now the AC 20 projectile is so slow i litterally just watched a cataphract casually dodge it.

AC 20 should have it's heat lowered to compensate or make it weight less or do more damage

[p8ragon]

I think people are still compensating for the difference in projectile speeds (I know I still am)

give it a few weeks

Are you certain that it wasn't just bad aim?

Weeks? Do you only play one match every seven days?

They shouldn't have messed with it to begin with. A 120mm round travels at nearly 1600m/s, the ac20 shouldn't be firing at paintball gun speeds. And you shouldn't be able to see a gaint yellow ball flying through the air either(yes tracer rounds, but they look nothing like that. and nobody loads nothing but tracers).

My 9mm pistol is more deadly than a ac20.

One of the biggest guns in history fired a 24inch round that traveled (1,240 ft/s), you're telling me the ac20 is heavier than a artillery piece that had to be built on train tracks and only moved 6 mph?

The URL I get from the address bar is this one:


EDIT: Got it to work, my address bar added an "s" after http for some dumb reason.

I found the issue. My address bar has the link start as "https" whereas this forum seems to only accept "http" urls.

EDIT: Testing this theory:


EDIT AGAIN: Yay it worked. Just gotta remove that stupid "s."

The automated stuff on the boards looks for http://www.youtube.com and then accepts the rest of the link. Anything else, and it would fail outright.

Ran my YLW for 2 hours last night and had no problem still wrecking stuff with the AC20. The projectile speed was nice before but it still does 20 points of damage.

So what you're saying is that all lasers should have an effectively infinite range unless they put out a map big enough for planetary curvature to factor in?
