Is this normal/intended?
« on: February 14, 2012, 04:56:21 pm »



A crit in my HEAD not eyes, from a max range laser rifle (cheap/easy to obtain weapon) WITHOUT bypassing against my 100/100 BA helmet and bonehead trait.

But the real funny thing about this is that the actual head and eye crits that bypass don't even do this much damage, usually doing 110~190.

Unless my avenger crits from range I can't even reach this damage so I might as well throw it away and take up a sniper build ey?

It was a bypass. As far as i know, if you get killed by a shot with armor bypass, the bypass is not mentioned in the log. I guess it could be considered combat message bug (not sure if this bug was reported).

If that is the case mayck, then am I the only one that finds it retarded that a simple laser head bypass crit can potentially completely destroy any character without 200+ hp or severly wound them? I thought this was the job of insta kills from a plasma melt.

High damage crits from weapons that Crazy described are understandable but come on a laser?

You can eat an instant from a sniper rifle, get blowed to pieces by a crit avenger burst, sliced in two from a gatling shot. Being OS is shitty, but I don't see why it's related to laser. The day we will see full team of laser in TC, that will mean it's OP. For now, it isn't.


NB: and Mayck is right, this is a bypass, only not displayed.

He just wants to say that he does not like getting crits from laser, so he wants to see no more critical hits caused by a laser sniper. It`s so childish.

I just fail to understand why a mere laser can score such high damage compared to other bigger or better weapons. And remember, this is damage from hitting the head, not even the eyes.

Energy have always been very effective when scoring bypass, because they have high damage to compensate the high DR and the fact there is no DR reduction. A laser is a fine weapon, that's all.

Make insta kills impossible.
Lower damage, please, and keep the insta killing power attacks to only weapons like gauss+.

Getting insta'd by a laser, sniper, plasma, avenger, m60, even lower tier weapons such as smgs and assault rifle, it's all shitty in a game such as this, where such weapons are so readily accessible.  It's shitty for any MMO, not just FOnline.

No one likes going in full gear to try and fight another group only to find themselves hit by 1 individual for instant death in one go, and vice versa.  But it is understandable if they're hit by 3 people at the same time and instantly killed.  At least, that's my take on the whole thing.

michaelh139 stop crying about instant kills, i know you love mercs and you cant handle them because of current loyalty system. crits are crits, so they allways will be OP, but laser are really op now, they are much better than plasma rifles now

Michael is right, there must be a limit for randomness, i feel completely idiot that critical builds just clic on the enemy and pray to hit hard, i quit last season because i felt sad how i killed everyone by odds, i mean i clic and BOOM headshot to 0HP, was i awesome? NO, kill someone this way is just awesome in any singleplayer game, but in a multiplayer game it makes me feel void :P

I've slightly reduced some of the crit modifiers today, though I think uncalled probably needs to come down too, judging by the crits I was getting on CA with jackhammers :/

With bonehead and a helmet on you really shouldn't be getting such huge damage all that often. Its pretty hard to read through the hyperbole to judge any decent feedback.

Actually Solar, yes crits are very powerful, but I think the problem lay more in the frequency of bypasses than in multipliers. All those OS crits are pretty much bypassing crits. Drastically reduce those and people will prolly complain less about that issue.
