High ping and the typhoon.

Post » Sat Mar 09, 2013 9:37 am

When I first unlocked the typhoon I was super excited. I didn't get a chance to unlock it in the beta. When I first used it I was in love. My ping was never over 80. But now I can't seem to find a server where my ping under 150. Now the typhoon is useless. I emptied 2/3rds of a clip into someone and they still won the exchange. I know how the typhoon works and I know it can be beast. So to test this I sought out a server where my ping would be back in the 80's and sure enough it beast again. So now I only play on two servers as those are the only two servers that keep my ping 80 and below. When I can't do that I use my trusty fy71. What do you guys think? Have you noticed this too?

The Scar has always been a beast. Any info on how the Grendel performs? Sdub?

Overkill pack comes with pre-order lost its meaning! For real! Typhoon awesome and a strong weapon ( killing aliens ) in single player, but for MP totally useless......

I've only come across one person using the Grendel, but they used it to great effect. Very accurate.

Only a handful players can use it. Depending on how you handle it, your aim, your sensitivity, it can be as good as Scar. It really took skill to use it in C2, not sure how it is in C3.

I love the typhoon. It can be an insta kill in the right hands. But for some reason in servers with a high ping I just can't use it. I now use the fy71 primarily. Waiting to get the scar. I tried the feline but had to pass. A lot of people boss with it I know but I just didn't like it. I will never use the shotguns. In my opinion they are way to op still. Also should you be able to get a headshot with armour on? I've dropped alot of people and they've dropped me with a one shot to the head while in armour.
