El Jacko Hammero

[TheN00b]

I saw this one thread that favored replacing the Jackhammer in NC HA with a large, slow-firing railgun that was affective at medium range. Seems to me like that would fit the HA mold more than the Jackhammer does.

And you got this info from ... where? I just went thru the dev tracker for that info - afaik, that's the latest.

I completely agree. Nothing good comes out of mobile weapons that can be carried by infantry which kill you in a second indoors. I loved it when HA universally sucked and all fights were done primarily with MA weapons. HA completely sucks.

The stationary, deployable weapons would be a great replacement for HA.

Hmmmm we got some good ideas going on here. I like that idea about having some group of deployable weapons such as machine gun'ss and mortar's. I also liked the idea about the Rail gun. that would be alot cooler than the JH. but i don't see what all the complaining is about. i used the JH before and i don't see what it has over the minigun or the lasher. sure it's got that burst fire thingy and is really good in close quarters but so are two or three TR guy's carying miniguns. in any case, having bunkers that need to be captured to create a lattice is a super idea. if SOE ever asks if we want that ill be sure to say hell yeah!

God i love fights when HA is not involved, We had one last week, we were the last NC on teh cont and had the tower out in the middle of noware and a samll band of VS kept somaing and we heald out for quite awhile, no HA involved(a max one each side though) it was so awsome

I don't like Heavy Assault either. More credits for a bigger gun is all it is. Play with the little vehicles all you want, the real fight is always inside the base, where close-quarters combat is unavoidable. The 'tactical' applications of Heavy Assault basically include capping off a Quake mentality or a warping exploit.

[Happy lil Elf]

Totally agree on the stationary weapons as a replacment for HA. I don't see it happening unfotunately.

Dumbass, you do not even have a single fact to support your argument. Do you think that is what they meant by "most powerful"?

How the fuck did you even get to be a moderator??

[MrCovertMan]

removing HA would make: NC for their beloved jackhammer. TR cause they only recently got a decent HA. and the VS cause honestly alot of us never really liked our HA
hey ya know what....maybe we should remove HA
right now friendlies run around a recently capped base with a looted jackhammer and start firing into the air near crowds to make people freak out

[Veteran]

Yah, that's some pretty poorly thought-out commentary, Vash.

By strongest he means hardest hitting

OMG, you people! i can't belive your still arguing about how powerfull the jack hammer is. start up a new charecter, use the JH. IT'S NOT THAT GOOD! i have the cert, I don't use the stupid gun. I will stick with my gauss. let's talk about how dumb it is that you cant go prone! WTF is up with that, you could gain a seriouse tactical advantage if you could lie down in the battle field, SOE hear me!

ok so the NC are about power. the TR are about more = better. the Vs are about versatility and or mobility. so why give the NC a TRIPLE barreled shotgun? I thought the TR was for more = better. Remove the 2 extra barrels, lower it's refire and beef up the Jackhammers damage to = 1.5 to 1.75 sweeper shots.
