I love the "help" of my 10 easy to mow down adds when I am playing antagonist. What the fuck am I gonna do to a stalk spamming heric, rak, an alicia player with the smoking daisy one shotting me , and a Hans? I know what to do. Get fucking bullied by the hans, alicia and rak in cqc while the bots are doing fuck all to the raiders, leave the game, and lower my MMR so I can bully some noobs.
So MSE when we say fix the game we don't mean add a new way to pay for the game we mean improve this game, or its gonna die.
MSE would know the problems with the game if they actually played it. (I highly doubt it).
There are some raiders who are downright nasty to play against. Yes, Alicia with her smoking daisy weapon (worse is her Rock & Roll), which by the time she's on you, jumping all over the place you're pretty much dead. I do think a nerf on her special ability is needed. To be able to constantly spam her double jump isn't really fair and in some maps , with plenty of walls and obstacles to jump off, she's unbeatable.
Harec, can be very hard, especially when you don't know where he is and he's just waiting for you.
Hans, with a CQC card equipped can pretty much kill you in one, especially if he has an added bonus card of more damage after using jetpack.
Rak, he can be incredibly difficult, especially if he disables you first with his weapon..
However, there are ways to beat them and it's just through practice. Doldren, in my opinion will take out all of them incredibly easy, especially with CSC card equipped. With his machine gun equipped, you can soften them up easily for a CQC kill. Shae, with her last rare weapon (Sa'Dhu?) can one shot an enemy, especially with weapon bonus damage cards equipped.
I don't play Harec much, but again, finding a good spot to snipe can destroy the enemy, especially with a good weapon equipped that does one hit kills.
I haven't played Iune yet so can't speak for her.
You could save up for Loaht who, when he takes Beast form will slice through Antagonists like a hot knife through butter, one hitting them all. If he gets in amongst a pack of raiders, it's hasta la vista raiders.
You could get your own Rak, equip some Cqc and Pushka card bonuses and cause havoc.
You could buy a Hive, equip some CQC cards and utilize your special ability, increase pool health and drop some health stealing bombs on the floor (Grenade launcher 2nd weapon) of where you fight to quickly dispatch of the enemy.
The thing about this game is simply to play and understand your enemy.
Don't get me wrong though. There will be times you'll come up against a team you simply won't beat, that is who'll run around as a team and take you out if you come in close to attack. That is unless you're Loaht, who loves teams like this.
Personally, I like using Shae. I like to Bewitch them and then snipe them, killing them in one shot, especially with her first weapon. Even better, use her Sa'Dhu weapon, a CQC card and the card that removes 75% of pressure after a CQC kill (100% with Aleph superboost) and you can kill incredibly quickly. A burst of 6 shots from this weapon is a kill on most and if not, will drop them into wounded for an easy finish.
Again though, it depends on the team. If you're up against a team with two Antagonist killers, or even a good one (Doldren) then you're going to have a really hard time surviving, especially when all one of them does is simply stalk you throughout, waiting for you to appear and then on you. It's just the way it is unfortunately.
