows.
[QUOTE=MadBomber;34328748]It was recorded at 60 frames and the gif is at 50 frames. Also is there anything wrong with the thumper? I keep getting people raging about it in game.[/QUOTE] Some people seem to believe that it is overpowered, in that it is better than the spinfusor. Many are also not aware that it took a damage nerf in the last patch.
[QUOTE=The golden;34332975]I would say the Nova colta is overpowered. Simply because it does high amounts of damage and is (correct me if I'm wrong) a hitscan weapon. (Or the projectiles travel insanely fast). The sniper should be a long-range support class who can be bested by close range classes who should have superiority at shorter ranges. But the sniper has the nova which means any one with half a brain can dish out insane amounts of damage at close ranges. That's not the snipers job.[/QUOTE] Nova colt is projectile and doesn't even go that fast. Sentinel needs a way to defend himself up close too.

Have you even tried the nova colt? It's powerful but slow-firing and unforgiving. You'll find you own the 'half a brain' snipers up close because they can't aim the colt for shit - it's only those who are relatively skilled with it who can master its projectile's speed and accuracy. Also I don't think any class should just have some condition where it's totally helpless - that's like saying the technician shouldn't have a gun because the class is about turrets.

[QUOTE=PT-Desu;34333827]Oh god please let it be true D: and i would love to see more Tribes 2 maps making an appearance.[/QUOTE] I doubt it will be like Tribes 2, but hopefully a step to make gameplay for your loadout a bit more flexible. I hope it isn't just customizable armor or something.

they've explained it tons of times they've said before they would probably have something like the tf2 style loadout customization
I suspect they try something similar to TF2's customization, where the customization still leaves your class clearly what it was intended to be. Dammit ninjed
[QUOTE=Crazy_Farmer;34334995]they've explained it tons of times they've said before they would probably have something like the tf2 style loadout customization[/QUOTE] [Citation Needed] I would love a system like that, as long as they don't go overboard.

So what should I expect in this/any tips? I just got accepted into the closed beta for being in the World Of Tanks CB and have a Global Agenda account.

[QUOTE=Crazy_Farmer;34334995]they've explained it tons of times they've said before they would probably have something like the tf2 style loadout customization[/QUOTE] That'd be nice, I'd love to see everyone looking a little more unique, or having different loadouts within the basic role of the class.
Does anyone know of another way to squeeze more FPS out of this game? I'm running it on my laptop with an i5 and GeForce 540M and I only manage to get a 20 fps or something. I even use a low quality config.
Got three blue plates in one match, feels good man. [editline]22nd January 2012[/editline] Three air to air spinfuzer kills that is.
This game isn't on steam right?
[QUOTE=Kirbyfactor;34341945]This game isn't on steam right?[/QUOTE] Nope.
[QUOTE=Kirbyfactor;34341945]This game isn't on steam right?[/QUOTE] It probably will be in the future, seeing how Global Agenda is on steam.
