Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
Yea I am. I'm halfway curious what it is doing so I think I'll use this as an excuse to get xperf going.
I'm also still having big problems with hit detection. I really wish they would spend the time and fix it. I've started using a smg with an extended magazine just to try to "make sure" that when I empty an entire clip into someone's back at point blank it actually kills them.

So oddly, I loaded it up with xperf running a circular buffer, and the freezups ever happened. I also could actually kill people by shooting them. I got my usual slowdown during big battles but that is just because my machine is old.
I still think the hit detection problem is one that gets worse over time.
I am looking at a trace from a big battle on Indar, but my third world internet is going to be hours downloading the symbols. It looks like there are around 20 threads going and disc activity is really high, so I'm guessing those are mostly worker threads trying to load up people's custom decals and whatnot.
I don't see anything related to steam yet. Does the overlay cause some kind of fps drop?

I wish the other directive weapons had fun gimmicks like that. Not being caught off guard via reloading is quite an awesome perk. The only tradeoff is what, lack of a foregrip I think?
What OP builds do people run with and have fun?
For infantry, I've been having a blast close range sniping with the TSAR on TR. Get in the right spot in the right battle (center column or bio lab roofs; Support struts outside tower fights) and the headshots just fly in. It costs like 3000 certs or something stupid to max out the motion sensor, but that pulls in a lot of certs and helps out your team immensly. I'm sure someone here has a perfect HA build, but I hardly ever play that class. Just feels cheesy.
For ESFs, Airhammer(with thermals) + racer frame + maxxed out Afterburners makes for awesome fun strafing runs as you one shot infantry out of nowhere. With the racer frame + reaver afterburner, you can catch up to ANY ESF and finish them off, or run away from any skyknights out there. (it's only an 'OK' build against ESFs)

I'm actually having slowdown issues since I got back from Wisconsin, I can't seem to kill anyone and I'm getting some kind of lag.
I think almost any HA build is OP as shit. They've finally brought in more items to fuck maxes up now so I can deal with one OP class. I think the NS-7 PDW + HA is pretty much god mode in CQC.
Only downside to the Beetlegeuse is if you push it too far it overheats then you will get ass-rammed if you're not careful.

There is definitely an issue, be it hit detection or enemies not rendering. It still happens on the non steam version but it's not nearly as often.

CQC sniper infiltrators are fucking god mode now if you can get a head shot, you will basically kill them before you even de-cloak on their screen. Infiltrators are now a serious threat after this patch. Hard to get used to that after almost 3 years of shooting them 100 meters out while cloaked.

Was raping this weekend, even saw Regime get noob raped by grenade spam, haha.
I think the issue I was having with infiltrators is dependent on ping, mainly those Korean fuckers that have invaded Connery recently.
I also got accused of hacking yesterday for all my shots hitting a guy in the head. I was rocking a monstrous 1.3 KDR at the time.

Edit: can we get a /intesifies wrap like Quote and Spoiler? People were bitching about VS in a thread and saw this.NSGDX1 comments on People who think VS are overpowered, why do you think that?
Possibly the only good thing to come from Reddit.
