That would be a good small change. "TF already has it" shouldn't mean we can't do it with rix.CronoDroid wrote:QUOTE (CronoDroid @ Apr 22 2009, 11:02 AM) wtf, CD1 on a scout is $#@!ing useless. I see no problem with Rix Hvy Scouts that can't be fixed by giving them more gats like the TF one
Rix heavy scouts

If that situation you've described is a big issue for you, it's your fault, not the core's.
Spent your e-time on something better, like bettering yourself at the game, instead of hoping that the core devs will homogenize the game for you.
IIAIK, Rix loses most of its PuGs, and isn't generally used in squad games at all.
Nerfing it isn't going to help it, so leave it be.
and lower the money settings and you won't have people rushing hvy scouts, ffs.

There are two types of Allegiance Players - Those who log in to play with me, and those who log in to complain about me. With me gone, both types lose interest. I am Allegiance.Mastametz wrote:and I forgot to add to my list of things people are addicted to, Video Games...how could I forget that.
It's in there with hallucinogens and God, categorized by general loss of reality..
Rix loses pugs occasionally, but I'd need to see stats. It seems to me the pugs it loses are against IC, which is sort of expected because, well, it's easier to fly IC than Rix and otherwise they're both fantastic factions. Still, I seem to recall a lot of rix factions winning games... I even saw Rix sup beat, um, I think it was dreg exp? the other day, horrendously.
Don't find fault, find a remedy; anybody can complain.

Bios win more games proportionally? I think not. Not to mention, Bios has had such a better run of luck since we haven't had to have partialing investors anymore

I am really struggling to remember a game where hvy scouts of any faction actually broke a game I flew in.
Times you genuinely get hvy scouts:
Assisting hvy bbrs
Finding/defending against adv tac
Easing TP2 drops
Rix Hvy scouts are OCCASIONALLY bought in pugs to "whore". IMHO experience this tactic fails as much as it succeeds due to general pug-ness.
Hvy scouts do not need the additional firepower that they have to perform their roles but you know what? It does make them more fun to fly. I really don't feel that there is a sudden scourge of hvy scouts ruining games so just leave them be.
In the final analysis, a lone hvy scout will only kill a miner or con that is UNDEFENDED. That is the fault of the opponent's team, not the hvy scout. If the scout is gunned then it is a case of two pilots and you need to compare it with a case of 1 x scout + 1 x fig or 2 x figs.

A bios heavy scout can kill a miner nan and the miner fig then the miner unless it is piloted and turreted by muppets
I'm sorry I don't remember any of it. For you the day spideycw graced your squad with utter destruction was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Sunday
