Frustration : "BOX"

[Dyson]

ok, for those that doesn't know, ill make a example what box means :

Box is a old style of fighting using 4 strafe bottons
We, in the void mod have strafe upp and strafe down thanks to some modifications
by typing these keys fast one after a nother  :  upp left down right your ship performs a uniq fighting manuver called the box

Performing this manuver, the little helping + that helps you aim will go crazy around the ship forming a box, [visual illusion]
you can stil lhit the ship if you ignore the helping dot or + by looking only at the ship, but sometimes your fire will simply got at the + insted of the ship

all together will give you a very big dodge power, you will doge aproximatly 90% of the enemyes fire


ok, so this thing, is a very big frustration
[please don't start topics, like you did it, you can beat it, or that I can who knows what, we are talking only about the box]

In vanila Freelancer [original freelancer] you don't have these controlls, these accesories are really anoying
olso using the box while revircing thrusters will just put you in fiering posision vs the target and will offer you ALOT of time

server staff, please consider deleting these controlls,
[the roll is ok, cause its only in cockpit but, strafe up pand dow nare a VERY big frustration]

LoL, that is one tactic. who is easy to destroy if you know. I know that topic start because me. For me is anoying snipers wepons...


Bat that is game, you adapt to that. All is easy to defet. Box is easy to destroy.



AND THIS IS VOID, NO SOME OTHER SERVER!

[Dyson]

I had to green you specialy in game to tell you its not about you but I gues it wasn't enough

olso , im not starting anything on snipers or missiles, meny ppl use them, its not soemthing you can fight to stop, but this strafe thing is out of its place, sorry

[Mrtvacina]

it is the sam thing dyson. It is lice: admins tace you sniper weps down from ship

Hi i have to agree with dyson here i think the "BOX" technique is rather frustratin, yes its a good fighting technique for some but i personally dont thing its even a skill not tryin to be funny here but anyone can do it but there is only one that i know hwo can do it well and he doesnt do it every PVP and he hasnt replied to this post so it isnt u Red.
So basically it wud be good to remove it as then it will show true PvPin not silly techniques......
Thats all from me

Cya out in the black!

I am fuly agre with Enchantress.

[Dyson]

lol, red, take a little brake mate, lol, its not about you, je**

it is the same effect enchantress, BUT you don't have visability to the target, Boxing and soem other little tricks combined offer you a big advantage

[Kosmiker]

In my humble point of view, "Box" is as much frustrating as half-dozen of 1200 speed gun with overrated energy/damage can get. Both things are in the opposite/extreme edges of pvp tactic styles.

I try to keep up by using a middle term pvp style, not sniper neither boxeur and I got say... it's not easy but it ain't also the end of the world.


Nice topic btw.

[Serpentine]

Agreed with Dyson,

even tho I don't have nothing against boxers, they can be easily destroyed.

Simple explanation.  Dyson feels he is one of the best pvp'rs in the Void.  He has stated this in the forums on many different occassions.  Fact of the matter is there is a handful of players using the boxing technique that he is unable to kill, which frustrates him.

Everyone has their own techniques that make them a unique pvp'r.  The server staff shouldn't make unnecessary sacrifices to strip the mod of strafing techniques to please you so you can kill just a few more players.

Go play the game.

lmao m8 you just said how to beat it? so y don't you do so to beat it? i don't see a problem in box as you said just aim at the ship it's not too hard lol you just have to keep your mouse + thing on the ship and not one the +.... as i said this is not hard

All I can add to all this is, BOX can be easily destroyed, it took me some time to figure out the best way, but now, I know the deal, you'll need to take punch or two on shields, but in 2 or 3 runs BOX is in pieces. So, I don't see the point of this topic. All I can say, practice, practice, practice!! Develop your tactics, and you'll find out how to kill player who uses box, they are not immortal...

If this controls are to be removed, what's the fun and expectation in PVP, you'll need to put some effort in killlin you oponent, not just kill him in 2 passes. My vote is keep the controls as they are.
