edited September 2014 in PvP Gameplay
Went in cap n hold today
tacs on sci ships with fbp
scis on sci ships with fbp
escorts with fbp didn't care bout captain lol
tacs on a2b gal-x with fbp
even stupid bop "vapers" had fbp

is game so dead people just know how to fbp lol
seems im the only one whose escort relies on weapons to do damage, whose fleet patrol isnt a2b and whose sci isnt fbp full partigens spam

really have all good pvpers left this game

game is dead rip

    ^^ bugship is mad cant use FBP





    srsly though its broken, Tac should not buff partgens, that would only fix about half of whats wrong but it would be something

    Funny story, when I first broke into pvp I faced the best pvper I'm my fleet for top pats on the backs. At first I crushed her, but she said she needed a minute to put her "pvp" build on.

    Ya, she used fbp against me and I had no idea what it was. All I knew it was blue balls that were killing me and when I asked what or was she would say "girl power."

    I know better now and how using fbp in 1v1 is rather bs and to not say what it was to a new pvper is even more bs...but I'll never forget what the blue balls of poor sportsmanship look like.

    In gio's part, I could've sworn I saw his vesta under the name of giovannis comet tail, using fbp. But it was awhile ago since I saw him, so I may have him confused with someone else

    There's usually so much stuff on the screen, I don't even see the feedback - just see the damage and switch targets.

    its gotten pretty old. the uptime on FBP is the problem, they cant be killed in the window between FBP being ready. there are to many abilities and clickies that prevent death totally in that time period. the only counter to these sci ships is more sci ships, shooting them isn't an actual option. and with so many running around with 400 particle these days, that 50% shield penn is total BS. you can kill yourself in the first fireing cycle of your cannon alpha.

    Or, why not:

    Tap them enough they activate FPB, wait it out, tap again for the second FPB, wait it out, tap for the third, wait it out, tap for fourth, sub-nuc as soon as they activate it, and get a vaper to vape the f**k out of your now FPBless opponent during the 10-15 second window.

    They don't expect the sub-nuc on attempt 4, and they've hopefully used their Sci team when you were tapping them and so can't clear it.

    My cruiser doesn't do enough spike damage to return feedback on a level I can't just regenerate from- so I just laugh when an enemy pops feedback and keep firing.

    I see what you did there.

    But in all truth, haven't we been down this FBP road multiple times before, even for Birds of Prey? Especially with the BOP, it being one of the only non standard sci ship that could use it at launch.

    400 in particle Gens? How are people rocking that? About the best I get these days is low to mid 300s.

    FBP MASTER RACE! Die you dps peasants... LOL
    The dress is gold and white. Over 70% people says so. When viewed from a certain screen angle it appears blue and black. The dress displayed on amazon is a blue and black dress, but it's not the same dress in the picture. If you're seeing blue & black you're slightly colored blind. A normal upright screen = white and gold.

    I go away from game for two months (vacation) and this is first thing I read about when I return, domination of sci ships (or maybe rather captains?) and FBP...
    Must be something wrong with my PvP build (control/support Fleet Recon Sci) as I'm not managing to do that well and have problems just staying alive against vapers, using FBP to ward them off...

    FAWtards tears are so good. God bless the FBP, no more fawtardism around

    Use a men's build, with cannons and/or BO and you won't have any problem with fbp. There is half dozen ways of counter a fbp pulse.

    I am a non-FBP dinosaur as well. It is tiresome to encounter FBP/TBR/Sci Crafting Trait spammers match after match after match.
