Anyone else feel like this? I know this game has a way of punishing creativity (slam dunk, forward mandrakes and so on) but at the same time, it feels like creativity is becoming very stale
Like for example, browsing the new Nox cabin builds on the exhibition. Instead of people trying out various things to see if the added penetration could make magic happen, it’s just commit, scorps, commit, scorps, commit, scorps, commit, scorps…
Part of the blame is also on how combinations do not work as well as optimization, like for example the photon cabin, you could run 1 quasar 1 incinerator but then again, you have energy weapons that also heat so there is no point, these strange junkayrd combos just do not work most of the time. And I wish they did, I wish running different guns worked better than always just having all same guns + specific cabin for said gun.

yep, and thats the reason i dont do pvp either. to many builds that use the same set ups. i remember when shotgun builds were all the same thing to. ugh.
Perk synergies killed variety in this game. Its bad enough with cab perks, its unplayable with ones like finwhale/jackie/oma.
The game works by selling win-buttons to the lower skilled or more average gamers. What do you expect.
uhmmm, no they were not.
SGs were different from each other ( i mean overheating SG)
e.g. While i manage to make spitfires ,Gremlins /Goblins, maces, sledgehammers…you name it to shoot for a very long long time, ruptures with the same setup never did that.
even by the end of my SG days i dropped all rads and my setup had lots of coolers, fused coolers which made more sense to enjoy it’s perks as you face hug them and dragged them or even pin them down = reduced speeds
where i want to get is this all things limit the build itself, form factor, weak points, size and specially if you want to try to counter any META builds ( wedge, those small tracks with frontal SGs that were a thing in the past ).

A long time ago, with meatgrinders e.g.
Just yesterday i played with Caucasus, it was extremely lacklustre not only they nerfed that gun into the ground but they also destroyed that weapon with the Heli winners .
Building it’s much more restricted now than before where you could make things in a lot of different ways.
Now it’s just an illusion, you can still build things as long it’s inside their parameters
the use of rotors is already low , rotors and canons even lower … but rotors and a set of 3 caucasus and drones is downright pathetic .
hiding in the hights and out of reach and angle of the most weapons and using weapons that got a build in aim assist alongside those console third party emulators provide is cowardice
Yes i understand you…but did you try using them on a ground build?
It’s garbage, a single chord can outperform 3 Caucasus, and it’s not difficult.
Max reach of a Caucasus it’s 100 meters, 117 meters if they are fused
It seems nowadays, Helis with Caucasus they just drop to the target.
Yesterday my game session was nice, i was in the “zone” and so on. but i have this.
5 helis in a team vs no helis, pretty heavy use of rotors by the other team, even in their element the worse it’s not even Caucasus, it’s pyres, well it was a blood bath

Chords got neutered down to a point where its a waste of time. 1,5 points per Hit on target… That means 6 damage with 4 Chords… If… All of them Hit the target. It once been 3,5 per Hit…
Caucasus are a steaming pile of dogshit on a ground build. They are slow as fuck, the cadency is simular slow to a autocanon but without the punch, they waste a lot of space, they are heavy enough to ruin the Balance (topheavy) and locking on to a target is a gamble (that is if you dont use a third Party Script) and you are a sitting duck while you wait for the turret to turn.
Its nearly impossible to go with the Hunter-killer play style with These mounted on… way to unflexibel
But its a total other thing on rotors… Weight, turnspeed aso. Dont matter much… You can just lazyly hang over your target and let them Spam down ward , they line the shots themself, your target cant do shit about it… Pair it with drones and you have a nobrainer, Pair it with all the shitty scripts and nanny Programs the Console fags use and even a Monkey straight outta Zootopia can be MVP

caucasus got hit pretty hard by the nerf hammer… i tried mine before and they were terrible. slow rotation speed that would make a mammoth look fast and they cant even aim that high so your extremely vulnerable to helis. the devs really screwed the pooch on those… its a shame to cause caucasus were nice to use in some pve modes. now they are below average at best.
we need a legendary caucasus!
hears 10,000 guns being cocked behind me
uhhhhhh… for pve!

No worries, you need to go the doctor to have a earing check up, it’s not guns being cocked, it’s crickets.
Nobody wants a overpriced overblown P.O.S
