Dear ReaKKtor,

We, the undersigned think the new evolution update is great, one big downside of it we find to be the reloading times of regular weapons, which totally destroyed pvp as how we used to know and love it, and we'd much much rather see it back to the old way of reloading, please change this fast, and avoid people being unable to enjoy the game cause of this!

Yep if it stays like this i wont be reactivating my pe / tank.

Sorry i dont want to chat while fighting o_O
I dont understand why you fixed it in the first place. I never saw anyone complaining about it or saying that its unfair / imba...

/e Also imo dont fix it like increasing the ammo clips. Thats just gonna unbalance it even more... and what we need is FAST fights without much breaks :p
Where you cant stop and chat to your opponent in the middle of the fight... like in other games :p

In corellation to monks this doesn't seem to work out well anyway.

Reload times need to be put to what they always were, although it'd be good if people couldn't exploit the reloading time to do other stuff.

Comie
02-12-05, 18:06
i like it the way it is, give you more feel and stuff... the only way it is broken is due to the effects of monks (both apu and ppu).

I also like how you cant do much else while reloading... sort monks out, keep the reload!

I am totaly against the silly reload, i've mentioned my reasons.
As long as it's in i'm gonna level up my apu some more, so i'll be able to do opwars, as pes are a total joke at them now.

i dun mind the reload time as such just the fact you can't do fuck else while reloading.. i'm used to reload then switch to hacktool / stealth / buff whatever.. whenever i put my weapon away i'm used to reloading.. but with the you can't do shit while reloading i got killed so many times already.

make it like any other game then.. like css i play to now.. when you reload but switch weapon while its reloading it doesn't reload.. that way you can still switch and don't get the upper hand on a instand reload.

Alternately you decrease monk damage over time and kill two bugs with one stone - ie monks cease to have the higher random cap for the spells and only average and lower are in use, while the rest of their "constant" damage spells are reduced a touch.

The rest of the classes live longer in a skirmish, while the monks don't suffer all too much from the rest of the classes with the continous fire. (PPU's exempt from this fix naturally, they need a whole other type of nerf)

Or something along those lines

A lot of people are claiming its REALISTIC!!111 .. well has anyone ever used a real fucking assault rifle or pistol ? I have and it takes me 2.5 seconds to put a new mag of 5.56mm to an SA80 british army rifle and make ready, thats 1 fresh mag and 1 round ready in the chamber. Thats without rushing it, in combat I think I would do it within 1 second, now bigger weapons such as rocket launchers need time to prepare, so those I could agree with but not pistols and rifles and other primary weapons. :mad:

I just tried in NC with two rifles, and it took me less than 6 seconds using a stopwatch between the last shot (before reloading) and the next mag first shot (after reloading is done).

Right, now about those 2.5 seconds, I'd like you to do the same while running like a rabbit with a guy scratching your face using a 30 centimeters handclaw... not to mention you probably omitted the time that you need to pickup the stuff from your belt/handbag/pocket before actually putting it into. But I will trust in you there to make a conclusion :

So by one the supposed ten seconds to reload (see bugs gunny thread) are LIES since you obviously need half that time IG to reload (and most of you should better test it themselves IG before trusting in rumours), and by two Lil T have shown us that the new reload time is pretty realistic according to the RL number she just gave to us :cool:

It is simple you push the magazine inside the conveniently sized hole and it clicks, done finnished reloaded in 1 seconds and yes its pretty easy to do this running :rolleyes:

Then it is only 6 secs .. so what? It feels like 10 secs imo and its more than enough to decide every even fight in favor of an apu. And stop comparing this game to RL O_o

also, melee weapons need some serious loving !! so much could be done with some of them :(

Well I've posted 10 times my opinion on the subject : "this modification unbalances things in the advantage of monks". Which doesn't mean that reload time need to be brought back to what it used to be before EVO, afaik. MONKS need a fix now, I even opened a thread at once suggesting to simply remove Psi Boosters, so I'm afraid you're not preaching at the right guy.

And I haven't played Apu for ages, because it's probably the less fun class to play in this game, except for people only taking pleasure from (easy) killing.

Yeah well sorry then i didnt see it. I dont agree with the monk-nerf solution tho. Its not just the fact that monks have such an advantage now. Its also that pvp got alot slower with it. NC always had fast pvp and i loved it for that... now playing a tank is more "turret-like" than ever before...

So why make monks slow too if you could just "unnerf" gun users and get the same balance?

