As frustrating as I find the catapult feat, as it has been my end in many matches, I'm confused as to why people think it's OP? Yes, instakill, that's an annoyance in of itself but you have to remember it's literally, and i'm not trying to be funny, sarcastic, or offend anyone, literally a mother.F***ing CATAPULT. Of course it's powerful, you think anyone in history ever got hit by one of those and just just held their knee like "OOOuuuuch, that hurt man!!"
Sure it could be slower but i'd say maybe 3 or 4/5 times, even in the midst of a heated and crowded battle, i can get out of that zone fast enough so maybe not really? The first indicator is the guy putting his sword in opposite hand and doing an entire full on wave motion to signal the thing before you see the red zone pop up. If you see a warden on the field just pay close attention -especially- if he decides to tuck it and run in a giant free for all mash up of heroes.
I'm not saying that buffing or nerfing is ruining the game, or it's unnecessary, but there's a lot of stuff people complain about that can easily be taken care of with a little bit of practice. The catapult is pretty cool in my opinion, and i don't even main any of the knight characters, or second, or third. Zerker main, all the way! But for those of you who haven't at least tried getting in a custom match and practicing this stuff with some friends or even some random players, please do so because i think you'll find it makes an enormous difference.
This, it has no place in a fighting game.Originally Posted by DrExtrem Go to original post
And what about when the one that launchs it is on the other side of the map? You have nearly no warning at all.Originally Posted by seaners95 Go to original post
Been playing since the Beta and I've never been in a game where someone's launched a catapult on the other side of the map without at least being able to see your target, so I guess in that case it's just unfortunate they guessed right. Like I said 3-4/5 times, not everytime. I'm not that good just yetOriginally Posted by Specialkha Go to original post![]()
I've dodged catapult launches easy. And I'm a **** player. I've also had my own catapult been evaded on more than one occasion.
IMO the people *****ing about this are the idiots I saw in mmos who couldn't get out of ground telegraph AoE. This feat is no different and has relatively the same time period to react.
How about instead of complaining that something is op because it kills you, you learn to adapt and not be so blind to what's going on around you during a match.
Lol noobs
so basically your saying please don't nerf my catapult...Originally Posted by alustar24 Go to original post
I'm saying maybe practice a bit before prompting Ubi to change a feature in the game that other people, who knows even more people, might enjoy. Also, never used it before. Like i said, Zerker main, Orochi Second, Never used the Knights long enough to test it out.Originally Posted by Ivarr.Bygunn Go to original post
