>>165995929

I feel like Gun Runner is generally a bad idea, considering you can already shoot while running (just not sprinting), wall-running, sliding, and jumping.

Not that it's necessarily terrible, just that it only ever helps you when sprinting on the ground, and even if you *are* doing that when you get in an engagement, there's nothing stopping you from just sliding or jumping anyway. It'll certainly be helpful in some situations, but I think that more ammo or a faster reload time are going to get you are lot more kills over all.

Just had the most hilarious back and forth with some tryhard player who had his teammates carry him then brag he was better when I was first by a mile all three matches. Finally we get paired on the last match and surprise surprise I have to carry his ass to victory and he's still trying to act like hot shit.

Used hemlok/sentry turret/tone to boot.

the fucking smart pistols. did every youtuber and twitch person suddenly make a smart pistol video? i cant be the only one noticing this right? nearly every game, at least one person has a smart pistol now, sometimes more than one.
it used to be a rare thing that would pop up every now and then, maybe 1 in 5 or 1 in 10 games. this is making me remember just how fucking stupid the weapon was in TF1 and making me question why they decided to readd it in any fashion. yeah salt mad whatever. i just want a little balance so i can play a grenadier weapon and get more than 20 points on attrition

Could be the builds, but I was playing not even super late where it's only turbo no lifers and meta whores and it was just me, wasn't even tired, was a nice game, didn't see a single Devotion, or Volt, and no one ran tone on either team it was actually fucking amazing.

wonder if smart core is going to get anymore nerfs?
>>
>>166012836
Why would Smart Core get nerfed. The Predator Cannon is Legion's only source of damage; his kit revolves around various tricks with it, but BRRRT is still his only weapon at the end of the day. Smart Core does its job: it allows Legion to fully suppress a lane/viewpoint with unerring accuracy for a few seconds, which allows his teammates to get in a better position.

>>166008183
Because the EVA-8 is a binary gun: either you're out of range and doing next to no damage, or your in range and immediately blow your target away. The gun only needs one good punch to kill you, so if you can close the gap reliably, you will always be in the EVA-8's optimum range, which is also its lethal range. There is no margin of error when dealing with someone coming at you with the EVA-8. There's a reason it (and the Mozambique) are S-tier according to FrothyOmen.

i dont think it will probably, but it was nerfed in the past and some people do complaim about it, thats why i wonder.
when you get down to it, all it is is an automatic aimbot with infinite ammo. it used to last longer and do more damage i believe. or the damage nerf might have been to the predator cannon in general, not just smart core, i forget.
its not legion's only source of damage by the way, hidden compartment allows you to deal some big damage very quickly

>>166009210
grenadier playstyle is similar but a bit different than that of shotguns. you dont neceessarily need to be close to your opponent, but you do need to know the movement system. you basically want to be above them at all times, or at the very least get the drop on them so you can get a shot off before they start firing at you.
the odds of winning a gunfight on even ground against an smg or other hitscan weapon are against you. its harder to aim splash damage and get direct hits when youre getting shot at on a flat surface.
if you dont like playing shotguns and getting in the opponents face, you dont have to. you should still learn the movement system though, learn how to traverse maps fast and find escape routes and such. learning to slidehop will help you a lot too, even if you learn just the basics of it.

>Any kind of tier in any game without realism

>>166008183
One of the two weapon archetypes that qualify as noob tubes.
The only skill involved is closing the gap, but it requires less skill than melee or an SMG (yes, killing with hitscan is more impressive than shotties)
At least in Titanfall the grenadiers (noob tube qualified weapon scheme number two) have a more difficult time leading shots.

>Why do people get angry at this gun again?
Because you made a logical choice of maximum firepower at close range, something people do irl but not in games, instead of making the illogical choice to gimp yourself in an attempt to have more fun or increase the challenge.
The rest of us just don't respect your clicking/shotty skill alone. We want to have fun running around in extended gunfights that require new tactics and innovation, win or lose. Coming around a corner and getting an instant kill when your crosshair lights up is less fun for everyone else. More power to you if you enjoy your 5m comfort zone, I guess.

