Well, just click the link and everything will be self-explainatory. I'm a master pistoleer and was using a .9 speed FWG5 pistol. He was using a jawa (speed unknown). Now I should shoot fast... he was shooting much faster... 7 times a second! Can anyone explain this? OMG I can't wait for the combat patch (rifleman nerf patch). Well, maybe I can, I'm dumping this $POS$ game for WoW when it comes out anyway. Till then, back to chefing.

His command chain probably got stuck. I noticed this bug first happening about a month ago. If you spam your combat queue to much your commands will get stuck and you won't be able to do anything for a while and then they will all go through at the same time.

Clicky


First thing you need to do is breathe.


Now, calling nerf on another profession will not fix yours, so kindly stop with that nonesense. We hear enough 'OMFG I WANA BEE UB3R NERF RIFELZ' posts in a day.


On to the problem: You were not lagging (it seems), but perhaps your opponent was. If either one of you was, that could be an explanation. The first thing that came to my mind though was a certain bug that let specials 'save up' when just out of target range. When you got in-range, they would all fire at once. This was fixed from what I heard, but maybe not. In addition, new bugs pop up every hour. These things happen (you've had to have realized that at this point ). We all want the Combat Balance- even Riflemen. It will 'nerf' us, but you too. You don't have to PvP if you can't deal with things like this (not that you should have to) but the fix is on the way and there is nothing that you nor I can do about these problems until that fix gets here.


Have fun with Chef

Yup this has happened to me, for example when I spam meleehit2 with a 2 handed curved on a Janta, I managed to land 4 hits in a second- it's just the queue gets jammed for some reason if you press the attack key many times very rapidly.

Is this a joke? You really think that 7 shots a second is possible without lag?

Well he hit once in Second 51, twice in second 52, 53 and 54 and 7times in second 55...


But i just see, in second 55, the pisoleer shoots 8 times... so either something was majorly bugged/lagged on both sides, or the screenshot has been edited

Looks like a bit of a lag spike at around the 55s mark there where a bunch of queued combat commands from both sides got pushed through all at once.


Plus another thing to note in the spam is that the Pistoleer was firing just as fast as the Rifleman and in a few cases got a couple of shots in where the Rifleman only got the one in.

Actually to me it looks like you BOTH shot way more then once in second 55. If you accusing him of exploiting you might want to edit that part out lol.

BTW you also shoot3 shots per second, I see what the problem is, let pistoleers shoot3 more shot per second


Also when you go to WOW don't let the door hit ya on the ass, now if only the "jedi" would leave with ya.

Okay boys and girls, our new word for the day is "Hypocrite." According to Dictionary.Com, a hypocrite is one who is "feigns to be other and better than he is; a false pretender to virtue or piety; one who simulates virtue or piety"


The entire encounter lasted from second 51 to second 57. By my count in that time, our hapless hero here shot 25 times while the evil rifleman firing his obviously quadruple sliced Jawa and using some illegal speed hack fired 23 times. Now since the rifleman was so obviously cheating and firing faster, I have to conclude that this is explained by the fact that the rifleman was firingusing pounds and ounces while our chef, the obviously superior combat build, was firing using grams and kilograms. Because of the conversion rate, 23 ounces is way more than 25 kilograms.


To give credit where credit is due, you are right about one thing: by looking at the link, everything does become self-explanatory. Sorry to be so harsh, but all I have to say to you, Sleksheea, is when you and all the other whiners like you go, this game will improve greatly.

Hurry Run Go! I hear WoW calling you, but you have to leave now.



Nice post Sotaudi, but you know whiners hate it when the truth and facts come into play.

Sounds like the fix you need is more RAM. So, just wondering, how long was your screen completely frozen during this battle? I'm guessing about 5 seconds, then you caught up and all the weird, multi-shot per second instances showed up.


But, you know, you're nerf riflemen, dump this POS game, whiney, bitching, moaning, groaning, moronic, 2-year oldattitude may well be the reason a dev decided to bug your toon and let you get killed? Guess we'll never know. Your sorry little candy ass won't be missed. Go troll the WOW boards bitching and moaning when it comes and you realize it's not everything you dream it will be.


Rifle community, please excuse me, this pos just got under my skin with his attitude.
