To the people complaining that Russians get better deals: Russia's economy isn't as good as other nations, so lower prices are fair.

if you are the average hornet user that thinks that they are pro at railgun (the ones with the big ego usually arent :p ), then you will find something wrong with any combo other than rail/hornet. You seem to be open to hunter, and i recommend you to get it, its better than hornet. Pretty good with rail, though wasp is better. You might want to use another gun as your main. Personally, i think dictator is better (not just for golds) , but it depends on your play style.

Well, I'm using rail until this gun is fixed.

I was sniping with rail, and some noob pushed me off of my spot and flipped me. When i asked why he did it, he responded by saying "I thinked there was gold"

do you guys think getting Hammer/Smoky (the guns that never seem to get nerfed) until Thunder gets better is a good idea? I can't handle hornets beating me because I can't kill them fast enough.

... Have you ever tried, I don't know, small maps? (Did not mean to like this)

Are you really asking if you should get an m2 or an m1 first? Get rail if you are really into xp, and put thunder on hold, because it really got nerfed. If there is another rebalance that fixes thunder, then go for it. Thunder is generally better in normal battles. I am a fan of dictator/thunder, and do recommend it, but until thunder gets better, invest in dictator.

Have you ever tried m2 or m3? Hornets are harder to kill, in fact, many tanks require 1 more shot to kill, which is super annoying. My friends who have stock m3 thunder, or m4 thunder, say that they also rarely 2 shot hornets (their modification, without thunder paints) from a range in which thunder is supposed to be able to hit with max damage. I also used to be able to 3 shot viking m3s with my slightly upgraded thunder m2, but now I can't. I know what i'm talking about.

I've realized that using supplies seems like noobish way to do well, but if you have the drugs, use them. I just recently got back into playing after a year, and i had about 500 of each supply. I wasn't going to let them go to waste, so I used a lot of them. I don't regret anything. To the people who call druggers noobs, maybe they should think of getting a pro pass (not like that's ever been said before!), and play ns battles. Though I do think it should be the other way around (Normal battles don't allow drugs, but pro passes do), I will still use my supplies when it is allowed, and do well. Even though i use drugs, i play pro battles, and usually place in the top 2 even though many m3s are there (due to kits). To those who say pro battle passes are too expensive, I can buy them regularly, and get the 5000 back easily. I understand it can be an issue with low ranks, because they dont make that much, and druggers at their rank are more dangerous. But to the high/mid ranks complaining, you should be able to afford a cheap pass every month.

Thunder is pretty bad now. I really hope the devs see that they didn't make any thunder users happy with this update and edit it. They could at least make thunder hit with max damage more often, I can rarely 2 shot hornets anymore

I don't think missions in which you have to take health boxes is a good idea. Full health players will steal health boxes from low health players more often.

Should upgrade hunter or wasp? I loved wasp for doing trickshots and dodging shots, but hunter has gotten a noticeable increase in speed which appeals to me. Upvote = hunter Downvote= wasp

How often does thunder 2 shot hornets of that modification? Since the update, even the stats point to the conclusion that it should, I haven't been able to 2 shot a hornet.

It was rare enough to 2 shot a hornet with thunder, now it is even worse.

how long did it take to get that?

Actually i meant in general, not at m2 (I'm getting both at m2). I play more dms than team battles, but there arent many dms, so sometimes I am forced to do team battles. Even though the health difference isnt much, it makes a difference. My hunter dies way more then dictator. However I have hornet m2, but kind of regret buying it; m3 is weak. I guess I just want to know how hunter is in ctf. Not related: Roger or tundra?

Viking, but if I were you I would go with hunter or dictator. As stated above, there is a topic for helping you decide what to buy (it's pinned, so people will most likely see and respond to your question).

Dictator or hunter? Ive tried both and have noticed some things. Because of dictator's great speed (taking defence in mind) it is great in deathmatches and team deathmatches. When I pair it with thunder, I can get k/d's around 50 and many golds. Hunter seems better in ctfs and cps, it's easier to get the to control points and faster to capture flags. However it is not as good in deathmatches or team deathmatches (or fast enough not to get hit when capturing flags). The way I see it is that dictator has pros to balance the cons, but hunter has no significant pros or cons.

Its stats are actually really good :)

I think this is exaggerated :/

Though some shaft players are very good, others are giving shaft a bad reputation. When I am using wasp and a gold is falling (mostly in stadium), a shaft always kills me. This is why I make it my buisness to take out all shafts when I see that notification. I have been stereotyping shafts as bad players, but when I see a really good shaft I give them credit.

I can usually 3 shot an m3 viking, it's just emerald that's a problem :p

It's lag, sometimes Ii have been able to quickly pass over or under tanks. This mostly happens when im playing with dictator or hunter.

Fire and freeze are actually very good at tdms and dms, they aren't just for support. :p

I just wish there were more hunter gameplay videos :p
