@laudatoryLunch from the video it seems the cd is as far as you charge it (or till it overheats), e.g. if you charge it for 3 sec, cd is 3 sec.
(notice the longer it is charged, the cd timer grows on it in bottom right corner)

(GoobyOfPls) #44

Pimpin out my threads heh.

Yeah, I basically stalk the DBomb Twitter so when they announced Sparks I immediately saw.


(The99thProblem) #45

Cancel this and release Red Eye instead. Cheers mate!

Healing allies from cover seems pretty powerful to me. I would think she is very competitive no?


(APRenpsy) #47

Depends to be honest, on a defensive team I would like Aura as my medic for her healing station. For offensive Sawbones or Sparks.

One thing to keep in mind is from the looks of the video Sparks can’t revive people from a distance in quick succession look at her ability you need to charge it everytime. With the other okay yes you will be in danger but aleast you can spam that revive in quick succession.


(distinquishedSandwich) #48

I sooo don’t get why she’s got double sidearms though, but that revive gun could be tricky as hell if people don’t finish others off haha

Defibs can be spammed. This won’t be able to since it has to be charged. There’s also no point in having the long range revives if you have to be up close to heal people with medpacks. So yes, I’d have to say this is more of a pub class.


(XavienX) #50

Why is there older/different models of Revive gun in the vid…? Or are they different loadouts?


(Reddeadcap) #51

Seems to be footage from its alpha and current beta counterpart, the overcharging/heating mechanic must’ve been really new.


(GregHouseMD) #52

Finally, the medic I’ve been waiting for. Here’s hoping I can finally get a well-rounded squad of favorite mercs.


(distinquishedSandwich) #53

So Sparks will alwayys have a automatic pistols as a primary, and then a semi-automatic “side-arm”.
Meaing loadouts like Empire 9 + Deagle or MP440 + Selbstat is a thing… I guess we have our explanation to why Sidearms being as strong as they are then huh.

(Wish they had less aimpunch than primary guns though)

But hot damn Sparks, been a while!


(Sinee) #54

Anyone else sitting and waiting and checking for the patch, or is it just me? lol! So excited to have her. Take my money! Or whatever! Just take it!

[quote=“Bangtastic;29286”]Get rekt boyz[/quote]I imagine after that Phoenix dusts himself off and whispers, “that hurt, bitch,” before limping back to the battle.


(Abal) #57

Encoding problems ? Not sure if it’s the forums then. It may come from your navigator. Using Firefox, I have no problem so far : those special characters shows more or less perfectly. There’s surely an option somewhere to modify the encoding by the way.

I had the same problem in a crapton number of software programs that I used to work on html/php/css. When I opened the pages I created, some characters (like é or à : common characters in french) didn’t show up correctly. I managed to bypass the issue by adding a specification in my page telling that I use UTF-8. But a friend managed to make it work though his navigator just by checking an option. Unfortunately, I can’t remember what he changed. I’ll try to find that on google.

EDIT : But I am a bit off topic. Sorry. :lol:
