Sick of being killed by one or two shots!

Hello All and especially the Devs,

I am so sick of being killed in just one or sometimes two shots! I have been playing Battle Bay for 4 months on and off, but I have never ever killed someone in one or two shots, NEVER!

How come I got killed 5 times in one day (I only play 10 battles a day) by rail guns or explosive cannons? I have a mk4 Shooter and my health is 2100 or thereabouts! My weapons do 400-500 max and I have to hit people with the same health as me at least 7 or 8 times, because most are not full on, often even more.

Some say 'yeah, but a rail gun takes longer to load', so? In most maps the waves are not that high just wait and kaaboom dead.

I think most would not agree with me, but I think it is super unfair to have weapons like that and I ask for a limit. No weapons which kill you in 1 or 2 shots. The game should be fair (which often isn't) and fun. And at this moment I am fed up being killed 4 or 5 battles in one or two hits. It happens almost everyday btw.

Of course this is what you get also when matchmaking puts mk1 and mk5 in one battle. I have been reading for months now there should be a minimum Infamy level for the boats, but I have never heard a Dev say 'good idea'. I hope they respond and give their opinon on that idea.

What are your thoughts!

 

Here's an idea:

MK1 max infamy: 499

MK2 max: 999

MK3 max: 1500

MK4 max: 2500

MK5 max: 3500

MK6 max: infinity

 

Thanks for your reply. You got my vote!

 

If you are getting 1-shot your infamy is too high and you will lose and get infamy-23, and the one who one-shot you gets infamy+23 and soon you won't be playing each other. It's the way the system is supposed to work.

 

Post a screenshot of you setup if you want advice

 

Really? Complaining about getting two shot and Railguns/Ex Cannons are your complaint? Not the Shooters with triple torpedoes and all torp speed talents? Not everyone and their brother having mines? Well, okay then.

 

I'm not in favor of simple solutions to this problem. Sure, putting enforced infamy ranges (you'd need both high and low) would stop the uneven gear scores but the list of other problems it would create would be endless. I still think it'd work out just fine if only they didn't make killing noobs so profitable. In my mind it's all about the incentives and rewards.

 

i guess u have no idea what is going on at low infamy, now 1200 is floor for mk 6, 1300 u see 5+ mk6 sometimes. 1000 at lesst 40 rares, 1300+ strart seeing 50 rares ad 40 epic. so make sure u are mk5 with 40 rares before breaking 1000 infamy

 

The mk6s at 3k infamy are terrible players, I cant imagine how hopeless you need to be to have sub 1500 as mk6.

 

Ever see mk6s at 100infamy lol

 

one of my mk5 frnd is near 100

 

Mk7 in tutorial mode

 

I saw a mk6 at 56 infamy just now........



See the last guy in the opponent team

 

Lel,soon his green bar will become grey

 

I have complaint also about people using all mines, torps or whatever. I just think it is unbalanced when there are weapons which kill someone in one shot.

 

Advice is much appreciated.

Here it is my setup:

 

equip big shield

 

Cool, add your inventory with relevant other items so I do suggest stuff you dont have.

My first thought is that a Shield is much more reliable then the bandage (can use both later on)

 

Sorry for the late reply, here is a screenshot of my inventory. I just changed my bandage for a shield. I am thinkg of trying Speeder or Enforcer soon.

 

If you can, get that shield. Health regeneration isn’t that important early on, if you can avoid blind torps.
Maybe you should try the explo instead of tritorp. That way you have 1 very reliable weapon to protect yourself in close combat or assasin speeders.
And try to build a rare turbo. Epics take foreveeeerrrr to upgrade, and rare t4-5 will carry you to nightmare.
Otherwise seems good to me, no big flaws.