If you want you can keep the good looking animations in... maybe they could stop once you start shooting or something so people that like to see it while pvm etc could see it while others who pvp can get back to what they are used to since 3-4 years...

That's the way I got killed too yesterday, though I'm a hc pe and I have access to stealth.

I think Zeltarg suggested a simple solution to this problem : KK could just fix it (without changing the reloading delays) so as you're still able to cancel the reloading when things are getting bad.

Maybe this is the problem for many people, especially hc tanks/pe

BlackDove
03-12-05, 00:20
The problem is simple here, and that is the damage dealt over time. It needs to either decrease for monks or increase for the rest of the classes.

I won't bother rehashing all the old, *old* problems with monkehs compared to any other class - some are subtle, some are punch-in-the-face obvious - we all know them inside out.

KK seems to have a massive blindspot in this regard though.

This is just another weight on the already out of whack monkeh-vs-anyone else scale.

First off sorry, didn't read any replies to this thread. (to drunk to do so.) But, I feel reload times are about the same. However, I haven't really gotten into high end PvP yet so I am not really sure how the reload times would effect such an event. Just my 2 cents don't hang me because of my opinions.

IMHO (In my humble opinion) I think peopel just take things way to seriously. C'mon it's just a game. You can't expect heaven from it... But, you can expect hell. If it's hell to you. You just have to deal with it. There is nothing you can do about it, except complain. However, what good would that really do? IMHO (In my humble opinion) people who cry about changes are the ones who usually ruin a game. Are you one of those people?

In my opinion the glove shouldnt be in game anyway, monks in NC1 functioned perfectly without it, and were still bordering on overpowered by the end (by bordering i mean they were overpowered, but the fact not many people whored them, and the spirit mod, eased this a little).

The glove would have made PEs better in NC2 for sure, if the weapon formulas werent ridiculous.

In my opinion KK did the most idiotic thing ever with the reload times.
They opened pandoras box now with monk imballance.
If they want to fix this the fast way, they should restore the reloads to prepatch and then the comunity can still be hushed again.
If they realty want to keep it in, they have to completely reballance mobs, monks, melee tanks, drones, etc.....
When they decide to go with the second option i'll just find myself another game to play while they screw about for 6 months and make a lot of people quit.

I realy enjoy their timing with this whole deal. People return to neocron and what do they see? Another improvement in monk-o-cron.
Do they realy think this will make people stay? Of all the people i know from nc1 that came to check it out, not too many are happy with what they saw.

And the funniest thing about the whole deal is they can't even put out an official response to the whole reload thing. Most likely they are discussing the whole matter and contemplating on how many people will quit or not return when they keep their beloved reload time in.

This sounds like a simple solution to the problem to me. Personaly i have'nt tryed pvp since Evo came out. But i dont mind the reload times. however the switch problem during reload should be changed to something like cs. you switch weapon but dont reload.

this is my 2 cents worth on this subject..

i sincerely doubt anything will change though (knowing KK priorities) - and such nerf will have tremendous effects on the gameplay in a long run, as no one except a sniper spy maybe will ever get a chance against a monk in a fight. So *everyone* will soon have a monk because the difference is simply too big for anyone to be able to counter it - its only a matter of time i'm afraid. People will convert or die (leave the game) - thats the evolution...

I think KKs respone will be like things theyve done in the past. The community moan about it for about a month (melee being boosted, poison being boosted) then adapt to it.

However, this change is unadaptable. Monks, alreayd being overpowered, now have clear reign over pvp, solo or otherwise.

I know KK sometimes listen to the community, sometimes dont, but on this issue

Ive got some mixed feelings about how weapons are treated right now for reloads. Being a HC guy myself, I see how the reload times act more realistic, And I appreciate that. Im the kinda person who likes something thats a bit more believable. And honestly, trying to do 2 or three things at once like reloading, hacking, and stealthing in a 4-5 second span seems just stupid, sorry to offend anyone.

But I will aggree. Monks have a huge advantage now with this reload thing going here. ONE such idea to interduce to monks COULD be something along the lines of "concentration" thinking along the lines that after a certain ammount of concecutive uses of the spell or spells, the user could start to slow down in cast time or would get "head aches" (not the kind the wierd boyz get in WH40k, but something a little less "leathal)

though, I will agree with the pistol comment about how someone can reload a clip in about 2-3 seconds for a pistol, rifles and above still take time to reload.

Ill post more, im still a little scatter brained at the minute.

I believe the word from Nid was he'd try to get something.

