Who will teach these silly XP users how to play?

Does that sound suprising to you?

 

Ego-gun has always been the turret for players who think they look cool when doing unneccesary trickshots.

 

I don't get it either.. why rush in with a longe range turret? I shoot them 2 or 3 times with Striker in they're down in 2 seconds. Sometimes I see Railers who turn a full circle before they shoot, like lol what's the point of that?

 

Well I don't mind.. they miss all the time and it saves me a little HP.

 

On the other hand, the snipers are pretty dangerous. This is why I use Railgun protection a lot. But I also use it to slam up those ego's in their..

 

Out of all players, the XP Railers ram into me the most and typing all sorts of cyrellic text or calling me a dog or something. Well woof woof to that.

 

Keep on doing trickshots on your miserable light hulls. Smoky users will love it.

Hi. My name is Viking4s.  And I am an Ego-gun. Two years ago I was offered the opportunity to buy the legend kit. I must admit I was not overly keen.  I was reasonably strong with my thunder viking combo, and in no pain or discomfort playing it every day.  To be honest, I read through the Newspaper Kit guide and decided this was not for me. On the day I bought it, it was pure fate I had enough crystals and a bit bored so I decided to give it a go.  I am glad to say it was 100% good decision. 
I mean, it feels so great, it is so powerful, fast and accurate. Everybody should have that combo, it's good for everything, you kill at long distance and short distance with equal power and through many tanks, you can make triple kills, take the flag and  pcthout cap in no time.
I'm to dependant of it now, I'm powerless over Railgun. My gameplay had become unmanageable, I can't play any other combo. 
ohh, that magnum turret seems great, I shall try it...

You are contradicting your own theory, on one hand you are slamming the XP/BP users who are attacking and on the other you are attacking Light hulls with your last statement. I would like to kindly let you know that light hulls are meant to be attacked with, and that is what gives the XP/BP combo a meaning.

 

For all I care you can keep rambling on about how Railgun is a turret for noobs and how it should not be used for attacking, but I will also say this, you have absolutely no right to judge other people and their favourite combos regardless of what you think is right.

 

P.S. not all people use Railgun for trickshots.

Eh, they will learn...

After they get destroyed by impact turrets over and over they will eventually realise that Railgun requires a different approach. They will learn, just like how every past and present "pro" Railgun player had to learn at some point.

That's how I see it, I don't mind having those 'pro's' as enemy but I don't want Railers in my team who are doing trickshots for the sake of montages or whatever video.

 

Railers in general are angry toxic and unreasonable people to talk to and so I've decided to do the same to them. I have no doubt that there are friendly guys around and don't use the turret to show off and I have nothing against them at all.

 

You think I'm generalizing the Railgun population and I probably am. This is my view. Like a grumpy old grandpa.

 

When they do trickshots and see that they failed I will instantly tell them via the chat. I am confirming what they did not accomplish but without an insult. Boi you should see the reactions. I had one guy following me for 40 something minutes before the matchmaking. The insults are always the same: kid this kid that, ez this ez that or 1v1.

In the broad sense I do agree with you, most Railgun users are toxic and it is the sad truth. But that is off topic, what I see from my perspective is that you have a very parochial mindset, such that anything that is related to Railgun would make you end up judging all Railgun users.

 

Again, as far as trick shots go, I agree with you. I do understand how someone would feel if the opponent ends up capturing a flag because of one player's naivety or utter ignorance, but then again I would ask you a question, do you think all Railgun users are like that? or perhaps you believe no other combo users behave as the above mentioned players?

True!

If you're having an impact turret in front of you, and you're using railgun, move your tank backward as you fire the shot. Impact force will be reduced that way

At last another guy who know the technique is here

If a cat bit a person will you tell that all cats bite's people all time ?

That's not off-topic at all;

 

I am sure there are extremely furious players playing with other turrets aswell but with Railgun it's insane.

It's mainly the players using light hulls, Wasp and Hornet, that get extremely agressive over the stupidest things like shooting them by accident or not giving them enough room when they drive trough corridors. They shoot you and insult you and push you around.

 

Perhaps it is my approach aswell, I absolutely won't back down when someone insults me.

I say what I think but I don't insult anyone. I haven't been banned in years so I know what's possible and what's not. But I can instantly tell someone's been playing Railgun as their main weapon based on their reaction. I am always right... always.

