Wait - wut??? ?

Women tend to be better listeners and have more empathy. These are very important traits for careers in Teaching and Medicine.

Can't tell .... if this is a troll-job, or... satire. I pray for the latter...

Or equips a module. The number of players STILL running around without a module equipped is astounding. And they are usually on the same team as me.

Well it IS a P2W game. You literally pay $ to get advantages. It is FTP, but also P2W. The two are not mutually exlusive. You need to be a buyer to complete a mission assigned to you? One that you can't change? That makes ZERO sense. Nada. The company makes $ by giving advantages to buyers and by selling "exclusives". Suppressing players abilities to complete something they have little control over just leads to players giving up. How is that good for business? Of course you don't think it is a problem. THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT. It's self-serving. There's no counter to it. A surprise attack by a hornet can kill any medium tank in the battle, including those with an active OD. Something you can't defend against (at all) IS OP.

Well, in principle yes, the Gauss can try to keep away. Does not always work in practice. IMO Shaft arcade shot is as useful as Gauss arcade, or maybe a bit better.

Not so sure about this. Gauss is quite awlward up close - and has self-damage. The arcade shot for Gauss is very meh.

Well, "does not work on medium hull" is not really a "con" if you never use a medium hull, right? So 4 "pros" vs 1 "con". I don't think so...

Your postives far outweigh your negatives. % of time you'd have > 2 targets lined up is low anyway.

The Ricco? One mystery solved...

We will have to see if that actually ends up being applied. There is a LOT of feedback there, and many of the issues reported by multiple players. It's one thing to create a poll. It's another to act on it. I'm hoping they do act on it.

LOL... why do I need to create a poll? You were the one who "assumed"... But I'm sure > 50% players all love the "finish-top-3 winning team" mission - you know - considering only 3 players out of 16 can manage that. And I'm sure it's just coincidence that you exclusively use Rail-Hornet. amirite? ?

If I really feel the need to play beyond missions - I'll do Pro-Battles - if there are any half-decent ones there. prefer no-supply / no-OD anyway. Just that there's much fewer battles avaialbe.

How you figure that?

Yup - there's really no incentive to continue in MM if you have completed the middle finish-10 missions one. Now you need to wait until that re-loads to make it worth your while. I hate it when I finish "mid-week" and then need to wait 3-4 days. Sure I don't HAVE to wait - but - it's not worth it to spend supplies on MM if you are not completing missions.

Not quite true. The no-lifers wanted more rewards for their "efforts". We got Challenges. Bleccchhh

Ricco has 5600 damage "in the pipe"? Is that what it can do now after it's last update? Never feels like that when I use it. When I run into heavy hulls with that much protection I struggle - often coming out on losing end.

versus stock or an alt? Drone? Hornet OD? Riccos have trouble vs heavy hulls that have modules + DA.

It's the ridiculous way some teams that have much better connection are loaded before their enemy. Thye are stealing the flag on smaller maps before opposition spawns for the first time. And Trooper drone helps here by giving SB and DA off the bat. Game needs a lobby before the battles. Load players there, let them change equipment to suit map... then go. TX got 1 thing right anyway.

It's a terribly unbalanced map - the top (red) has a huge advantage. Sorry to say - that map will never be added to MM - unless they change it so much it will not be recognizable.

Blecccchhh.

Oh - maybe I mis-understood your first point. I thought you meant before each battle. But you meant vote on what maps gop into the pool? What effect would "voting on best map" have?

- with voting, there will always be disappointed players who will leave the battle because they did not like how others (groups?) voted. - gear score already does matter - some. But how would you possibly give that a priority? What if I equip my mk1 equipment? Will that put me in battles with lower ranks?

That's not exploiting. It's offset by the fact you can't one-shot hulls for 20 seconds, or rapid-fire multiple enemies dead in under 7 seconds. etc. Give-and-take. Else one could make the case ALL ODs are exploits. But since everyone has a hull, then everyone is "exploiting".
