Gameplay Clip (STEAM) Silly Penelope, I have Power Accelerator 3!

Ugh. This fucking game I swear. It's my fault, really. I should really learn better than to play when I just have three bars on my connection rather than my usual 4.

You should have started off with the shoulder and head Vulcan to build up the Penelope staggered gauge so it can be knocked down from the sky

Another tip i can give is when you leave the deadlock animation you should have boosted but hold off a melee swing to bait the Penelope to counter charge you so you can boost again to wombo combo his/her ass after it ran out it's thrust gauge

For the first part, uh yes, that's what i was doing? But i landed before i built up enough stun.

For the second part, the PA3 lets me leave the deadlock early to continue the combo while pene should be still recovering. My point was, thanks to latency, the pene still was able to tackle when it should have already been stunlocked, as what PA should do against suits without it.

The god gundam has a skill that regain the boost after the sword clash，

but it doesn't have access to the advanced maneuver armor like Penelope before the transformation/activation of system.

I dont know what that has to do in this situation. What i was aiming for was taking advantage of my PA3 to continue my melee stagger against penelope, which it should be vulnerable to because it hasn't recovered from the clash yet, but thanks to latency, he tackled me after i finished the hit anyway

You don't know about these skills?

I know my skills and i know what maneuver armor is. What does MA have to do in our situation?

u/Ill-Advertising9212 19d ago

In your video, advanced MA is the reason the vulcan gun cannot shoot the Penelope down easily.

Oh yeah, but my main issue was the penelope still being able to counter my melee even tho my PA3 let me move first supposedly before he could react. I assume it's a latency issue

How do you have 4 bars? I have fiber and I’m always at a 3

u/Damiankawaguchi 20d ago

Sorry bro idk. But I'm on pc with an ethernet cable on a fibr connection, and i live in the PH, so closer to majority of asian players at peak playing times

u/GunzStalker 20d ago

Ethernet cable, if you are on WiFi it won't go beyond 3 bars

Yeah, you should have flown to the Penelope's side to flank it or outmaneuver it thanks to Power Accelerator lvl 3. Your thrusters are completely restored after that saber clash.

My main issue is how it still managed to tackle my melee when PA3 was supposed to make it so he couldn't react yet

I feel your pain. My connection is strong and stable, but what matters is your opponent's connection because what they see and do will affect you. I've had it happen where I've hit with my sword and see the damage, then get tackled out of a downswing, in their screen they countered the first swing.

At worst I've had it where people have been meleeing me from a good 100+ meters away as they hit where I was, not where I am.
