that is not proof. i am talking about showing me something where AL is legitimately broken and unfair. but you cant even do that, why? because you have no proof.
I guess I have nothing else better to do...
AL saves you from mistakes you made. Such as pushing the guy with rockets, or sitting in the middle of the battlefield and getting shot by everyone else on the other team. It delays your death for 5 seconds (enough for your shields to start recharging).
How is AL balanced, may I ask?
How is it balanced? quite simple actually. EVERYONE has the ability to use this AA. That is basically it. If you choose not to use it but someone else does, how exactly is that unfair to you? Both you and your enemy have the same option ALL GAME to use this AA, but you choose not to use it because you think its "cheap" or something along those lines.
sorry, but i cannot see how you can use that as a reasonable explanation for why you dont like this AA.
and AL doesnt always save you from mistakes. for example, i use AL whenever i see the enemy team whoring out the power weapons. i NEVER choose AL at the beginning. but when i see the enemy just camping or abusing power weapons, you are damn straight im going to put AL on. AL saves you from dying by people who depend solely on power weapons to get their easy kills. best part is they cry and complain afterward.
So just because everyone has the ability to pick the "nuke" ability in the beginning of the game makes it balanced? Going by your logic, that's how it works.
You just proved my point. You use AL to correct your mistakes. There's no such thing as "abusing" a power weapon. You either get it, or you don't. If you don't that's your fault, not the game's or anyone else's. You deserve to be punished for your mistakes. AL is that card that lets you go unpunished. That's why AL is bad. Just because everyone gets the option to pick it doesn't mean it's balanced.
how is not getting to the power weapons first a mistake? i hardly ever use power weapons unless i run out of ammo cuz i actually like to EARN my kills, not have them handed to me just cuz i have a weapon that does more damage than the one i start with.
and there IS such a thing as abusing power weapons cuz i have seen that MANY times where a team just sits on the power weapons spawn like the rocket launcher and that is ALL they use for the whole game. how exactly is that a mistake on MY part? just cuz i didnt get to it first? what poor reason that is.
AL is balanced because not only can EVERYONE use it, but it also helps people NOT get killed by people who use power weapons. it is basically the only REAL counter against the power weapons and that is why a lot of people get mad. they get mad because someone actually has enough common sense to use an armor ability that cancels out some power weapons. not to mention, these same people think that just because they have a power weapon, that makes them entitled to a kill every time they fire the weapon. WRONG.
