Yeah, I ended up with 2 spare AKs. Since they are giving out the top tier weapon, I wonder if new guns are in the works.

I got two AKs and two bonebreakers Guess I can trade the AK at some point if the market isn't ruined by this bug.

I was playing today in games where literally everyone had an AK. Kinda funny, but counterproductive, considering PWE seems to be desperate to make money on BLR now.

I imagine it's the PS2 school of thought where people will willingly pay for cosmetics without complaining but not equipment. Yes it's still incredibly silly, but maybe it actually has a higher conversion/turnover.

I still feel like a sucker for buying the pink camo when what I wanted was apparently the pink Hardsuit Pilot. I didn't know that it applied to regular non-hardsuit armor.

You can buy the weapon camo. You can't buy the body camo. Not that it matters because it's pretty underwhelming: For comparison:

I like that the Winged Skull tag is the one you get for the mid-tier reward because that's exactly the tag my last levelup chance pack spat out. Is the machine pistol a decent secondary?

Is the machine pistol a decent secondary? Depends on who you ask. I hate the thing and think it's trash but a lot of people love it. I think the recoil patch made it a lot less viable than the shotgun and revolver. You own it now, though, so give it a go and see what you think.

The extended mag is a must if you are going to use it though.

So just to make sure I have this right, a heavy primary weapon won't slow me down when I'm using a secondary, right? And vice versa? And melee weapons (that aren't the katana) use my base armor speed stat?

It does the same damage as the revolver per burst and can be spammed without losing accuracy. It greatly outranges the MP, but is in turn outranged by the revolver.

It's isn't a bad gun exactly, but I much prefer the MP or shotgun (or the snub, when I can kill someone who has one). I just chose the BFP because it has similar speed stats to the light pistol. Now I have a free MP, and I don't have to use the BFP again.

Yeah, I did that, but it just feels so gross. I can see using it for those who can't figure out how to track hours through the interwebs, but pimping it out just rubs me the wrong way.

There's an elegant fix for depot items spam: set the CP gain mutator to 25% (and optionally the starting CP to something like 200). I tried it a couple of times and it's great: you can't just camp a depot (node) constantly throwing explosives at anything that comes close then immediately refilling / healing, and you need to earn that airstrike or Swarm rocket. And the hardsuit is even harder to get, but on the plus side the enemy team won't have endless Stinger rockets with which to come at you, so you're potentially a lot more dangerous.

Had a couple good games with some goons tonight, though sadly no one in the server was raging. I'm DoctorFiesta in game. Despite my best efforts I did not manage to tag SwitchbladeKult with a Breech-loaded grenade. Next time, perhaps! I will speak to his effectiveness with the M4X, though, dude makes it work for 'im. Want to hurry up and get to forty so I can get some parts for the Snub-Nosed revolver. It's not particularly effective, no, but it lets me pretend I'm a cowboy and you just can't put a price tag on that.

The Jumpoff posted:So YOU were the guy with the Snub 260. I was hoping I could shoot you in the face when you had it out and take it for a spin. It's a weird gun. I haven't had much success ADS-ing with it because it seems to lower the fire rate (or maybe I have a tumor and I'm making that up, but it certainly handles differently) - so aiming I only do to get one, maybe two shots off on someone at medium range. Generally I prefer to hip fire it at close range, where it behaves somewhere between the regular Revolver and the Shotgun. It's got a fast enough fire rate that if you're hugging the other guy you can just unload, but if you pace your shots it's not too awful hard to land a few headshots in a row. Besides, "[player] shot [player2] dead +Snub260" Is probably my favorite kill notification to date.
