It's not really a bug, considering hook is supposed to bring you to where pudge is when the hook hits, and it's way too gimmicky to actually be OP.

ahahahahahahahah

fnatic might pick meepo, and you can hear the korean casters yell a lot

Hossin has just been added to the test server. Get hype guys.

Hey, that's a false statement, I'll fucking kill you if you say that again. Also, this surprises me greatly. Not the death threats part, the part where Cod players cared about balance.

Yes. Apparently.

Who the fuck is Zimmerman?

The general rule of thumb is that if it's not on daily deal, flash sales, or the vote sales, don't get it cause it'll probably get cheaper if it doesn't get it on the last day of the sale

Maybe, but he'd have a case of Omniknight syndrome, you just can't lane him anywhere well, cause he's a STR melee support That purge can purge almost everything though, from dream coil to friends grip, so he might be useful if they can find a place for him

Same. It's nice to see them finally do something, but I'm sure they'll goof something up, like always. If not then I'll be impressed.

What I see most people do is grab static remnant at level 1, overload at 2, then put 3 points into vortex so you can pull people into your remnant, then you max either overload or remnant

Are any of the lock on rocket launchers (Namely the air to ground one) worth it? They're cheapish, 250 certs, and seem useful. But I don't particularly know if they are efficient at what they do or if it's a pain to lock on, or some issues like that

I actually really enjoyed the rooftop bug near the 2nd cap. THANKS VALVE.

We are terrible people.

Stock weaponry is great, but upgrades/scopes/stuff and a few utility items are a bitch to grind. I really want to buy more upgrades for my LA, medic, and HA, but they're costing 100+ certs a pop Side note, one thing I am enjoying about planetside is that nothing is really OP, just offers a different playstyle. The x-something bolt action for vanu is my new preferred rifle on INF, because bolt action hurts like hell, and can actually get that one shot kill that the stock can't
