Title: Jetpacks are too powerful
Post by: Higher Game on February 12, 2008, 05:11:44 am
It's ridiculous when a jetpacker is harder to kill than a battlesuit because you can only hit the guy's legs or maybe chest, and that's in close quarters! In open areas, they're just about invincible. The advanced dragoon's snipe attack isn't even remotely accurate enough to stop them, and the pounce is easy to dodge.

Maybe basilisks need some kind of anti-air web attack, since they're not really that good at anything else.

the basi gass when mixed with poison knocks down jettards at close range unforturally they are taking this out in 1.2 maybe if they  just made the gass go up higher it would work but no they would rather make humans always win when they camp i like 1.1 better anyway

I can only suggest more practice.  I routinely humiliate jettards, and I suck :>  With goon, goon+ and poison, even dretching them from the ceiling.

it's kinda hard, but try pouncing to them and firing a barb from midair, it works to extend your range a bit sometimes :P

If you spent less time whining and more time practicing, you would be amazed at what can be accomplished :) Just give it some time, be patient. It feels great when you figure out how to do something new.

But I think he is trying to improve his whining skills, not his Tremulous skills. Look at the other threads he started:D

Blah blah blah, jettards hurt team effort, blah blah blah...

Barely defending, certainly not attacking... blah blah blah

Jets are certainly useful in ATCS when you are under attack by goon + and 'rants continually... your life lasts longer that the obligatory few seconds it takes for you to get mowed down otherwise.  Ofc, this is camping... I'd like to see any of your try to last very long without a Bsuit in the same situation.

Heh, I just figured out the weakness of ATCS when you are human... the human strength is range... in ATCS, the only place you get range is to the sides of the center bunker... the rest of it, there is always a wall handy for the aliens to hide behind. 
Hmm.
