    Engineer is THE class if you want challenging gameplay in PS2. We talk big, walk big, and carry a huge amount of tricks. Some people can't handle the low health. That's cool. Some people need that kind of "great job everyone, you tried your best so your all winners" kind of gameplay. You're not going to find that on Engineer. This is the adult class. No trophies for second place here.
    I've played on all the PS2 classes. There are some very good players on the others. But nothing like what we have here. I see players on the other classes who do things that simply would not be possible on Engineer, because if they tried that here they would be destroyed again and again. Engineer players are simply top notch. Whether VS, TR or NC, no other class has the same level of talent.
    Go ahead, flame me. But if you ever want to improve your score, come play on Engineer for a while, then go back to your old class. Going and playing on Heavy AssSalt or Memefiltrator for me is like playing against bots.
    Engineer = Hard Mode
    All the rest = New to FPS games? Play here to begin your adventure.

    A few more tips - you can use your anti-personnel and anti-vehicle turrets as footstools to get into areas that were unreachable for you before. The anti-vehicle turret is crazy effective - you can one-shot most infantry with a direct hit, deal massive damage to enemy aircraft (yes, if you master leading the rocket, you can take down aircraft at close and medium range). You can also deal crazy high damage to enemy MAX units, and if you're good enough, you can make the rocket "hop" over obstacles or cover to get that pesky infantry or hiding Sunderer. When your repair gun is near overheating while repairing a MAX, drop an ammo pack - the animation takes enough time for the repair gun to cool down, and you'll provide ammo to the MAX in the process. Also, you can repair a Harasser by sitting in it's back seat and positioning your camera in the right way. Who knows, maybe that also works on the Valkyries, but I'll leave that for the others to check. I'm not afraid of heights. Or gravity. I'm actually afraid of grounds. No, not heights, I know what I've meant! It's the grounds that kill you! D:< Anyway, back to the main topic. The anti-personnel turret provides a good cover against small arms fire. The anti-vehicle provides much less cover. But, if you're not using them and just duck behind them, you're much safer - also worth noting is that snipers love mana-turret users. They're easy targets - with the anti-personnel turret, if you know where the sniper is, at least you can position your turret in a way that will protect you from his shots. The anti-vehicle turret takes a long time to reload, but can be used for close-quarters encounters - you can surprise enemy infantry (because who's stupid enough to bring an anti-vehicle turret to a gun fight? The answer is - me! :D) - if they're not coming all at once, you can just pick them off one by one. Unless you miss - then you need to quickly dismount from the turret to still have a chance of surviving :P There's also a pretty neat trick I found - if you shoot with your anti-vehicle turret, instead of waiting for it to fully cool down when you're under fire and want to make another shot, dismount it for a second or two and duck behind it, then mount it again - the cooldown will still tick down if you're not manning the turret, meaning you don't have to be a sitting duck. If you're brave enough (or crazy like me), you can practically 1v1 enemy vehicles with the anti-vehicle turret if you're good at running around, plopping down the turret, making a single shot, then running into a different place, plopping it down again and taking another shot. The cool down for placing your turrets is crazy short. Also, if your target is right in front of you, you don't even need to lead the rocket - point at where your target is, shoot the rocket and dismount - the rocket will still fly directly where you pointed it at, so if the enemy isn't moving too much, then they're out of luck :P What's also pretty cool is that you can use your turret as a foot stool to get into a higher place, like I've mentioned before, plop down your turret there, and if you'll fall, you don't need to try to get back in there - if it's not too high and you see the turret, just jump, press the use key and you'll mount it again, using the magic of quantum screw-logic :D It's pretty handy when you place your turret on a wall - and what's pretty cool too is, you don't need to worry about being able to stand somewhere - if there's a piece of flat surface somewhere, you can place your turret there (as long as the projection is green). So, if you have a thin wall (for example in the BioLabs), you put down the turret on a wall at an angle (because you need to be able to stand on a solid ground to put down your turret) - the turret may not be facing the way you want to shoot, but you can get enough angle with it that it won't really matter - I don't know how it looks from third person view, but just imagine that you're either bending your body really hard while trying to stay on the edge of the wall and still shoot at stuff, or you're walking on air because invaders must die and you don't have the time to think about gravity. The anti-vehicle turret is also great for taking down enemy base defense systems and terminals. You no longer need to shoot things or waste your explosives at them. Enemy infiltrator took over something in your base? A few rockets, quick repair and sorry friendly infiltrator, you're too late you lazy bastard and I had to do everything as per usual, and I'm not switching to infiltrator, I'm a goddamn engineer! I worked on my degree really hard, go be sneaky somewhere else! D:< Okay, again, back to the topic. Or maybe not. **CAN'T YOU SEE I'M USING A TERMINAL HERE?! WHAT DO YOU WANT?!** Oh, okay. I'll be going then. They need me at the front line. As always. But I'm not complaining. Gotta repair ALL the things! Gotta resupply EVERYONE! Technology to the rescue! I, I mean me. Not technology. Me to the rescue. Wohoo... I wish those lady MAXes wouldn't run away from me so much... I just want to hug-I mean, I just want to fix them. And give them lots and lots of hugs-GODDAMNIT ammo packs, for heaven's sake! What's wrong with me today! I give them all the love and attention they need, and they either go into heavy fire to exploit me because they know I'll follow them into the depths of hell or sprint away from me once the action's over D:< Domo arigato mister Roboto... When I'm a MAX, nobody gives a damn about me ;_; And why do all those medics ignore dead MAXes and look at me like an idiot? I can't bring them back from the dead, there's a goddamn person inside there! Why can't I just kill that damn medic and take their gun to heal, revive and repair and ressuply everyone and everything?! I just want to be needed ;_; But instead I have to duck behind reckless MAXes and hope I'll stay alive and don't let them die D: It's so stressful, you know! Run into cover at least for a second! This damn thing is overheating already! You will die! D:< I could probably take the scrap from dead MAXes and make a giant robot army instead, but there's blood and fleshy bits all over it, it's just so icky! Eww! I don't even want to think about it. **YES I'M GOING GIVE ME A MOMENT!** Jesus, why everyone around here is so mean. It's not like this facility is taken over or something... **I'M NOT IN A RESTRICTED AREA, SHUDDUP NC LADY A.I. THING WHY ARE YOU WORKING FOR THE ENEMY SHOULDN'T THE RESPECTIVE ENEMY A.I. TRY TO KICK ME OUT OR SOMETHING?! OW! OWW! HEY, STOP IT! It hurts! I'm gonna die ;_; Pls, stahp. Plss. Quickly, where's the "post comment" button! No no no the spandex people are here!** So... if you're reading this, I'm dead. My corpse is located on Cobalt's Indar continent, at the Secure Data Lab, near the terminal number 3. I'm not moving anywhere, unless the spandex people do something to me. Medic, bring a Lazarus device with yo---