>>
>>166013595
phase shift is always a good ability for pretty much any build. it has more uses than a panic button. you can use it to close the distance to the enemy for instance, making it easier to get in firing range.
holopilot can always work, though that relies on your enemies making mistakes, and they probably will since so few people use it. that is starting to change a little bit though; i used to see zero holopilots, now ill see one in every 5 games or so, sometimes more. still, its effective and more importantly, fun.
>>

>At least in Titanfall the grenadiers (noob tube qualified weapon scheme number two) have a more difficult time leading shot
since when are grenadier weapons "noob tubes"? do you know how difficult it is to use them effectively against a good player running a normal(SMG or other hitscan) build? you might see funny webms of people getting blown up by grenadier weapons here, but thats usually because the enemies in said webms are not good players.
maybe i misunderstand what "noob tube" means, but calling grenadiers that while clearly overpowered guns like the devotion and the volt are everywhere and used all the time is kinda dumb.
>>
>>166014478
He thinks "noob tubes" are one-hit kill weapons. In reality, a noob tube is a gun that instantly grants the maximum reward (a kill) for the minimum effort (one trigger pull, with no additional need to aim). The AWP in Counter-Strike is the perennial "noob tube."

Grenadiers can't be noob tubes because they're the hardest weapon class to use in the game.
>>
>>166014478
>since when are grenadier weapons "noob tubes"?
Since Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare.
>do you know how difficult it is to use them effectively against a good player running a normal(SMG or other hitscan) build?
Yes, I run softball and go fast.
This is why it's more impressive than shotgunfags in Titanfall with their hitscan and effectively zero ttk at lethal range.
>"noob tube"
Is anything that removes the element of continuous aiming while attempting to down a target.
e.g.
turn corner
fire once
enemy dead without opportunity for recourse

>Is anything that removes the element of continuous aiming while attempting to down a target.
>e.g.
>turn corner

>enemy dead without opportunity for recourse
you may also blow yourself up if they are that close that you can fire and get a direct hit before they can gun you down with the ridiculously low ttk this game has. a situation like that is rarely ever going to happen unless maybe you are running the SMR anyway.
you play the softball so you should know that being above your opponents is important and helps a lot. how many times have you been wallrunning and "turned a corner" to 1 shot someone with the softball?
>>
>>166014957
Not much in Titanfall.
Grenadier weapons are usually noob tubes in other games with slows. They don't really qualify in this game. They are worth mentioning, though.
>>
>>166015086
Exactly. Grenadiers are actually rather unreliable in Titanfall precisely because everyone is so stupidly fast and mobile.
>>
>>166015051
>you may also blow yourself up if they are that close
Only with explosives, which was not what the original post was focused on.
You're focusing too much on "noob tube qualified weapon scheme number two" which really only applies to games like Ghost Recon or Call of Duty 4.
Slow games.
>>
>>166015172
It was my mistake for not clarifying my position on The Lords gift to man that is Going Fast with Softball.

One of the only guns I would truly call a "noob tube" in this game is Tone's 40mm, for obvious reasons.

>>166015172
Really ? I have the opposite issue - I can deal with fellow fasts by shooting where they're going to be. I have issues with slows because while I'm using a Softball and going fast they're on a roof outside of my range ADSing me with hitscan automatic weapon unless I go all around them.
>>
>>166017512
That's a problem with hitscan ttk
>>
>>166017674
Well, I can always sneak around them, what makes direct firefights with a Softball the hardest is the delays between the stick and the explosion. You can nail the killing shot but the opponent has that second or a half to gun you down before he explodes. I wish they would remove it
>>
>>166018234
>make softball even stronger
mate you cant be serious its already stupid strong compared to other grenadiers
>>
So which Titan is "best" for the assault chip ? Note that the best part is obviously in quotation marks since obviously they're not going to win the match for you. My thoughts at the moment are:

>Ronin: good anti-pilot/bots gun, can dodge but little health
>Ion: 360 degree defensive skill to nullify damage, ok weapon and health
>Tone: ok weapon and health, not sure how good the AI is with locks and rockets, directional defensive ability it can waste
>Legion: only hitscan weapon but won't do good if it has to follow you around the map
>Scorch: good health but limited range
>Northstar: unless it's 100% accurate it's dead on arrival

I want to around with my buddy watching my back killing some AI while I take care of enemy Titans.
>>
>>166018627
I'm not asking it's stronger, I'm asking that when I land a killing shot on an enemy and stick him with a grenade I don't have to wait for there to be an effect because every kill I get is also a potential death. That's as if they made it so that EVA shoots poison darts instead and kills your enemy in 2 seconds after you shoot him.

