i've had that happen to me so much that i have recently been beating them when it happens, unless of course you have some really good aaylas and some really bad luck.DarthSolous wrote:But have you ever played MP hero assault?

Jango and Boba can get away from them the fastest, I find, because of their jetpacks. Once you're at a safe distance, you can use missles and blasters to finish 'em off.

Re: What Unit Class You Think Is The Most Annoying To kill?
Exactly. That's why when I play hero assault and I'm on the villian side I only play as jango, because boba's bullets fly too slowly and his fire similarly to a semi auto sniper rifle with a big clipDarthSolous wrote:Jango and Boba can get away from them the fastest, I find, because of their jetpacks.

I used to play some LAN games with some friends, and one of them always played one of the Fett's, and I frequently played Aayla, and Force Pull easily negates jetpacks.
As heroes go...
Human Controlled: Maul, I guess. or Aayla
AI for difficulty as a melee player: Grievous
AI for being annoyingly easy: Sidious, Dooku

Re: What Unit Class You Think Is The Most Annoying To kill?
Not true. I have killed many an Aayla using my aforementioned strategy. Your friend probably just wasn't as good at using Jango as you were at using Aayla.kinetosimpetus wrote:I used to play some LAN games with some friends, and one of them always played one of the Fett's, and I frequently played Aayla, and Force Pull easily negates jetpacks
Yup, you can just shoot them or do a few saber throws, while they just sit there and shoot force lightning at nothing.kinetosimpetus wrote:AI for being annoyingly easy: Sidious, Dooku

Re: What Unit Class You Think Is The Most Annoying To kill?
I'm sure you do kill them, but don't many online players basically ignore the fact that Jedi have force powers (and/or follow admin imposed rules not to use them) because they consider them cheap? I mean, it seems even Pandemic figured they were cheap, because they set up AI such that they will never use push, pull, or choke, and if a modder activates them on AI, they are excessively annoying if otherwise left stock. If AI could push stock, they would be force noobs, and you'd spend 95% of your playtime being tossed through the air.
Because I'm not super competitive, and because of lag, I almost never play online, and never got into the habit of "no force" or "let ups", so perhaps Offline, LAN, and Online experiences may vary for one person, or between people, but in my experience, pull IS very effective at incapacitating fleeing Mandalorians.

Re: What Unit Class You Think Is The Most Annoying To kill?
Yeah, I guess it all depends on the skill of the players...and the number of Aaylas pulling a person.kinetosimpetus wrote:I'm sure you do kill them, but don't many online players basically ignore the fact that Jedi have force powers (and/or follow admin imposed rules not to use them) because they consider them cheap?

*remembers time when I first started playing mp and I got pulled back & forth between two Aaylas who both wanted to kill me*

Re: What Unit Class You Think Is The Most Annoying To kill?
I just played stock hero assault (offline), because it feels like i haven't in years, lol. I'd actually say none (as played by AI) stood out as specifically more annoying to kill using stock Aayla, Han, Jango, or Grievous, although Sidous and Dooku were still exceptionally easy at times.
And actually gave me an idea to try out in my mod...

Re: What Unit Class You Think Is The Most Annoying To kill?
thats not really how online usually works at all. most people i find online except a few good friends of mine never let up, and if force isn't disabled on a server by mod people will use it almost all the time, if it is disabled then usually people still try to use the powers but they are ineffective, other than visual annoyance.kinetosimpetus wrote:I'm sure you do kill them, but don't many online players basically ignore the fact that Jedi have force powers (and/or follow admin imposed rules not to use them) because they consider them cheap?

odd that no matter what hero assault game i'm in i almost never use force and if i do its just saber throw, or maybe a revenge choke on the guy who pulled and pushed me for 20 minutes...

It's pretty much how it works in SWGO's servers...Dakota wrote:thats not really how online usually works at all. most people i find online except a few good friends of mine never let up, and if force isn't disabled on a server by mod people will use it almost all the time, if it is disabled then usually people still try to use the powers but they are ineffective, other than visual annoyance.

Re: What Unit Class You Think Is The Most Annoying To kill?
Again, I don't spend all day playing every single server out there. The ones I played on occasionally, made a big fuss about force spamming and letting up. Stop telling me I'm completely wrong because we had differing experiences.

Re: What Unit Class You Think Is The Most Annoying To kill?
i don't mean to offend you in any way, its just that i have played on almost every hero assault server at one point over the years. People do always make a big fuss over the things, its just in my experience (and after admining a few servers) i've just found how many people there are that just don't listen... and then theres swgo hero assault...kinetosimpetus wrote:Again, I don't spend all day playing every single server out there.

Well it kind of sounds that way when, two times in a row, I say something based on my own admittedly limited experience, which in that experience is absolutely true, but then someone responds saying, nope, that's completely false. It makes me feel like you guys think I'm lying.

I didn't mean to offend you either. However, like Dakota said, I was merely stating what I found to be true from my many experiences on the Hero Assault servers.kinetosimpetus wrote:Well it kind of sounds that way when, two times in a row, I say something based on my own admittedly limited experience, which in that experience is absolutely true, but then someone responds saying, nope, that's completely false.
