@bellic (Ringo__Starr aka mges on an alt to steal lower level players points)
is it not enough that we make laugh at you in mumble for your horrible arguments?
you've literally only played scout, and you whenever you play a different class, it is an offclass or a ugc steel match in which you play soldier (and your rocket launcher is named making fun of yourself for playing such a 'silly' class)
I have played every class, and although it is much easier to hit splash than hitscan, soldier cannot dodge nearly as much as a scout can, but the scouts dodging abilities are dependent on the terrain making this matchup have no definite outcome

please let this thread die, it's been made before (at least on natf2), most of the higher level players say the same thing and it ends up being a massive flame thread between lower level players who think their class is the bomb

Depends on the skill of the player, not the class they're playing.

at lower skill levels it's easier for soldiers to outplay scouts

at middle skill levels it's easier for scouts to outplay soldiers

at top skill level they're essentially even

at any rate if they perform equally well at the same exact skill level then they're gonna come out even

this applies to the "I'm gonna kill you" matchup though, not whether one is more or less annoying than the other or what tactical advantages they have over the other or how the balance works in 6s

As a roamer, I'm obligated to say my class is shit and that's why I get pooped on.

There isn't an answer to this as outlined previously.

But man... when you get that "triple jump" going - jump, surf, jump - scout can feel pretty invincible.

A lot of the time the scout will get the kill simply because his weapon fires shots faster. If it takes two shots minimum for either class to take down the other, doesn't the scout have advantage simply because he (in a vacuum) always gets the first opportunity to secure the kill?

In a limited 1v1 arena, mge type scenario, i feel like it's a soldier's fight to lose. If the soldier plays perfectly and hits every shot they will win every time. Scout v soldier is about forcing the soldier to fuck up and not hit their shots while also consistently hitting your own. Fortunately scout has enough tools to do that so that it ends up being more about skill and who can read their opponent better.

theoretically if both people have perfect aim, shotgun soldier 200hp vs 125 shotgun

soldier wins 100% of the time

If soldier hits first rocket for any splash he should win.. If scout dodges first rocket he should win. Online vs lan huge difference... Too many factors... Thread dumb
