SquireAngel Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 So, you took one of the most skill rewarding frames and instead to cheese with her 4, rather than actually engage the game....I really can only recommend to, y'know, actually play the game?

achromos Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 You know... Even using a Resonating Soundquake build min/maxed for that as much CC as I can do with that... I don't drain more then half my energy... I still use sonar... I still use silence for quick CC so I can run around. Weird that I've never gotten a told I was inactive, right? This is coming from a guy who has... Zenurik, Arcane Energize, AND a good supply of energy pizzas should the first two fail me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)BULLS 0N PAR4DE Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) I might tend to agree that some seem to over do it with how they use a ability. The fact remains that they are doing it within the game limits and not glitching it or using a weird loop hole to achieve it. That being said you should not be punished for doing so. Some frames ultimate are designed to not have the frame move. Why have snipping weapons if the sniper has to move to get a reward? In conclave there are a few very good and hard to detect snipe spots. Why should a player be rewarded with kills in that system but punished in the PvE system? I think DE does a pretty good job of giving us a playable game but these little inconsistency annoy a lot of people.

(XBOX)BluAina Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Instead of allowing you to use the afk nature of said abilites why not have a notification of being afk. Could flash across screen show a little symbol on ui idk, would help with those who have the p4tw mentality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except instead of npcs wandering aimlessly, they are now thrown into the far corners of the maps and stumble around. Having a banshee on the team is now just as bad as the old mirage. Nothing to do but sleep. So yeah, you can't stay in one spot for two minutes at a time without being penalized, woopee. Move around. Play the game. Better yet, let others play too. This augment has made Banshee's other powers absolete. I've been in a dozen or more missions with banshees and instead of seeing them use silence or sonar its immediate hit the ground and stay there, that's it. No sympathy here. They need to nerf the living frak out of this augment. Or better yet, actually make it do something interesting and interactive.

The power may exist and you may be able to use it forever but they also put the AFK system into place. Which means they are entitled to say you can't use a single ability for a certain time without moving. Your argument is pretty moot at this point. Move on.

jonnin Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 you get the same thing with mesa. The game expects you to move once in a while. Its annoying, but its not that big a deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was implemented to penalize rubber-band camp-farmers. So, if it marks you as AFK during 2 minutes of inactivity while spamming sound quake it works just as intended! Have fun.

Praxxor Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) The point is that the game should either: Not allow you to be static for two minutes because of abilities (such abilities should not exist IMO, we are space ninjas nah?) Detect that the ability makes you immobile, and enable the AFK timer soon after the ability ends. (You can stay rooted in one place with Sound Quake for well over 2 minutes, which will trigger the timer all the time) Basically, this is a feature, and this feature allows you to stay in one place for 2 minutes, and it's also beneficial energy-wise. You should not get punished for something that's integrated in the game Edited July 25, 2016 by Praxxor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SurrealEdge Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 You still chose to take your time to immobilizing yourself in one spot. Banshee is more capable than just being a stationary stunlocking turret. When running sorties, always expect to be the heavy hitter and go prepared for it, not expect matchmaking to put you on a squad that is ideal for the situation.
