Re: So. Default Reach Remains Default Frankie?

In Response To: Re: So. Default Reach Remains Default Frankie? (Hoovaloov)


: Not sure why this matters. A spam kill counts towards the score just as much
: as an "honorable" paced kill. If anything, the TU makes it
: harder to start spamming and win the battle, because you don't have to
: wait that much longer to correctly fire the DMR.

: Here's an example. You round the corner and there within 40 feet is an enemy.
: You both see each other at the same time. The enemy starts to spam the
: trigger, you pace your shots. Assuming both of you keep the middle of the
: reticle on each other the whole time, after three seconds, who wins?

: 100% Bloom: Enemy - In 3 seconds, can fire ~10 shots
: You - In 3 seconds, can fire ~5 paced shots

: 85% Bloom: Enemy - In 3 seconds, can still fire ~10 shots (max. rate of fire
: is unchanged)
: You - In 3 seconds, can fire ~7 paced shots

: So in the TU, I believe that by pacing your shots, you actually gain more of
: an advantage over the spammers. Yes, the maximum bloom of the spammer has
: been reduced, making his spam more accurate by 15%. But you are now more
: likely to win the battle because the 5 shots you need to kill him actually
: take less time to wait for the bloom. Instead of 3 seconds, you're down to
: 2 seconds to get the last accurate headshot. The likelihood that his spam
: will be able to win out over your 5 paced, and therefore very accurate,
: shots that now only take 2 seconds to fire instead of 3, has been reduced.

huh, actually this is a good point too, and something I've kind of felt was true but didn't know how to verbalize

: Now of course, all these numbers are rough estimates, I have not performed
: this experiment. But I might now that I laid it out.

you should do it
for science
you monster

You cannot fall off the floor.
