HobbesToo Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 "I" If I remember correctly there was a plan for up to 20 ships per faction... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemarus Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) Not sure what this post is supposed to do except reopen old wounds... You made me rush to reddit to see if something had been WOOKIEED. Speaking of which, I still have a bookmark to the WOOKIEED page where all the original ship descriptions are listed out, including the Infiltrators. Honestly, I am not heartbroken about their being scrapped. The models for them were all horrible, on both sides. And by the sounds of their equipment, they were going to be yet another class that depended on surprise burst damage. The game already has enough of that. The support variant, with the group cloak and other utility tricks, would be the only variant I want in the game. Though I would still much rather have competitive, viable Strikes than a brand new class. Edited September 2, 2015 by Nemarus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HobbesToo Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 The post wasn't meant to open any wounds, so I am sorry if it came across that way. However there was "something" I saw that brought a smile to my face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemarus Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 The most popular competitive e-game in the world has a constantly changing meta yet too many people here sternly defend the stagnation of GSF's meta. You people lean way to much on the theoretical and not nearly enough on proven results. On the contrary, I routinely advocate for dramatic, potentially meta-nuking changes if they might make GSF more accessible. But adding yet another unhittable burst damage specialist, with stealth, is not going to help newbs in Rycers take a liking to GSF. Buffing Strikes, on the other hand, might. Regardless, I'd like to know just what Hobbes "saw" to make him post this. Hopefully it wasn't just reddit flair icons of the Infiltrator, as those have been around forever.

MaximilianPower Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 You are correct in your hope, nothing to do with reddit flair icons. Your posts seem unnecessarily cryptic. Unless you're referring to info we aren't supposed to discuss here. Can you at least point us in the right direction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemarus Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) Well, not to stoke the fires of speculation and expectation, but there was a PTS update yesterday, and the WOOKIEES have yet to post much about it. It's possible Hobbes has done some WOOKIEE himself or is a WOOKIEE. In which case ... We should probably all chill so he doesn't get removed. Ha ha, Hobbes. Real funny joke! Ha ha ha!

HobbesToo Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 Yes, this is the type of information that those with yellow posts get excited about, and not in a good way. A little blue birdy showed me "something" that brought a smile to my face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemarus Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Oh. Oh my. I can't believe I missed that on my first hunt for info. I looked right at it twice, but it was low rez on my phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lendul Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 While I appreciate it. This is obviously a desperate attempt to bolster hope in a community that is wandering in a desert of non development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lendul Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Jeez, Lendul. You're like a one of these guys, sucking all the joy out of everyone. No I am just a realist. We could have 7X the population we have now and would probably still get nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin_Kelvar Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Man I want to believe it's legit since it seems Nem knows what you're talking about. But given that there hasn't been any dev activity here since the initial posting about a striker buff I'm not going to hold my breath that there is something in the pipes.

This is obviously a desperate attempt to bolster hope in a community that is wandering in a desert of non development. Perhaps this is an oasis of hope after all. Or...nah, it's probably nothing.

Enurrsha Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I assume Nemarus was being sociable & discovered an interesting image that I too came across the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin_Kelvar Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I assume Nemarus was being sociable & discovered an interesting image that I too came across the other day. I really really hope you're not pulling my leg. Sadly I have no idea where Nem and others go to find this stuff. Outside of the official dev posts on the official website my only other source of info has been Dulfy (which never sadly posted pictures of the proposed infiltrator ship). Here's hoping the devs make an update post sooner than later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