From what i've seen here, Legion is the fucking worst with it because all AI has spread added to their guns, and it's hard enough to hit small targets even when you're in him.

Scorch is apparently a fucking dead-eye with his thermite launcher, and can snipe pilots mid air with it.

I imagine the rest aren't as good either. If i had to guess, from worst to best

>>
>>166018824
if you dont want to get killed after a softball hit you need to go faster

Scorch is probably the best Auto-Titan. I remember winning an Amped Hardpoint match on Crash Site once because my auto-Scorch held a hardpoint by himself easily while I left to take care of another hardpoint.

Get in the air, at a proper angle you will feel exactly like an apache helicopter. Get fast and high, once you get the tracking down you'll finally see the light. Nothing like gibbing multiple slows with a single burst like napalm on gooks
>>
>>166019154
I'm trying to get this combo to work, but I have to practice more on maintaining the high ground on a regular basis. You cannot score a kill with the Cold War if you don't have elevation.
>>
>>166018894
As the others have said, you MUST have the high ground with the Cold War; otherwise, don't bother and swap to your secondary. Also, the Fast Reload attachment is mandatory on the Cold War.
>>
>>166019415
Not unless they're shit, I have no issues tracking a target no matter how fast they go if I have a hitscan weapon.

And as I said the problem appears when you're in a direct firefight with someone ADSing already, not when you go fast or around them.

excuse me sir, do you have a moment to talk about the grapple?

grapple's first use is gaining momentum/height (launches).
grapple's second use is maintaining momentum/height.

The latter is what makes you a death machine with coldwar. On maps such as Complex and Eden and Drydock, with lots of vertical potential, constantly using very brief little grapple corrections lets you maintain maximum height while never stopping moving

It's so broken, how did they think this was okay.
It's one thing to see webms and kill replays of Devotions, but when you actually FEEL the laser ez kills. Most of the time when I spool it up, I get at least two kills with it. When my wall was on cooldown, I just used it like the R-201 and hipfired in close range, still ez kills.
the ONLY downsides I can possibly think that it has it that you need extended mag to truly become deadly with it, and the first scope it unlocks is the AOG which isn't very useful.

Just had my first day with TF2 MP. Optimization is great. Movement is amazing. Gunplay is solid. Customization is fun. Titan gameplay is ok. Maps are eh.

But jesus fucking christ, the number of no-skill retarded gimmicks in this game is beyond me. Cloak, pilot sentry, ticks, smart pistol, Titan "ulties" etc.

I am still in the honeymoon phase of the game but I can see how this shit can get frustrating fast. Is this why people dropped the game so quickly??

The issue is that all of the things you just named become much less of an issue if you can go fast. Probably 90% of people that pickup this game will never truly go F A S T

Maybe. But so far by going fast I accidentally tripped at least two completely random ticks which I didn't even see. Also PvP is pure cancer with the pilot sentry spam, don't think speed can help me.

Actually it does. Sentry rape you if you just walk on them. If you fly fast past them you're ok, most of the time.

Because your K/D is not that important in some modes.

It took me like 3 hours.

Granted, those first 3 hours were rough. I was smacking my face into walls and flailing as i tried to shoot. I was still clocking like 2.0 K/Ds because I was playing against other absolute goobers, though.

I still have a 2.1 K/D or somesuch, but now I play against real boys

Your kills and deaths are very important in every game mode. I suggest practicing going fast in a private game by yourself so you get really good at it and get the hang of slidehopping.

