Yup - until after-burn protection becomes more common IR is the best smoky alt.

Gauss is good at this (flank shots) too, since it can snipe comfortably by ambush. On a hornet that Gauss can wipe out a team even under a Dome. Any heavy survivors won't last long. Magnum too. A firebird that gets close can cause havoc since very few can protect against afterburn, All in all Vulcan probably has a bit too much of a punch - as mentioned above it's damage at mk8 should be closer to 900 DPS than 1000.

Yeah... 900-ish would not be bad I guess. Incendiary-Band... they have broken the game again by allowing it to work with Heat Immunity. (One of) the dumber decisions they have made recently.

Maybe it's the competition. Are you upgrading 1-2-3 after you rank up? Playing higher-ranked players?

1) For each example like that there are plenty that are the opposite. 2) TJUG... all it takes is one excellent player as the JUG and that team can win. If that 1 player never dies they can't lose can they. It's like the goalie position in hockey - can make the difference even on a crappy team. TJUG is less of a team battle-mode than most of the others.

Yeah, that's what I would expect. Might be a few left-overs that have not played much. But that's no different from the odd Captains I encountered sporting Prodigi paint when I was a 1st Lieutenant.

We all know they don't know "simpler". See Vulcan "fix" after Incendiary band came out. So people can complain for now - since it is unfair - but they do have "work-arounds"... just don't play against them. They WILL rank up (much faster) if they play.

Not worse than a paint - you may eventually use batteries later (much later). Keep accumulating them from now on and it becomes a decent nest-egg. Unlike paints. Let's be honest - how many of the paints in out garage do we catually use? I probably have 60 paints and I might use 5 of them - swapping them out every other month or so.

Yes the conversion was crap (m2.10 to mk7.0) Now you need to wait it out as they rank up much faster than you - since - as they destroy the other teams, they get more rewards and more experience. What else are you suggesting? They don't reverse major updates - so think of something besides reversal.

Or maybe nerf it because it's just too OP. Maybe that's the reason...

Might have 1000 DPS against stationary targets but it likley drops for moving targets - the further away the greater the drop. But if it had a slight nerf to damage it would still be a decent turret.

I agree Titan OD is weak compare to the other ODs - there are too mnay counters to it. But as for supplies - you are Legend 9 - you should have plenty of supplies. So that you don't use them would be your choice.

Over Drive

If it's any faster than 7.0 then they made a huge mistake since Titan only goes 6.50. How would it do that? It can't fly. Probably travels ~ 3 feet off the ground.

It was planned. Take something away. Then give it back - but with huge price hikes. They were not doing us any favors.

What? Why would I want to be destroyed when the JUG on my team gets killed. Why should the highest scorer get JUG? it's a TEAM battle. That's like minor sports when the coach keeps playing his "best" player and making others ride the bench. a TERRIBLE example of sportsmanship.

won't help you versus hornets. "Ignoring the protection extends to damage from burning and mines." I have a 47% shark module. Against hornets it's like it's not even equipped.

That's some strong hate there... Do you hate them more than vulcan-IncendiaryBand-Heat immunity users?

LCR with DD?

What does this mean? And Rails can get one-shot kills. That's a GIANT advantage.

Are you expecting anything except full support for MM with a list of reasons why it is JUST THE BEST? Good luck...

What? Are you saying ALL smoky players are buyers and NO XP/BP players are buyers? ?

1) Maybe - the current game set-up has led many players to this "view". Maybe you just block out the many, many complaints in the forum. If a large portion of the playerbase thinks there's problems - they are real. 2) Would you regularly start chess games 1-2 pieces down, or by letting opponent have 2-3 moves before you have 1? 3) MM was very poorly adopted. How do you not add frustrating or, even unfair in your list of what MM is? 4) "some area to improve"? It needs a LOT of improvement. He's full of crap - it's just an excuse to not fix things. I don't believe for one second that balanced games lead to LESS gameplay. It's ridiculous to posture that "even" battles are harder on our minds than the completely frustrating spawn-killing blow-outs. The Theory is not sound.

Don't hold your breath on a nerf. It's their "darling" - they like it the way it is. A few more players using it (like the rest) is not gonna make them change their minds.

Isn't it better that fewer people actually know the benefits? You want more of them out there?
