The reason why NC always fight TR

Have you ever fired a phoenix before? It has the turning radius of a bus (and that's being generous).

The reason why NC always fight TR is because they're silly terrorists.

What I find absurd about this thread is the amount of people who actually believe that fighting a certain faction is more fair than the other because of perceived advantages. Then what's worse is they're actually actively choosing to fight the faction that they think they have the easier chance of defeating. Pretty low standards.....

Nobody likes fighting an uphill battle and losing because someone's using OP crap. ******** like ZOE and Striker is no fun to fight against so no wonder people avoid those and would just rather spend their time doing something that's more enjoyable.

ok, so i took time to make screenshots. let's have a look at "there aint any other players than VS"

double XP weekend is over. i log in:



there is an alert on:



NC wins it.

a bit later another alert:



draw.

i log out shortly after that, this is the pop at that moment:



i believe your argument, sir, has just been rendered invalid

During prime time it's a lot better, especially during double-XP and SC holidays, lots of people playing with new toys. However, I just logged off my Vanu on Mattherson where we won an alert with 51% population.

Garbage.

Truth be told, that weekend the server population was as even spread as it could ever get and i had alot of fun. Before that weekend the VS did overpop the server and often hit 40% pop or more even during prime time, but that weekend, was (more or less) fair for each faction and it just shows that the NC on our server (woodman) is superior through tactics when the population is balanced.

Live free in the NC!

VS get hyper accurate weapons and a visibility advantage in the dark if wearing dark camo. They don't need to buy nano weave because you're dead before your over-bloomed NC rounds whiz past their head. The New enhanced lag makes this even more fun.
Word is out on the VS experience so new players tend to gravitate there, they have zergs backed up on my server ready to respond.

This is damn right.

Vanu infantry weaponary is totally unbalanced.

When I troop againt TR i get a KD around 1.1 / 1.4. If I try to troop against VS... 0.7 if I'm lucky.

Cmon, how is possible that a infiltrator with a Sirius SX12 can kill an heavy assault, face to face on the middle distance? And this happens to me most of the time (and trust me, I'm not a bad trooper at all!)


SOE, let's balance VS and you'll get NC fight again againt them

Well on Waterson, the TR are the most threatening faction as the VS are totally outnumbered most of the time so there is a natural tendency to gravitate on the TR.

Wouldn't have it any other way :]

this was Monday, not weekend. the same screenshots could be made on any day of the week (i started playing a month ago or so).

maybe, before my time there used to be around 40% VS population on Woodman, i donno - i never saw it.

apparently, those times are over. but people keep talking about high VS numbers as if it is still the case...

I understand and i understand that you probably didn't played TR because if you did you know that the smaller the target the longer the time it takes to lock on to the target.And if i can lock-on there is the speed to outrun the rocket, the flayers or what, and the hide behind a mountain to brake the lock options.Well yes of course if you come close the chance that the rockets will hit is high but something should be used against the lolpods.Yes its strong yes its good, yes the scatter is strong yes the scatter is good, yes the saron is/was strong yes the saron is/was good, so we all have/had something that is/was strong and good in certain situations.Or i don't know maybe you are on the wrong server seriously all i read is that ohh i can't evade the striker ohh useless scatter etc. and these guy are all on amreican servers(Watterson, Matterson,Woodman,etc CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG). Try EU servers like Ceres they show you how to evade a striker,truly you will see that it can be done.Not once not twice but a lot of times.I am lvl 48 so i got some experience.My average hit with a striker is 3 rockets from five no kidding.On EU servers the pilots are damn good man.See for you self.

And while you're outrunning those rockets, that took all of a total of 8 seconds to fire, you're not doing your job. You're also not doing your job when you're running back to repair. Or repairing. Or going back to the fight, before being locked on again from 500 meters away again. Beyond infantry render range. It's not about killing the vehicle. Its about keeping them out of the fight and allowing your vehicles to dominate.

The striker has relatively low SPM compared to how much it affects the battlefield, because it doesn't kill. Which is why I doubt it will be balanced anytime soon.

Seriously, the annihilator was OP. They nerfed it because it was crazy OP and every faction was complaining about it. Then they introduce the striker, which is currently better than the original annihilator (more damage, longer range, quicker lock, better pathing). And now we only have 2/3 of the factions complaining about it.

The exact same reason i only fight NC on my server.

That, and the NC players i fight against actually show respect, the vanu cry for nerfs when i kill them and when they kill me they feel like they're the best and start bragging about it.

Didn't expect a bunch of terrorists showing more dignity than a bunch of crazed scientists.

Red is easier to see. Also I pretend Im guile and the TR are M bison. After that, I go home; become a family man

I seem to kill more TR simply because they are like cockroaches... they pop up no matter where I go.

Exactly, and in a democracy, even the extremists are allowed, though we aren't that extreme, you can just think of us as a technological elite pulling the human race forward, into the embrace of Lord Vanu.

More VS/NC alliances are needed, the TR scum must pay, too long have they been easy mode, for too long they have peacocked around with the OP, time to smash their 20th centrury goggles in!

I hope you're this sunny after the VS probe you

I am NC on Miller. When ever you leave the warpgate there is TR arround. TR has highest numbers of players and so it is very likely to fight against TR. I don't mind fighting VS or TR. I have no favorite enemy. 55% of my kills are TR. There simply are too many TR Players.

I think NC and TR fight each other because they are much closer in balance. These factions have strengths and weaknesses but they are close enough to offset each other. The VS on the other hand seem to be best at all and worst at none. I think it stems from the fact that it is not fun to fight the VS.
