0 - 50% = 0.

[Sonlirain]

Demolished a scythe some time ago with the basilisk.
This thing is simply a beast now.
Oh and i bought flak armor on all of my soldiers since nano got nerfed.
Imo there should be a "composite" armor that grants 10% small arms and 25% splash resistance for those who can't decide.

Another update, with several changes.  Notable below:

    Fixed an issue causing hits to sometimes not register
    Fix for animation and movement jitter of characters at long ranges

    Basilisk/Drake adjustments. RPM lowered from 400 to 351 (previous live value was 300). Minimum cone of fire returned to its previous 0.5 degrees up from 0.3 degrees. COF bloom per shoot reduced back down to 0.1 from 0.125
    TR M3 Pounder HEG adjustment. Reduced max blast damage from 190 to 125.

The first two were annoying as hell- glad they were fixed fast.

The Basilisk and Drake needed to be nerfed- they went way into OP territory with that last patch.  The Pounder I *think* is a good change, but I have insufficient information to say for sure.

They also fixed all the broken base features like missing stairs.



In other news, if you don't have the Decimator, it's the 1 SC sale item today.
They also fixed several incorrect resist settings.

Lel, patch during EU prime time again, more whining inbound.

In other news I finally went the easy way and got thermals for my pods. 50+ NC farmed in the first fifteen minutes.

[zombat]

I'm glad I held off buying the deci when it was on sale at the start of the week.

Why do pounders keep getting nerfed?
Did they become something not awful recently?

[Toaster]

They got buffed in the big patch.

TR M3 Pounder

    Direct damage reduced from 425 to 285
    Max blast damage increased from 100 to 190
    Gravity dropped from 10 to 7.5

The direct damage is misleading, since they tweaked the resist so that they do about the same direct damage.

Do we have an outfit for b12? Im new to the game and would love to have some help learning all the quirks from this awesome community!

The Pounder I *think* is a good change, but I have insufficient information to say for sure.

Since the update about half of the TR MAXes I saw were carrying around Pounders. My outfit yesterday was talking about how fantastic they are. One of the BR100s in the outfit and one of the top players on the server said that they were better than old Fractures.

One guy in my outfit utterly destroyed a NC MAX crash before they even got to the point by locking down at the top of the building and pelting them all with Pounders.

I've been using them more often than Mercies. I've been considering getting Lockdown just to use it with Pounders. I've been laughing with vengeful glee as VS MAXes try to come at me and I drop them in three double shots.

To say the least, they were pretty good.

What's more surprising to me is not that the TR suddenly discovered that Pounders were not terrible, it's that the other factions haven't really started carrying around dual Falcons or dual Comets with regularity. They've got the same pinpoint accuracy as Pounders now, so it's not like they couldn't be abused if they wanted to.

[Toaster]

I've got dual Falcons to try that I just haven't yet, though I did have an outfitmate saying that Ravens are much better now.

Is anyone else having trouble logging in? I can't get on any of my characters.

[Biowraith]

For me it's been very slow, but it gets there eventually.

[Jim Groovester]

I'm at the character list but I'm trying to log in but it's stalling.

[Flying Dice]

I've been getting the same thing, and the few times it goes to the error report it's been G15. I went through my AV and Windows Firewall and re-enabled everything relating to the main three PS2 files (the game .exe, the launcher .exe, and the awesomium .exe), and that fixed it. With Windows Firewall, make sure both that those three are enabled in the allowed programs list and that all of them are allowed in the Inbound Rules part of the Advanced Security options.

For me, awesomium_process.exe wasn't on the allowed programs list, and the inbound rules for domain profiles were set to disallow access.

[Facekillz058]

This double XP is probably the best thing ever.
I earned about 120 certs yesterday, which let me replace the stock NC assault rifle with the Carnage, which is a complete upgrade in every sense, IMO.
I also ended up able to afford putting a compensator on it.

NC Mattherson has the only B12 outfit that I know. The only person I see from it is Kanil. Everyone split up and went to different servers because no one formed a specific outfit until several weeks after the game launched.

Toaster, Kanil, and I are all on NC Mattherson. JimGroovester was too but I think he is on TR on another server now.

On NC Mattherson, Kanil can invite you to DORF, the B12 outfit but mostly exists to have (DORF) after your name. ToastertheAwesome can invite you to TENC, who are pretty good and have a good number of people on sometimes. I can invite you to GOON, one of the two (three?) Something Awful forums outfits on Mattherson. It was the original one, but a large faction of Goons split off due to drama before I joined. The people who left are now Goku on VS Mattherson. Goon has a squad to a half platoon most nights, and on special nights a platoon or more, though that's somewhat rare.

I'm a member of Higby's Heroes (GOON) despite not having paid for SA access and so can you as I am also ranked Space Dad which has invite privileges I think.
