    Cut the Rope Strategies... you scared bro?

    Hey guys!

    So the cut the rope is coming Tuesday, nothing big but some of you are getting worried for nothing.
    If you do have good loot and put it on the rope, protect it the same way you would if it were on your back!

    Nothing changed really!

    Put down shock turrets, bb8 mines, etc... just priotect it the same way you would if it were on your back... actually, this way made it EVEN easier,
    since you can now tell when someone is about to go rogue on you AND you can see them coming from a mile away with a scan after you place your loot on the rope.

    Guys, just stop being so scared about this rope cutting thing, how many times did you go extract and no one came... now if they do, simply place protection on the floor and aim at the head of whoever comes. As soon as they go rogue, they are dead.

    Another thing you can do is put it on the rope last seconds... just so many way to protect your loot.

    To me, as a rogue player, I don't see the difference from cutting it on the rope OR killing you for it. I will go rogue either way, but off your back is just easier.

    So to all you SOLO players or DZ worried players out there, keep in mind that nothing has really changed here.

    Peace!

    Simple strategy, put stuff on rope at the last seconds before departure.

    I'm a non-rogue type for the most part, but have to agree with everything you said. Cutting the line telegraphs intentions so massively that it will make things slightly more difficult from your perspective. Plus, I can see players being a lot more defensive at extraction.

    It changes things up, adds more chances for rogue reward, but does even the playing field somewhat.

    You guys have a bit of a myth about you tbh. Not every rogue (not even the majority I suspect) are max geared monsters. But the red skull makes ********s a-tigthten too often. You know it yourself, you're not bullet proof.

    Not that I expect you to admit that go course

    For me, the big question is can you cut the rope for the items that your teammates put on there while still in the group?. I wonder how that mechanic will work.

    It makes the Extraction more "exciting"...
    Now when you're protecting your loot and someone comes to also place their loot, you're not sure if they will cut the rope, or join your extraction...

    Also, if they DO join your extraction, this random dude will now protect YOUR loot as well as his agaisnt someone who might come try cutting the rope.

    I Just think its cool and will make extractions a little more exciting.

    That's about it.

    Haha,,, look, I was not much of a rogue player but I do it cause I got bored of just running the BOSS train loop looting...
    And at first, I was the one being hunted... but need to keep busy until the new PVE stuff, I can't wait for that!

    Trust me too... I do get killed as well, plenty of times!

    I just play games they are meant to be played as... in PVP I will PVP and in PVE I will do just that.
    The REAL rogues and SOBs are the ones that KICK you before you get the incursion loot.

    To make Rogue easier to catch and kill you. Last time they'd have to chase you if you managed to attach it before they're close. Now they can just cut it off if you leave, then steal it or use it to bait you back. While you? You get nothing other than Massive's empty excitement they're offering.
