Let's Discuss Railgun!

[husto 474]

Should I have my rail with viking or mammoth? Or is hornet better? I have viking M1 and also M1 mammoth.

hornet!

[ben171270 132]

ah, ok.

If your not sniping, then that does work, but you should still be finding your next target before you shoot.

Ahh, I love stadium(havent played new version though, (I think) thats where I got my highest K/D ratio, 99 :D

But yes, I agree when camping you need to aim before firing, it also really helps you not getting much damage, if you quickly go out just as the shot it being fired you shouldnt be hit that much time(due to enemies delayed reaction).

 

I have used viking to good effect attacking, but a light hull is normally preferable.

Thats good, I have seen many railgun users completely mis-use it :\

 

Obviously dont play with people of your rank then.

I have often played with people your rank and above, using rail and have done fairly well. I have also seen many epic railgun users your rank and above, which can be so effective in CTF, DM, TDM.

How much is the smoky m2 crit chance? Railgun requires skill, not relying on chance to kill the enemy :P

If you seriously havent seen good rail users, then either you are playing the wrong battles, or there are none :| I often(when I play) see them, and the good ones can be vital in games.

 

Then you cant be a good railgun user. I have rail m2, and I would like to think that I can do pretty good with it(I would like to think I DID do pretty good with it before RB(which is when I was actually playing a significant amount).

Smoky isnt bad, but I way prefer rail.

 

If a rail user cant hit you MOST(not all) of the time even with the knocback from another weapon, they arent that good.

Turn your Hull so you cant be Hit on the side :D

1. Unlimited Range.

 

2. Big damage

 

3. Kill-steal

 

4. Big Impact

 

5. M2 has a nice purple color

 

6. Ermagurd it's a Lazer

Point 4 and 5 are very Important :P

[ben171270 132]

hi!, thunder and shaft has also long range, and other guns can also do good damage. So railgun has no speciality!. If there is a speciality of railgun that no other gun has then tell me. :)

Thunder good range?if you get shot across Polygon you wont feel a thing :D

[ben171270 132]

many people think that railgun shoots a laser but i am not sure this is true, the word "railgun" usualy refers to an electro magnetic propulsion system also the wepon description says "acurate kinetic projectile" not laser. is the railgun turret similar to the wepon system being experimented with by the american army used to fire magnetic bullets?

 

thanks if aneyone knows

Dont ask me :D

[ben171270 132]

Rails power Depends on the map,i would always take hunter, speed a little higher than HP,but enough HP to drive away.In sandbox always take dictator you can kill Guys on the platform easily :-)

Try hiding till your shot has reloaded,pop out take another shot,take People out that have been shot enough,so you can cherry pick the kill :D

[LaughingGrass 216]

it is so fun to steal kills with rail

I hardly use rail, but from what I saw on this topic, a lot of the community uses it  :) I can see why.

because of the 65% discount it had ofc.

[Kevred 1,586]

i really dont see why its so populr. as a long range sniper Shaft is better, and as active player theres thunder, ricochet, isida, freeze, twins....

[splitterpoint 10,986]

Very annoying today again, lots of people who can't time.

[HighwindsGDN 30]

Rails are so annoying now as there everywhere.  Its ok, I just on Tundra and use a heavier hull and they're SOL.

[splitterpoint 10,986]

More Rail protection paints aswell... more holes created in the paints system for Thunder.  :lol:

Gah. I verse Thunders today and when I have no paints they kill me at a good progress. :P  I have Thunder-paints in mind though. I might go for Emerald after I get Wasp M2. :rolleyes:

Note to self: Never trust anyone to buy crystals for you and buy everything else you would like to have in garage. I trusted kenthemaster but he isn't responding...

[jiustaslinas 4]

MAN!!!!!!!!!! I jst love using this weapon ,,,,,,,after get bak from 10 hrs of exhausting studies & work ...its jst so much fun to kill enemies with this weapon.....& i am using this weapon from my 4th WO time....i am so accustomed with the delay & fire mechanism....i can't play any other  weapon bcz of tht ;( .....but i love RAIL !!!!!!!!!!

 

 

HAIL RAILGUNNHERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!! .......WE DOMINATE :D

[ExtremeTank2 10]

Two words: Best turret

[ExtremeTank2 10]

Railgun M1 is overpowered. This is only when you upgrade it at Warrant Officer 3-5. At low ranks, the most popular hulls are Wasp and Hornet and they would most likely be M0 (Wasp may be M1). With Railgun, you could 1 hit K.O almost everyone.

i really fear it the most with my rank  :ph34r:

[squirll-talk-rocks 1]

i used to have rail m1 on my hacked account and i was saving for m2 :( :(

Thunders damage is reduced dramatically with long range, so its not good long range, & shaft vision is reduced . Railgun has good damage no matter the range. & its the best gun for hit and hide since it has the most damage in one it for that tactic. It also pierces through the tank to the one behind it. Ive done double kills like that. :D

You can do triple kills too. :ph34r:
