I use assault armour at level 48 and I have had no problems keeping up with everyone. I actually reached number 25 in top skill a few weeks ago
Is the loss in defense that big of a deal? Thanks for the reply. EDIT: Thanks to KillQuake too 2nd EDIT: Infiltrator has +TS? Is it better than the Assault's +TS?
Lol I think I'm lost how the hell do you use vap? I hold cross airs on target for what seems like forever and the vap does not shoot right away? It seems to take forever to shoot by that time the target is gone? I'm level 25 skill around 4k infl armour. Any tips to use the vap? I seem to do good with Ar
Sorry I was thinking of Infiltrator but you have Assault. No Infiltrator doesnt have +TS. The damage loss is not a big deal as I use Sniper and its not a problem.
Never got why people have so much problem with vap.. Just aim slighly above head for headshot (once for people ur lvl twice-thrid times to people higher) and aim anywhere npt head for kill or just spam it at body fqr away 3 times for kill
I haven't played this game for ages! I guess I kicked the addiction. It no longer became enjoyable having to play with so much lag and ngmoco not helping. I had sent an email to ngmoco to ask for my follower list to be emptied over 2 weeks ago and I have yet to receive a reply. Thank you for your great support, ngmoco.
Couldn't agree more! Lag should be like #1 priority. Lagging is no fun... you get killed by people you would normally play 10-0 and even worse can't aim correctly...controls and lag-free gaming FTW! Right now I'm getting this equation and it sucks for me: Vap+lags+scrolling in controls = impossible to aim => NO FUN Try deleting and reinstalling the app itself. I haven't tried that yet, but maybe that will help... I've tried everything else...turned off 3G, push notifications, rebooted etc. Nothing helps. Even on my noob account with no followers I get lags. It's sad...it's a wonderful game and the lags just kill it and render it useless for pro gamers IMHO.

Hanging up my vap Just so everyone knows, I'm done with this game. U won't see me in the lobby or global, or at all for that matter. I'm tired of fighting the game itself to be good versus actual players. I lost a total of 500 skill in 20 seconds (I hit my home button on accident, lost 250, logged back in and lagged out, lost roughly 100, rinse and repeat) and that is simply unnacepptable to me fir a gaming standard. U have virtually every premier player telling ngmoco that they have this and that fukt up with absolutely no change at all from them. The game has been deleted off my iPhone, and I won't be back, feel free to talk as much shyt on here as u like, i don't have time to dyck around with shytty programming and servers. Peace all, and terrorist if u read this, it's been cool brother, easy.
Sorry to hear that... we haven't even played that much So you are only complaining about the skill reductions due to connection problems and leaving? I'm not happy with some things too, controls+lags=nightmare, but I'm taking a break right now, hoping ngmoco will fix this soon. I would recommend not looking at the skill points. If you do this game is all about getting up on the leaderboard and it stops making fun. It's still an awesome game but I stopped because I realized I couldn't even aim right not due to my skills but due to technical difficulties. I think some things will get fixed in the next update so it's worth waiting and looking out for.
BTW, I've got a question to all rank 50 player and above... Do you feel like after reaching level 48 and above it makes less sense to level up anymore? I kinda miss not being able to to get the next upgrade on my weapons and armor. After Level 48 there is no level restriction anymore, all you need then is credits. I'm Level 74 now and there's now less reason to go any higher since most stuff can be bought and upgraded. At the same time it takes me like 4500 credits to get to level 75. And then it's like 5000+ credits to 76...this increase in one level is the same as jumping from Level 1-20. The only advantage you have is with prototypes that come upgraded to match your level. Do you guys feel the same?
Yea it seems kinda pointless to level up at this stage. Also I've heard from booyaka once you get to 77 there are no more prototypes to buy. Even the ones that get unlocked at 69 gt taken away from the buy gear section. 3 games a day at 70 cr per game means like a month to gt one level higher. I haven't played eliminate in a while to be honest. It's just not fun any more owning people to death. What's the point?
Well, I put up with this game for about a week after re-installing it. I've just deleted it again. Put me in the camp of people who refuses to play this game until ngmoco takes care of the lag issue. On my 3G, the game has been lagging HORRIBLY. I just lost 800 skill points (from 8500 to 7700) in a heartbeat because (1) I get dropped in the middle of a match; or (2) if I somehow manage to stay in, the lag is so bad that there's absolutely no way I can aim accurately, not to mention I'm essentially a sitting duck. What's frustrating is that it goes in-and-out -- when I finally get a lag-free game and think it's ok, then the lag hits again -- so I just simply don't know what I'm getting into when I hit the play button. I clear my memory using the MemoryInfo app every time before playing, as well as turning on airplane mode (w/ wifi on obviously), and it still makes absolutely no difference. I don't know how NOVA can be essentially lag-free for me, but this game makes me want to throw my phone into the wall, although thankfully I've restrained myself. I'll keep my mouth shut about the shield-camping/bashing that's just absolutely dominating gameplay, since I've b!tched about that enough. But I do want to say that frenchy732, who's around 9000 "skill" level, is the biggest f'ing douchebag shield camper.
1. Welcome to the camp. I can completely relate to your problems. I hope the next update will be all about performance and control options. At this point I don't even care about new levels and weapons. Without proper performance it's impossible to aim and therefore to win and play. Who wants to play a game if you're getting owned because of problems that you can't control. If the controls and lags are still persistent in the next update I will be very disappointed. 2. That's exactly what I said like two weeks ago...it makes me want to throw my 3GS against something really hard. It's not it's fault though. 3. Yeah, I think he is a known shield-basher. I played him a few times and had to run for cover. But I don't hate on those people...if that's their style it's ok... I mean it's like a totally different strategy to a FPS game
Yeah, we both had those lags for some time now... Now more US people are coming up with the same problems...Hopefully they will get fixed. PS: I would recommend contacting mjmoco over TouchArcades PM to ask her!
