1.4 Squid

<< < (2/3) > >>

HamsterIV:
The squid I always viewed as the Lamborghini of GOI for the following reasons:
Not everyone is qualified to drive it.
   People who think they are qualified but are not end up in a wall.
It is used mostly to show off.
   Almost any task could be accomplished more efficiently in another vehicle, but doing it in a squid adds flare.
They break down a lot and are not considered practical for everyday use.

MightyKeb:
I agree the handling is pretty good with the accel. Previously I've found it tricky to keep good arcs while constantly flying back and forth a bit against a junker/galleon, getting my side flamer in would be a frustrating experience but now it feels like where it should be.

Now all we need is to give squid something that makes it better than blenderfish on a more obvious scale without making it infintely more similiar to it with something like, I dunno. A hull buff?

Sonaes:
I am really sad about the lower weight, making proper rams ridiculously dangerous. Its basically you either instantly lose your armor, your baloon, or worst your whole hull and die. Other than that the changes are amazing for squid piloting.

You're not squid ramming to the best of it's efficiency....
I had 4 ram kills in a 3v3 today, utilise the balloon! it does not matter it'll break, just warn your engineers it's going to happen, Gatling, hull strip, ram, reverse, rinse, repeat...

If you'r ramming with the hull, you missed. :)

Serenum:
I'm still undecided on these changes as a whole, but I will say that the hull buff was not necessary. It feels wrong to have the squid be so tanky.
Mainly a Squid pilot, by the way.