Also lower your sensitivity. And don't use meme fucking guns like the softball and mozambique, of course you're gonna have a low K/D with those.

tbqh senpai you can use whatever gun you want but unless you get really good with them the grenadier weapons will hold you back. You can win with any loadout in this game if you're good enough, but using a Volt or CAR or Devotion changes the question from, am I gonna win? to how much am I gonna win by?

You're just gonna have to balance whether or not you want instant greatness with a good weapon or a satisfying experience with a weapon that may not be as good, but you find more enjoyment out of it.

It may take longer with the softball but you'll probably have more fun in the long run. My friend and I have been playing for a bit and we usually top with the EPG and LSTAR respectively.

I've only had the game a couple weeks, and I'm happy with those stats - my top 3 % is about 80%, and my MVP is somewhere over 30%, about 22 hours of playtime and a few hundred games iirc.

This is some good shit. Pair it with Low Profile, and you're also pretty effective against Titans. I haven't used another loadout since finding this one.

I only use Phase Shift to save myself when I put a grenade too close to myself, or when I stick a dude and it would have been a trade otherwise.

>>
>>166061324
Wingman E is for cool guys, but if you're not a cool guy you can follow this one easy tip

If you use the default Wingman and Amp it, it's a one shot kill to the body. It's hitscan, you can one tap dudes, and if you're using a gamepad the thing has absurd aim assist.
>>
>>166061840
Playing on PC, so I'll just try both of them
>>
>>166061324
Both are, Wingman is stylish, and is fun as hell with ricochet rounds (when they happen and get a kill you begin feeling like ocelot)

P2016 is like a close range G2, might make people salty or be 'LOL hitscan' but it's neat, feels fun to use, and is a good back up for a grenadier.

>>166061090
Phase is good for nades too close to you, I also like it while fasting around Titans to really confuse them while you pelt them with Saltball rounds.

>>166073637

Related to this guy after all. I was playing Northstar.

I use Over core plus Battery for insta-50%, 70% if you stolen a battery.

Viper Thrusters too, for sppppeeeeedddd.

Just rock out mid range, plink full charge into crit spots and use tether on corners. Titans love closing on Northstar but you'll win a one on one if you've prepped traps/rockets. Hover on top of Titans with Core and stay within two dashes of your target, Terminate is useful to mitigate damage in a multiple titan clusterfuck, I usually dash in for a terminate at about 75%, pop tether and Flight Core the now glued fucker who is trying to assrape me whilst I'm in the animation.

Just be an annoyance, if you can bait people and use hard cover well you can succeed as Northstar.
>>
>>166074261
Okay so basically be annoying. I'll try over core, and viper a bit (I like threat but mostly for Anti Pilots, once I get a bit better with the rifle I planned on switching it to something else). Never thought of overcore since my core experience with it has been...not the best I admit. Besides one time where I have gotten above someone and just screwed them up.

As for the traps, I'll keep them in mind, baiting them shouldn't be too hard, I play scorch quite a bit, and seeing as most people like to rush in on north stars it should be easier to get them.
>>
>>166073637
Northstar prides herself on being the worst Titan to try and chase down. You will never catch her, and she will make you feel pain if you dare try. Maintain space with your tethers, rifle and VTOL, use your dashes to get around and retreat quickly, and don't let enemies get the drop on you.
>>
>>166074518

Once you learn to lead with the railgun pilots are just practice. You can always punch a pilot too, Northstar has absurd reach.

fast reload feels really good to me for the p2016 because it already has the fastest reload in the game, but fast reload makes the reload just a blink. the best part is that the p2016 takes the same amount of time to reload even when you need to rechamber a round, so that slide just blasts forward and it feels really cool.
i guess it's mostly a matter of preference, but it feels way better to me than extended ammo does.

It's not even Titanfall, there's this same clan of idiots in every competitive game. Hell, if you want a particularly close example, look at the old Tribes threads and you'd see the same shit.

Once any kind of "meta" is established in a competitive game, you'll see these guys crop up that treat it like it's the actual fucking Devil. And it's perfect for them! You can't lose.

