A single Mine disc, if done properly, can take out a gen. That is gay! I like the fact that they made gens more resilliant.

Only thing I can see that I don't like is beacons not being used for targeting. But it is a minor change and won't effect game play at higher levels.

yeah. "LOL".

I guess I'm supposed to do nothing but read the forums now, and fuck me for missing something. Fucking human beings, always making mistakes. Oh yeah, and POSTS GET STICKIED WHEN REQUESTED. IF YOU DON'T REQUEST A STICKY, IT PROBABLY WON'T HAPPEN.

Thanks for pointing that thread out MG. You can go back to finding another pot to stir now. Your need to "get someone" is continuing to wear thin.

ahh no, classic 1.0 doesn't kill the generator with 1 'well' placed mines. I used 3 mines and 3 discs on those generator on classic and it doesn't kill it! In fact, it didn't even drain the gen shield.

Now there is no way to direct indirect fire without tracing a green 'Kill me' line back to your position.
People will always cheat. Watch for it in Comp, kickem if ya catchem in pubs.

Gens are too tough against the little guys... why not just decrease the damage mines and mortars do instead of strengthening the whole thing.

Now it takes some poor guy with a chaingun or plas cannon forever to kill the beasts. No reason to hurt those little guys that bad. They went from being able to kill it in a second to it taking like 6-8 seconds even with MO equip.

Oh, and this doesn't decrease the effectiveness of HO... they can now ski even easier with the better boost power countering this change.

All it did was hurt the little guys.

... light's can kill gens it's not that hard, just bust out the plas it doesn't take that long with plas gun. I wouldn't use chain on gen, takes way longer then plas does.

I don't like the removal of targetting beacons. I never use them for targetting anything, but I put them under mines in our base and around the flag to make them noticeable for teammates in the hope that they will AVOID stepping on them. Now that all the beacons are the same color, I have idiots running right over them (and getting TKed in their own stupidity).

Would there be a way to keep the color difference without the targetting ability? I'd rather they were changed back to the way they were, but at least give us different colors, please.

I, for one would like to know what the rationale was behind removing the targeting beacon lines.
