    The reason why the rockets go through is because, like all lock on rockets, go dead and continue on their path. If you are flying in a straight line as the rockets go dead they can still run into you. Try moving as you flare.
  2. Battleballs

    I can say that most rounds fired from the striker do not land on target. A decimator can kill an ESF in one clip if slightly damaged, or leave it on fire and doomed to ground fire. The Striker cannot do the same damage even if all 5 were to hit against ESFs and other aircraft. The striker cannot also shoot turrets,max units, or dumb fire. It's limited in it's abilities but it has a high fear factor on the enemy because of lock on. Which is why I assume is the reason you are here.

    The Striker is no where near as bad as the Tomato. If you want to start nerfing things start with that!

    The weapon sometimes does indeed ignore flares.

    My typical striker experience:

    *BEEP BEEP BEEP*

    *flares*

    *BEE-*
    ...
    *BEEP BEEP*
    ...
    *BEEP BEE-*
    *-EEP*
    ...
    ...
    *THUMP*
    *THUMP*

    Well i can tell you that its easier to hit an ESF with a Striker than a Decimator cause of this thing called "lock-on"
    If you manage to look at an ESF for more than 2seconds without failing that task to bad, you have a 100% chance to hit it (or it flares and runs)

    then how come less than 10% of all striker users have a hit ratio of less than 99%, assuming it has a 100% chance of hitting its target.
  7. Vixxing

    Lol you are just totally clueless who cares if it hits 100 or 90%? its incredibly OP what percent do you think a Decimator have on ESF? 2-3% (and that is a SKILLED user) So why should TR get aimbots?

    Your personal opinion has been noted.

    Now, after this let's see the developers perma-ban every ZOE-MAX user and Scatter-MAX user as well, as well as everyone that has ever used the GD7-F and the H-V45, and why not also ban anyone ever caught using rocket-pods, grenades, C4 or rocket launchers of any type.

    Then when the game's pop depletes to the two new guys who has ever NOT DONE any of this, the devs can finally say "our game is now perfect and no-one will complain, EVER."

    Except they won't because one of the two will complain that the 3rd faction he was promised don't exist anymore, and quit, then the last guy will complain that the game is REALLY dead and quit as well.

    Seriously though if you don't want to be laughed at like I am doing now, consider not sharing any more of these absurdly biased gems with us.

    Just because 750damages are only against infantries

    The lancer does 1500 damages against ground vehicles and 1125 damages against air.
    G2G does 1500 damages have counters, and have 400m range.
    G2A deals 750 damages (against aircrafts), have counters and 500m range.

    The lancer is a direct upgrade to G2G launchers with AA deterrance (for people that have a good aim).

    You are whining about the lancer since the release, but did you tried it since its buffs? I don't think.
    Keep your mind, 1 lancer user less is holidays for NC/TR.
  10. Vixxing

    Air deterrance? Lancer? it takes MORE than 2 full loads to down an ESF (2*4s loadup time 6s reload) and its just MARGINALLY easier to hit with than a Decimator... now what ESF pilot would stay around for 20s while getting hit? I dont know what you are smoking but i want some... (better of killing ESF with Decimator atleast if you hit you kill)
  11. LenaQuin

    800m/s "marginally easier" than decimator with 60m/s? It travels 13 times faster than the decimator rocket but only "marginally easier"?
  12. Vixxing

    you need to direct hit it after charging for 3 seconds 3 times and a 6s big reload in the mid... with Decimator you got instant fire and need 1 hit... (your much better of killing an ESF with LMG than Lancer)

    Just to be clear The Vanguard has a literal "I WIN" button that can be exploited for 50+% uptime on their tank and the Striker is broken?

    Its really funny how you fight to the last breath trying to prove that the striker is not comically broken. Too bad that every non TR player is getting sick and tired of it after the last 4-5 months, you get inside 500m to any TR owned land and and its -beeep-beep-beep-thump x5 no matter if you move behind geometry. It is broken the devs acknowledged it is broken and it is getting fixed, you can try to Sir Galahad it but you had 4-5 months of super fun ezmode with it, more than any comically overpovered stuff lasted by 4-5 months. Phoenix got fixed in 2-3 days, ZOE got fixed in 2-3 weeks the Striker is still not done after 4-5 months.

    Get your fun lobotomized monkey ezmode with it while you can!

    The fact that so many people took this thread seriously is funnier than the thread itself.
    10/10 to the poster.
  16. Stride

    Something a lot of people do not consider about the striker outside of it's superior TTK in comparison to other lock-on AA is that it gives TR a third AA lock on of which two are multipurpose. This fact alone makes the TR faction more likely to have AA lock ons at all times.

    If the pheonix and lancer had similar AA capabilities then it might actually balance out.