      LordDragox412 yes, repping in valkyries does work, although like the harrasser when you are in the seat the repair time is significantly longer than normal, so it is just easier to just get out and repair unless you are getting chased by enemies and are heavily damaged.

    • @LordDragox412

      Yep, that's what I love to do :P The majestical power of nanites, and suddenly a ram van becomes a reality! :D What those poor roadkills don't know is that engineer's turret is awesome at stopping harrasers from running you over. I wonder if there's still this funny bug where if you spawn a turret inside someone it will kill them instantly (because nanite magic). Similar things went on with harrasers from what I remember, where it would either instantly destroy them, launch them a bit into the air or just damage them a good bit. They really like leaving some bugs in the game xD I found a bug in alpha that I've reported many times through the alpha, beta and release versions, and it didn't get fixed. I'm talking about a "make camera fly into the sky!" bug - basically, you can make your camera bounce up and down, making it clip through the ground and get launched into the air back and forth, getting lower and higher with each bounce. You can do it by crouching certain way - you simply press crouch, and before you fully crouch you release the button. Then, before you fully stand, press the button again. Repeat it over and over, and with good timing you'll have plenty of fun :D I've discovered it while trying to rapidly crouch and uncrouch in the alpha to act all derpy, but instead the game derped, not me. But at least the long crouching animation prevents people from teabagging each other, so at least there's that, I guess. And I still manage to sometimes launch my drop pod into the sky or bounce in a random direction and spin when I'll hit a tree with it. My two records were two minutes spent in the air, waiting for the pod to drop down after getting launched off the height scale and getting sent two areas further than I intended to. Once I've spent almost 15 minutes sitting on a very high tree's branch with a Vanu sniper, and we were casually talking about stuff, making jokes and killing TR below. Good times. But then I fell while trying to walk on a thin branch that had no collision and i phased through it D:

