What are your worst experiences w/the game so far?

1. Trying to do anything with the default VS or TR MAX weapons
2. Getting a headshot with a bolt action and losing to nanoweave
3. Taking a bunch of damage from a trigger happy friendly and then getting finished by an enemy

1. Having to look at the crappy VS weapons
2. Having no purple on my armour and really ugly teal
3. No laser beams shoot from my guns
4. Terrible gun SFX

1. Listening to whiners on the forums
2. The endless waiting game.

Happy to say, nothing really springs to mind.

Being outnumbered 2 to 1 almost constantly

Almost every time I die, it's an instagib, nothing else hardly ever seems to kill me, irritates the hell out of me.

Trying to drive a vehicle(in the past few months at least) and getting instagibbed or taking so much damage so consistently that I become unable to effectively operate it.

Trying to play a max and getting instagibbed by c4 or by some other means nearly every time I play max

Trying to fly an ESF against other ESFs

Trying to deal with lock on spam in an ESF

Flying a Liberator

Trying to deal with infiltrators with SMGs and mines

Fighting an NC max crash

Infiltrators in general, playing as one or going up against them

Fighting people with pump action shotguns

Getting revived and immediately dying/not receiving heals because medic rezzed me with rank 1 medigun

Spawning at a sunderer and immediately losing half my health.


I pretty much gave up on anything that isn't basic infantry in this game a long time ago. The only vehicle I still pull is a Mosquito and thats mostly to get from point A to point B, but I usually use it in the area I want to get to until someone shoots me down/I crash. Anything that costs resources besides infantry goodies like grenades/restoration kits/c4 is a waste of time to me.

TK-ing, this bugs me a lot and I see it a lot, I really don't get the mentality behind it.

Hacking, some days you don't come across it (or they aren't obvious enough) but when someone is obviously hacking it can ruin that gaming session.

In general I'm a big fan of this however which is why I play when I can

The flickering-screen bug

Spawning a magrider and instantly taking damage from 3 different directions without being able to see a single one of my assailants.

Lock-onSide, when everyone and their dog was carrying around a anihilator and you couldn't get close to the enemy without your plane starting to beep.
When SOE broke lock-on warning and you would just instantly explode to missiles with no warning.

Trying to defend while greatly outnumbered. More enemies keep joining while tour allies keep leaving (no one wants to fight a loosing battle).

Trying to defend a deployd sunderer heavily under atack. Your allies keep spawning at it. No one bothers switching to engie to help you repair it. No one bothers jumping in and using one of your (heavily certed) top guns. Sunderer goes down becuase your allies just don't give a ****.

Getting rammed ro death by friendly esf.

1. Getting lightening stuck in the stupidest places
2. Rage mode engaged by Pump Actions (you know you do too!)
3. Playing anywhere around the pub groups of the 666

1. Having to tweek my whole PC every patch to get back to 40fps in fights.
2. No top down drive to rid the game of cheats leads to 3.
3. Seeing banned players wandering around after a short 'holiday'.

1. That after every patch, the game performs worse.

2. SOE not dealing with a person admitting exploiting when I sent in a report (never gonna put time into reporting exploiters/cheaters ever again).

3. The answer for everything is to bring in more AA/AV into the game apparently.

The constant cycle of releasing weapons to sell them, and then nerfing them to sell more of other weapons.

But SOE's true colours are well and truly now painted on the wall.

1. Watching Liberators doing giant falling barrel rolls to avoid lock-ons.
2. Getting zero XP for alerts despite playing for 1+ hours in them once they finished (happened the last 2 alerts).
3. Getting ROCKETPODDED ALL THE TIME!!! It was nice to be able to do stuff before they nerfed lock-ons in the last update. After all you know lock-ons got a hard nerf when ESF's feel free to rain unskilled terror from the skies again, especially now since you render farther away. Then they just have to move around a tree to throw your lock-on launcher off.

1. buying a weapon with SC
2. having it nerfed a week later

Don't whine about lock-ons. They buggered them up long ago. A small branch on a tree cancels your locking on OR when the missile fires it hits an object because it's heading TO WHERE YOU'LL BE instead of acting like a real missile would. I won't scream for the buffs it should get back to locking on but what the launchers really need are a 1/2 second grace period during lock-on where a tree or top of another players head doesn't cancel it out.

As for your Sundy, you just have a bad faction. I'm always spawning as an engie at a new sundy just in case it needs repair when i get there (after all you can always change back once you survey your new location).

1. AP mines
2. Nano Weave
3. Shotguns, other than scats and Jackhammers (because that's NC's thing)
4. No infantry collision
5. Lack of proper patch notes

1. 18 fps battles on 6 core system.

well there is your problem, your either using the ****** generation intel chip set or a bulldozer AMD chip set which happens to be even worse than the bad year intel had.

1. Very little communication in game.
2. Dying in a vehicle after 2 minutes and not being able to see or avoid where the shots are coming from.
3. Awful base design. its not fun defending most of the bases.
4. paying £££ for weapons.
5. performance getting worse with every patch
6. very limited voice macros.
7. all the weapons look the same.
8. hiding behind cover after being shot and then dying.

1. No variety between the guns or ironsights.
2. The optimization.
3. This community insisting on having everything nerfed.

#1 OHK weapons.
#2 <LOCK> on weapons.
#3 Spam
#4 Crappy base defense
#5 Server lag / Cheaters (When it lags everyone looks like they're cheating and invincible to gun fire)
#6 Unsportsmanlike selfish gameplay from other players, like they're Cert addicts
#7 Crappy nonsensical base design
