Have been on OT kick as of late and i have notice that the demos and GLs are so mute now adays, before the first stop they would make is down to the workshop… now i have to go out and hunt for them, to give them their daily bread.
whats more with the manifest seemly being buggy right now ( some times it doesn’t update what Spec kit the specs took) i can’t even seem to find out what to make in the first place. With how mute they are i can’t just ask on comms, so i have been having to run around the hanger or the alamo to see if we even have a demo.
Its rather bizarre… i am used to mutes but not this often even then back in the day the mutes would still check out the workshop to see if am in or not before walking off.
where has the gluttonous demos that seemly use 3 rockets per minute and chew through their stock faster then i can feed them gone?
you could give them capped rockets with negative falloff and theyd still complain about them anyways, swearing they sprite clicked, and the damage was bad
Eh not really a issue anymore now adays as the rockets and nades have gotten nerfed a long time ago. They are are much more in line with Base line stuff now, of course it still more powerful but not that much more so.
…man i miss the days of mini OB being able to be stuffed into a rocket… funny days that was.
I do. When I get OT hades it’s time for Jesus to take the wheel.
That little voice in the back of my head that tells me to be a caring and compassionate adult is silenced by I doooont want to set the world on fiiiiire.
GL OT nades are bad because they’ll wipe the front
OT Rocket nerf made OT rockets bad
Plus
OT Rocket nerf seems to have made OT deserted meaning only newer players or no players are in OT, although the nerf coincided with me moving to playing on lower pop times
Considering chain HEDP stunning is so easy to do especially when XX-329 Spitters practically offer themselves for it, Im amazed no one plays GL that much.
The only downside is your ammo is probably the hardest to get, with it being expensive for req and all, and a good chain stun taking 2-3 HEDPs per kill
OTs are just too slow tbh. Every time I asked an OT for something they say “In like 30 min” or straight up ignore me. Like dawg 30 min in current meta is time until win or loose if you look at a common round timer. When that 7 OT rockets will arrive I will either be dead in the hive, dead on the ground or alive with a marine major in the bag. Pestering them is just too much of a gamble.
But at the same time I might have gotten unlucky and never meet a good OT in my entire playtime, or the fact that I’m just a rifleman main and OTs would rather prioritize specs (50/50 on if they will be alive when the OT ammo arrives) then all other 20 riflemen.
I’ve seen way too many GL specs tossing their launcher away because they run out of grenades and know req can’t order more in any year soon. This is the reason why I try to tell OT to focus on grenades when I know one is on, at least it’s SOMETHING than having nothing, besides sure they take like a second or two to detonate but M15s can be shot from the Spec’s GL.
I also will try and save cash for two orders of M15s for the GL spec if I have no other grenades. Shooting M15s are super powerful
It depends on when you ask. as many times the issues lay in not the ability of the OT but a issue of chem stocks. Many of times the docs are ether busy with dealing with hugged or catatonic. At the same time the Lab is much to busy to get you your refill.
Now this is a issue that happens to me a lot… i make new set of rockets only to find out the demo has been capped or gibbed just after i got the rockets ready to be sented.
