You can be as butthurt as you want to be about the fact that people would rather you not shit up our servers, but the sad reality is that you're shitting up our servers. There is a reason private game servers often autoban people for having shitty connections. I'm sorry you don't want to play on the ones they've provided for you, but my heart pumps piss for letting a subset of picky assholes ruin the game for people playing correctly.
[QUOTE=Xenocidebot;43480298] I'm sorry you don't want to play on the ones they've provided for you,[/QUOTE] I don't want to play on the ones provided for Europeans because I get ten thousand times worse lag and connectivity issues on them for some reason, yet get literally none on the US servers. The ping difference is usually quite small in my experience anyway, so you can't just automatically assume that [I]everyone[/I] not in the US is shitting up your game.

[QUOTE=Xenocidebot;43480298]whiny crap[/QUOTE] Just when I thought you were starting to become a good poster. You're acting like high latency is an instant "I win" button. Have you ever played with high latency? You die to shit you can't see far more often than you kill people who can't see you. It works both ways, except to you, it's as if [i]everyone else[/i] has high latency.
Playing with constant high ping is a disadvantage, not an advantage. I mean, you [I]can[/I] bend your ping to your will if you use something like a lag switch, but that won't help someone who already has a shit connection.
I live in Hong Kong and I can confirm that playing with shit ping is a bad thing at all times

Explosives not chain-exploding(AT mines) is a confirmed bug and they'll fix that. yay
On the topic of bad ping, on occasion I get every player in my area teleporting and high speeds. I have no idea why this is as I can usually get a decent connection. I just log off when it happens, or wait for it to subside. I'm in New Zealand and play on Connery. No problems most of the time apart from the usual Vanu bullshit CQB shit (NC I love you as its a fair battle). Just remember guise, it's not as bad as Battlefield 4 is, or ever will be.

I call it desyncing since it seems as if your client loses touch with server reality and just does whatever it can to resync, but failing.

[QUOTE=Gen. Crumpets;43487663]so engineers will be able to kill sundies with a couple tank mines again? fuck[/QUOTE] Well they always could, they just weren't able to detonate them with one grenade.
I wish they'd fix splash damage in VR already. I know it's not a huge priority, but it can't be that big of a bug to iron out. Then again, this is the company that let a bug causing engineer AI turrets to be totally unusable exist for almost nine months!

So that Trailer for 2014, was pretty good. Wish they used different kind of music or something, I'm getting tired of the over use of 'epic' instumental music for trailers.
If you don't like the epic music then watch any fan video, which inevitabley have yackety sax or something similar.
[QUOTE=munky91;43488749]If you don't like the epic music then watch any fan video, which inevitabley have yackety sax or something similar.[/QUOTE] I just realized, with access to that camera now available, we could totally do a Yackety Sax chase scene.
[QUOTE=Lambda 217;43488651]indeed, i wish to see if the mosquito's boom-boom minigun is worth getting[/QUOTE] I unlocked it a few weeks ago. It's got a crazy fast time-to-kill, but it's pretty inaccurate - you can't snipe with it like you can with the rocket pods. I've been having fun with it, and it's definitely a more viable choice now that the rotaries and the default guns have been nerfed against infantry.
[QUOTE=Lambda 217;43488651]indeed, i wish to see if the mosquito's boom-boom minigun is worth getting[/QUOTE] Banshee's pretty sweet, unfortunately you have to give up on being able to win a dogfight ever again It has a pretty bad accuracy but generally you can still kill anyone from a fair distance away without reloading
Just because of how the Reaver looks, I really want like an explosive shell minigun for the Reaver. Have the A-10's BURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR sound. Instead we got a shotgun cannon, for a plane.
I wish we got more interesting ESW's at the NC front. The shotguns are all fucking terrible I believe (I am not gonna spend my certs on testing them as they are broken in the VR due to splash damage being broken), and the enforcer is kinda ok but just a faster shooting halberd. I want actual railgun weapons like that tank cannon model that has been hanging around. [editline]10th January 2014[/editline] What about some railcannon for the reaver? It'd fire big, heavy damage slugs with a slow firerate. I don't know how effective it'd be though as this game leans a lot to high ROF weapons.
I'd rather it be a really short, quick firing explosive shell launcher or something. Forced strafing runs, it'd go great with the rocket pods.
I'd take literally anything, as long as it's not another fucking shotgun.
[QUOTE=Lambda 217;43488651]indeed, i wish to see if the mosquito's boom-boom minigun is worth getting[/QUOTE] Definately worth if you intend to farm ground peasants all day. You need to drive somewhat close but it's brutal and you can easily slaughter multiple people with one mag.

While fighting for The Crown on Matherson, I got warped inside of the crate next to me while using the guided launcher. So the Vanu of course always having server pop, steam rolled us back off the bridge. Except me, I was still in the box and I couldn't get hurt. So I shot a couple dudes, then re-deployed because there's really nothing else to do at that point.
