They were already damaged. It takes 4 alternate shock lances to bring down a jugg from full health. I thought I've seen a jugg get taken down in 2 emp nades before, from full health but.. well.. I don't play tech enough to know and I don't use the jugg enough to find out.
I saw my Jugg die from two EMP nades -once-. I think there's some special way to hit the thing that kills it faster, but I don't really care. Two or three nades and most sane people abandon it :p

Hey [BBF]Mantik, what happened to your web site? The XMP forums are down....

Not to hijack, but http://www.clanbbf.com , a new mod was being installed so if you checked sometime last night or earlier today they were down for a bit. Also, some forums got re arranged so if you were following to the forums from an outside webpage they might not have had the correct forum # to the Unreal series.

Ok, carry on with weapon balance..

A long long way from home...
I think the weapon balance is good personally... Maybe decrease splash damage for gunners :D

They don't really pose too much of a problem tho... ;)

Was it true about flame turrets then?! :eek:

What about Gas spamming turrets for a laugh...

Or turrets that you have to reload or recharge?

know what... i haft to say that any weapon balance issues that are found should be fixed in beta testing, since u2xmp just needed to have the weapon balance fixed, and as for the other stuff mentioned, leave that alone, with fmi... let fmi do there job... and anyways, if you want to fix the problem you spot, learn to code and create a mutator to fix it, after all, that is what they do to ut2k4.... and if your clueless about where to start, a good place to begin is to go to these 2 links.... http://sv2.3dbuzz.com/vbforum/unr_main.php ... and... http://chimeric.beyondunreal.com/

XMP was one of the few games that the weapon balance worked fine. My vote? KEEP IT THE SAME!

I strongly disagree with that statement...
I don't really care...but why?

The weapons in XMP were specialized. Obviously going up against a Rocket Launcher with the pistol you are probably going to die. But then , you don't only have a pistol and you have the option of running away. I enjoy the game because the weapons are specialized and you can't just run around with one weapon the whole game and be successful. Although gas is pretty gay, I still respect that it's uses outweigh it's misuses.

I read the other people's post and its the difference in classes thats lends to the weapon mismatches and that is on purpose

yeah, so basicly people are being biased ok seen as i lay ranger i want the techs shotgun to do 30x less damage same with the gunners rocket :p
