I don't know if you guys saw this video already but since most of you frequenters are old timers I'd assume you can help me dissect this.

 

Can I get your opinions on this: https://www.youtube....h?v=Xus6xJXTaGk

 

How the hell did this guy execute that dodge maneuver? THAT IS F*CKIN' SICK.

 

This appears to be a scout mech with air compressor and air 180.

 

Based on my limited knowledge of Japanese, the title can be roughly interpreted as "correct way to use the air 180" or whatever f*ckshit.

 

Now that I've seen this, can AC + 180  somehow be a theoretically viable combo if abused like so?

 

 

I've been away from this game for almost year now; have to army and sh*t. From what i see in the forums so far, maybe kinda glad i did and kept away from the same old sh*tstorm that drove me away in the first place; depressingly low population with the usual stubborn and hostile PUGs, smurfing and rampant cheating, exploits not being fixed, yadda yadda yadda.

 

So what's the sitch in regards to development so far? I'd rather hear you old timers yap on this rather than just hearing from Capnjosh and looking at the official stuff.

 

Also is there anything we can still do to try help promote this game ourselves and keep this damn thing on life support just long enough for a miracle? Or is it just too far gone for salvation?

 

This game should still deserve a comeback, if only there was more marketing from Adhesive and Titanfall (as much as I like it as well) didn't steal the spotlight due to being coincidentally out around same time as the steam update. I still like this game even though I don't play anymore ( T^T)

 

There is no other games out there I know that does fast paced mech action, it's just this game and Titanfall, and MWO just doesn't cut it for me.


Ya'll giddy up now.

Jump>airdodge while turning into an air180.

It's pretty simple, just looks complicated since it's executed in such a quick (also clumsy..) manner.

Both of those internals are already viable, but I personally wouldn't advice using both of them at the same time.

 

 

I can only bother to answer the gameplay-related questions.

1. All he did was boost-jump and 180. He actually overcompensated his aim and missed his set-up. Sure, it looks sick but it put him at a disadvantage there.

2. No.

3. No.

It helped that the assault decided to spacebar around like a fool.

Come on Crafty, you have been officially called out on your lies. Your online reputation is at stake here, this is just like an old school street race running for pink slips. Its run what you brung and hope its enough. Put up or shut the fuzzy bunny up.

That almost looked like a proper 360 noscope to me. Almost.


I simply cease to believe that something is OP just because it's OP.

Now, I would find that impressive, if he wasn't in the most agile mech in the game.

 

A G2 Raider would be a different matter...

"correct way of 180 degree dance"

Basically: dodge>dodge back>boost jump>180>air dodge>land>dodge

Quite beautiful, even with stupid enemy like that, every moves were necessary or he dies.

Scout + 180 internal, yes and what he did was nothing but showing off, there was no real reason to use 180 turn in that situation. 

 

If you wan't to know how you could use it sometimes, you better watch ak budder's videos.

lol he could have achieved the same thing by just NOT doing 180 and turning his mouse to the right after he jumped forward. his enemy would have been in his line of sight to shoot at. instead he gets disoriented and his team helps clean up luckily

 

also wanted to add that 180 is the new meta but no one knows how to use it properly in cqc

His 180 didn't do anything productive.