    • @camycamera
      @camycamera 9 років тому

      LordDragox412 i don't think that spawning a turret on someone and killing them is a bug, its a feature. similarly how you get killed if someone spawns a vehicle from a vehicle terminal and you are standing on the vehicle pad.

      @LordDragox412 9 років тому

    @BoltHardcheese 9 років тому +1

    Now that Max units can trigger tank mines, I no longer consider them situational, as there are always enemy max units. Setting up 1 just inside the door (but out of sight) of the entrances of a control point/generator room helps when an enemy Max comes rushing in to try and wrestle control away from you. I run the regen 1 implant and find that sufficient for a support class.

    You should almost never let your repair tool completely overheat. Unless you have a sunderer or infantry terminal nearby. Use your repair tool as needed until it nears the top of the gauge. Stop repairing and you'll find that the cool off time is a quicker than if you started from full, and you can commence repair in the middle of the cool off period if necessary.

    We want ASSAULT RIFLES for Engineers, not Medics. Medics are front line classes meant to breach and clear FOR the Engineers and MAX suits, Engineers are meant to repair vehicles behind lines when they get damaged. Engineers also have ammo packs, but a stationary close range target is much more vulnerable than a stationary long range target.

    • @plainlake

    I wouldn't recommend placing ammo packs TOO far apart, though- if you're standing within range of multiple packs, you'll resupply off of all of them, which can replenish an empty ammo reserve right quick.

    Main critics about the game that it is semi-futuristic. In one hane You have levitating tanks, in other - simple shotgons, pistols, propulsions... somwhere in very start it is made by wrong concept. If You want to shoot bulets, place explosives, You can play Battlefield. There must be more futuristic features - no bulets, no hotgas propulsion, no tanks on chains and BMPies, cycles on wheels. C'mon.
    Another thing: make, please, real free look trackfree(headtracking) support and without rotating haircross with view. Thanks!

    • @ZekeyMaster
      @ZekeyMaster 8 років тому

      +Jānis Grīnvalds Then how do you expect the tanks to move? Shoot guns? Have fast transport? Making all of them have maglev abilites or lasers would make the VS have no unique features.

    •  8 років тому

      +enzo oh this simply not giving impression of futuristic warfare. It's WW2 with shields and spawns. Visual and military concept is too yesterday. Tanks also look vintage, even if motion parts could stay as they are.
      what and how we are shoting? - Modern is magnetic rail gun, laser, maybe something plasmatic or hot gas vortex, lighning balls, etc.
      bmpies are so high and unstable proportionaly...
      some giroscopic solutions could be tried as vehicles on 1 or 2 wheels.
      ESFs are absolutely slow in flight mode... they should be at least as fast as planes of WW2(2x faster) and fly above 700m they are so easy targets, therefore as concept ridiculous

    • @ZekeyMaster
      @ZekeyMaster 8 років тому

      With the vehicle stuff, that could work.
      With the guns, I still would say the VS would still have no special weapons since the lancer shoots (What it looks like) charged plasma. Plus, this a game, the Developers can be as crazy as they want unless they are making a Simulator.

    •  8 років тому

      +enzo oh game - not simulator...it's not argument. Another thing: realism and logic. If tank, dalton, etc. can destroy esf into peaces..in fact always esf explodes. Why bodies of infantry always are in one peace when hit with heavy weapon? Couldn't they make such damages unrevivable? That would add factor to a game...destroy bodies in order to make them not healable...with c4 or granade for example.
      It's not about being simulator, but putting logic. If game is about people running and sooting, then please place adequate images of destruction. It can be even arcade where proper phisics and destruction are provided.

    • @ZekeyMaster

    Hire a new dev team and start work on PS3. Give daybreak a chance to start from scratch. Give how I was promised the goliath super heavy a year ago, it's time to start over.
