can it be dealt with by putting 3 bullets in the manhack

yes but when its constantly charging at you is like a flying sea mine LOL

literally click your mouse 3 times and solve the problem

easiest enemy you have on server from the Union faction, and also the least lethal one


How people complain about a manhack which is near impossible to control properly, and don't complain about insta-kill sniper rifles is beyond me

As much as I appreciate your attempt at feedback, exaggerating from one rebel death to 'the majority of the resistance' and standing right on top of it to '20 feet away' gives your criticism a lot less weight.

i think loading up a manhack with c4 is perfectly viable and reasonable as an improvised weapon

if we're unironically considering loading up alien worms into lead boxes and stuffing his body full of high explosives then everything is fair game imo

no i dont think it does, the fact that there was 2 rebels on the bridge after manhacks kamikaze gave me the impression that a number of people had been wiped out

what is true tho is that a few people took a lot of damage and we were utterly defenceless against a bridge raid lol

im not COMPLAINING AS SUCH, all I ask for is basically what you've already said, is that they'll be moderated

Would you prefer APCs and Synths to a few silly manhacks with explosives strapped to them

bro straight up lying lol

not sure if "raid" is the right word, it was retaliatory strike after rebels attacked us
we weren't allowed to push far enough to get the dropped guns anyway, hardly a loss for you

id prefer not taking so much damage from an NPC tbh

its fine i had the wrong impression, I thought most of the rebels were put on nlr because manhacks came down to rain death from the skies (i was misinformed), I was wrong I apologise.

This I did not know too, as I had just joined I thought it was a straight up attack not a retaliation attack.

Again, I apologise, I was misinformed and I am wrong.

i hate myself for nearly dying to a manhack !

I got ass blasted by a canister, It took 40 seconds from the first shot fired to the canister landing on my head. A little bit unfair but I still had a good fight GG to both sides

If it were up to me, we would've sent countless suicide APCs with 500lb bombs on each side into rebels already - this is the best I could get to do lol

but fair enough yea, I understand

playable manhacks when?

ROLLERMINE SCRIPTS?

The manhack wasn't an NPC btw, it was a player controlled entity, OTA have been able to pilot manhacks for years.

Putting explosives on manhacks is a clever tactic. However, it only highlights the fact that the Combine side is more capable of improvised guerrilla warfare - whereas rebels mostly... throw people with guns at a problem till it's solved. Can't blame them though, the resistance's resources are kind of nebulous in that regard.

Combine can clearly look over what assets they have and draw conclusions on the available options.
Rebels not so much, as far as I know.

 

[Erkor]

nebulous

lol

i'd honestly expect rebels to be the kings of improv warfare; imagine walking through the ramshackle town or whatever and a car tips over and falls off the rooftop and crushes you

There's no real mechanical way to do it, though. Sure, it can be roleplayed out, but while those /localevents are being played out and rebels do their /me's of dealing with whatever remains of the victims of their traps... well, Combine can just send a squad to flank and S2K everybody involved.

the age of contraptioning must begin

fuse winches, ball sockets, muscles, and cars... forge the ultimate death trap (that may overload and make the car launch backwards into you as you set it up)

Some of us do a lot more than that, you just don't see it.

Expect big things reasonably soon.

give rebels full PET to make traps

i want to make it so nudging the wrong prop pulls a rope that drops a fucking car on your head
