warping formula:

z axis movement * speed

I don't see the problem with surgiles. I have never, ever, had a problem with surging. The only time a surger has had the advantage on me or my squad, is if he surges right into a clot of us in a tower fight / indoors. And since our orbs are so slow, it's insta-grief. But that doesn't bother me, as I have patience in these situations and wait until I know I will hit him. Maybe if I had an MCG or JH, I might see differently about surgers, but with a lasher, you're guaranteed to miss alot of the shots anyways and at least get lash damage.

I use surge, yes, because I always prefer speed over anything. It is a great way to escape if need be, get out of the way of vehicles if need be, or to surge around a corner, whip out a deci., and have some barbecued MAX. Also, I'm a CE whore, even with a Rexo on...I use boomers as much as possible, they're just too fun.

There isn't a specific problem with it.. it just need to be fixed in the warping department. As for jumping in a tower, it is like a bouncy ball in the halls and I hope that gets fixed. Jumping in PS seems alot like jumping in DAoC if they haven't fixed that problem yet.

yesterday I felt sorry for a group of surgile jh's I was up defending a tower with some of my outfit guys and lets put it this way, 4 maxes guardgin the stairs up, 6 MCG's guarding with the maxes and for someone getting up and over em, well it was a slaughter, lol they didnt stand a chance, only a handful ever got past the pounders/bursters and only one managed to surge past the wall of lead coming at him from the MCG's. He went past us to the CC and got pwned by one of my squad who had a jackhammer

the ultimate payback heh. If u get a group of organized guys, surgiles are no problem, and if u have good reflexes, a spray and pray weapon and surge of your own, they are just faster moving dead men lol.

If they cant fix the warping, a tempory fix until they do would be to make jumping with Surge on cost 50 points of stamina, they can do the little jump up and bounce around in the ceiling bit, then they land and cant do it again. Means the surgiles wont be able to kill tons of people, simply because they have HA and Surge.

I know the devs Read these boards, i think its a good idea. Opinions?

Yes. I don't like it when people hop around like Killer Death Bunnies. It just doesn't seem right.....
