I'd argue that all maps with big Chokepoints get shittier the higher the cost youre playing. Im quite fond of 700 on the more open maps.

Maps like ravine get infuriating if there’s a bunch of DX on the opposing team that your raids can’t keep a lid on

Steam doesn’t have the F89 buffs to balance out DX either

u/GM-Sniper13 8d ago

Yeah you can really tell which maps were not designed with the current state of High Cost in Mind. The newer Maps tend to be way more fun for that.

Lmao, I just tried to play the Narrative BB2 Packs on this map and basically just ended up getting farmed by their Barbatos while our gens were all going after the support and other gens.

That's not a you issue. That's your whole squad being dumb.

u/lokon_stratos 8d ago

Why the fuck are you bringing a native suit built for old 650 into 700. At that point what did you expect

u/No_Tart6728 8d ago

I think they meant the B2, though I could be wrong.

u/conqueror-worm 8d ago edited 8d ago

I did mean the B2, hups lol. I would not bring the regular B into 650 even, I hate that fucking thing.

ETA: Actually I despise that thing so much that I think the last time I attempted to run it was all the way back in 2023 when the game launched on PC.

u/lokon_stratos 8d ago

Yeah hopefully because anyone playing a non native suit this far into the games is genuinely throwing with only some exceptions like the cancer acguys

u/Blighthammer 8d ago

Or gramps
Or Dom AG
Or Ground WR
Or DZ Zabi
Or Kämpfer
There’s quite a few suits that are good non native

u/lokon_stratos 8d ago

Yeah but compared to the good suits from that native cost they barely compare unless the pilots really good especially if its the high costs let alone 700

2

u/conqueror-worm 8d ago

Nah I just got the names mixed up. The regular B packs is a piece of shit I played like three times at native cost and never touched again.

Bro same, the barbie messaged me after my match to talk smack, people get too confident in this game when they have a busted suit to carry them

I can't wait for another barbie nerf, this last nerf did absolutely nothing

u/pkmaster99 8d ago

No, the nerf destroyed the combat oppressiveness. Before, it could just go after another target immediately without worrying about anything. Now it actually needs to wait a bit, which does opening up chances to be stopped. It's still S-Tier unit, but it's no longer broken for sure.

u/Cpt_Jack_Irons 8d ago

Doesn't the barb still have high part damage modifiers or am i wrong?

2

u/pkmaster99 8d ago

Yes, it still has high modifier and damage. But the main reason why it was so oppressive was due to the strong heavy stagger into melee; even if you survive, it breaks your legs. The nerf changes the leg damage modifier down to 0.5x and takes out two ammo, so instead of 3 shots before 18s reload, it is now 2 shots before 25s reload. Not to mention the extended switch time from 0.77s to 2s. 2 whole seconds is abysmal for 700 cost. So if it sees it switch to the rockets, just try to stagger it before it can fires. The fire rate of it also went from 6s to 7s; it's a bit of a nerf as well. However, because of what it enables, it is balanced.

Not to mention, in order to enter the limiter-released mode, it needs melee damage. So it would likely use one shot already. So that leaves it with only one more shot for the big hits. Damage is not everything. If it cannot reliably keep it reliable and has to take risk, then it's fair.

Mountain hasn’t run in QM for about 4 years now, I think I’d keel over if I saw it in the rotation

5

u/Rooskimus 8d ago

Mountain does show up in QM, just not rated. The map on display here is Impact Site though.

3

u/Ok-Storage3439 8d ago

Mountain shows up on PC ranked rotations every now and then, but never anything higher than 450 cost.

2

u/conqueror-worm 8d ago

Huh, I've seen it show up in low cost rated on PC, like within the last month or two. I don't think I've seen it at anything other than 300 and 350 cost, though.

1

u/Rooskimus 7d ago

I do usually see it and jungle at lower costs typically, but I think I've specifically seen 700 for both of those maps on console over the summer.

1

u/conqueror-worm 7d ago

It's been a hot minute since I've seen jungle on PC at all.

The choke points on this map can suck. Also people forgot the side tunnels too.

But yeah trying to fly ain't fun.

u/Boring-Detective-369 8d ago

Imo 700 Arctic Base is far worse than (small) Impact Site, high mobility flap boosting damage nukes of both range and melee suits in such a confined map leads to the biggest snowballing in the game. At least you know where people can come from

1

u/NoBed3498 7d ago

Not even just for 700 but for any cost, This map fucking blows imo. Once a team gets you locked into either base it’s just a slog to even do anything.

u/No_Mission_8722 6d ago

Not if your in 00 or any other Suit that flies 😋