The only thing pertaining to reloads i'd like to see worked on is the problem i get with an autoreload when my stamina hits 0, drain from firing should maybe be lessened? or have it removed entirely. Just want to know who else can't finish a PvP session because the tank reloads at the crucial point.

Tanks Can't run, fire and take damage for any period of time. When you reload, you're just a slower target, that will still lose stamina from trying to dance. Catch 22.

12-12-05, 14:16
Ok, i'm gonna ruffle a few feathers here.

Before i get flamed to within an inch of my life, i DO play a reloading weapon class (pistol PE). I don't play my monk that often nowadays.

I learned to adapt to the situation. You know how you're all supposed to keep an eye one those numbers in the lower right of your screen during a fight? Yes, your health, stamina and PSI. Well, if your biggest concern is not being able to heal mid fight - and some have said that ability is a little silly anyway - then all you have to do is keep your eye on another number; your remaining ammo. Really want to heal during a reload? Switch to heal when your ammo is down to 2 (or whatever your smallest unit shot size is), cast heal, then switch back to fire again and reload WHILE THE HEAL IS WORKING ON YOU. Simple.

As for those who complain about not being able to stealth quickly enough, well who likes a stealth whore? Yes, i know pots and kettles and all that; i love my stealth, but i do find it frustrating when i get a PE / spy to low health then *poof* he's gone. Want to stealth? Simply time it better or use it earlier. Does dragging fresh ammo onto your gun work in stealth? Never tried, but it's a suggestion.

Guys and gals, this is EVOLUTION 2.1 For millennia, mankind has evolved by adapting to their changing surroundings. This is just another little change we have to evolve to adapt to. Just look at the time when PEs lost their stealth altogether. We scraped by somehow.


The only thing pertaining to reloads i'd like to see worked on is the problem i get with an autoreload when my stamina hits 0Lowtech pistol / rifle / cannon users suffer the high / higher / highest stamina drain of any class during fire. That is not new. Like i have said above, its just another meter you have to keep an eye on, and the best PvPers who specialise in these weapons just carry stam boosters in their quickbelt and make sure they never reload due to stamina drain during a fight. Again, just watch that ammo clip and heal when it's at 4.

Is this solution to your liking? I wonder. Have you checked all ballance issues that apply here? Even if you did, is it nice to watch aamo counter drop for you at the same time while trying to aim? it helps gameplay?
I think not.
Allow me to illuminate yet another side to this story: lets take as an example guns that fire lots of ammo burst and have small ammo clips, like the FL/CS, which are (for me) the most skilled weapons ingame atm. for these guns you need a new ammo clip every 5 shots fired. Then its a reload procedure of another 5-6 secs right? right.
what you claim you doing is : you take this 5 shots gun, turn it into a 4shot (means a reduction of20% !!!!) then apply heal or whatever, then reload for 6 secs (means yet another 25% or what? of a reduction !!!) and you are happy with it? and you dont sign???

Not really, there'd be more issues arising from that, and it still wouldn't really fix the core of the problem. That is, monks got boosted. Larger clip sizes means someone with a capped slasher could most likely kill someone in one clip. Same goes for CS to a certain extent. Weapons that are meant to have a comparitively smaller clip size because they are more powerful.

jini
12-12-05, 16:53
it's not a fix, simply because this thing, leaves you exposed fo those 5-6 secs of time. A lot can be done during this time. Some can remember some patches ago ppus could rezz in 6secs. this thing leaves PEs and Spies in the dust while boosts monks/melees/droners accordingly

12-12-05, 17:52
imho, the only reason why the reload time was upped was because the animations were longer than expected. The people working on the animations probably made them too long or something and KK went "ok lol its ok we'll just time the reload to the animation and everything will b OKK (lol two k)" I can not honestly think that they did this on purpose. If they want to speed up the reload time, they're going to unsync every animation of evo, and they're going to look completely shit, and that's bad for business. We're screwed.

Next year we'll have "EVOLUTION 2.2, RELOAD!"

tbh2, the reload time was fine. Everything was working well since evo. Enjoy your cutey animations, reloaders, I'm rolling a monk until EVO RELOAD comes out. ;) See you all later. Been pked too many times on my tank to possibly stand it any longer. The outcome of all of this is that monk-o-cron will be reborn!

That's true, but you have to admit... Who's heard of a gatling gun that could do 4 shot bursts only 5 times a chain?

You get a good long burst from a gatling - my speedie (Wub wub!) gives consistent 45's against grimmies for 48 shots over around about 6 or 7 seconds.

