Empire Gunships

That’s the job of the PHOBOS. If you grab a Wolf-M, your obvious place IS in the front lines. Same for the King Kastor and the Argonaut, they’re offensive Gunships.

 

The fact that you’re playing a Gunship doesn’t mean you’re zipping around on the front lines, shooting everything in the face, only to get shot in return, no. The fact of the matter is that you didn’t know how to play with the Phobos with your usual tactics and made zero efforts to figure anything out. You want our advise, instead of babbling on the forums? Try it the way I mentioned. You will love the Phobos and want nothing else in T3.

 

So because I didn’t have a good time reaching max synergy with the Phobos, you’re going to assume “I didn’t know how to play with the Phobos” and assume i “made zero efforts”. Both assumptions are wrong. I didn’t like it, and that’s all there is to it.  Trying to turn it into some personal fault of mine isn’t going to work.  I’ve already figured out why I didn’t like it. It’s more a matter of when I didn’t like it. Example: beacon hunt. I cannot do what I want to do in beacon hunt with anything that isn’t a recon.

 

I’m not babbling on a forum. I’m deflecting insults on a forum.  Gunships are still an interest of mine. So, I want to talk about them. That’s normal.

Gunships are an interest to you, yet you have no qualms in calling it a terrible ship. One of the best Gunships in the game. Right. So tell me… what do you usually fly?

Empire recon as offense.  If I see no one else is bringing an engineer, I do it.  If I get stuck with the captain job in combat recon, I use a Jericho guard.  Recon, engineer, guard.

The Recon is a scouting ship and a debuffer. Yes, the Proxy Mines actually make it an amazing combatant, but they’re not exactly meant to be fighting. They’re the ships that go after Beacons.

 

Bringing an Engi when no one else does so is a good move, can’t say I disagree with you there, you must like being the centre of attentions in every match.

 

And a Guard as Capt-… WHAT! Guards are very easy to kill for a half organized group, nowadays. You’re just begging to get nailed in the xxxx by everything… Use the Recon for that, if you want, just wait for them to come close to you, then warp away, leaving the defenders to hunt them or get a little bit away from them to help the Frigates help you shoot them down.

A guard as captain in combat recon is not supposed to be alone in the middle of a half-organized group of enemy ships to begin with.  There’s a chance of losing combat recon in any ship. I’ve been captain in combat recon with Federation engineer too.  Won some. Lost some.  I’ve been on the winning side using a tackler as captain. It was that Jericho rank 8 one… Katana AE.

How did you even… OHwait, now I remember why. The idiots have dawned into T3, that’s why you’re winning with those ships.

 

In an organised match, rest assured you wouldn’t last 2 minutes on that Tackler or Engi.

What?

I’m not suppose to…

What?

I’m not suppose to…

No. Because unorganized groups will give zero xxxx about your Guard and just storm the front.

Rest assured, I do not really care to see you write about Star Conflict anymore.  I haven’t seen someone so desperate to come up with something to say in a long time.  Almost everything you say is some sort of compartmentalized specific scripted scenario as if everything works certain ways every time.  Star Conflict is not that simple.

Ignoring most of the discussion here ill just say that best Captain is an ECM, hands down, then imho, tanked empire command, most of other roles kinda meh. Frigs are the worst ones for a captain roles, Guard is so slow to avoid any fire, so drone->shield drains->proximity mine will probably not kill him in a single run but will slowly tear him down by 2-3 recons, and nothing you can do about it in a guard.

I’m sorry, am I somehow interfering in that perfect little life of yours that you set out to create in this game? Because you’re just one of the saddest people I’ve seen in here in a while. At least be a man and take advice from people that HAVE been playing for a LOT longer than you clearly have, you ungrateful git. Your knowledge of the game is precisely ZERO if you think you can come here and spout xxxx out of your xxxx with little to no ability to soak in any piece of knowledge we’ve given you and decided to defenestrate it like a little ingrate.

 

SC IS simple, THAT’S the problem with this game, nowadays. It’s been MADE simple so any tosser with the ability to press one button can outperform anyone else. There is no ability to do individual tactics and survivability, the MM is a xxxx joke if you solo, Ship Roles are just a bloody mess, nowadays (it actually USED to be a bit more balanced than what it is, now) and, godamn, the stupidity buffs the devs have made to gameplay (weapon modifiers, missiles, passive slots) is just nonsensical.

 

SKILL. HAS. BEEN. THROWN. OUT. THE. WINDOW. That’s why the game is boring to play.

No I don’t consider your endless nonsense to be an interference.  I think you mistakenly overestimate your impact here.  I do think you are full of b.s., and you’re having a little tantrum because I told you several times exactly why I think you have nothing to say worth reading. There’s nothing you can do to convince me otherwise at this point.  So, get over it.

Likewise. I’m glad you’re just as ridiculous and pointless as betatrash. Kindly join him and leave the game. Maybe you can start a fanclub about “how SC is the best because our reasons are the sole you should accept and give zero xxxx to anyone else”.

Did you know in a democratic system (like here) every opinion count ? It’s not because you played countless games that your opinion is better than others, it’ll be different but not better. 

Did you also known that most players don’t have the same lvl of skill than you. I still think SC needs skill (for example the most important one => aiming). 

The dev makes the game for the majority so they adapt the skill requirement to the majority of players, simple rule.

From my experience (this may not be true but I think it is) I developped a mod+campaign for fs2open. As developpers know their game, they make it hard (needs a lot of skill) because they know how to play it. As they open the game to players, they realise the majority don’t make it. So to make more money they adapt the skill requirement before going full release to attract most players.

 

If you have this in mind and look at the patches it all makes sense (except for the parts when they listened to players).

Seriously guys, if you don’t like the game, just play other game. I’m playing because I like it.

 

Bitter vets all around the forums…

Aw, did someone call you out on your crap today?  You mad? lol

 

You’re making up actual nonsense now.  As in, the way the word nonsense is defined does indeed apply to this garbage you are typing.

 

You’re just going to have to learn to accept what happened here Oryngton.

 

 

betatrash

 

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

At least someone gets the reference.

If I get stuck with the captain job in combat recon, I use a Jericho guard.

:facepalm:

 

best Captain is an ECM, hands down

:yes_yes:

 

Any interceptor works really, but ECM is best. Just know how to stick to your protectors and dodge fire.  Frigates can’t dodge fire.

He hasn’t left the game, just the forums.  At a minimum he logged in today.

Where is that jackass, nowadays, anyway? I can never find him when I try to queue snipe him…
