how do i post that picture in-game?
It's all part of the big illusion that we perpetuate on ourselves and in turn is perpetuated upon us. When we believe, we engage the illusion. When we stop believing we shatter the illusion and shatter ourselves in the process. Because we are, part of it.

liquidv2 wrote on Mon, 28 May 2012 16:59 | and on the topic of volt auto rifles - why shouldn't they get a range increase? in order for them to do damage to infantry they are just about within pistol range
in order for them to damage an enemy vehicle they have to be dangerously close while exposing themselves for prolonged periods of time
if the driver of the vehicle isn't a complete, helpless idiot then the Mobius or Mendoza is in serious danger
and yet they cost the same as a PIC, rav, havoc, or sakura
figure that shit out; giving them a range bonus just makes sense, if you care about making them worth their cost
|
Suppose the range was increased for them, I think they can have more "say" in the field but they already do and they have to get a bit closer...for example, helping the sieging team on Under and Field near the base entrances.
I wonder what WW was thinking when they made those three top-tier characters. Hav/Sak and PIC/Rave's roles are quiet simple. Was the Volt then just a beefed-up general purpose "nuisance flusher?" Maybe a nice weapon to use against both infantry and vehicles with a range limitation albeit with supreme speedy damage.
I was thinking what would happen if Volts were given PIC range...tunnels would become crowded, and the small stock maps would be a Volt kill-zone lol. Maybe a lower cost seems a better idea? How about 800 credits?
btw, didn't Spoony adjust the pricing of some chars? I have to find that post of his.
edit: found it:

I've taken it upon myself to tweak the costs of most of the infantry. I feel most of them ought to be cheaper than they are. As follows:
GDI/Nod Officer: 50
Tib Sydney: 50
Rocket Officer: 150
Patch: 200
Laser Chaingunner: 250
Deadeye/Black Hand Sniper: 400
Mobius/Mendoza: 600
PIC Sydney/Raveshaw: 800
Havoc/Sakura: 800
Usual prices for Chem Warrior, Gunner, Stealth Black Hand and Hotwire/Technician.

600 credits!!! While this was for CW, it would be good to try this in a public servers for a weekend maybe? Maybe Jelly or n00bstories.

Tbh, on maps like Field and Under, Volts would still be at a disadvantage. They aren't going to be able to shoot across the map, so snipers can still easily pick them off. They're still going to be difficult to use if the other team has a few snipers on it, but they won't be basically useless like they (almost) are now.

Yeah, sadly :/ I see Mobius used, somewhat, frequently. I rarely ever see Mendozas being used, though. And whenever I do choose to use them, I usually end up getting ganged by a group of snipers :/
