Balance for freeze rockets/slowdown mines

SG3N-BO3

Description - A highly unstable shield generator runs so hot freezing is out of the question

5000 shield strength / 70% less damage -5% chance resist freezing per generator -1% chance per generator to negate slowdown mine/rocket


idea for freeze rocket hunting. must sacrifice shield power if equip 16 generators that gives 80% chance of not being frozen by rockets and 16% chance of resisting slow mines and rockets. the more equipped the better chance with 20 equipped cannot be frozen at all

 

Hmmm interesting ... Im not sure how popular it might be to those who thought they were FE...

Maybe a protocol on the PET or a CPU...

I have to say I hope the R-IC3 will die a natural death as it makes more problem than it solves... yes I have lost kills for it but we already have DCR rockets... most ppl dont have 50 slots for quick-keys..

 

No thanks ...

I don't want to buy new equipment that to be honest, sounds horrible, just to counter 1 rocket. The rocket is the problem so it should be changed, not make the player pay more to get a possible counter to it.
It's so much worse than a B02, nobody would ever use this.

 

I actually enjoy the new rocket, It makes hunting / escaping so much easier now ( I just hate the silly animation, an ice cube in space? really??) .
Also, no one would buy new equipment just to counter a rocket that will freeze you for 2 seconds...No thanks.

 

^^ Just wanted to say the same thing.

 

well it better stay the same because I bought a 100 thou of them and dark orbit is know for changing things after there sold to players

 

You brought 100k of those Freeze rockets?? WHY????

 

freeze rockets should be removed from the game you can barely get any kills now without wasting an emp

 

That players $ account later got frozen and BP was slow to get their money if at all...the banks account probably poofed it

 

little do you know / I bought them because they are cheaper then slow down rockets and if they are like the bat / or cbo / or any special ammo then we will only be able to get them at special times of the year / and just so you know my account has never been frozen

 

Frozen with rockets? whatever... no-one said they should be taken away... maybe just that they remain limited to every Xmas ... here is to Christmas 2015... roll on the Birthday gate...

 

he said 100 not 100k, that would be insane lol.

By Summer time I believe that all the UFE would have no more Ice rockets since they use it on me like every 5 second (they team up on me) yet they cant catch me still... so it will work out, the idea of this BO3 would be defective as most players will run out of ice rockets if the thing starts to come out which takes a lot of developing and programming to put in. Plus no one uses dcr's now days, they cost too much for so little effect of killing a fast noob that you have like an extra 5 percent chance of killing him.

 

I think

but

as you have said and I also believe... they will/should run out eventually... this was an event idea (and not bad at that) and as such was fine, the 'Cold-Wave' gate used them and you could have them as a countermeasure...
May they rest in pieces next to other ideas...

 

It is cheaper than DCRs...Congrats on your purchases

 

I think they are fine as they are and nothing needs to be added to deal with them. They just need to be thought about when your hunting, no different then when dcr were added (but @20uri per its a pain since everyone has them).
