ok how the hell did DICE not see this as a huge problem? i just got done getting raped at white pass with 12 out of 13 deaths coming from noobtubers from mainly close range. i was soooo pissed that i quit and will not play until the noobtube is seriously nerfed. i hope any future FPS game does not have the noobtube as a weapon it has been nothing but problematic for every decent gamer out there. i cannot stand it when i loose 9 time out of 10 in a fight because they just whip out the noobtube and blast their feet to kill me. unbelievable. shame on ea. shame on DICE. shame on you skilless bastards.

Re: 40mm grenade spam
Yup... Just been playing in a server where EVERYONE had either M95, nubetube at close then finish off with a couple of sprays to the face, or the CG with rocket upgrade... It's worse on Rush, defending, and your team sucks; the other team just base rapes from THEIR base with explosives.....
I'm kinda leaning toward the same as you - or until I can figure out wtf is going on with my computer

Re: 40mm grenade spam
I counter the TOOB with my Gustav! It's true though GL and Gustav is killing everything that's why I play hardcore. In hardcore you can usually take out the dude before he can react with your guns, in normal mode he can survive almost your whole clip and then react to toobing you killing you instantly. Yeah the tube is stronger in in hardcore but your guns do more damages as and it at least gives you a little chance to kill them first.Comment

Re: 40mm grenade spam
It's starting to leak over into HC though, which is leading me into a sense of "there's no where to hide"
Can't escape the toobers no more...Comment

Re: 40mm grenade spam
I have found a counter to it. You can tell the class for the most part by what the enemy is wearing. Kevlar and goggles? Yep it's assault. When i see this, and i know the 40mm is coming, i try and rush towards them making their shots land behind me. Inside a building is a different story. Slowly but surely there will be a counter and you will be able to adapt. The same way people adapted to c4 throwing Spec Ops in BF2.Comment

Re: 40mm grenade spam
At close range the counter is a pump-shottie or the pellet-tube. Both will kill in one shot if you and the server can agree long enough to register the hits.Comment

Re: 40mm grenade spam
Counter noobtube with Gustav, counter Gustav with M60, counter M60 with nootube. See, the game is balanced

Re: 40mm grenade spam
They should've made the GL difficult to use like in BF2 with small splash damage. You had to either hit them directly with it or hit the ground within a foot of their feet.Comment

What's the point of a game marketed with heavily destructible environment but gives scant explosive to be spammed?Comment

Re: 40mm grenade spam
Yes and when you throw in the lag that is always prevalent (for me that is ) game is no fun..................... plus damn kiddies with their aimbots!Originally posted by groundedzeroYup...

Re: 40mm grenade spam
its really bad on that map, but not so much in others.
in a map with a lot of houses, explosives rule. wide open maps they don't.

Re: 40mm grenade spam
this is what is broken with this game right now. they didnt add 40 or so guns just so that 3 overpowered guns will be used by 90% of the players. i think a fix to this is to get rid of stat tracking. if those damn kids weren't so focused on their KDR or rank they might play with some sportsmanship.Originally posted by InfernalisCounter noobtube with Gustav, counter Gustav with M60, counter M60 with nootube.

Re: 40mm grenade spam
interestingly, i haven't seen much 40mm these days but it could be that i've been playing on hardcore mostly.
i see way more gustavs. perhaps it's because 40mm has no crosshair thingy on HC?Comment