See, here's how it goes. You lost to a guy? He's using a good weapon? He beat you because he's using the weapon, you're still better than him! If he'd have just been throwing raw fish around like you were you definitely would have outskilled him.

You do well? Look at how fucking pro you are, you beat him by throwing fish around and he's using an actual gun. You're so pro! Good job!

Hell, this isn't even unique to video games. You know the kid at the playground who'd lose, and then go "well I wasn't even trying?", but then win and be like "Hah, I wasn't even trying!" That's these people. They've found a way to cocoon themselves from ever having to admit someone else is better than them. These are the people who get killed by a guy, check to make sure he's using a Volt, and then go "Arrrrgh! Fucking Volt! If only he was using the L-STAR and playing on a racing wheel like me!"

This has nothing to do with balance. This has nothing to do with Titanfall, even. This is just a group of people who have found another way to feel better about themselves.

Been playing the new Doom recently. It's good but it makes me think the campaign might have been cool if there was a sequence where you face off against other pilots on foot in some large closed arena. Sorta like a sniper duel with jetpacks and rocket launchers.
>>
>>166089328
It has a lot to do with balance actually.
The meta in any given video game is ultimately made up of the weapons, characters, or techniques that are the strongest at any given time.
And don't you dare try to steer this away from the game we're fucking discussing in the designated general for the fucking game.
In the case of this game, the most powerful choices are so blatantly apparent it's not even funny. an SMG does the same job as two whole weapon classes and does it BETTER in most cases. An ""LMG"" with high damage in comparison to its firerate and spread miniscule enough that it can plain outrange sniper rifles. Speaking of LMGs, in the same category is THE most useless gun in the game that you'd actually have to have brain damage to use. And of course the Titan that is good at everything and has no strong weaknesses like the others, on top of also having the single highest potential for damage in the game.
If you want to use the most overpowered shit in the game that outright outclasses some of the other things you can use, then by all means do it. Just don't act like you deserve any respect for it. The meta in this particular instance is VERY defined by how imbalanced the game is.

tl;dr good job making yourself look like an idiot. neck yourself voltfag

This is just you not paying attention. There is literally one rule to the network: NO REDDIT. F3fags get the boot by association
If someone is in a reddit network and somehow found their way to ours, then they shouldn't be here to begin with. end of story. no one should have a problem with this

>so you're in F3?
yes. it is populated and i have a few good friends in there i group up with often, friends that dont play cancer builds and stuff.
i know what you say about frothy is true, i just have not seen much bad shit from F3. its a large network so of course there will be mindless drones here and there but overall its been fine.
then again, maybe i dont see it because i am in the network and not on the other side? either way, the worst ive seen has 90% come from RDDT

campaign is solid. fairly short, but straight up fun. it unlock a banner i think, but nothing else besides origin achievements.

Campaign is a fun romp that doesn't outstay it's welcome, but the story beats are very predictable.

>>166093561

the rockets need a nerf, nothing else

40mm is balanced (maybe slower projectile speed to make goosing and pilot kills harder) but the rockets make titan damage insane, it needs a cooldown or nerf to multiple targeting.

>>166093958

pilotable drones don't have genders, dumbass, even if they look humanoid

>>166093561
Personally I'd just be happy if they cut tracking on pilots.

Really the amount of times I've been swinging around a tone or going mach 5 around one, within 100 ft, and it just shooting me, only for me to then see the kill cam and see that their reticle is no where near me, is just asinine.

That alone would make me happy as can be.

>>166094707
Hell maybe not even an outright cut, just make the shit slower like >>166094635 said, or track them less aggressively and I'd be fine. Shouldn't be curving 45 fucking degrees only 50 feet out of the barrel. (Or what seems like it might not be that severe but it's still a tad annoying)

Thing is do they, or any other devloper, feel like dedicating the man power to just do that?

Either the library is going to be devoid of 3rd party, sans occasional 3rd party exclusives like the Wii U, or they will be willing to put out games for it that can run on it, but it'll be a shit load of Shovel ware like with the Wii.

Not saying your idea wouldn't be cool, it'd be cool to see the IP be used for more, but they couldn't even shove out the shitty mobile card game, something tells me they can't be assed to shove out a strategy game for a system people are only gonna buy for exclusives-if that.

