Weasel Nerf'd

[Edify]

i haven't pubbed in quite some time.

i'll go check it out.

[Noah]

I didn't read this but I found out that I dislike Tone

Weasel not nerf'd -- Weasel destroy'd.

Of course all the warbirds complained about the weasel. Theyd like to
just keep flying around with their lightning fast shipspeed, shipmanueverability, bulletspeed, energyrecharge, and casually snipe
away. cloakers made them actually have to watch their back.
cloakers actually made a team have to COMMUNICATE so that
non-warbirds could kill the cloakers while the warbirds kept the non
warbirds safe.

No more.

Long live the tyranny of the warbird.

just get rid of weasel already, because thats what has effectively
happened.

[Tibro]

please do not start a new thread when there is already one about weasles..

if you want to make a point please make it in the current active weasle thread.

[deutschpunkrevolte]

if it is such a problem for u that he opens a new thread PM him.
or PM a mod but stfu and don't try to make him look stupid in public. u are teh sux0r newb Tibro

[PH]

It worked for Tone. Everyone, make a bunch of separate threads about how much the new Weasel sucks and is ruining the game. Quickly.

[Stabwound]

Weasel threads combined.

[deutschpunkrevolte]

tone are u a politician or what? <_<

you say:

You will now probably be bombarded by this minority

ok, why do you know that the ppl that dislike the new settings are a minority?
oh right, you don't know it. you just say it to influence the staff.

tone u say:

im sure they would agree with this

but I say you don't know what the majority of the ppl playing tw really want so don't say such shit but only speak for yourself.

u say:

it can still cloak, go see for yourself

very funny tone, very funny. next winter I ll have perhaps time. then I can laugh about that stupid joke

u say:

cloakers before were insanely out of hand

but I say every average terrier was able to kill a good weasel and
every average jav was able to kill an average weasel
that is enough!

If u just don't like weasel then ask the staff to abolish it for you. better than a disabled weasel. But if they come to the conclusion that weasels belong to tw accept it and stfu.

deutschpunkrevolte sez NoW stfu or gtfo and get a life u stupid newbz0r sux0r n00ne likes u and ur stupid moron ideas.

Well, truthfully, the terrier is the worst ship choice for anti-weasel. The weasel is its own anti-weasel, just like the warbird is its own anti-warbird. But yeah, you should really learn how to play the game first, before you go around saying ships are unbalanced and unfair still.

And I still say remove all cloaking and just speed it up, so it can still be able to do something constructive. Sure, you can kill while cloaked, but the kills you get are few, just cause of the setup time for each one.

In summary: even with new settings, its still just as unbalanced as it was before.

[Fluffz]

the new weasel is better because it makes this ship less retarded, but fact still remains it is underpowered by a lot. once again i call for a repel and a rocket maybe for the cost of multifire, energy or bullet duration.

[za gophar]

oh and for everyone who told me to deal with it because it is part of the game, get a fork and some ketchup, its time to eat your words.

[Subjugation]

cloakers made them actually have to watch their back.

warbirds safe.

You're talking about in the base, because the problem with cloakers was in spawn. Wb's can't "watch their back" against something that is invisible. It's just a matter of thrusting around, and hoping you don't happen to thrust toward the path of an x.

[Troll King]

If it's a problem that only affects the lowest common denominators of the zone then I don't see it as a problem at all.

[Kolar]

The problem with the weasel was its power coupled with its stealthly ability. The problem when it comes to publics was not the spawn but how it could take down terriers easily and effectively make publics unstable. Yes, it's easy to say then you've got a crappy terrier or you're camping but for all public arenas you're not always going to have a good one or even a stable freq. What would random, unstoppable and unseen death make people want to do? 1: ESC 6, 2:ESC Q or in general become so pissed off they delete continuum entirely.

With the new settings you can get into the base, get a good kill with both cloak and stealth and still make off to recharge with one of the two on. I think it adds some skill to using the ship and some small thought process. You're not entirely vulnerable, the small size allows for a quick escape and easy dodging.

All of this "you're catering to WBs" is bull. Publics are there for basing, take control of the flag and this ship in that scenario was making it difficult and boring.

No. Would you like to see what you guys have catered to?



Two fucking thumbs up, not only can WB's spawn 'til their heart's content, you've also assisted LT's in running wild. Publics are not there for basing, at least not anymore, because you removed a good method of dealing with an ACTUAL problem, and a BIG one, that basers face. But I guess controlling a flag with blue bombs knocking holy hell out of you is less "difficult" and "boring" than having to actually communicate with your team and keep the flag room safe from a few relatively harmless Weasels.

EDIT: I've still heard nothing about the teamkilling javs that continue to run rampant despite the crippled Weasels. The LT's are pretty much free to do as they please in non-pure pubs, and I don't see much happening with the javs in the pure ones. The learning experience in pubs is dead. Good job, staff.
