Worst thing about it is that it will detect a teammate behind you and blow up. Which doesn't make any sense is it would detect you every time you fired if that were the case. Detection should be a cone in front of it not a 360 degree omnifield.
My favorite part is that when i made the argument FOR the AT mines, so many used the "they just tEaM kILl" like you couldnt just use your eyes. Now we have the automatic team wipe launcher instead. As a famous clown once said, You GET WHAT YOU DESERVE!
the weapon is bugged. if it wasn't the mines would 100% be a bigger team killer. theres no reason to assume the at mines wouldnt be bugged in some way too. is this you first time saying i told you so because usually people who are like that are assholes not something to make a habit of doing and this right here is definitely not the time to be saying it, not only because of what i just said but also there was no way most people knew which planets needed to be liberated for AT mines. only social media spelled it out what we would get and what planet gives it. for the minority who did use social media in some shape or form not many if that percent even knew which planet needed to be liberated first to get to AT mines. the ice planet was in the same sector as both planets on mo, everyone went to that planet regardless because it seemed like it would open up both. i only knew ahead of if time the fire tornado planet needed to be liberated in ANOTHER sector because i saw someone on Reddit say they don't want to do fire tornados so they dont care about at mines anymore. if it wasn't for that comment i would have thought the ice planet unlocked both as well. and again most wouldn't even know what stratgem was unlocked on penta either, just doing the MO and hope for the best. so what did we "deserve" exactly? a non functional weapon? In some bizarre world we get the AT mines first then other people would say the same thing about we should have gotten the airburst first, for what ever reason probably cause its biggy or doesn't kill many things well. what a strange thing to feel validated over given what we know.and you are definitely not the only one saying this same 🤡 idea
will make more sense with minimum arming distance. even real 40mm grenades use it, so I'd imagine a portable cluster bomb would benefit from it unless there were too many Helldivers, and this is an in-universe dystopian reaping
Holding the trigger and releasing is a good idea for fixing the prox issue, but what about holding the reload and selecting a distance like you would a fire rate?
Hey man, you have visibility, can you talk about the Ship Module - Rapid launch System " Emplacement stratagems are deployed instantly " ? This thing is not working as well
I dont like to bring other games but destiny 2 has a weapon that could benefit this one, deathbringer allows you to release the button to decide when it detonates and scatters secondly the fragments could do a slight track insuring that hit enemies instead of nothing. still i would rather use what you mention granade launcher is fantastic and more flexible. makes you wonder if the anti tank mines are better lol.
I was just thinking a manual release for the airburst would fix this weapon, but I don't think the devs will go for that since they go pretty hard to make the weapons behave realistically and I don't think there are any airburst weapons that don't operate on proximity or timed fuses
It also has Truth, which is also a proximity detonated rocket launcher but it does not detect yourself or your team or ammo boxes or geometry or random bs as targets. And it works just fine, without the need to add manual detonation Let's fix the root of the problem, not the symptoms
Now after its fix I can say it is amazing against bugs. I would never bring it to bots but against bugs it has been working wonders for me for taking out swarms of smaller targets and sometimes even being able to kill chargers. The kit I run for T9 bugs has been the Airburst, Orbital Airburst, Eagle Cluster and the 500KG now of you can swap out the 500kg and the eagle cluster however I will say throwing the Orbital and the Cluster on multiple breaches saves you from getting swarmed, adding on a few airburst rockets its very nice. The 500kgs are ofc for the titans incase you find youself alone or run alone like myself across the map.
They already anounced that they know it is buged and it will be fdixed soon... I guess it will be like with the dominator. Hot garbage at first, but top tier after adjustment
This thing seems like the prototype version made back in the late 70's - 80's new cluster munitions. from my experience first type was not that good it was vehicle mounted short lived the RPG like version was teseted never saw real use or atleast I never seen it used. Fast forward to the 90's the other was basically the AMR or Eruptor like weapon that actually air burst design to take out multiple vehicles/convoys with optional to take out heavy armor. Fast forward to the early 2000's this model serving the same purpose but in the size of a compact assault rifle holding multiple rounds super fast reload and more controllable. This is were my experience drops off. I don't remember it being ineffective but I do remember being impractical at the start. I don't know what the devs are doing with this air burst weapon.
It really feels like your titles and intros have become contrarian and negative here. I originally subscribed to your original channel and followed you here because of your positivity and energy in the lore and later streams. It was honestly very refreshing to hear in the destiny community since it is so meta dependent and overall toxic towards other options.
