Look, orkz are fun, but you've to come to accept that you'll always have an uphill struggle. You're playing the worst faction, and during a game there will be lots of situations and duels that you could have won if you weren't an ork, and across a game there will be many such instances playing out each adding to the total percentage change of winning. You've to outplay them, and while it can be infuriating at times, it's very rewarding when you defeat those with all the advantages like winning a firefight against a Plasma cannon or a melee fight with a JPA.
I guess another reason is that orks are just more balanced then the other factions When I face SM there is always a hail of plasma bubbles flying over the field CSM spam the autocannon Eldar... Hm Well I don't really see a pattern here When I play orks I always see lots of different weapons (maybe cause ork weapons are more obvious to identify?) I see lots of dakkaring weapons some with rokkits and some unorky beamy stuff My personal fav weapon is the rokkit loncha. Just had a nice game yesterday on a fortress map ( don't remember the name ) where I just rain Deff on the SM from the top no a wall And dat stupid umies didn't even notice where it's comin from!HEHAHA! However we still lost it but it was fun ^^ One of the best posts I ever read from a new guy ^^
Once you get an ammo mod and the heavy barrel for shootas they improve dramatically. Also once you unlock the double sticky bomb bundle and the rokkiy launcha you can solo destroy enemy transports and tanks pretty easily.
Indeed, I'm sure as soon as I unlock stuff the game will be more balanced. But this would explain the OP conclusion and weirdness of seeing scores like the top players with double digits on take downs while newbies struggle to get just 5 people down.
Also try and follow an experienced player around. If you watch what they do you will pick up some tricks for dealing with enemies. Good example: if you see a JPA about to slam you, run AT him. He will slam behind you, cc himself, and give you time to shoot him in the back. Then try to move in unpredictable patterns so when he bursts to close he ends up going the wrong way and extending the distance between you.
MY ADVICE FOR GAINING STUFF QUICK? BE A SCAVENGER, KILL DA GITZ OTHER BOYZ DOWN AND DONT BOTHER WITH FINISHING, PAY ATTENSHUN TO VEHGICLES AT LOW HEALTH SO YOU CAN FINISH THEM OFF, FOLLOW AT THE BACK END OF A GROUP AND DEAL WITH THE REMAINS OF VICIOUS FIGHTS, EXECUTE SURVIVING ENEMIES/RESCUE FALLEN ALLIES, THATS HOW YOU ADVANCE AT THE BEGINNING.
WOT EEE SAID IF YER GROTZ FOLLO DIS SIMPLE GUYDE DEN U KAN EXPECT MAX SKAVINGE UN ATLEAST 5000 SHINIEZ PUR BATTUL
I wouldnt use the melta bombs tbh. Too expensive. Two krak equivs and a rokkit or two is enough to do the job, and it is about as quick since you can start from further away. Plus now you have more points to play with so you can put better wargear on.
