fixers, speeders....

Ok fellow fixers, enforcers, and speeders. how have you guys been doing since the update? Since we were the ones most affected by nerf, how has it been in battles?
I for one heavily relied on repair box, pulse, and overboost. So basically having to change entire gameplay. it is what it is i suppose.

 

You spelled enforcer wrong.

 

good point lmao

 

Cheeky edit I can live with the shield nerf, but the overboost is killing me. I'm constantly being outrun by mk6 shooters and defenders in my little mk5 enforcer.

 

2k infamy Enforcer, the update hasn't changed my game at all. I remembered that the Shield stun works the same as a regular stun, so if I get hit during that 4 seconds it takes the stun off. Getting hit multiple times isn't new, so the only thing I'm dealing with is the Overboost nerf. I had literally just found an Epic Turbo just a few days before the patch hit, so my reaction is a sort of a "meh". I'm moving at a reasonable speed even without an infinite Overboost. I'm having to use it more strategically now, but that's about it. I haven't taken it off.

 

I find myself waiting for my overboost's cooldown a lot when I need it but it's not gamebreaking. Actually hit my personal best with mk4 speeder after update. Went from 1600 to 2000

 

I use to be able to kill almost all speeders in one on one battles before the update with my shooter. Now they are kicking my ass big time. Now this update has created a herd mentality for defenders and shooter to stick together. Also, there is more camping and camping in any game makes that game worse.........Absolutely a Terrrible Update.

 

oh

the speeders were supposed to be nerfed, why is it harder to kill them? Also, not all aspects of the update are bad, love the new battle stats

 

Maybe all the noob speeders are gone and only the ones who have only used speeder are sticking to it

 

Getting hit multiple times is a luxury I can't afford.
At 3200 - 3500 infamy and under 3000 hp, two hits usually does me in, and it's not easy dodging when you're the slowest ship on the water for 5 seconds at a time.
The shield stun doesn't help much either, since my rare 3 shield only blocks one shot.
Maybe 1 game in 5 I play with teams below 4000 infamy and it's actually fun.

 

thats rough mate, but congrats for getting up there

 

It does seem like people are camping more often than they did before the update. I've been doing it more, too, probably because getting around is so much more difficult without the spammy Overboost. I'm even considering switching out for a Sniper.

 

Oh I know what you guys mean about the camping. Just got destroyed by torps, long range mortar, and sniper guns in a battle. Couldn't touch the other team they were so far away.

 

Unfair mm and star distribution. I *LOVE* being a fixer. .____.

 

The distribution between healing and damage isn't unfair. Healing just counts for less because it's way easier to do. It's always been that way. What made you guys think that healing was 1-to-1 with damage?
