[Suggestion] Accessible gameplay for everyone

    Iv noticed that the game could very more accesible to everyone if we add a couple of weapons to the tanks and infantry gameplay
    As it stands its really hard on new players and average and casual players.


    All those weapons can be NS.

    For infantry i had:

    So having said that let me explain,
    The first weapon "BearCat Snipe 1000": It would be a mix of lock on weapons with sniper
    after selecting your target youll have to wait 2 seconds after that you can just fire and its auto head shot dealing
    something like 33% of dmg. Of course the guy being targeted gets a warning.

    Second weapons "WildDog Smg": Now this one would be an smg that if you shoot close enough to the victim the bullets
    would just turn towards him, im not thinking anything extreme, something like 1 m within the target should be good enough.
    soo if the target its within one meter of the bullet path the bullet turns toward him and hit him.

    And of course for the lighting main gun and for turrents in MBT, im thinking of similar weapons:

    The first weapon for tanks/turrents: "WildCat AntiTank" it basically follows the same lock on patern, sometimes hitting
    tanks with your tank its hard so it stands to reason that to have a lock on weapon on the tank would make it accessible
    and easy to get into for new people, again its a lock on weapon, except sense tanks are usually near cover or retreat
    it would lock on 2 seconds, doing 33% dmg per round as well. of course tanks get a warning they are being lock on.

    The second weapon for tanks/turrents: "Wolf Vulcan Variant" even if its the vulcan it would be good this time around
    it would work similar to his infantry counterpart, basicly shoot and if the bullet trajectory its within 5 meters of a
    target, it will always hit.

    Now of course countermeasures are in order, so i was thinking for infantry it could be a special ability you have to cert
    into, so if your an engi, you either take turrents or take the countermeasures, for infiltrator, cloak or countermeasures
    for medic, medicgund or countermesures and so forth for Light assaults HA, and maybe even max suits, now this countermeasures
    can only be activated once every 30 seconds when fully certed, and it only works for 5 seconds after being activated.



    Im positive everyone will love this new weapons, except e-honor warriors that think skill should matter more than numbers
    and get in the way of players fun. Yeah those stupid knights that think themselfs gods and look down on everyone else.

    the very best players and outfits are so much better and its almoust impossible to kill them on a one vs one, or even in fair
    100 vs 100 players, experience players will always dominate, so im suggesting this weapons to even the field and make the
    game accessible.


    I was going to suggest something for air and maxes, but for air i notice they already have it, and for maxes, well ill
    leave it to someone else.

    So what do you guys think? its already in the air game and everyone seems to like the tomcats and coyotes, i think they
    would do wonders on the ground as well.


    STD: Pl0x forgive my bad orthography, and dont be a e-knight that hates like the ones that will not like this weapons.

    I can't take your post seriously when you call people who are skilled those stupid knights that think themselfs gods and look down on everyone else while not taking a single minute to fix your ''orthography'' and make some baseless judgement out of pure ignorance and spite towards things you can't understand.

    Btw, pvp games were always meant to test your skill/brain against other player's. That's why they were created, and it's been like this since the antic times (Mahjong for example). If you can't accept the fact that the better player in a pvp game should win, then go back to pve.

    That's like saying salsa is great on tacos, lets put it in a cake. They are two vastly different systems and rely on completely different skill sets.

    We should also automate movement towards cover and capture points, so the game can just play itself.

    What you did there....
    I see it.

    In any case, no comparison.

    Yes please, pressing buttons on a keyboard and moving mouse is too hard.

    You know, I look at suggestions like this and other comments made regarding new players. Then I think back to my first time playing this game, which was only back in January. Then I find myself wondering... are most new players morons? Because that's certainly how many people seem to portray them. I mean, really, suggesting auto-aim for new players? Because they're too incompetent to learn how to aim? Sure it takes time, and it can be painful at first, but you'll never learn if you have weapons aiming for you.

    I just don't get it.

    Well, the next logical step would be to add bots to the game.

    Just imagine the potential! 96+ vs 96+ meatgrinders EVERYWHERE!

    How is it any different? in the air people told me there use to be pros, but now everyone can kill everyone thx to tomcats and coyotes, in the ground is really hard to kill the best players so i want something to make it even field like the air game, everyone loves those weapons there, why not on the ground? otherwise delete them completly from the game and make it clear what type of game is this for... for casual players or for competitive players.

    I don't understand the whole new player thing. While certain mechanics take a little time to get use to, this game is no different than any other fps. Point and shoot. Most players even with certs still use the base guns (e.g. Orion).

    I love the Gauss Rifle. I've been using the GR-22 since I araxiumed the Gauss Rifle and it's just not as nice.
