ZionestLord posted:what happened with AW, I played a little of it and had a lot of fun A lot of it is due to "disagreements" between Obsidian when they were actually developing it and My.com/Mail.ru. Obsidian wanted to make a game distinct from the World of Tanks formula and My.Com...didn't. So much so that they eventually started shoving Obsidian aside to make the game more of a cheap World of Tanks clone to the point the two games were practically indistinguishable from each other and then they just outright canceled the contract they had with Obsidian to take over development fully. Which, after they did, immediately put the game's development to a halt, only bothered updating it to add in new P2W premium tanks to sell to people and other general money-grubbing you see from the other military F2P games like War Thunder or World of Tanks/Warships/whatever and leaving the population to dry up completely. A state which the game is still in today, the only thing keeping it going is the Russian server and the fact they still buy stuff off the store. Though I haven't played them myself, the other "sort of" popular games that My.com owns like Warface and Skyforge pretty much suffer from the same issues. And considering My.com is already expecting people to drop $30-$50 to get a basic standard-issue camo pattern for both sides, WW3 looks like it's already gearing up for the same bullshit.

Only time I’ve been revived by a bot was when I was bleeding out in a stairwell near a second story flag. I think it only happened because the bot had to walk right passed me.

In a custom Portal game, is it possible to increase the number of tickets required to win Team Death Match? I.e. set it up so that I don't rotate maps when farming bots?

Is there some shooting gallery Portal map or something? I'd like to get a handle on the SWS with 8x scope. Because I can't hit loving poo poo, even if I'm spot on like those sniper elite type of compilation videos. it always slightly misses (--edit: In MP anyway).

The Wildcat with all unlocks is completely absurd. I was ready to dismiss the slow-firing heavier 57mm cannon but then I learned to aim and THEN I got the anti vehicle missiles.  You're easily the best anti vehicle option in the entire game with this kit. The anti-vehicle missiles are lock-on and seemingly have infinite range (  ). The missiles kill smaller vehicles in one salvo and really really hurt heavy tanks. Coupled with the fact that your main gun also really hurts all vehicles you can basically sit at range and delete all the enemy armor single-handedly. No tank stands even a small chance of winning a duel with me. They're gone in seconds.On top of all this the main gun kills infantry instantly if you hit them, which is about as hard as hitting things with a sniper rifle. Once you get that down you can really do some nasty work in this thing against both infantry and vehicles. The AV missiles have to be nerfed in the future so enjoy them while they last. The only reason I imagine why people aren't complaining about this already is because you need hundreds of kills in the thing before you unlock all of this together so I imagine most people don't have the equipment yet.

Discarded 64 player size on conquest is a loving terrible map. No cover around the ships, and navigating between the sector points is a pain with no easy route. Great map for snipers and nobody else. I just skip it when I see it pop up in matchmaking. 7 maps are going to get old fast. e: I will second the endorsement of the Wildcat, it’s definitely worth getting the unlocks for it. Great versatile vehicle. Space Jam fucked around with this message at 23:13 on Nov 24, 2021 |

i also like the wildcat but it's incredibly rare to have squad members or randoms hop in, so 90% of the time i end up using it solo i've played around with various loadouts but i think i've settled on this: 57mm cannon AA missiles (AT missiles are situational at best and every time I take them I miss the AA missiles) thermal smoke repair system minigun (good all-rounder with the benefit of easily destroying drones) 60mm flak (this is by far the best weapon pod. absolutely legendary) i usually sit back behind the front lines to rain death, otherwise i get c4'd before i can blink also, saw a comment somewhere that said you can press R on the main cannon to reload all shells at once. gotta try this

I have been grinding the MAV, because I believe it has the potential to be either a great vehicle or an irredeemably awful vehicle. My thoughts thus far on the MAV are that if the 60MM flak cannon or mortar are decent at shooting infantry the MAV will be the battle bus I've always wanted. If it doesn't and barring any weird  interaction it'll be pretty useless compared to grabbing any other piece of armor, probably so useless as to be an active detriment to someone taking an armor slot for it.edit: quote:We reduced the overall damage of the Minigun for all Land Vehicles, alongside bullet damage drop off now starting earlier ...why? It's already a really lovely weapon to use. Is this some attempt to further nerf the Hovercraft even though the minigun isn't the reason people will use it [survivability + tokyo drifting]?

If it doesn't and barring any weird the best thing about the MAV is that your team can spawn into it the 60mm flak is amazing by the way definitely use that i haven't unlocked much for the MAV since it's really hard to grind it solo, but if you have friends you should be able to get everything for it pretty easy

Start a solo game of breakthrough on the egypt farm map. Take the mav and drive over friendly AI. If you drive over them they will get in your car. switch to the second seat and switch to the anti-infantry chain gun and switch back to driver. if you don't your bot will use the anti-armor cannon and won't get much in the way of damage or kills. Park on a hill over looking the flag and go do something else. Check back in every five-ten minutes to move your mav to the next set of flags when it changes or to respawn a mav if the bots managed to hit you with enough rockets.

It’s loving infuriating if I’m in a gunner seat solo without a driver in a good defensive spot and a random pubbie will jump in and drive the vehicle to the most worthless spot possible. It boggles the loving mind.

Combat Pretzel posted:Yeah, the minigun is pretty bleh. Works mildly OK on stationary targets, if you're standing still, assuming hit registration doesn't gently caress with you, but as soon the vehicles are in motion, all the bumpiness, dear god. It works really well on straightaways or flat terrain (so the entire map!? lol) but as soon as you hit bumps it makes it impossible to aim. I wish they would add a little gimballing so the vehicle motion wouldn't throw off the turret so much.
