I didn't know the sticky's were doing 2x the damage, explains why I was dying to them so much.

I figured you were dying because you were pulling a Dennis Reynolds and eating cereal while playing.

I'm having sticky mouse problems. I try to aim and my mouse resists and then jumps a bit. If I go to VR training or something it usually doesn't do it because I'm more relaxed and don't smash down on the mouse with much force.

Maybe I need a mousepad.

Turn off mouse acceleration. Both in windows and ingame.

In Windows it's called Enhance Pointer Precision under mouse settings. Turn it off, it doesn't enhance shit.

In game it's just called Mouse Acceleration.

Turn the sensitivity ingame way down. Around 0.2 Tune your sensitivity on the mouse itself (assuming you have a gaming mouse)

I just learned the glory of LA+Shotgun.
Try ESF+Shotgun with thermals. In all but 96v96 fights it will:

lol!


I've only got two more Assault Rifles to go and I'm done with them, I hope the Auraxium weapon for the Medic owns. Also, the Pulsar VS1 is a fucking headshot machine!

On a side note, I couldn't sleep last night and ended up screwing around on NC (Emerald) and created an outfit this forum would be proud of. Mist and Gentlemen, I present to you [SWDK]

I'm not big on the idea of slow paladin fight style pvp but one shot kills are just not a good idea. I'd like the chance to react. Even if it is a slim chance.

Same on the guy coming out of stealth and shooting you in the back. You really don't have a chance. Even the suicidal ones that attack a big pack of enemies seem to pick me out of 20 people.

I've got lag problems so I'd likely never win these encounters anyway. I get killed alot from fire where I duck behind a barricade and the bullets come through the barricade and kill me anyway. Hit detection is client side for the person firing. But I don't feel so completely robbed when I die to normal infantry. I could have done things differently.

Hell aircraft are the cheapest no talent farm in the game and they don't bother me because I have a counter: Lock on rockets. I rarely kill them but I can at least make them go repair for 10 seconds.

I showed this to my son on PS4. I killed a half dozen guys and then handed the controller over to him.

He has only played Destiny and Borderlands for shooters. He was absolutely so terrible I had to leave the room. He finally got himself up to like BR11 and then switched to NC where he likes some assault rifle of theirs better.

Without the enemy being huge on his screen he was just walking by so many that I could see from a mile away. Cocky little bastard always told me he was better at Destiny PVP than I was. I sure showed him!!!!

I finally got my k/d over 1 after starting at a the huge deficit I had during the initial release. Feels fucking good. This game is really underrated but it does need some content. PS: Indar sucks unless someone wants to gun for my Harasser. I'm one of those people that actually likes Hossin. Light Assault 4 lyfe.

Infiltrators are usually pretty easy to pick apart if you have good situational awareness, graphics settings and lag can play a huge part in them becoming annoying as shit.

If you're in a pack of people all looking around one corner, just be the guy constantly looking the other direction, more times than not you will catch that LA or Infiltrator flanking to get a few kills. 90% of the players in this game do not understand flanking or just don't care.

I spent a good day on Sunday destroying VS with a shotgun on Emerald, I was hoping to run into Mist and blow a hole in her spandex. She must have been in the zerg on another map.

Roadmap shows to have a huge content patch in September, what it will be and/or contain is anyone's guess but it's supposedly their new complicated resource system. They are being kind of tight lipped about it but someone data-mined some of the assets on PTS and it showed some new colossus tanks as well as some kind of crystals you have to actually pick up for something. I hope it's good.

I'll try to hop on Emerald VS more, I need a running buddy. I just wish I had all the unlocks I had on Connery. Do we have any devs on here who can hook a bro up with a transfer?

Speaking of, here is a video showing all that I mentioned, including the giant new tank.



EDIT: And apparently new hover carriers.
