Not only that, if you spawn on a beacon that is contested, ie there's a red close by, they can kill you before you have a chance to react. On the flip side, if you try to rush a red beacon and a red spawns there, they get 2-3 seconds of invulnerability where neither weapons or abilities will affect them and they will wipe you out. The only success I've had in this situation is with Panther. They may walk through my Stasis Field without penalty, but if I put the field far enough away from the centre of the beacon, it'll at least block their shots. I think Aegis should be able to pull this off too, but with a risk of the spawning red overpowering the Aegis shield. Don't we blues get a couple seconds of invulnerability at spawn? |

We are supposed to but I never see it. I can't count the number of times I've spawned expecting the invulnerability only to get wiped. My personal theory is that "we" don't see it because of lag. Our avatar or mech shows up first but "we" don't get put into the mech until a second later. So, for the second that we are not in control, the red AI can't hurt our mech, but from our POV, as soon as we go into the mech, the invulnerability has worn off and we get toasted. Does that make sense?? lol, sorry, I just finished watching Pantheon and my mind is somewhat blown.

Like, what's the point? The AI are now just P2W players. Apparently the AI has access to EVERYTHING at R3. In the current context, geargub is downright diabolical. There's no bridging the A coin costed items at their base rank without dropping cash. There's no point in actually unlocking anything over buying endgame gear at R3 for $15 a piece. Instead of the odd player that dropped $100 before even changing their name, the AI just have every sale for free.  |
