I thought horimiya was fast

Phone camera recording of a video clip you already have

Started filming vertically, turned it sideways, uploaded it vertical

doesn't seem right that you can beam people with galil/m4 at DMR range though. at that point what's the difference

eh I would argue that no knobs needed to be turned for SVD, SKS, probably the M14. I don't think these guns were even close to overpowered comparatively speaking.

I don't know the actual shots-to-kill numbers because I haven't bothered looking since day 1 of S2. I just recall it being like 5 shots to chest on unarmored or T1 armor people and with the huge recoil it's almost impossible to land that many. You have to double or triple headshot, most likely.

since they're effectively unusable right now, overshooting the mark from 3 to 4 (33%) or 3 to 5 (66%) are huge increases in TTK and decreases in effectiveness.

percentage-wise I bet the recoil increase is also significant. feels like double or more what it was before. these are big changes especially multiplicatively with how they interact with each other

I feel like some could be 3 shot kills and be fine, but keep the recoil. 4 on an sks or svd with a 5 round mag doesn't make any to me anyway. Balance wise, high recoil, mid-high damage feels like the good archetype where DMRs should sit

no deployment or assist money right now 😢

I like combat sniping with bolt actions but I think that situation is supposed to be what DMRs are supposed to be for with their rate of fire in CQB. it's just that they suck right now.

having the Mosin be too effective on high tier helmets would probably be pretty toxic for balance.

maybe slightly too much on DMR

understatement? it takes like 4 body shots on armor out of the 5 shot mags with atrocious recoil

basically the issue is that the DMRs aren't capable of doing their jobs effectively for the kind of engagement OP wants

in times when I stick with LB instead of doing Lakota logi, runs I find there's always at minimum 2 littlebirds still on rotation dropping people. usually 2 passengers at a time and sitting at spawn waiting like taxis at an airport pickup zone

agree it's a problem but gotta do something about grief potential

like a dude could mine your own roads lol

claymores are TK machines too

Directions unclear, minigun littlebirds now unlock flares at pilot level 45

11 levels is pretty obscene

you could get the point in the first few lines

I'll think about it when they set a fixed gold price of 150k or something.

but it wouldn't change anything at all if you're still in the zone.

assaults get 50% CZ bonus instead of 0% bonus but they were gonna assault the FOB from that angle regardless

lol well the idea is to not penalize assault for trying to attack multiple sides of a fob built on the edge of the zone so yeah just put in whatever economic penalties and limited range will make it not worth it. 50% penalty for 50 meters, whatever. I'm sure it'll be unpopular for logi drops too

75% but zero passive zone income seems like a lot to give up, about $16k minimum potentially double or triple in a long game

and make drills not work. idk how they function in at out of zone fob right now if at all, never seen anybody try

and the range would be only like 50-100 meters for that tier to allow assault and insertions to operate. beyond that make it -75% or zero, doesn't matter

good news, it does!

Bitrate looking like 2006 on my mobile app anyway when you're schmoving

yeah we fly paper buckets

make it 25% penalty and you'll only see it for temporary excursions hopefully

not thinking through their decisions (or likely testing them) is what put us in this position. I don't have much faith that another accelerated cycle is going to fix that deficiency

the Blue bonus was a disaster. what were they even thinking?

the universal .308 change, DMRs, LMGs, and miniguns are a disaster when only BMR was a problem.

Logistics streaks are miserable.

Minigun heli got hit with 6+ nerfs and stealth nerfs instead of just a couple of key ones

I will still play because I'm still able to find fun being a taxi, but if they make it worse instead of better I'll do it a whole lot less

what the heck is the dirty heli glass

Thermals are still a problem as expected

i do like the medic change. defibs were too good and medic kits are still effective.

but we do, used to be like 14k for killing arty and now its like 10k

or are we talking about different things

I mean the point is to add rewards for out of zone stuff and not reduce them. whatever existing bonuses we get from killing or using artillery would remain the same

start at like -25% sounds reasonable

like sure an annoying recon could do it for a bit, but permanently is a big hit. and it's not so bad for assault who are just doing it temporarily to get into the fob

and it would be enough of a penalty that fob builders won't want to push it out permanently. probably. and they wouldn't get the passive zone bonus anyway

I've spent thousands and thousands of dollars in advance just for this very situation!

meanwhile I full on rammed a rocket heli last night in my Lakota and somehow I'm the one that died and not him
