PvP Suggestion

You haven't spent much time in pvp, have you?

Well then, ok. I'm not the one asking for ammo crates to be in 'PvP maps' as I know they already have them. Do you know the question you are asking has already been answered as what you are asking is already in game? .... You haven't spent much time in pvp, have you?

I never really had a problem with ammo and never seen it brought up before. But if I do there are ammo crates in PvP maps and you just need to know where they are. In SW a lot of the time they are by PvE respawn beacons, fast travel points, and Road Side emergencies. Or you can equip an ammo spike and problem solved.

Curious though what gun are you using to the point you are pissing out ammo to actually run out for it to be a constant problem?

On another note I personally have no problem with ammo capacity for weapons in PvP to be changed. But its something that needs to be balanced if implemented. Increasing the over all ammo count across the board would just give more ammo to the OP weapons to shoot. What I suggested a long time ago is to have the weaker end weapons carry more ammo and the stronger end weapons carry less.

Boomers and rocket launchers and sawed offs already do carry less ammo...what more do you want? Rubber bullets?

Well if you notice everything carries less ammo from what they normally do while in PvP. But that's besides the point.

The Boomer for all that it is has the same ammo capacity as the VBI Grenade Launcher. So where does that leave the VBI? Not even an option since the Boomer is everything the VBI is but better. Same reload, same fire rate, same ammo reserve , but way stronger and way bigger blast radius.

So yeah the stronger end weapons should have less ammo reserve while the weaker ones should carry more.

I use ammo spikes in pvp. Trick is not to use it somewhere obvious.

you dont pvp AT ALL do you? ammo spikes are very useful... its all about using one to refill then abandon it.. and your question has an obvious answer if you've spent more then half an hour on any pvp map.. ammo boxes are all over the place wow

Actually in shadow wars if you play it as capturing and holding a point, you no longer need ammo at all. Just drive your bike straight to the cap point, and die. The lag will keep you in the loading screen for most of the match and your dead body will continued to capture and hold the point.

I do spend quite some time in pvp. Actually pvp is all i do. Expeditions once i a while if i find a good group.

Dying in pvp is a hard task for me to complete lol


BTW to reply other posts, yes i do use ammo spikes occasionally but i always run out of them :/
And i don't really have this problem when i'm using a blast rifle, it's mainly an issue when i use a tachmag pulser.
Same goes for snipers, i run out of ammo way faster when i use frc repeaters or vbi rangers than when i use my surge bolter.

[Claydough]

um?? there is ammo in all pvp maps?

it is lacking in shadow wars however

also, i rarely run out of ammo unless i use a tachmag, or getting 20+ kill streak, but that is the trade off for having such a powerful weapon.

also, why cant you use ammo regen chips in pvp? can you not get killed with that .2 less reload?

[tarmim]

Yes, but i meant ammo caches, not the boxes
I think the chips replenish about 1% ammo every 10 seconds that's just not very helpful
