Daryl stuck it out. I was impressed. Wanted to send him a ggs message afterwards, but of course there was no way to do that in client
GGs Hashishin and that other good prestige player that joined us later. I have seen him TDM, but not in DM. I don't remember his name unfortunately.
That was lots of fun.
GG Hashishin, I finaly managed to get in first place in a match against you! Now I'm quite proude of myself
May have spent time at rank 50 before prestiging? You accumulate EXP that isn't transferred
It was bugged i think , i had been at level 50 for ages before the prestige tab appeared . haha , it could be that i was oblivious and completely missed it but i was aware it was an option and i remember looking for how to do it many times .
Oh and i did post a GG comment for you Alikcz , but it looks like i posted it on a random page , your challenge should you accept it , is to find the random post .

) .it was impossible not to notice, you got pretty brutal and my numbers at the end of the matches had gone much worse. You know no mercy ^^Did you notice my leap in performance once i unlocked the heat beams .
Great Games yesterday! It started for me with a Sunday dawn patrol at approx 6 am GMT Sunday. If you flew against me in a Arena Deathmatch thanks. Yeah I got spanked quite a few times but I gave as well as I got. Sorry I couldn't match up properly with some of you, my speednet.test results have me lagged out or just barely able to connect sometimes, good enough for open play but not good for Arena play. Its better if I just wait till later in the day. Which turned out to be from about 4 pm onwards till 10 pm CST. 5 glorious hours of pure laser blasting fun. I can't remember all of your names, but thanks.

Heat beams do seem pretty popular. I should try them sometime.
From your experience, what's the advantage of using them? Better DPS output?I like the heat beams because they tell me all the time I am hitting my target. The DPS does feel slightly higher, but obviously it drains the capacitor faster, but usually you can kill someone by the time the capacitor is dry. One thing I think they should do is lower the stock capacitor capacity so that if you want to run beams you need to use the weapons capacitor and you lose the extra boosts. That will make it so the beams aren't the default weapon of choice to kill people.Heat beams do seem pretty popular. I should try them sometime.
Heat beams for me:
- seem marginally lower on raw DPS (I could be wrong), but still more dangerous overall
- 20% extra range is incredibly useful both for preventing escapes, getting some shots in early on in a fight, and on a good day, kill-stealing an entire furball before they've noticed you.
- get more kills rather than assists because you don't knock someone down to 3% and have someone else steal it before your lasers have recharged
- as dutchy2000 says, the beam mode means it's much easier to start and end firing optimally, rather than wasting a full burst. Easier in fixed mode, too.
- look far more intimidating to be on the receiving end of
- have a definite tendency to set your own ship on fire if your target doesn't dodge

I could not have put it better myself .
The moment you start to move off target the beams flick away . pretty big indication to try harder at staying on target .
When you have the weapon power up you can drain a fully pipped shield and take some hull before having to remove your pips from shields to start the recharge .
I am not sure on the dps . there are players out there that seem to be able to do the same to me but faster with the pulse laser . Not sure if they are using weapons build though or not .
On another subject , is there a hack out there that lets a player collect a power up even when you have it before them and yours is deffo still active , or is this a known bug , got some interesting footage the other day and it would also explain how these other players can melt shield and hull when i have the power up .

I can remember that I on occasions have collected the Weapon Power up again while I still had the weapon power up active, so it did respawn bevore it did run out. Not sure why, probably a bug, but I don't really know the rules as to when they are supposed to respawn.
