I do not find the weapon unfair at the now, but considering a further deduction is not unreasonable.

Frankly, I'm amazed that it takes TWO DISCS to kill the shrike.

Someone who is decent with a shrike will get a lot of use out of that shrike, someone who is bad will get better over time, better to the point where you can't do anything about their presence. Hi Rez should highly consider having their price up to 9000. Shrikes are extremely fast, they are very hard to catch up to and hit with a disc. They are overconfident when engaging units on the ground. Even if they do get hit with one disc, they will immediately run to go heal. The shrike takes a lot of skill but requiring two discs to take it down just makes it immortal for the most part. Only the ARX, Jackle, Saber Launcher and maybe a could other weapons are a significant thread to them. A decent shrike pilot does not need to place himself at risk, he can merely fire from a great distance if he wants to, it is like a zeus juggernaut when they are attacking the flag defense, firing bolts from the sky like a god. That's fine, let them enjoy that, but it is annoying having someone run into your shrike because they know they can buy another one, or that someone is going to harass the ground units knowing that it is very hard for them to do something about it, and even if something is done they'll be back, with wheel deal. _________________ AkashaTheFeared - Credits Spent: 60.00 USD "All the actions of our life must be the outcome of an equation and an exact formula in order for the possibilities of the mind and the functionalism of understanding to surge forth."

No weapon with a hit box larger than the SF should get a MA bonus or accolade.

Shrike is way too overpowered. As a soldier, I am limited to attempting to hit it with spinfusors for the most part. There is no way you're going to hit them even once with that.

Frankly, I'm amazed that it takes TWO DISCS to kill the shrike. It's overpowered even if it takes one disc to take down, because you're never going to hit them with that disc.

4500 points is not a lot, people waste 4000 on tactical strikes that have a good chance of missing just because they're cheap. Someone who is decent with a shrike will get a lot of use out of that shrike, someone who is bad will get better over time, better to the point where you can't do anything about their presence.

Hi Rez should highly consider having their price up to 9000. Shrikes are extremely fast, they are very hard to catch up to and hit with a disc. They are overconfident when engaging units on the ground. Even if they do get hit with one disc, they will immediately run to go heal.

The shrike takes a lot of skill but requiring two discs to take it down just makes it immortal for the most part. Only the ARX, Jackle, Saber Launcher and maybe a could other weapons are a significant thread to them. A decent shrike pilot does not need to place himself at risk, he can merely fire from a great distance if he wants to, it is like a zeus juggernaut when they are attacking the flag defense, firing bolts from the sky like a god.

That's fine, let them enjoy that, but it is annoying having someone run into your shrike because they know they can buy another one, or that someone is going to harass the ground units knowing that it is very hard for them to do something about it, and even if something is done they'll be back, with wheel deal.

Nice hotfix, but where's our ability to attach clan tags to our names it's long over due.

The micro Freeze and stuttering still here.
I just replaced my 3870 512 card with a hd7770 1 gig card the old card was dieing a slow death so it was time. I am trying to run it on medium and had lag then reduced it to low still have lag changed the resolution to 1280 by it the 4.3 reslotion top and still have lag. I have edit the ini files no joy on that either. I am running vista 64 bit but the launcher is 32 bit don't know if that has anything to do with it or not.

Please fix the issue keep getting owned and it not even fun anymore even tried to play a straight tech and repair and up grade only with no combat still have lag issue and keep getting raped. really want to keep playing but something has to be done.
