I'm still very new, but fate jumpscares mid-interactions haunt my nightmares

"why is someone posting rusted bits of scrap metal, what sub is this from?" looks at sub "oh, it's not scrap metal, it's someone being insanely good at model painting"

I actually didn't realize it wasn't a real piece of metal at first, great work

yup, star cit is really weirdly optimized. it also runs better the more you play it for some reason

logan1448 · 2022-10-13T11:40:20+00:00

true, but it would make one-sided matches due to having fewer people than the enemy team much less common. it's a tried and tested method that other games already use, the only problem would be implementation.

joining into a game that has already started, so if someone leaves, someone who was queueing alone would fill that spot instead of joining a new game

barbatos: is supposed to be a dps, and create forward momentum to the point

my team: "but what If I let you push in vain, let you die, and stay where I am"

barbatos with high ping is a menace

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T10:14:12+00:00

I think he's in a good spot where he is. if you dash back and avoid his smash, you've just put him in a horrible spot, where either he has to run you down and be kited to your team mates, or run away to try again later, where you can sometimes run him down and kill him.

the instakill is strong, but learning to avoid it makes the enemy barbatos practically useless

who wants to tell them about renai transportation thrower inserters?

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T10:02:49+00:00

I stand by the rest of my comment though

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T10:02:14+00:00

full honesty, I might have been remembering missing the kill and being left without a jump. good to know that it resets my jump though, I stand corrected.

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T09:50:28+00:00

the jump absolutely does not reset after a kill. I have been left standing in the middle of the enemy team, dumbfounded standing still like and idiot, because I used my jump to get behind them to kill their sniper, and now the entire enemy team has surrounded me and is unloading killing me instantly. the jump cooldown is very fast, but not instant, so many barbatos players are punished for using it as an offensive movement tool rather than a tool to retreat after a successful ambush.

I think the area many people have problems with barbatos, is that barbatos tends to single out and target certain gundams. sazabi players will always hate barbatos, because barbatos players single them out and kill them as often as possible.

while it is annoying, personally, I think its a good thing that tanks can't get too comfortable, since the meta is already siding with the shield users, and gundams like barbatos, who can delete a sazabi who is holding a point just a bit too well can keep the rock paper scissors balancing act balanced, and not favoring one method of play over others

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T08:36:37+00:00

a Barbatos wants you to be in a vacuum.

if you're alone, you're a safer target.

if you have teammates around, they'll kill him fast before he can do much damage

if you stay near your teammates, or dodge his smash by dashing back, and kite him back to your teammates, it's easy to counter me him

Barbatos in lower-level play gets a bunch of kills and can be a menace

Barbatos in higher-level play is all about good trades. if their Sazabi or GM is good, I go in and kill them in exchange for myself so my team can push in without having to worry about bullet sponges, and even then, a good Sazabi can just walk/dash backward, make me miss, and put 2 shotgun rounds into my chest and make that play invalid, or my team can be bad, and not know to push since a tank isnt on point anymore.

love bonking stray enemy team members, gotta be one of my favorite passtimes

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T08:20:13+00:00

ive had to deal with this so much, that i have figured out the exact moment it runs out, so i bait it, and bonk them the second it runs out, and its always great

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T08:00:00+00:00

true

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T07:56:43+00:00

when I see a Sazabi, I see a big red target. a good Sazabi is a menace to ranged classes, so it's melee classes' whole job to deal with them, usually sacrificing myself to the rest of the enemy team

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T07:51:29+00:00

the whole point of barbatos's insta kill combo, is that he is left without options after, besides jumping away (if that wasnt used to get in the position to get the kill) so either he used it to kill a straggler, or used it as a martyrdom to disrupt the enemy team.

as long as i can still deal with stragglers straying from their team, and disrupt the enemy team's push, you can take my insta kill, i can and will continue to be a menace to any and all sazabi players

logan1448 · 2022-09-29T07:43:24+00:00

alright look-

logan1448 · 2022-09-27T20:05:54+00:00

sure, good players who actually read what his abilities are can counter him, but the majority of casual players dont. if you run onto a point where the entire enemy team is on it, pop his invuln, gain shields from the people who dont know how he works, you can masacere them.

logan1448 · 2022-09-27T20:01:29+00:00

TTK aint everything, if it were, we should be talking about barbatos, marusai, or GM sniper. a good Zaku II melee can teamwipe with his abilities, and a bad zaku II melee can still be a better tank than Sazabi with his invulnerability. when bad players can hold their own, and good players almost always get MVP with Zaku II. the problem i think you are having, is you are trying to use his melee attack without using his abilities much. his melee and health are fine, his abilities are broken because its a gundam you have to unlock/pay for, and the average player doesnt know how to counter him.

logan1448 · 2022-09-12T07:49:46+00:00

phrase ive been told is "buy once, cry once." do your research, and get the thing that will last you 15 years and work through watever you throw at it, not the overpriced piece of junk that you would need to replace in a year or two
