I assumed it would have a long reload time and crappy accuracy to balance it so I could make a heavy weapons character; more of a suppression weapon that knocks enemies aim and movement around for tighter teamwork in matches.

I've gotten the sword once as an ordinance drop, so it's there. Of course, I was killed immediately after, so I never got to use it Mostly though, I get the choice between plasma grenades, a needler and the sprint power up.

Hey just an fyi, if you have Mountain Dew or Doritos Double XP you want to gift to someone you have to have a Facebook account to do so. Lame...

In Reach it took the entire mag just to remove their shields but in this it owns. Creepy Goat posted:Ahhh this is annoying.

It absolutely shreds up close. Forget even winning an engagement if someone has one of those coming at you

For those of you playing, what's your favorite armor ability so far?

Donald Kimball posted:For those of you playing, what's your favorite armor ability so far? Thruster Pack It's really really useful if you're taking fire and need to quickly dodge behind some rocks. It's especially handy if a grenade lands at your feet and you won't be able to sprint away in time. I've hardly seen anyone actually using their armour abilities. The odd hologram and even less frequently the camouflage (used by the guy who crouch walks everywhere then just gets killed because he was dumb)

How do you watch the domain terminal stuff? The game tells you to watch them on Waypoint after finding them in the campaign, but waypoint seems to have nothing.

Say you don't have any skinned weapons and someone else does, if you pick up their weapon then is it skinned on your side?

Napolean Bonerfarts posted:Say you don't have any skinned weapons and someone else does, if you pick up their weapon then is it skinned on your side? It should be, that's how it works in most games since the game rendered these skins anyway so you can see them when they run by holding their gun.

I've heard that you can enter codes twice on separate dewxp accounts. Is this true? If it is, I'll post the 16 12 match codes I got.

The first 2 are from Mountain Dew 24 packs, so its unlikely that someone else has already used the codes. The first two did not work. The next 10 or so after that did, then the rest came back already used (presumably from someone else in the thread). I'd guess that the doritos codes can be used twice due to being on the outside of the package (good call on their part). I'll be gifting some of these matches to people in the coupons thread because I feel bad for taking so many of them at once.

Same here. I read up until Ghosts of Onyx and played Reach, but even then some of the stuff in Halsey's journal was unfamiliar.
