an accurate representation of the state of the game

Why are pump shotguns simultaneously so fun and yet so awful?

fix ur serverz u cuntz

>>134918942

Because after forcing yourself to get better at aiming and getting the most out of all your weapons you're suddenly faced with this weapon that is worthless outside ___ distance but absolutely rapes within that range.

There's lots of fun killing people at close range but none fun you get from headshotting some faggot with a hailstorm from 50m

>>134919860
I'd say thats about right. Then you run into a lolshield HA, pump three rounds into his back and die.

How would you all feel if all weapons aside from LMGs and SMGs could fit two rail slots?

Alright so, is it just me, or are the VS actually faggier than the other two factions? This may just be my bias, but it seems to me like the VS always have more infiltrators, cloaked flashes, those retards that farm 1-12 fights with bulldog galaxies, and more ESF's, constantly.

Which outside of the VS one would do nothing that harassers don't already do. I want my thresher probably more than anyone, but they are going to have to come up with some clear defined roles for it. And the only things I can think of really would be to have them act more like IFV's and not buggies. Which this game totally needs IFV's.

And if you're going to make them act like IFV's you may as well just bring the deliverer back and save yourself the trouble of making 3 different vehicles. Which is exactly what they would do.

If we are to get new vehicles at all (unlikely), they're almost certainly going to be NS. It's just much easier to do, work wise.

Yeah like other anon's said, you may as well give up on getting new ES stuff. If we do get any new shit it's going to be NS. Hell, just doing ES guns seems to be a huge undertaking for them.

'Love' is making a shot to the knees of a target 500 meters away using a Railjack with a 12x scope.

This definition, I am told, is subject to interpretation. Obviously, 'love' is a matter of odds. Not many shitters could make such a shot, and strangely enough, not many shitters would derive love from it.

Yet for me, love is knowing your target, putting them in your targeting reticle, and together, achieving a singular purpose... against statistically long odds.

i wish i'd play on the same server as him

>>134944936
Someone told me he was at that base, so I pulled my mauler (which I had never even used until that point) to kill him. I got him twice. I sent him two tells thanking him for the free shotgun. I wish he no-lifed. I have half a mind to try to get an aurax on the mauler with mostly Wrel kills.

So I posted on a few threads back about how I used to pull 4kdrs and now Im lucky to pull 2s.

It's because of zerging and playing too aggressively. I go to the 96+ fights that Recursion is zerging. I shouldn't be. Or, I shouldn't be on the front lines.

I'm slowly recovering my kdr back to where it was, but it is a little frustrating ;-;. Though it's nice to see the pop is holding somewhat steady.

>ES deliverer variant
Well considering that ES deliverer variants in PS1 were just deliverers with ES weapons (sans the Raider which was just a deliverer with four guns), that shouldn't be all that hard to do

I wanna get a good sidearm for my TR Engi (even if i dont even use the damn sidearms).

I feel i should get something on the BRRRRRRT side of things, so im deciding between T4 AMP and the NS-61 Emmisary.

The Emmisary certainly looks prettier, but the AMP seem to shit out more bullets.
Which one would you recommend /ps2g/?

Well its meant to be played with even pop, but all the dirty tricks (but not exploits) you can find.

>>134955773
Inquisitor anon. Now it has a 2-shot burst it is a diamond in the rough overlooked by most.

As long as you can get the first 2x bursts into the head of your enemy you have them dead to rights.....unless it's a medikit chugging [FOG] HA then you're fucked.

>>134958204
Close to 3k hours, rarely have I seen grenades not behave predictably. The grenade physics is quite simple, if it doesn't go where you want it to, you need to practice. If you still insist you've seen it go where it didn't, you might wanna get your eyes checked, grenades aren't C4.

>>134959151
Grenade markers have been fucked since the last update. Some linger, some are duds, some are completely somewhere else from the actual grenade. Things are acting weird on the server level.

>>134959151
Considering it was next to the wall it would have been one impressive trick shot. If someone ran in front of me or it bounced off the wall it would have went over the railing of the mesa.

>>134959854
The markers are a joke, true, but the grenades themselves aren't very glitchy.

>>134960087
They do have a tendency to linger and phase through things as well, oddly. At least on my end.

Why are there so many youtube videos of shitters running into the stream of bullets of the guy recording without seeking cover or shooting back? I NEVER see that degree of bad play while playing.

I want to have a K/D of 10 too. ;_;

>>134960570
You don't asymmetrically throttle your connection

>>134959721
If you're fairly confident with getting headshots I'd go for the Inquisitor. Although if you just want a quick panic finisher for your engi take the T4 AMP.

The Inquisitor will give you a lot more range over the AMP and it's a great Stalker sidearm also. Test them out again in VR before you make up your mind and try them both at range

>>134960721
I torrent a lot of anime, but that doesn't seem to help it.

TR SMGs are fine, but in general you want to use a carbine because the SMG has a larger damage dropoff. But apparently because the NC Cyclone is almost as good as the NS-7 everything TR has is shit.

>>134968734
It's a meme at this point, TR is horribly underpowered, etc. Some retards actually take it seriously.
And, FYI, Lynx is close range. Lotsa boolets if that's what you're after, but it's comparatively bad (still nowhere near bad enough to be unusable)

>>134968980
You're a dumb cunt.

