Let's discuss Wasp!

[Loackie 269]

I have skills with the wasp, I can doge the enemy, I can do a flip and make it without face planting, I can like grab the flag and climb over the enemy! It is so fun to climb over your enemy and its really funny too.

once I had the flag and when a bunch of the opposite team was shooting at me, I just climbed over them, when I got to the flag I had the most tiniest bit of health left, at least I was going really fast or I wouldn't of got that point

You'll only see around 5-10 other Wasps out of all the Hornets as you go up into the higher ranks.

Do u get obe shotted from rails when both are m4?

[LiquidSoup 9]

How do you get M4 stuff?

Possible, but little chance! Add 50% rail protection to that and you will survive double damage rail shots with ease :)

wasp m3 king

[Loackie 269]

^Most definitely. I wish I could use it though.

[Loackie 269]

How do you get M4 stuff?

It's slang for M3's with full MU's. I'd call it M3.5 if i could, but nobody would understand.

m4 is an fully MU m3 weapon at all parameters...

[rokar123 11]

Fastest hull.

[Vettefan22 145]

^ Really...

[Buggati_The_Best 1,233]

yes,really

[sam131192 113]

^ Useless posts -_-

Wasp m3 is a very good flag capper, though I would prefer hornet to withstand the high damage from short ranged turrets.

How much more stable is hornet compared to wasp cause I've never used wasp.

[Vettefan22 145]

^ Most people don't think of it this way, but Wasp, in a way, is more stable than Hornet (I'm a car guy so I know things like this :P). So, the Wasp has a higher center of gravity, which makes it easier to flip than Hornet. It's also lighter which helps too. But Wasp does have more grip than Hornet, so each turn is more precise. With Wasp, you're more likely to flip then run into a wall. With Hornet, it's the other way around. Some people master the drift, some people master the Wasp. So, there you go :)

[Klankill804 753]

Somehow, I've mastered the DRIFT and the WASP...

 

Which one would last longer with me..? :ph34r:

^ The Wasp :)

[Theawesomecooldude 108]

Wasp m1 is surprisingly good at my rank, and with all of the m2 close range weapons, specifically freeze and Isida.

[raman098 1]

It can be easily killed by railgun.

[Vettefan22 145]

^ So can Hornet. You're point is?

[Poof 52]

Please refrain from using CAPS LOCK as it is a violation of the Game Rules and will result in a warning or ban.

[Vettefan22 145]

^ That was really annoying because of the caps lock.

[crw14 1]

@crw14: Yes, I'm very successful with that combo. I use both M1. I like to use it kind of like a Freeze, circling my opponents while constantly knocking off their aim with the explosive knockback. It works very well :D

Hmm, i'm excited, yet still doubtful. Wouldn't it be hard to aim if an enemy fires at you? Even with hornet-rico, I miss. The strange combos i'm going to try with wasp are wasp-shaft and wasp-rico.

I wish wasp was that good when i used it m1. I was always dwarfed by the m1 hornet. But now wasp is just as good, if not better. 

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

I never really liked using Wasp/Shaft that much. The recoil impact from the Shaft would immobilize me for a crucial moment where I was extremely unstable, and any shot in that moment would undoubtedly flip me. :P

Not to mention when using Shaft, I like to camp. Haha. So I take a Mammoth, since I don't move at all. I just get a good view, and start sniping. . .

 

As for Wasp/Rico. That set is rarely used well. You're either amazing with it, or you suck with it, at least that's how I've noticed it to be.

Though when used right it is pretty darn awesome. Be creative, and you can annoy enemies without getting shot. :D

Also, with the Rico's fast reload and Wasp's good maneuverability and speed, it's a unique combination indeed.

 

Wasp was always good, in my opinion, even before this re-rebalance. But I guess the update did make it easier to grasp upon for others.

 

If you want a "strange" combination, I suggest Thunder/Wasp.

A very underrated combination.

[Vettefan22 145]

^ I use all 3 of those "strange" combinations! lol

[Pow12345678 12]

could somebody make new wasp vs hornet speed test because hornet is now slower? from deserts head to heah and then around dusseldroff
