So I was going through youtube, trying to find some good footage of the reaper played by someone with a pretty high mmr, so i can learn a bit (if you have any, drop a link) and I came across this:
 

 

The Reaper having 640 HP, along with other mechs seeming to have more health, the map colors, and GUIs all make me think this is another version of hawken.
Now, this video was uploaded in Feb. of 2017, so it's very new. Is this a console video? Or are some people already updated? That wouldn't make sense, is some were and some weren't, i know I'm not.

Speaking of which, when is our update coming?

Well, when this post gets approved, my "1 post per day" restriction will be officially removed! 
Sorry if I started posts before and never replied, but with the post restriction is quite annoying.

This is old PC footage. No way it was played recently. Idk why it was uploaded recently. I'll get you your high MMR reaper footage tonight. It's 10:19 right now. Will update when my video is live.  

 

EDIT: Here it is.

first off - that video is from the ascension patch - late 2013, before wreckage, bunker, Predator, incinerator, either one of the G2 mechs, any of the co-op modes, the February patch, and the steam release.  this is also when MTR/ADH were still a thing.
 
Second - merl's video does cover some of the basics of reaper, but in the sense of any other mech - landing your shots is paramount more so with reaper, but still applies with anything else as well.  what the reaper really shines at is positioning.  it's fuel tank is the second smallest of A's, but has the highest fuel regen rate.  This means that setting up a flanking run - remaining just on the outside of the main fight, helping teammates seal the deal on those kills, or punishing the enemy for trying to start a flank themselves - is very easy to do.  I would even go so far as to say that a pilot utilizing this aspect of the reaper should almost appear to be in many different places at once.
 
the reaper's ability - precision overdrive - is.. well.. ..kind of "meh".  it basically reduces any and all spread any of your weapons have, regardless of being scoped in or not, which might be useful in short to mid range combat.  then again, an enemy will think that closing the gap is going to be the right direction to go in killing you (which it is), and at that point, the spread on the sabot is negligible due to your target appearing to be much larger than your reticle.  6 of one, half-dozen of the other. I dunno.
 
the reaper is in a so-so state, with practice, it can be a formidable mech, capable of assassinating a large number of targets of opportunity and applying a great deal of pressure to the enemy, and the concievable ability to hold its own in cqc - something that most pilots would take for granted.
 
TL;DR : with reaper - land your shots, reposition quickly and often with intent to harass and apply pressure, land your shots, don't be afraid to work on that cqc(cuz reaper can be good at it), land your shots, and get used to having an ability that really isn't that much of an ability.  And land your shots.
 
also, her'es a great place to really sink your teeth into all things hawken -> https://community.pl...-guides-hawken/
 
Silverfire has done a great job of putting this stuff all in one spot.

I've found that the reaper's ability makes it good at assisting allies that find themselves in a duel and outside of the regular effective range of the SA-Hawkins and the AM-SAR. Other than that it feels very pointless. The reaper isn't quick enough to kite with, and as a long-range opener option the ability would be so situational at high level play because of how much cover is utilized and provided in literally every map in this game.

One thing i just noticed watching those videos is how much high mmr players change focus between targets. You'll shoot 1 guy, then shoot a different guy, then finish off a different guy, etc

When I "metaphorically lock on" to a target, I tunnel-vision to the point that I'm not even aware of my health anymore lol
That's one thing I need to work on.

Here's a good example of target switching.

Nice! o.o
Had to watch it twice lol

I remember when i got my first and only Pentakill :')
It was with the raider, and it was one of those moments where i think to myself "this is going to be either a really awesome surprise raid, or a really stupid suicide head dive"

And I went in from behind as everyone was low on health after a while of stalemate at that choke point in Uptown, and finished everyone off :D

I'm not trying to be a fuzzy bunny but seriously stop with that gaudy watertag in all of your content. I know it didn't persist in the video but having that in the video main screen makes me not want to watch.

First, what the fuzzy bunny is a "gaudy watertag"?

 

Second, what the fuzzy bunny is the "video main screen"?

 

It'd help tremendously in this discussion if you'd use the proper terms and understood what they are and their purpose.

  • A watermark is a faint overlay on a picture or video to protect from someone else stealing and reusing the picture or video.
  • A thumbnail is smaller image representation of a larger image or a summarization of upcoming content in a video.
  • An intro is a short video introduction placed at the beginning of a video.
  • A logo is a graphical design used to help identify its product.

 

This is nothing more than your personal dislike and nothing else, it certainly isn't the established norm in the content creation world.

 

News flash, if you don't want to watch a video because you think a less than 3 second intro is too "gaudy", then don't fuzzy bunnyng watch it or blink slowly, but don't sit there and critique him and tell him he should just stop because that is by definition just being a huge fuzzy bunny.

Alpha.  Original name was just 'sniper' and it carried the same loadout as the sharpie.  I had a lot of fun with it. :smile:
