Maximum Suit Kill Streak

Post » Mon Mar 21, 2011 3:36 pm

Often when i achieve the maximum suit killstreak (which isnt often) I am accused of cheating/hacking.
I dont blame them... all they see is a normal guy running towards them and their bullets dont kill them. I would accuse of cheating, Infact, I probably did once or twice.
I think that is should be made obvious when someone is using maximum suit (make it glow red or something) to avoid frustration or W/E.

Yea, i get that alot too, sometimes even getting a message saying they are reporting me for hacking.
Its pretty hilarious though mowing them all down especially when they are close together.

The player already pulses their team color rather brightly when it's activated. Much like regular armor mode, except it's brighter and pulses.

Dude, you guys will not believe me! I was playing the parking Deck, and exactly what Hizaki claimed, i swear, man, My player glowed red! If only you could record battles.....but seriously,this was probably in the early build, and was never completely removed, truly i was astonished.

I never have an issue with it, seeing as there is an announcement whenever someone is using it. However, for the sake of people whose ears don't seem to work it would probably be beneficial to have it a slightly different colour.

People who have Maximum Nanosuit activated flash so they are already distinguishable from people who are simply in Maximum Armor.

I did say I have no trouble, but the glow of normal armoured players isn't constant either. I can see how the pulsing glow of armoured players could be mistaken for the killstreak.

People shouldn't be complaining about this since maximum armor isn't all that great.

You pretty much just take longer to kill but also have no stealth capabilities for the duration and glow like a big target. Headshots will still put you down faster and being assassinated is still there.

If you want to Cloak during Maximum Nanosuit you are doing it wrong. You are pretty much invincible in 1v1 and even 1v2 situations with Maximum Nanosuit activated. It gives you massive damage mitigation.

Not enough protection against good players who can go for the needed headshots or a simple stealth kill which pretty much ignores maximum armor.

If you are bad enough to die during Maximum Nanosuit in a 1v1 situation I have to question how you managed to get one in the first place.

The only people who get killed by stealth kills are campers and again, if you are camping during Maximum Nanosuit you are doing it wrong. Ive steamrolled 7 players over with an HMG and Maximum Nanosuit before in Crash Site.

Maximum nanosuit is actually a pretty powerful killstreak. I've held a crash site alone against a whole enemy team with it. (the rest of my team were apparently playing TDM)

For best results, use the LMG or HMG.. nothing says fail like being invincible but running out of ammo.

That happened to me once but than I went melee killing everyone close before I ran out of time. :D

Personally ive only ever seen 1 person bar myself with Max nanosuit and im level 50 lol.

IMO using an HMG is the worst thing u can do with the max nanosuit, u move so slow and a full clip of bullets will take u down, I personally prefer it with my shotgun, holding in the sprint button going through trillions of people, im aware that the kill limit is 50 but i still kill trillions.

PS. yesterday with Max nanosuit i had a ragequitkillxbox moment, max nanosuit, shotgun, charged to an unsuspecting sniper and power jumped right infront of him and died. Wtf? Turns out this sniper someone stealthkilled me as i charged at him from the front.... huh.

The HMG suggestion was referring to crash site games, where you can effectively hold off the whole team with your one man army and G3T T3H PO1NTZZZ

Maximum suit is the best killstreak by miles once you have one just wait to die, use it and then 100% of the time you will get another one while using it.

i dont do this anymore, as ive discovered it is as much a real curse as the 4 and 6 dogtag curses.

I turn on max nanosuit, get 1-2 kills and get killed ridiculously fast by some feline or something. or i just dont find anyone after the first kill. i swear my max nanosuit is crapper if i wait till i die to use it.

What the hell were you doing while that person was firing a full magazine of bullets into you? The HMG is literally a 1-2 hit kill depending on range and hit location. I always rip off an HMG before activating Maximum Nanosuit.. enemies fall like dominoes.

they shoot you in the back? HMG is bad for it, any competant player will destroy you from range with a SCAR, probably more than 1 of them aswell.

During Maximum Nanosuit? Hardly unless it takes you 3-4 seconds to realize you are being attacked, turn around and aim. If you lose any 1v1 situation during Maximum Nanosuit you should probably uninstall the game.

Sorry but I have to say this. Maximum Suit should make you look like energy is blasting off you your suit like Dragon Ball Z. It would make the user feel so awesome.

I think max nanosuit is pretty balanced. If they made it any more obvious people would just run instead of fighting the max nano guy. Oh and I've stealth killed a few nanosuit guys. Always makes my day when I do it. But then again I don't see too many max nanosuit guys or ceph gunship guys cause chances are I've killed them before they hit 6 or 7 dog tags :P
