Let's Discuss Isida!

[Loackie 269]

You find them annoying just because this combo is very good. :)

Oh no, they either act like total drunkards or heavily exceed my extremely low expectations, making me think they are "very good". I've yet to find a middle ground, and i'm lucky if i get healed by a (M2 or worse) hornet-isida. Any other combo is perfectly fine lol

It's going to take some time for me to get used to Isida's new autoaim. It looks really twitchy, but otherwise I've still been healing and attacking people alright.

[Hayagriva 107]

Isyda is usefull but much more destroyed and unbalanced than it was.

Low power almost weapon...

[NewbieCake 3,067]

Isida is weak now. Not to mention the huge disadvantage that the beam goes everywhere. Also, it's pretty boring to use, but it earns fast XP + crys.

[NewbieCake 3,067]

Hoping this update fixes Isida.

Maybe that should be "anywhere" -- look at the start of this video from Rio. :o

[dfoofnik 341]

but when you have isida you will be killed first most times

Yup. Deservedly so, when you consider that shooting the guy you are keeping healthy wouldn't do much good with you there.

"Shoot the isida twice, the other guy once."

Some successfully attack me, others are just soap bubbles to pop. I don't know which is worse: running out of power as the guy is about to shoot you, or trying to run away and getting shot in the butt.

Although they sometimes come in handy, Isidas are just pumping gas or sucking blood. When I see two together, healing each other, that cr*p has got to go. Just hanging a bulls-eye and setting phasers to kill.

@dfoofnik,the first part of vid is due to lagg xd

[UltimateGamer123_PRO 0]

Isida is good and Cheap :) 

[NewbieCake 3,067]

The extra range helped this turret a lot. I like the buff.

[ChaiLatte 4]

This update killed Isida's best attribute. The reduced conical range is so bad when I'm going head to head with a Rico, Hammer, or Smoky I lose my beam at them when I get hit with their shots. It jumps around way too much. Please fix. I'd happily sacrifice my range and faster reload to fix this problem.

I do know I was seeing the opposite yesterday, I have have Ishida's locking on when their turret is of by 90 degrees and I have had one stay locked on when I drove behind the Isida 180 degrees. I was having some lag but still doesn't explain the beam tracking  me with the turret or the hull not turning to face me of even my general direction  after several seconds.

THANK YOU AUGU66

[Fanfoue9 14]

Yeah i have to say isida is actually really boring to use and is by far (and i mean by far) the worst gun in the game. Its like saying mammoth is the  worst hull in the game (which is partly true).

EXACTLY. what a big difference of enjoying isida before and after cone reduction.... isida worth nothing in pleasure now. verz disgusted against this... pffff

fanf - isida M3 - viking M3

[USA-POWER 227]

This cone reduction is causing me headache, i may have seizure one day, because it keeps jumping from one place to another on a tank 

[toti68 11]

developers read these types of post? I have my doubts about it.
Now I'm not here to say that they have it with me, because after all the time spent playing and the crystals used to improve my tank I find myself doing only target the battlefield, not so obviously ... but there is a truth or rather there is a tendency among developers, to reward (besides those who spend more 'money) to those who apply the law of "I've got bigger." So nothing agility, no technique, no inventive ... just bum bum bum or that makes you bounce and that the first breath destroys you ... so it is useless, or nearly so, to have a ISIDA ... then if you mount it on a wasp, as happens to me ... unfortunately, it is often unnecessary to start playing

(I use google translator ... I hope you understand the meaning)

[Lord-of-the-Snipers 1,620]

It probably depends on the player if the Isida is nerfed or buffed.

 

Because of the small cone you now really have to aim with the Isida.

It 's totally different in that aspect from the Freeze and Firebird where

aiming isn 't that important: just shoot somewhere at the direction

of your opponent and they do their job.

 

The rebalanced Isida instead has to be handled like you 're

firing a Smoky or Thunder.

Otherwise it will be "jumpy" indeed and non-effective.

 

If you handle it well you are rewarded with a "long-range" short-range turret,

with increased damage and a larger reservoir!

Personally (combo Wasp-Isida) I like it a lot.

 

The nerf is found in the smaller cone (reduced firing angle) and if this stays

like it is (most likely) you have no other choice than adapting your gameplay,

or choose another (short-range) turret.

[USA-POWER 227]

the problem is not with the cone, but this random jump from one spot to another on a tank ! its hysterical ! beside it doesn't go vertical like before so i realized now that i can destroy isidas by going to different heights, it sounds like isida is having a frozen neck 

Its beam looks so primitive and doesn't go with the new tanki style 

[toti68 11]

 

 

you've never played in noise? after the upgrade?
is useless if you have the ISIDA

[kayitsiz 621]

I was fightning with thunder-titan in short range with my smoky-dictator. An isida-hornet came behind of the thunder user. However, he hit me!  :huh:  :unsure:  :wacko:  :blink:

There was a small space which the isida could see to hit me, and he hit me  :lol:

Nope, I don 't play in Noise.

 

Don 't like that Map at all: but I get your point, with all the upward- and downward fighting 

going on here, the new Isida will not work as well as before.

Also keeping a distance from your opponent is hard here, I guess another reason why the

new Isida suffers in a Map like Noise.

[Chameleos 157]

How can you say isida is not worth it? I've devoured my enemies's tanks, and kept my whole team healthy.

this is a flat plain map , i guess it was farm

"Noise CTF" of course it is Farm. :)

Because we all know Farm is a 8vs8 map.
