They definitely need a nerf. A-wing is making fighter squadron almost unplayable. DL44 is fucked but I don't die to it enough to feel it should be altered significantly. I only ever get outgunned by it close range.

Nothing gets more rage flowing in me than spawn camping fighters...
I keep seeing more and more people who just circle around the oposing team's spawn getting easy kills on arriving fighters. And most of there's nothing one can do anything because i'm the only only bothering with the Ion Torpedo, and 80% of people don't use the AT-ST's homing rocket.

In your experience, have you ever seen anyone other than a Jedi roll in Star Wars?
Well the stormtroopers were rolling about .... as they took blaster bolts to the chest.
So yeah not the same...
I need to play more Heroes vs Villains. I played a few rounds but didn't get into it.
Cargo and droid run are my favorite modes at the moment.
I just went 39 and 6 in a cargo match and still lost. It's frustrating to be put on a team of garbage. My partner (random guy) went 1 and 28.... I'm going to post the highlights of that match.
Hey, thanks It was nice playing with you. Amazing how we can do well and still lose, huh? So many teammates of ours were too occupied staying back to snipe.

I rocked a Tie Interceptor last night in WA with Han Solo's Lucky Shot. It felt good; real good.Nothing gets more rage flowing in me than spawn camping fighters...

And what is that GIF from? It's cracking me up!

Killing 10 enemies in a Fighter Squadron match is also impossible for me. I can't!
Just try to get the Falcon or Slave and ignore anything that isn't a player.
Easier than getting Slave I and Millennium Falcon... Any tips, played quite a lot and just never can destroy them, such a freaking lottery or lack of time.

Just been having some bad games the last few days. Don't know if it's me or if I am just getting stuck on shitty teams. Oh well, that usually means it is time to play something else for a few days. Always happens to me with online shooters.

Explosive shot in general is for fucking cowards.
I dont use it myself but I met two dudes who used it in Drop zone and I got rekt.

WHAAAT? This is awesome I'm a 35, I could make it to 45 at least with this.

It's range should be reduced, right now it's too powerful at medium range even.
The DL-44 is the most over-complained about element of this game. I wreck much harder with the DH-17 close range or the E-11 ranged. I know the burst weapons are even stronger than what I use.

I just got the Slave and the fucking MF flew into me... ASSHOLE!
Killed the MF once by accident xD
Edit: Just as I say this I killed the Slave a few mins later

I do that, unfortunately. Gotta level up somehow.

Outside of the DL-44 the guns in this game are very well balanced. Almost none is objectively better than another. I find myself switching between the E-11 and EE-3 constantly.
Level 50 here I come!
Yup. I roll between SE-14c, E-11/EE-3 and the RTC970 or whatever it's called.
Yes! Looks like I'll have the platinum in time for Christmas!
Here you go, that cargo match I said I'd post. This is how you go 39-6 and still lose.

I haven't used the RT-97c much since they added more recoil to it, but otherwise yeah these are the guns I use the most.
I used to use the T-21 a lot more, but I've been finding more hitbox issues lately where I have to guess where the enemy hitbox is going to be in order to land shots. Not all the time, just on certain server connections. So high accuracy but slow fire rate weapons are death in that type of environment, including the DL-44 in some cases unless I shove it in people's faces.
The SE-14c on Endor is godly. I like it more than the DL-44 there now.
I've been there man cargo can be pretty frustrating especially if your doing really well.
Edit: I'd figure that I would upload a run I did in a AT-ST on Endor WA and got 30 kills before they took me down. AT-ST fun on Endor Walker Assault.

It's great for wasting like 3-4 people in a row at midrange without cooldown or for long range cover fire (if your team is privy to what you're doing) but otherwise I prefer the EE3 for versatility. Although, that one is way too slow in close quarters.

It's hard to win anytime you've got teammates going 1-28, but I can't help by feeling you spent most of the match just trying to help your team not lose, rather than trying to help your team win.
You're the best player on your team. Show the other team who's boss by both capturing the cargo and defending your own at the same time.
Wait! Are you on PS4? Was it on the Jakku map? If so you may have shot me LOL! Hell of a shot either way... but don't get cocky
Just saw this awesome cinematic video, man this game is pretty - if only there was more to do.
