Feedback and Suggestions / Re: Call for Gunner Ammo Ideas
« on: August 15, 2014, 12:40:20 pm »
not ammo but:
give gunner an extra repair tool
gunner would surely be used at least a little bit more?
either that make engis pacificists who cant stand to damage other ships, and/or can only use default ammo,
and/or since they are unskilled make them more inaccurate on guns?

I know it's been long
Since another post, oh well
I enjoy Haiku.
Banshee, flamer, mine
Incendiary'd be great
Hi, welcome to cake.
Getting on aft guns.
*sigh* I'm getting on aft guns.
Getting on aft guns.
Triangle Pyra.
Green flare like all-seeing eye.
Illuminati.
Love is like a mine.
Beautiful yet rather mean.
Harsh world killed spire.
Level one pilot:
"I'm going for kero turn."
Where are my engines?
Hull armour is down.
Where is that mortar, come on.
Competitive match.
They tell of a game.
With friends, laughs and so much fun.
Guns of Icarus.

(somewhat of a paraphrase)
We need to stay together like HRA. We need to wait for them to come to us. We need to be the waves. We need to let them come in and wash over us. Wash over us... wash over us. ..Okay i don't know where this analogy is going..
Let's kill them.

« on: August 12, 2014, 05:47:45 pm »
Having a single ship build that can strip most hulls with a single mag of one gun and kill the ship with a single mag of the other. This ship would be overused everywhere (both in pubs and competitively) and be really really boring after a while. Oh wait.
Sass aside: ships can run out of fuel, guns can run out of available rounds. I.e. 8 tanks of flamer ammo later you can't shoot anymore.
Oh and a new engi tool: it's a mallet with a spanner's cooldown.

Gameplay / Re: Balance ideas for Pyramidion and Junker
« on: July 25, 2014, 05:07:29 am »
I for one am so ready for a change to the pyra.
I am absolutely so sick of being able to predict a loadout as soon as i see a pyramidion. As well as pretty much expecting to see pyramidions whenever I play. It's getting a little bit boring to be totally honest. Talking of boring, I agree with everyone about engineering on a pyramidion being far too easy. For me engineering is about running around like a mad man during a firefight having to make split second decisions on what to repair etc. and therefore feeling really rewarded for manging to stay alive. This simply does not happen on a pyramidion.
As for junkers i agree with what has been said about junkers only being good with the correct crew. Their massive balloon is a massive counter to them and a buffed artemis w/ burst is pretty effective against it's closely spaced components on bottom deck (whatcha gonna do with like 1 gun and no main engine).
I do think that the hull 'sweet' spot is pretty stupid though either remove it or give the underused (UU) ships 'sweet' spots too.
In summary. Nerf pyra- engi too easy. Junkers are okay. UU ships will be good with sweet spots.
And some thoughts about other ships.
Spires are too squishy.
Galleons are too easy to disable and the view whilst pilot is quite obstructed, they are fat and slow, but perhaps too much so?.
Squids die too easily.
Goldfish are good on the whole tbh. Just co-ordinate with your co-engi. Since the side guns are by no means vital. Leaving 2 engis to do things.
Mobulas cannot cope under fire as there is only realistically going to be one engi on hull/balloon. Making them also too squishy. (Alternately pyra can still have a gun firing and still be tanky.)
Oh and yeah Phoenix claw OP.
Feel free to let me know if I'm thinking about this all wrong cos I probably am.

that moment when you stay up till almost 2am to read every post in this thread
that moment when your co engi can chem spray
that moment when spud harpoons you through a minefield and you die instantaneously
that moment when you willingly charge through your own mine field, and die instantaneously
that moment when teamwork is so OP that you can win 600-0 on capture point with no deaths , with an entire crew of gunners
