1.3 General Speculation

(1/38) > >>

N-Sunderland:
We don't need the Mobula and New Build threads to get clogged with general speculation about 1.3, so here we go. Speculate.

Captain Smollett:
With the heavy clip change and the fire extinguishing/chem spray nerf coming at the same time will gunners become the new meta or will three engineers become necessary?

N-Sunderland:
I tested greased on the gat yesterday and it seemed to be terrible. Too many missed shots. On the other hand, heatsink will once again be important for keeping flames at bay. It'll take some testing to figure out.

Byron Cavendish:
Let's talk about achievements. First, I hope the bugs will be fixed. For me, I almost cannot level past 8 on pilot because many are capture 50 or 100, white whaler, etc which are bugged. Secondly, I hope they change either the wording on defend, or better yet change it to mean killing a ship while you are on a capture point. Let's face it, as it works now, it's almost impossible to complete 50 defends with a galleon.

N-Sunderland:
I don't care too much for the achieves myself.

I'm just having a whole lot of trouble figuring out the meta. Flamethrowers meta? Yes. Mine launchers? Yes. Mobula? Maybe.

But what will happen to gatflak? Heavy clip will still be necessary for longer ranges, but you'll be dropping so much DPS from that fire rate decrease. You'll need to get up in their face to actually have the gat do something (you need to get, so, so close up to make the gat hit a decent amount without heavy). For that reason, plus the flak losing effectiveness from the heavy nerf, maybe we'll see mortars being used more often? But then you're also putting yourself at risk against flamethrowers.
