Hehe, just tried out the new crossbow with explosive bolts in VR. This is going on my light assault class immediately, 2 bricks of C4 and 5 bolts detonates a Sunderer without having to rely on someone else finishing it off or waiting for several minutes for it to burn itself to death. 1 brick and 3 bolts takes out a Lightning while 1 brick and 5-6 bolts takes out a Vanguard, meaning you can take out 2 tanks between resupplies now. Indeed you can take out a tank purely using bolts with the amount of ammo carried, so Infiltrators can now take out tanks that the driver has left to go cap a point or are dumb enough not to drive off.

I can see organised squads of stalker cloaked infiltrators gibbing tanks in pitched battles by sneaking around behind the line, uncloaking and each firing one shot before recloaking.

How does the new SMG compare to the others?

Only had a short try-out in VR but assuming the other smg's have a suppressor attached to make a fair comparison, better than the Eridani generally, better than the Sirius at range but worse at point blank and inferior to the Ns-7 overall. Some unfabulous people will have to say how the TR and NC smg's rate. Recoil during sustained fire is almost straight vertical with a fore grip attached so fairly easy to keep on target.

I participated in another outfit scrim against another TR Connery outfit. We won and in a very convincing fashion.

I even recorded it and everything. You can watch here if you're interested. Match starts around 14:20.

It was processing when I posted this, and it's an hour long, so no idea when it will be up.

I understood nothing, contributed nothing, but still got to win, so good game everybody else.

Can i get suggestions on which EU server to join?
What i am looking for most is TR side ( Love being underdog ) and foremost server where
are good leaders that use ingame voice.

Been playing on US server and love it but i'm afraid that my ping ain't that good for
getting that first hit ( 200 ms )

Well if you like getting kicked around then come to Woodman. We're currently kicked around even by NC and that's just insulting.
I have no idea about any leadership in Woodman tho because i don't get involved in the metagame.

Wait, TR is underdog?  ???
If you want to play an underdog'd TR, don't join Miller. Seriously.

If you want to maximize your TR underdoggedness, Mattherson is the place for you.

But you don't want to do that. Mattherson is a terrible place, and it's NA too.

Also, wheee Amerish lattice! Hopefully people will play on it for more than a week.

Yah, it sounds like minecraft with content, you have obviously missed the point, people dont like content, they like different coloured blocks.
Seems to work fine with my copy. As soon as I loaded the human caravan came by and the world burst into fire.

Yep. I'm really considering Woodman that has more people average than miller.
And yes, TR is underdog on most of the servers. Dunno if it is bad leadership or just 4th factioning :)
Anyways... i decided to join Woodman TR side so see you on field.
I try to deliver some PainReliever ;)

I thought people played on amerish only because it was the last place without a lattice.
Now with lattice in place the place is going to be deserted along with esamir for the greater glory of Indarside!

If the lattice haters actually were playing on Amerish, there sure weren't that many of them... Esamir is almost always more populated than Amerish, shitty lighting and all.

The lettuce haters will either leave or deal with it.  Bringing in Hossin will add/keep far more people, so OH WELL.
