Pretty much what I expected.

…hey, you don’t know. Maybe Kira stole Bushwhacker’s hat? >_>

And his turret? :stuck_out_tongue:

Why do I feel like Sparks stole them, not Proxy or Kira :smiley:

I wonder how people will feel about Phantom now that they actually get to use him.

(L3thalGho5t) #9

Nooooo Not Phantom… Get ready for people running around with there heads cut off trying to knife someone.

Oh God, this means all games will be full of Phantoms, who are now useless because you can see them easily even in cloak.

Notice what the devs did though. They put Bushwhacker into the free rotation. Phantom’s invis, while not as hidey anymore, still counteracts the turret. He can slip right by it.

Looking forward to seeing what players can pull off on the flanks.

Aw…I already have Phantom and Sawbonez. I guess I can laser all of them to death them…

True but the moment he shoots he’s targeted, so he’ll have to be out of the turret’s range before he begins firing, plus, Nader and Fragger can get rid of the turrets quite easily.

I was more inclining that people will actually get to play him in his current state, and hopefully form a better opinion about him.

I swear, if Phantom isn’t fixed by then…well…sh*t.

Best rotation to play Rhino.

Except it only targets in the front arc. If you slip behind it and decloak it won’t fire at you. Gives you a chance to get a good angle on it, or to just slip by unnoticed to the objective/flank. Shouldn’t be too hard to do that on most maps and scenarios.

And agreed, hopefully people will learn to respect his current abilities and help determine if anything needs to be changed further.

It was also just announced, for those who can’t watch, that this weekend will allow everyone to play as all the mercs. So that should be pretty great for people who want to try before they buy.

hide your kids!!! phantom everywhere!!! D: D: D:

(Edzer) #19

So expect to see tons of phantoms running around the first couple of days, and then see them all quit playing phantom because of how bad he is right now lol.

8v8 Phantom war incoming! XD

Still, I’m really excited to try out Bushy and Saw, possibly even pull Nader out again.