45*48 = 2160 a clip against a /120 - make that a third of the damage IIRC = 720

Factor resists against the pierce (Pretty sure it's pierce - doesnt matter anyway.) still leaves you a good chunky 3/400 a clip. And that's unmodded.

Take note that the math is horribly skewed by comparing it against a grimmy! But it gives a good indication.

Giving it a bigger clip would mean the same thing as giving a dissy or a slasher a ****************** clip - trouble :p

Giving it a bigger clip would mean the same thing as giving a dissy or a slasher a ****************** clip - trouble :p

Sorry guys, today's been a bit mad for me and I've not been able to follow up the reload issue as yet (I've sent a message on but it's a bit late now). It's right at the top of my short-term priority list though.

Right, now to edit this thread...

Wow to acutally have the reload times back!

p.s. it might be a GOOD idea to fix this before the free time ends for the peeps visiting. If they knew it was fixed while they were still in game then they would know that KK isnt dinking with them to pay for a month just to see what happens ;)

i liked it better when you could mouse wheel it after a shot..that and if your gun runs out of ammo it still sits for a couple seconds while it 'trys' to reload itself before you can do anything and sometimes it gets bugged as to you need to press the keyboard to change the slots instead of mousewheel.

Now - not so much. I'm curious as to why it was changed in the first place.

That's true, but you have to admit... Who's heard of a gatling gun that could do 4 shot bursts only 5 times a chain?
4 shot bursts only 5 times a chain? Wouldn't that mean that there are 20 bullets in the clip? I know the cannons and rifles have a clip of 48 so that's 12 bursts right?

I went hunting with my Healing Light and my Ray of God...

Reload is ridiculous now. Not only does it take longer, not only can you not drop the weapon during reload, but you can't see the screen during reload. Why the hell is my character blocking the screen during reload? What the hell is the point of reticle lock if I can't maintain it while reloading?

You might as well just put a banner on the game that says "Non-Monks are for masochistic players" and be done with it.

Sure, I'll live with it since I only PvM, but I can't see any PvPing players being happy that they're now worse off than TANKS when it comes to visibility while holding a weapon, nevermind the reload time or the no-drop issue.

And don't even get me started on the new weapon sounds. WTF? My Healing Light now sounds like an erector set and my Ray of God screams like a dying woman? Jesus Christ!

Like I said in chat, 10 out of 10 for weapon graphics, but minus several million for sound and reload.

You don't use a rifle, do you? Have you used one since patch?

What rifle user in real life or in an FPS sticks his weapon in the center of his screen/field-of-view to reload?

I want functionality, I don't want gimicks. I will gladly take the old rifle graphics and behavior over this new schmutz any day.

Wow, well we're all entitled to our own oppinion, personally I thought the old FL Model was one of the tackiest looking in first person, I liked the 3d person model but the First Person one looked like it had been assembled with Lego and had the stickers put on by some heavy handed toddler :P

The new Model KICKS ASS, it looks so detailed and makes you proud to use it.

For those few who still feel that reload is a good thing, let me remind you that it throws ALL ballancing done to weapons out the window.

Short example:

NERF = ((clipsize*(60/freq)+6) / ((clipsize*(60/freq)+2.5))

2.5 being the old reload, 6 being the new time

Xbow gets a 15% DOT (dammage over time) nerf
Slasher gets a whopping 39% nerf.

So yes, at the moment the xbow is a seriously overpowered weapon when fighting fellow reload aflicted fighters.

Do i like it?
HELL NO !!!!

Nidhogg, it's time you get in touch with KK, as anyone who knows basic math knows you guys have a BROKEN game right now.

I didn't mind it at first, but after about 20mins of fighting it came aparrent that it was causing a large problem in pvp.


/signed.

Never pvp'd with it cos i'm le'd atm, however reload times are laughable, APU will kill ya before you can load atm. If you want realistic reload times like this then double the damage to make that realistic, get rid of Monks, and PSI and lots of other un-realisic things like warbots etc, (Cos 50' robots wouldnt work trust me i know these things).

Thusly either change everything or accept this is fantasy and re-set the reload times.

Besides it's unfair to nurf everyone accept monks!

I highly doubt anyone that plays Neocron would play EITHER of those shit games for more than a month after playing Neo.

and tbh the reload times are kinda crap, but you just gotta choose ur weps right. Some of them have a slightly faster reload than others.

Cmon guys, it can't be that hard?
Either it's a mistake that passed by the extensive testing performed on the patch, or it's a thing that's put in deliberately as part of a massive reballancing of monks, all reload weapon dammages based on reload times and clipsize and a total mobreballancing.