It's a shame I really wanted the switch to take off, but I'm not hopeful.

From a dev posting on NeoGAF:
>Cosmetic unlocks beyond Gen10.50
Stoic Black camo and a couple of other unlocks that are currently locked behind levels greater than Gen10.50 should be moved upwards so you'll get them at 10.50.
>Incoming balance tweaks
Map Choices, Buffs/Nerfs: there will be tweaks, but I actually don't know the details; there should be a new missive from Jay soon.
>ETA of above mentioned fixes
ETA is when we get our next client patch out, which is subject to greater delays like certification, etc. Apologies for the delay, it was a result of us making changes to the levelling system late in the game and by the time we found out about the unlock problems it was just before we had our break in December. :(
>Nose arts and warpaints on prime titans, and Respawn's approach to DLCs
Nose Arts should be fixed in the future (should be in the next client patch out as well), but Warpaints are not feasible as of right now.
Unfortunately those (op: Warpaints) will not be enabled for Prime. Technical limitations. There was a warning upon purchasing the Prime Titans in the Store that Nose Arts and Warpaints would not be supported on those.
sorry about that, but that was a technical limitation we didn't know we would run into until we started working on the Prime Titans. Without trying to throw shade on other developers: our DLC stuff wasn't done at launch, printed on disc and waiting to be unlocked via a store purchase. I literally started work on Prime Titans 2 weeks after we went gold, while fixing last minute "oh shite this will break the game" bugs before launch. We ran into unforeseen problems with making the Warpaints and Nose Arts work on the Prime Titans, and while we were eventually able to fix Nose Arts it doesn't seem feasible on Warpaints. Believe you me I understand from a consumer's point of view how disappointing it doesn't all just work, and I wish I could say something more than "I'm sorry. and we'll try harder next time :("

why not just remake Warpaints as a separate file for the Primes? instead of trying to fix the pathing just give them their own set.

Blizzard can make small frequent tweaks and see how it plays out. They can make big updates on a whim even when they have a console version to patch (even giving it unique treatment besides the PC version**) as well because they have money out the ass.

Respawn doesn't have the same luxury. They can make small server side tweaks, but anything of significance would need a patch. Bound by consoles, every time they push an update, they have to pay a stupid fee to MS and Sony just to get it through, and then wait a pretty long time before the platforms give the patch the go-ahead.

It's also a lot more difficult to balance a large roster of fixed characters than individual items and the small roster of robots like in Titanfall.
Tone down Tone just a bit and she'll fall in line with the rest of the titans. Ronin may become the next "OP" titan but it's only relative. All of the titans have the same general role of killing the others. There are no healers or tanks or anything.
Cut down the Voltage and it will fall in line with the other carbines. Complaints about some other gun may slowly grow, but it won't be as loud as the previous complaint.

**T2 was clearly balanced for consoles because Aim Assist is a significant component to the weapon balance, which is why the Volt on Console is shit tier with its poor aim assist, while the Hemlock is absurdly powerful thanks to its sighted aim assist. The game really needs unique attention for the different platforms.

You tweak one character in Overwatch, and others who weren't even touched may suddenly become the new meta. A small change in Overwatch can flip everything around. Each individual may be simple, but there are a lot of them and they all have unique roles. Tweaking one's efficiency at a role can have others overtake them.

While it may be a literal L-STAR against infantry (should remain that way), the Splitter Rifle is already good against Titans. A full energy bar of split shot can put out a lot more damage over three seconds than two Laser Shots over one second. Even in single shot, one magazine can put out 3200 damage, not including any crits. The only thing stopping it from being recognized as obscenely powerful is the slow traveling projectiles. It doesn't really need any changing.

Two Laser Shots or one crit shot do about the same damage as one fully charged Plasma Railgun.
The only damage tweak Laser Shot may need is the inability to deal crits to titans. That would reduce Ion's sniping power without making it overall weaker. It won't be able to put out such quick surprise two bars of damage in just over one second if it gets crits.

