Nuetrino Amp buff probably has the potential for some really damn impressive plays given extremely good communication, but that level of coordination will probably never be seen in LDG (plus varying latencies makes timing even more difficult). I bet halving the bonus and drain rate would put it in a more useful spot.Earl_Vencar.:LLS:. wrote:I tried playing a support role using the E-90 and it wasn't very successful. I'm loath to knock a good idea, but in its current state it just isn't suited very much to the Freon gamestyle (neither the role or weapon). The Neutrino Amplification fire mode was a great tool versus the single opponent, but useless against a second opponent (I think the team-mate buff option is unworkable simply because the ammo consumption is far too high). Additionally, the role relies on the intelligence of your team-mates ... and as half of them are seemingly unaware of the presence of proxy healing, you can imagine the success rate isn't particularly high.
I'm quite happy with the new proxy healing arrangements to be honest (the overtime bug aside). The only problem is the Coach gun has turned incredibly powerful and is starting to dominate games.
As far as team coordnation to make support role more viable, maybe team mates see a cross over the head of any ally with a support weapon out?
@Butcher good to hear! I'll see if I can't put a sticky up with tips explaining the more complex weapons and pointing out the more subtle aspects of BWPro.
