    Mortar, Grenade, Blaster Updates

    Here's what I think should happen to the GL. Since most people now think of using it as a chasing weapon, I think that it could fulfill that role, without being overpowered, in a different situation. Chasing does not just consist of killing the flag carrier, with a certain type of weapon. The...

    Mortar, Grenade, Blaster Updates

    I did not test out all the weapons, except a couple or more. Firstly, I am liking the new GLII(obviously, this isn't surprising at all), but it still felt out of place. With the damage values of the old GLII, it's definitely making a difference, but also makes the cluster side of it kinda...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    When the net fix was done, the Grenade Launcher felt a bit different ever since(like most other things). I know this does not count as a change done by you, but it's a change nevertheless. You know the second one. I understand your bluntness, and will not take your comment, as an insult. But...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    Please stop changing the whole meaning of my post, by just posting a part of it. I was talking about the grenade arc, which was changed twice now, and hence I made that comment.

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    To Gheist. I actually really have nothing to say to that. You aren't a developer, so you don't know any better than I do. I look at you and will treat you to be at the same level as I am. You are no judge of my arguments, or to how much they can be accounted for, as facts. I know the developers...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    From the way, you make your posts Gheist, I see that you do not want a 'no' for an answer. I didn't know answering your questions with facts, is to be taken as a rant. Well, you can think of that, however you like. As for playing the whole game with the Launcher, it was to see how it works, and...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    So all that damage, all that radius, just for that "Aaah" effect of yours. You know it actually is "*Shoot Shoot Shoot*, Aaah, got to get away(0.5 second panic maybe), *got away*, *Shoot Shoot Shoot*, let's go eat some Sentinel". This isn't Tribes, where people cannot stop themselves from moving...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    I've played four full games with only the Cluster Grenade today, and roles really, did not come into mind. It was already tough to adjust shots for the grenades to land where they're supposed to, but to convert it, into a Compressed Cluster?(is what I call, when referring to the method of...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    Most people here, believe that the Grenade Launcher stands out, as the most easiest close range damage dealer in the game. Me, and many others listed the limitations of the original from in detailed manner, and they say that even after adding the newer weapons(where in, some may even have...

    That GL...

    In my opinion, these changes would render the weapon completely useless. I play in Public Test servers, every once in a while, and I rarely(if at all) see a person, chasing with the Grenade Launcher. They'd rather use a weapon like Skybolt, which would cover distance to the target much faster...

    Great Job, Molten. I see a lot of happy faces.

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    I didn't mean offense, I should've placed my words properly. What I meant was that, being so few of us, as we are, I expect you guys to lean towards the people with "I'd rather use the weapon for just chasing" opinions. Unfortunately, this is not a whole class, but just a weapon being nerfed, so...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    Oh the splash damage, still doesn't make sense. It's a grenade, for god's sake. It's meant to have higher splash and damage, compared to the Rocket Launcher. "The grenade hardly arched at all" when it was used to MA(that too, under 50m), not while ground pounding. Trust me, when I say that you...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    Are you talking about the combo people did when they land both the Hand Grenade and grenade(Grenade Launcher) on the ground, on the same time? If so Deadguy, this isn't really fair. You say that the ground pounding with Hand Grenade + grenade is overpowered, yet you forget that, that problem...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    Yes, the grenades fall very quickly, but I believe that should only happen when the player stays still while shooting them. With the Grenade Launcher, back in IA(and even with the old L:O Launcher), I used to be able to add my own forward momentum to affect the grenade distance. But now, no...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    Ok, so I've spent some more time with the Grenade Launcher variants, and I wasn't very impressed. The new normal Grenade Launcher not only does lesser damage compared to the original one, but as I've said in my previous post, the grenades require too much height, for them to explode. The bounce...

    Big Fat Weapon Update on Public Test

    I appreciate the additions you guys made to this game, but there is something I would like to ask the developers. Can we not change the traits of the vanilla weapons too much? I've tried out the new grenade launcher(the one without the cluster), and it didn't feel right. The explode distance has...

    New and Improved

    Major Matt Mason, if you've really adored the freedom of movement, and loved the movement physics of Tribes 2, then you'll love this game, as it is centered around that aspect. Simply put, the concept of skiing and flying was taken from Tribes, and is perfected here.

    Clearing The Only Limitation To Character Movement Physics.

    Oh no, I'm actually quite practical when it comes to breaking down on ideas, tactics and strategies for the game. If anyone can provide valid arguments, like limitations to the idea or how it may negatively affect the game, I will be more than happy to oblige, and will try to find solutions to...

    You don't. Read the Implementation part in my 2nd post, and thanks.