Alternatively, make Laser Shot cost 600 energy to fire, that would add about an extra second and a half between firing two laser shots in succession.
>>
What mods should I use on the doubletake?
>>
>>166132621
Gun Ready for faster sighting up is a must.

Ricochet for meme shots.
Quick Reload for its pretty long reload time is better versus having just two extra rounds.
Tactikill is always useful.
Threat Scope could be really good for it.

Viper has a fucking pumpkin head if you look at his actual model. I had to make it a bit taller to fit on a reasonably-sized human head. I think the original modellors for Viper forgot that a head needs to go under the helmet, so they sized his helmet to be what his head should've been.

>>166145078
it's just not true. unless you have a dash, a titan can't move fast enough to dodge a properly aimed shot. everything you are saying is telling me that you are failing to account for projectile travel time and target movement trajectory. It's really not that hard - you just have to slightly lead your target. Moreover, it's about being familiar enough with the railgun to be able to reflexively compensate for the above variables.
>>
>>166145252
Don't overestimate your Legion's toughness. You need to stay in cover and only pop out as long as you have your shield up. If titans get too close push them away with your power shot

I have figured out why exactly Ion's laser shot is so easy to land hits with, and plotted an approximation of its "guaranteed hit" zone.
Originally, I hypothesized that the weapon used the entirety of the beam's effect model as its hitbox. But I noticed that the weapon wasn't really consistent at closer ranges than at longer ranges if that were to be the case, so I got to thinking... what if it's FOV based?
I got off my ass, did some digging, and lo and behold it is.
Specifically, the weapon uses the "shotgunBlast" function which guarantees at least one pellet will hit within a weapon's spread field and damage scaling ranges (this is why, even with only 16 pellets over such a large area, the close range power shot from the Predator Cannon is still a guaranteed kill or two within its effective range).
Once I found this out, I checked that the Laser Shot has a stated spread of 1.5 degrees. From there, I took some quick reference pictures of different zooms and lined them all up. Finally, I drew in the diagram, lined things up, and then plotted out the ratios between them based on the weapons' zoom FOVs. There's a pretty sharp curve towards the center of vision, but the end result is this:
That violet circle in the center is a "guaranteed hit" for the laser shot within 250 feet.

That might not seem very big at first, but you have to consider its effective range and the fact that it's a guaranteed kill on a Pilot. And it's worth noting that, yes, I'm pretty sure that that means the kill zone becomes larger with a lower FOV, so here's one more fun Ion exploit to abuse.
Respawn, what the fuck.

how do i gitgud as ion? i feel like i do ok as a support titan, but if its me 1v1 vs a ronin or a tone i feel like i have to just poke with the shouldercannon and stay pretty far away, and hope the ronin is retarded enough to run into my mines as i try to doom it before it gets to me.

>catching maglauncher shots and shooting them back at the pilot
satisfying

a good ronin player is the closest thing to a counter to ion, so its normal to have a tough time with ronins. luckily most ronins are retarded

actually use your splitter rifle and dont just ignore it. crits from it restore energy.

My personal favorite is the Ogre embark where the titan scoops you inside.

for tone, you want to focus on catching the tracking missiles with the vortex and busting her shield with it. the 40mm doesn't do that much damage, so it's much more advisable to just soak up the 40mm and focus on deflecting the missiles.

for ronin, that's a pretty bad match up. your only hope is to do a fighting retreat. try and crit with the laser while catching as much leadwall as you can. If you can do 1:1 damage, you've already won.

you asked what was cozier. i dont find anything cozy about using a gimmick build when ronin has so many fun tools to use already.

You can totally flank with legion
Walk up behind a few, hopefully unaware titans, have multiple of them in your shotgun blast square, unload double powershot and some regular bullets and your core meter should go up like the cum meter in a hacked hentai game.
Pop your intelligence core and watch things die.
After that you are in an awkward position where you need to quickly finish off remaining titans or gtfo.

Haven't played this game in 3 weeks and still not going to touch this unbalanced piece of shit until actual things are done about it. The game will be dead before then though. I hope it dies and Respawn gets fired due to their incompetence.
