Aye, well, they should throw the book at them too. They could hardly have been less equivocal on their position on this matter. Perhaps they need some sort of statement in-game to the effect of covering this, since not everyone reads the forums/watches the twitch streams. For those who do/have though, there's simply no excuse. I guess it's challenging to separate those who already know from those who don't without some sort of in-game statement you have to agree to. I'm definitely not arguing for people who legitimately don't know it's an exploit getting punished. So maybe you're right, a stern warning first of all, just to remind people that the devs are watching and do know who is responsible, then the banhammer for repeat offenders.
I aproove this post.... And also am having a lot of fun with the hypocrisy of some space marine players. When will the Plasma Canon nerf hit? Incoming Nerfs, marines, don't worry, you're about to get it...
Oh it seems someone cant get kills without HM or embolden stacking ...damn that butthurt is oozing through the screen .
I assure you, my dear, that I perform quite well on the battlefield so far. My previous message was sarcastic to constrast with Marines complaining "EldarOP". I won't deny Eldar WERE op at a point of time, but I don't think Eldars ARE currently OP. There are Cheesy tactics in each faction: roadkills, vehicles glitches, PC, Heavy Attack Spam, to not give exemples. Just a cheesy tactic EXISTING in a faction doesn't make it OP.
I'm a marine and I would love to see plasma nerfed. But in doing so there are other things that need nerfed. 1. Eldar vehicles, either less ram dmg or make them less maneuverable. It's dumb that can pivot without losing speed and kill with the slightest touch. 2. Ork weapon accuracy. They do FAR more dmg per shot and have a bigger ROF and and are just as accurate as the other races weapons. Orks already own in melee they are SUPPOSED to have weaker ranged. 3. Swooping hawks. They need a cd on flight or else a speed reduction. They shouldn't be able to drop in a window, fire off a clip fly out to the other side of a building and do it again in less time than it takes to regen armor. Plus exploits on ceiling junk being 1 way walls.
Im gonna have to disagree with you on some numbers here: Damage no, the shoota only does 28 compared to the bolters 38. Even the big shoota only does 26, down to 19 at longer ranges. But ROF yes, definitely. Shoota's 480 rpm > bolter's 333 rpm. big shoota 600 rpm so nearly double. The most notable exception i feel would be the Rodeo Shoota out of the loot boxes which is a regular shoota but matches the big shoota's ROF of 600 rpm. However, none of the ork guns can match the boltgun's accuracy and as far as i know, no ork or at least very few actually use scopes on their shootas. they are too inaccurate, requiring short controlled bursts or good handling to keep the shots on target (especially the rodeo shoota) ork range isnt weak or even supposed to be weak, just a different flavor.
1. Agreed, a roadkill should occure only if the victim is in the center of the vehicle trajectory, otherwise wounding the target, and a serpent could turn a bit slower. 2. Ork Weapons are accurate on first shot but have the most recoil in the game. It's fairly hard to aim while shooting with them... Not sure they need a nerf, tbh. 3. Hawks... if you shoot a flying hawk 3 times, he/she falls from the sky, and upon touching the ground, he/she will be like stunned for 2-3 sec. Enough to take him/her down. You encounter a flying hawk and have trouble shooting it? Well, take your smart pistol and shoot it down, no need to aim. With maximum 3 fuel (I use 2 and fuel regen), hawks have lower fuel capacity than Jump Assaults. What you are asking is basically have Hawks with 50% fuel regen (3 sec) but only 1 fuel storage. But then, hawks cannot stick to walls anymore... (I like sticking to walls). Hawks are mobile and strong, but there exist countermeasures to get rid of them. Speed reduction... I wouldn't mind. I agree on the fact Hawks sometimes move too fast. Just remember: A grounded Hawk is as good as dead.
Get with the times Galen that has been nerfed for a while now. I know its a bit hard to take time out of your busy posting schedule to check patch notes but they are there I promise.
