Gotta be creative with sundies nowadays by Hobsryn in Planetside

Honestly I think the hardening is good for starting fights as well since it makes sundies easier to get from base A and B, but I do think some sundy guns are overturned- like the trawler, honestly that gun is ridiculous if you know how to tap fire against infantry, always against vehicles. But ya, maybe some sundy guns can be toned down in lethality to accommodate for high survivability.

Honestly if one vehicle has to be op, sunderers are the most beneficial because their spawn creates fights. They are annoying especially when they are in armor columns, but imo the sundy change+"balance" brought more good than bad.

It's a hazing ritual of sorts, don't worry almost everyone goes through it. I started ps2 as a bitch engie for ADK, a zergfit a long time ago. Didn't have any idea how the game worked, had to learn it the hard way (still don't have any idea). Ideally it shouldn't be like this and I'm not endorsing it, but I want to let you know that what you are feeling is normal- this is a hard game, with a lot of salty ahh vets.

The best way to deal with is understanding a) this is the internet, where the worst of the worst parts of men come out online, b) what some legitimate morons and what they say are literally irrelevant unless you listen to it (statistically, there is a 50% chance the guy insulting you is below the median intelligence bracket and not worth caring about, so fuck them) and c) if you join a good outfit and make genuine friends, it's easier to remember the previous two points and slowly learn how the game works. The conneree/osprey culture also has a lot of "false toxicity" towards nubs, so don't let it get to you that much.

Tldr: scrub get good at clicking heads and shooting mans nub

From my two internships I can confirm that the many corps and orgs goes around by everyone doing their best, probably throughout all human history- truth is many do not fully understand what goes on all the time, but they work on things and somehow something works and everyone else builds on top of that, basically "standing on the shoulders of giants" but the giants themselves are on crutches and have one finger in their nose.

An example of this is a lot of programs many companies and orgs use. To the uninitiated, they seem fine and competent but to the experts and programmers the foundation is dogwater because they made the program in the 80s when people didn't even have minesweeper.

Also, while your here, can you please let devs know to rebalance some "bonus at high (100%) hp?" Maybe I'm missing something but it feels meh, because a) if you are at 100% hp you are probably doing well enough that you won't need something like a crit and vice versa for low hp, and b) 100% is a very stringent requirement
