The Next patch is lame

Re: The Next patch is lame

Hell yeah for the removal of prone hopping. Today i got PWNT by some1 who was doing it. I emptied a whole clip and he just kept on hopping till he got near me and killed me with shock paddles. The most frustating moment ever

Re: The Next patch is lame

i'll belive the fixes when its out and fixed. Last patch they said they were going to fix a bunch of **** they didn't do anything about. Looks like a good list except for the helo rockets going to 8.

Re: The Next patch is lame

-

Helicopter now carry 8 missiles rather than 14
Ok so now the Helo's have to go get ammo more, waste of time - lame and unnecessary

- TV-Guided missile now have a shorter range
They couldn't hit anything before -lame and unnecessary

- Hit points on all air vehicles has been reduced
I like, must better but still it is to easy to just keep shooting at them and blowing them out of the sky -lame and unnecessary

- AA missile lock has been improved
Finally, they do something on this problem, most likely improved to hit teammates lol - Good Change

- Support kits have had their primary weapons adjusted for accuracy
They were very unaccurate - Good change

- Sniper kits have had their primary weapons adjusted for accuracy

All that I hate! I like seeing dumb support noobs that can't hit $hit.Learn to use a machinegun (like i did)Snipers are fine! People just don't pick up a 50cal and and hit a target half a mile away.Why do people complain about the AA guns? I hit the helis just like the AA's hit me when I fly in a heli ( sometimes)
Practice people!If the glass was not bulletproof I would don't care about the hit points on vehicles but that's also ghay.8 missiles! ghay!

This thread
-lame and unnecessary

Tweeks are needed... but I think by now most of the thinking population around here sees that what they proposed is a little on the short sighted side.

Time will tell.

In the mean time, how about some less worthless discussion?

Re: The Next patch is lame

Best said that we shouldn't bitch before we see it, but since opinions are flying around I might as well add mine.

- Hit points on all air vehicles has been reduced
I'll have to wait for this one. I only really bother with the transport choppers-- I guess we'll just have to see how much has been reduced.

- AA missile lock has been improved
Ooh la la.

- Support kits have had their primary weapons adjusted for accuracy
Not a *necessary* change, but I just can't seem to hit beans with the PKM. I don't care what people say, a deployed light machine gun is deadly. And it never unbalances things. They were great in DoD, they're great in SOCOM. Support won't be so rare now.

- Sniper kits have had their primary weapons adjusted for accuracy
SVD is horrible. I'm sorry but other games have had it fairly powerful and it just never seems to break gameplay. Should be good!

- Anti-Tank kits have had their primary weapons adjusted for accuracy
MP5 deserves justiccccceee..

- "Dolphin Diving" is no longer possible
plz.

- Players can no longer jump and shoot at the same time
Uh huh.

- "Prone Spamming" is now fixed
That's the stuff.

- "Sprint exploit" is now fixed
Sure, why not.

- The Sa80 weapon has been improved
When I first got it, I was raping- Seems to have lost it's touch, so sure.

- The G3A3 weapon has been improved
Totally unecessary. This means more people using my baby!

- Reload while sprinting has been enabled
Said before, this was easily compromised.

- Chinese and MEC APCs can now shoot through penetrable materials
Can't they do this already? I've gotten killed through fences by APCs and it's annoying. No.

- Damage decreased for the M134
Sure.

- Medic defibrillator paddles have been adjusted. They now reload while not in use.
Totally unecessary. I found it took just a *little* bit of skill to let them recharge before you put them back right after a review, it takes like an extra half of a second if you time it right, and once in the habit it's kind of professional. C'mon, let's think about how hard it would be to do the whole paddle to primary weapon switch IRL and how easy it is to revive people in the game. Guess it can't hurt, but why?

Re: The Next patch is lame

- AA missile lock has been improved
Will see, the last fix did nothing to the stingers, just the actually AA tanks. Their fixed, this one better be for stingers.

What are you on about!? The mobile AA is just as screwed up as the fixed AA. I like driving the mobile AA and I use the cannons as my primary weapon. I only fire the missiles once the target is trying to escape and they almost always miss.

- Sniper kits have had their primary weapons adjusted for accuracy
Great for the m95, and svd.

The Type 88 is effectively identical to the SVD aside from the scope. Don't you think it deserves the same treatment as the SVD.

- Anti-Tank kits have had their primary weapons adjusted for accuracy
Let me say F**King finally man, the mp5, pp19 damn they can be horribly inaccurate. I finally learn to control the pp19 but there is no hope for the mp5. This is a totally great fix. I like the dao but im not a shotgun type person. lol

Totally agree with that one.

- The G3A3 weapon has been improved
Why it was perfectly accurate before, and truly amazing, but a tune up is fine.

Perfectly accurate!?! Truly amazing?!? What have you been smoking? It is less accurate than the already low accuracy of the AKs, has no GL and a reduced clip size and total bullets. Not what I would call truly amazing.

Re: The Next patch is lame

Seriously, the LMGs don't need to be changed. More people usin my baby. They're good now, the MG36 really opened my eyes to how good support can be. ANyways, if u really want th emost accurate discription of "pronespamming" here goes, it's like this, it loks like ur levitating up and down, but ur prone all the time. That sounds cheasy, but for everybody who has seen it, it's how it's like.
