I have the strong feeling that Magnum will get a splash change too as splash is important to it, because even Striker got the change. It might even affect Twins too, but I think the range is too short to modify it.

Ha! I told you :D

 

I had the feeling that Magnum is gonna get a change. Let's see how the numbers will work out.

I used Shoe in the test server today along with Striker. I can now declare that this will be my next project; getting it to M4. Shoe allows me to shoot over Wasps, Hornets and Vikings. That's like the majority of hulls on the battlefield.

 

Even though the rigged auto aim mechanism will totally destroy this advantage if it spots an enemy; making the missiles go in a straight line right towards the center of the enemy (so it still slams into the team mate if he's in the way) it might work out in close combat where I have to shoot a wall that's behind a couple of team mates and above all, prevent myself from self destructing.

Wait, Striker has limited range?

 

Yeah, fire away into the skybox and the rocket eventually blows up. I've been to the far edge of the skybox as spectator and I can say that it's quite a bit larger than what you'd think by looking at the exploding rocket... That's just happening way too soon.

 

On the other hand, when I rock forward and then do the shot into the skybox it seems to just disappear. That's probably a glitch though. Still no map is large enough to make Strikers rockets run out of juice... For as far as I know.

Striker's latest patch changes:

  • Average splash damage (%): 50% -> 90%
  • Radius of average splash damage (m): 2m -> 5m
  • Radius of min splash damage (m): 10m -> 8m
  • Projectile radius (m): 0.5m -> 1m

 

Yay Striker's missiles are finally as big as Twins' projectiles  :D

Seriously, I'm starting to like Striker now... just finished a long Rio non-drug battle on #1.

Now all it needs is a vertical aiming buff and it'll be fairly decent.

I just got striker m3 on a personal discount. I hate it. I can rarely get a lock on and lost most of my health in the process. Won't be using it again in a hurry.

Welcome to the club.  It will only take you 40 hrs to learn how to use - even then... meh.

 

But the striker apologists will make the case it's you - not the turret.

Use mouse controls, it'll help keeping you locked on and the turret will auto-adjust for its own knockback from left and right barrel. That's useful for enemies who're sitting still at far distance.

 

If I switch back to normal controls, I feel less dizzy but I also suck because twins keeps knocking my aim of even if its on the other corner of the map.

"shoe" AKA "dictator" is the greatest hull I've used with thunder , I tried several hulls , and "shoe" worked out great for me , especially for hitting enemies behind walls , now that was thunder and I am waiting to rank up to marshal so I can try it with striker , but I have high hopes :)

 

I still don't really like Viking even after a few months of use and it's almost M4

GOD that's annoying , twins turrets always seem to kill me no matter which turret I use (smoky - thunder - striker - railgun in my alt)

the impact force is insane , and it's mostly noticeable with Viking and light hulls.

Yeah true, I don't know but there's something about the view aswell; as if you're having more control over the situation because your turret is positioned higher. I never had a problem with Viking's low profile until they switched stats. I naturally associate low and wide as stable but in sacrifice of more objects and team mates obstructing your view. Now that I have Hunter for a few weeks, I realize how weird the experience actually is.

 

My experience with Shoe in the test server was also weird. You'd think that the tall hull would be unstable but the overall manoeverability really suprised me.

shoe is a funny name lol 

 

nonetheless , yeah the hull is extremely stable and really hard to just get your aim knocked off by a twins or rico , I love it , I can't wait to reach marshal so I can used it again. , I have catched many golds with it , but with Viking you barely catch any golds .

 

I wanted to buy hunter but having all 3 medium hulls is absurd , I won't be using all of them anyway so why buy all of them.

Because hunter is the mix of the two other medium hulls now.

MOUSE CONTROLS LMAO! Huge props.

:lol:

 

You're pretty good with striker. Looks like the practice does pay off.

Yeah it does, I get worse when I don't use it for a couple of days, it'll work if Striker is your main turret.

that's a nice video , nice strier skills and nice editing .

Thanks!

 

You have good aiming with striker! I find this turret too frustrating to use.

Thanks! It's not that bad when you get to know its quirks and mouse controls help too, atleast for me. I do all the turret movements with the mouse.

I probably would use it more often if the vertical aiming gets an improvement.
