I guess your equipment matters. But in Assault or CTF... keeping the flag is so important. If there's an isida guarding flag or worse - chasing you ... stun defense would be better

Did not even see that on the first page. Wow. Why would you use EMP immunity when supply cooldown is 8 seconds. CTF or Rugby players will all have that Stun immunity on.

watch it again - specifically mentions "exclusively during special events". There's not a chance they give you Ultra Containers for finishing weekly missions.

Ultra Containers are not replacing regular containers. They are only offered during special events - that's what they meant by "available for missions" - special missions.

So they destroy that aspect by going from 30 to 5. Then move it up slightly to 8 where it sits 73% below what it was originally... and some people say it's "buffed". LMAO.

YUP.

You need to back-read a bit... brace yourself...

Patch notes say 5 seconds. Even IF it's actually 8 seconds, that's still -73% from what it was before.

If they are playing they are ranking up. If they are not ranking up, they are not playing much. The two are inclusive - you can't do one without the other. Either way regular players won't see them for long - unless the regular players are grinding (and keeping up). Their choice to do that. But this is small potatoes compared to what they are doing with alterations and modules - that is what will break the game.

It does seem like the last gasping breath of the dying. The desperation is palpable. I'm retiring one account and may do so with the other. It's just dumb.

The irony is... Thunder & Rail have nothing to do with the changes they are making. Absolutely nothing.

From the video it sounds like ALL alterations will only be avaiable in the containers. No more turret alts in the garage.

Two things. 1) Clearly the IM alt is OP and a dumb decision by Devs 2) Either way you will die. One is not better than the other if both are OP and both kill you

That's not my take-away from watching the video. They said all alterations, including turret, will be available in Ultra Containers. Then they said alterations (no specific mention of "hull") will no longer be avaialble for crystals or TKs. And since only turret alts are available for crystals it's safe to assume turret alts are included in the "only".

Clearly you forget my fire module still protects from straight damage - which is what Incendiary mix does. My fire module only protects against part of what compact tanks does. The afterburn will do more total damage vs enemies with fire module.

I respect and hate you equally for that.

I'm sure there will be a few mods that "earn" one of the hull alterations from the containers. Then they post on here what they got and how great the rewards are.

Every fire user will equip compact tanks now. A 1-second kiss of flame means certain death.

This is absolutely insane. - Our current Fire and Freeze modules have been nerfed and no longer reduce afterburn or freezing - We can't buy in garage the alts that would make up for this - Even if we got lucky enough to snag a hull alt in a container - do we get to choose whatalt that is? This game is lost. Your masters really have lost their minds. Are they purposely trying to drive away players? Guess what - it's working.

Titan?

Would be a darn shame if they couldn't swing it for some odd reason Darn shame. ?

That would be so ridiculous - I would not put it past them to try that. I certainly don't see then available in garage for Hunter alterations. Only shows stock.

Don't even see them for Hunter. I see Ultra Containers. No alterations though.

You obviously don't know me at all. Well - you did better than my prediction. But my condolences...

2.7 to 3 and 3 to 5 after it had the GIANT nerf from 30 seconds down to 3 seconds is a... buff? Oh... don't forget about the new alteration that affects EMP. Is that a buff too?