 

-------

 

Just pay attention to what players say in the chat, start with the Silence Parkour battles where Twins/Mammoth guys use repair kits whenever they get hit by a plasma ball. They'll spam the chat full of cyrellic text and stars are all over the place; directed to one specific person most of the time. I can almost guarantee you the dude's an XP/BP player.

 

Ohh there are nice guys around. But an overall nice XP/BP player is a very rare species.

Perhaps it's the community and the extreme urge to keep their reputation high. I don't mind that at all; there are serious gamers and casual gamers... but it's stupid to insult everyone and brag on and on about something, like as if you're the kind of the battlefield. Hah!

 

Yes I do believe that Railgun users are like that; they are as population.

It is hard to not generalize the Railers if I look back at all my encounters with them over the years.

 

I also highly respect those who managed to keep their personality in the toxic environment of the light hulled Railers.

Hopefully I'll meet someone one day. With that said I also don't think people should be offended by the things I've said; unless they can relate.

Yeah I completely agree, but the real reason why railgun is used the way that isn't supposed to be used is because of the skill requirement and the fun factor.

The satisfaction of hitting those difficult shots right, using a turret in a way that it shouldn't be used is surprisingly fun.

 

The truth is railgun at anything but long ranges is outclassed by every other weapon in the game.

 

 

lmao and I really agree with the name ego-gun. Many if not all XP players are really egoistic and salty.

You have no idea about what you are saying, there are lots of Railgun users in this game and that is for a reason. At legend rank With Railgun Alt HCA it can one shot almost any hull provided they don't have protection. Explain how a turret which can destroy an entire defense within 10 seconds not good to attack with.

 

You are wrong about how you use hammer and 'eat Railguns for breakfast' and it is safe to say you have very little idea about how Railgun works. What I mean to say is given the restrictions that hammer has ( 3 shots/ 5 shots) its quite easy to not get killed by a hammer.

 

But yes, I do agree with you that Striker/Thunder/Magnum are great turrets to attack with but that alone by no means reduces the effectiveness of a Railgun in attack.

Hornet/Wasp is 2 shots (3 with rk). They rush in and charge up, I easily deflect them and chase them with the second shot. They would be dead right now if they hadn't used the rk. Assuming they actually took cover instead of blindly rushing an impact turret, I chase them around it and wait for the second shot. If they don't do it perfectly, easy miss around a corner, but if they do I just shoot them again to deflect. Even a decent smoky can do the same, railgun just isn't made for close range.

I disagree with you here. Lower ranks actually have the more number of toxic, XP/BP 'pros'.


I am an XP/BP player myself, as you know, rail4nubz. But, I like using my new M3s more than Railgun. 

 

When I need to snipe, or just want to play with Rail in a normal battle, I just equip Viking with it. I do, sometimes, attack using Railgun + Hornet. But, that at the time when the enemies are distracted enough and I have an opening to fly away. Rest of the time, it is just tearing down the enemy defence.

 

I do agree that an solo capture with XP or BP is hard. It is not impossible, though.

This shows u know nothing about railgun!

Do you have any advice or are you like 90% of the people here in not knowing what you're talking about?

And I can deflect them. I can deflect them almost every time and the ones that do hit me just die before they can fire again. Very rarely do I die to these people and when I do, It's at range.

It's not wise to rush at enemies with thunder or striker because of the self damage.

If non railgunners are dogs, then that makes the railgunners cats, doesn't it? :ph34r:

How frick shiz muffins people we've established that...

 

SOME RAILGUNS ARE FLIPPING NOOBS

 

It doesn't mean that they're all noobs but a crap ton of them are, I personally like playing with the smokey, and like that dude with the hammer I totally, "EAT RAILGUNS FOR BREAKFAST"

 

Just sayin' but at least at my rank 90% of all XP combo people are total noobs

Time will teach any player how to get better, and they can only learn in battle - so you will see noob with that combo in your battle and in your team. But you will see also other noobs with other turrets: isida not healing team mate and hammer with one shot left charging the base.

Rail is a a tricky turret, slow shooting but powerful. If you miss you lose time and xp. 

You can't own too many turret in the game if you want to stay ahead of the game as a free-player, so once you bought a turret you are committed to learn fast.