I feel so dirty using the NS-15. Such a notorious gun used by lag shitters and MLG tryhards. But the autisim compels me to aurax all the LMGs.

And yet I feel I should stay true to my faction and never touch such filthy weapons used by the others.

I am so conflicted

>>134973650
Construction will be the end of this game. DBG are creatively bankrupt. They don't know what they're doing anymore and just want to find ways to make more cash off this game with as little effort as possible.

Holy shit why does T1 Cycler sound so good
I just went on my long-forgotten TR alt and was amazed by the "fuck yeah, now this is a gun" feeling it gave me.

Nano-Regen device or Regen field?
which produces more shekels for me?

>>134976002

If you spot somebody before shooting you're shouting "I SEE YOU AND AM ABOUT TO SHOOT YOU"

Please spot when it makes sense.

>>134984145
I still find it much easier to hit a scythe than a mosquito.

Probably because scythes are wide and mostly flat and mosquitos are thin and have that annoying curve on the back

>>134984296
You can bait people with callouts sometimes and get off scot-free if you're holding a good angle. But yeah, calling out generally best to do only when they escape an ambush, not immediately before or during.

What should I use with the TORQ, Forward grip and comp or Laserpointer and suppressor?
Any Ammunition?

And is there any up-to-date weapons chart? the ps2.dynet.com isnt working

>>134980067
Max your medic gun for revives, this is important. Wear flak armor.

Throw up the shield bubble. Enemies throw grenades into the shield bubble. Your friendlies die, you revive them, repeat.

Does any faction have an equivalent to the Carnage?
All those attachements, super versatile AND 0.75 Move speed multiplier

>>134984506
A mosquito is hotdog shaped.
A scythe is a belt buckle.
A reaver is a barn.

>>134987308

No, he means putting the deployment method back to how it was until a few months after launch; deploying them would be the same as beacons or motion dildos or turrets.

Which is to say, of course, slow to deploy and finicky, and no more tossing them from the back of harassers or out of valkyries or off cliffs etc.

>>134987308
Carnage ain't really that great, it has the highest horizontal recoil from all ARs in the game, and even with advanced foregrip it jiggles more than TR guns. On the other hand it has almost no vertical recoil. NC high rpm guns are really weird.

>>134994825
Its to punish the NC for using fascist bullets.

>>135002670
The difference in accuracy in favour of the SABR is twice as big as the difference in favour of the T1B

>>135004652
the difference in FSRM alone makes the T1B tenfold more accurate than the SABR

>>135002062
>i posted it again!!!!

>>135005225
Doesn't the SABR have a FSRM below zero?

Seriously though, when will we get an up-to-date in-depth weapon stats page? ps2.dynet.com is broken

>>135005389
SABR have a FSRM of 1

http://planetstats.net/data/weapons/

>>135005668
They NERFED it? Man I havent been here in a long time. Seriously though, it originally had a FSRM of 0.75

Ok, this explains why I suck ass witrh it ever since coming back

>>135006048
fuck if I know, I remember it having 0.75 FSRM too, but those stats are allegedly pulled straight from the API so it should be somewhat correct

>>135006048
Pretty sure it got nerfed when the other burst weapons got buffed.

how? I played on PTS for 3 hours today and there is nothing enjoyable in ANTs, mining is boring, and the vehicle itself is not comfy at all

If you check the stats you'll see that in order to get A or above with TR in regards to ivi, acc, or hsr, it is always lower than VS or NC. Now either everyone in TR are awful players who somehow manages to win alerts, or that TR guns are objectively harder to control

Burstweapons should be the standard weapon with a higher skillceiling, not the better version of the DMR.
From Standard to burst variant the following changes should be made:
>reduce FSRM to 1 or below
>tighten initial spread
>increase CoF bloom
>maybe make recoil less predictable
>improve recoil recovery
>give all ammunition options
This way the burst must be well aimed in order to properly hit.

BTW, does COF bloom have a recovery time too or is it instantaneous?

>>135011397
COF bloom is 20 degrees per second after a delay equal to refire rate.

I get that, but redeployside is terrible.
I joined some random platoon once, and they were fighting two battles on opposite sides of our territory.
It was constant

>we won, redeploy to base B
>they're back at base A, redeploy
>we won, go back to base B
And they kicked people who weren't redeploying constantly

>>135044190
Let me tell you, redeployside, as awful as it can be on the logistics side of gameplay, is still more fun than the alternative.

I play with an outfit who follow basically a no-redeploy policy. You spend literally 90% of your time organizing and traveling.

Yesterday I had 18 kills in two hours of playtime with them.

>>135044846
How can they spend that much time moving?
Usually if there are a lot of people, vehicles fill instantly when the base is capped

I don't want to knock the guys I play with, but they are gluttons for punishment. And they never. Fucking. Learn. These point drops are literal suicide missions every time they're done, because the guys leading the squads think an 8-12 man team can take an entire base by themselves, somehow. (There is always the inevitable, "well, we were hoping blues would show up and help"

It drives me crazy.
