The big problem for me it's the lag / teleportation (unplayable). And the scoreboard say me i have a good ping (seriously?!). And PVE was just unplayable sometimes with very big teleportations and lag. Many things are broken in this patch. :/ The game will be launched and no customization for the Space Marines ? Where are the objects of the Founders ? All these armor that we had to have ? The Shield still has no texture, logo, badge.
But surely, our ever reliable development team, in their infinite wisdom, praised be their names, are hard at work to make everything great in 9 days! Its not like the servers run so badly with the tiny community we have now that any large influx of new players will probably destroy their fragile systems right? They've given us so many reasons to just have faith in them, like when they gave the attackers on Maggon two quadguns to attack the spawn at A with, since that map is too hard for us simple folk. Or adding those great extra capture points to Zedek that nobody on an attacking team has ever seen in person. I can tell this will be an absolutely amazing launch. Not frantically slapped together to meet deadlines at all.
Cant argue with you there, the patterns have been here since the very beginning. Its gonna be a rough launch. Hopefully they'll pull it together by the 23rd.
Aye, I used 10k RTC to get the plasma cannon, I should have stayed with the default heavy bolter. It' does about 3x the dmg to vehicles, due to the rate of fire, compared to the plasma cannon. It seriously needs its damage vs vehicles to be decreased by about 50-60% and then adjusted from there. Removing the bonus damage for a headshot with it would help a lot as well. Personally the only weapons that should deal extra damage for head shots should be sniper weapons and perhaps bolt and Shuriken pistols. Military units are not trained to shoot for the head, instead they are taught to shoot center mass on their targets, even snipers are taught this way honestly. Eldar are entirely to fast, just as durable as a Space Marine with a much smaller hit box as well. The Shuriken weapons shoot extremely fast, has very long range, and very little spread or recoil and makes extremely easy sniping weapons. All most as good a sniper rifle as the heavy bolter in fact. For a weapon that fires multiple projectiles it needs to be adjusted some. Perhaps a rate of fire and range reduction if you cannot get its projectiles to continue to spread. It is more like a rifle firing with no recoil that fires on full auto with a small spread at extreme range. Melee needs some limitations. It does entirely to much damage against tactical classes, I would leave the damage against Devastator and Melee classes the same though, as they are a counter for them. I am so tired of watching the defense maps where most if not all of the defenders are a combination of melee and heavy bolters.
I agree with everything except melee. It goes in good direction but dbash spam is extremely painfull.
Hm...So how do we assult Harkus now??Do we have to reroll eldar to have a chance to win as attackers or just hope for Ork defenders?
Not impossible,and it has been done before but its a tactic that seems to work with guilds only( at least that is experience).I would guess attacking harkus now feels almost like attacking zaddek.
The best match as a n attacker I had there today we destroyed all the gates and still could not get inside the keep against the Orks due to the heavy bolters and the last 1-2 quad cannons. Those cannons are running some serious aim bot programs and need to be banned for it. I am certain there are videos out there proving it. Some changes to those cannons would be a great idea, such as lowering their rate of fire and range and the total health or armor value and toughness. Watched one destroy 2 predators that were firing on it as fast as they could. They didn't last very long. Perhaps there should be a method for the attackers to disable them from outside the keep, thus forcing the defenders to not keep everyone on the wall using a heavy bolter and lascannon.
