Sents aren't made to be used for capping. End of story.
I'm reading the sequel ATM. It's quite good.
good sents like Pullute can do all of the above i mean do i have to remind you of the skills of Trooper in any position using sent or Karnage if u take the time and learn to use sent correctly u will be able to do all of the above and do it very well oops almost forgot application1 ask any of these for advice i'm sure they would be willing to help
I'm well aware of the Sent's capabilities, and I never said that capping or chasing cannot be done with the class. I've seen it done, and done well.
However, there are things not even the best Sent players can fully overcome. Gaining and maintaining speed takes a lot of forthought. If anything happens during a route or chase that you didn't anticipate at least a few seconds in advance, the chances are good that things will go south.
Regular OD might give chasing/capping Sents just a bit more freedom in this area. If the OD damage were high enough-maybe about the damage Raiders take or possibly more-I don't think if would be that huge of an advantage, especially considering that you'd be sacrificing the ability to use iOD.
Work or not, it would be interesting at least to see how it would change things in the game.
I agree, but why make them prefer those certain classes even more?
Seeing as how these maps favor the Sent with its current abilities, using a loadout with iOD would probably be preferable to a loadout with regular OD. In that case, the Sent really wouldn't be gaining more of an advantage that it already has.
Probably, anyway. Choosing regular OD might end up to be the better option. Who knows.