What should he do? Lie to you by telling you the weapon is actually functional? Sometimes "possitivity" just doesn't mix with reality. If you still wanna force it, then it becomes a delusion, denial, avoidance, a coping mechanism
I have had this comment in the past and it is an interesting discussion. A lot of people said my main channel was positive, but the truth was, I just was never critical of bungie. I had plenty of criticism of destiny and bungie, just didn't make videos about them because didn't want to upset people. As soon as I started giving my opinion about destiny I found people started saying "you are so negative now". I wasnt intentionally being negative, I was just being honest. Personally, I found being overly positive or overhyping something to get more views is more toxic and manipulate. Destiny has a big problem with saying that to get a click. I am a pretty critical person by nature, and with this channel, I am just being honest. Way more honest than i ever was with destiny.
i would focus on the context of his title. idk if you go on Reddit much (i don't blame you if you don't) but you should definitely see it in the RU-vid comments, the real toxic people are the ones shaming others for not liking the weapon, something players can't make work because of a bug (literally documented by the devs btw) causing it to blow up prematurely. and let me tell you, even though you'll see people say dying is fun in this game, most people get really titled when they die out of their control. There's no counter measurement to prevent that emotion besides not playing in the first place. but it shouldn't be happening in the first place. the weapon shouldn't blow up cause it detected a tree next to you. you shouldn't have to be ridiculed online by gatekeepers telling you the weapon isnt the problem YOU'RE the problem. (spoiler its the weapon thats the problem) this is abusive and a form of cyber bullying. please understand thinking this yt title is toxic but not the thousands of players upvoting a post essentially insulting people for not liking a weapon "cause they aren't using it right" even though they could just admit its tough to use and understand is not healthy! Many people don't have friends irl and gravitate towards communities like this and getting treated like dirt for not liking a weapon is horrible. being told that its not you thats the problem can take a huge burden off by validating them. this video title does more helpful things for the community than you think. and whats really funny is these people NEVER address that the devs said its bugged they just gloss over that fact and still act like this. again im only talking about people who try to insult others for bringing up its flaws even in rants and rage.(they are mad and want to vent, irl people wouldn't understand them so they go online and say it sucks, this is not being toxic) no excuses for this kind of glazing. there is a difference between people who only complain and people calling out mistakes by devs they cannot be looked at as the same group. the omega negative and omega positive groups on the other hand should be the ones grouped together ironic as that sounds.
Even if they "fix" this weapon, I can't see not just taking eagle cluster and saving both support AND backpack slots. You get 5 of them before a relatively short rearm period. It is a completely useless weapon 😂
*uses title to make fun of people who try to help you out by telling you youre using it wrong, then proceeds to use it wrong from 10 minutes while trying to prove a point* its an air burst rocket not an rpg. Stop using it like its an rpg and use it like its oh idk...as if it burst in the air? Couple clips were pretty decent though wasnt all bad. Still liked the video.
there's a big difference between the people who are trying to help people online use it correctly and how I've seen the overwhelming majority of people act on social media. "you're just using it wrong" has never been used as a helpful start to a reply but an insult for everyone to circle jerk each other I have yet to see a rational and level headed response on either RU-vid or reddit about how to use the aurburst when someone is complaining about it . just implying the player is stupid its just been pure toxic gatekeeping all on the premise that it's working as intended which guess what l? it's not and it's why people are frustrated with it in the first place! as the devs have said so themselves, yet people insist in the most emotionally charged way that everyone unhappy with it is an entitled player who cant wrap their heads around this genius weapon even tho the weapon itself actually will reward everyone who uses it the way people like you are saying its not supposed to be used once its fixed this week. There seems to be a very large lack of emotional intelligence for those in the community to comprehend that people getting team wiped by others, self blown up even tho aiming in the air are respectfully going to be annoyed after their first mission. all because it's bugged not because they are using it wrong. but nah they are just stupid how dare they use a weapon that looks like a rpg like an rpg on their first mission. but no lets not be understanding lets jump the gun and call them names and act like we're better than everyone else people are still defending the spear lock on jank and dot damage bug as people being entitled even tho its been a month since the devs said its not working as intended, do you want to be one of those people cause thats how its coming off right now. it'll get fixed and everyone will change their tune, no need to defend something that has no feelings, airburst is just a few strings of code and polygons.
@petercottantail7850 sometimes you don't have to sugar coat things. You just have to tell it like it is. First ask yourself. "What kind of weapon am I using?" Then ask how to use it properly. You're using a cluster bomb not an rpg. Shoot it as if you expect it to blow up like a cluster bomb. Then adjust the aim as you use it. Over time you automatically know where to aim. Yes it had problems with blowing up prematurely sometimes, but each time I noticed it's because I shot it and didn't see a tree or a team mate. All user error. I should've adjusted my aim to ensure I didn't Hit said tree or team mate. If you wish to belive it or not, it's literally a skull issue. It's not cod you can't just copy a no recoil build and be good for a year. It's 2024 most people are delusional or refuse to belive reality and choose to belive what they want to be. So I must speak directly to get my point across. I don't care about anyone's feelings, it's your job to control your feelings not mine. It's like if you have a job in a kitchen and you're new. You won't know how to do everything and that's ok, but if your performance is bad because you're new that would be called a skill issue. Because you don't have that skill yet. There's two kinds of people though. First will blame everyone else for being better and making them feel like less until they quit or get fired due to lack of skill. Or they get better and run circles around everyone. That sir is the difference between skill issue and crying about it and not bettering yourself.
