    Just fought another ridiculous set of opponents in the Clan War. I drew a Level 11, Level 15 and the Level 9 Clan Leader.

    Edit: After 3 more battles, I am now sitting 2219 with 25 points. Interesting, 3355 players with less that 4 wins.

    Now here is an interesting glitch. I was fighting a Short Range battle with my GODHAMMER MKII HEAVY and I did not over heat, I ran out ammo, LOL.

    I took me about a minute to figure out what happened, I had to finally switch weapons, to complete the battle. Fortunately, that was still,working, because I could not reload the HEAVY.

    ROTF-LMAO In a never changing GLU Universe, everything balances out somehow, some way ...

    I remember you once had an ASSAULT weapon that had unlimited ammo.

    I'm more impressed with your 2,600+ KNIVES :) I'm curious as to what "triggers" this glitch though? You have a 46 round clip, so that suggests a recent upgrade. Did the GODHAMMER always have a clip?

    - OR -

    Is this the first time you actually noticed?

    I just noticed you mentioned that you can't "reload" ... now that really sucks ... could you put up a screen shot of the available upgrades for the GH (on your device)?

    Yes, isn't the 2600+ knives, something else. One of these days I need to spend the 29.7K Tokens that I have aquired. I hate to think how many knives I will have then.

    As far as the Heavy having a clip, I never noticed before. Since your post contrasting the ASSAULT with the HEAVY, I have been using my SABERTOOTH MKII ASSAULT. As always, your assessment is 100% correct. The ASSAULT is a far superior weapon.

    It take 2 bullets to dispatch a normal bad guy and only 6 bullets for a Juggernaut, so I have been using the SABERTOOTH.

    On the next SR battle, I did equip the GODHAMMER, and you are right the thumbnail is off.

    2dmav09.jpg

    It does show the HEAVY with a clip. But, at the bottom of the screen, the HEAVY has the normal unlimited clip. Go figure.

    With BASE VICTOR reaching 100% later this afternoon ...
    ... I shall turn my attention to "tweaking" LITTLE ME and stockpiling GOLD.

    Drone development has been suffering in recent weeks, so this is an excellent opportunity to make some serious progress in that regard.

    I'll also need to clear some game cash out of the vault soon, so bumping the SABERTOOTH and TALON is definitely on my future agenda; for now it's all about target practice. :)

    Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

    Here is the screen shot for the GH. I haven't started to upgrade it yet.

    There is nothing out of the ordinary here. I DID notice that the gun icon in the upper right-hand corner changed back to unlimited from 46 rounds clip ... are you still experience problems?

    Either way, I'm happy that you're happy using the SABERTOOTH. While I can understand why players gravitate towards a HEAVY weapon, I cannot for the life of me figure out why players won't use the ASSAULT weapon, especially since it's free to upgrade, hits the target every time and packs one helluva "punch"; only surpassed by a TESLA.

    Maybe they just like seeing tracers flying all over the place. To each their own, I suppose. :cool:

    No, the glitch has happened only the one time so far.

    I have had the discussion with Clan and Agency Mates about the merits of using the ASSAULT instead of the HEAVY, and both groups are convinced that the HEAVY allows them to kill faster. I think that it has to do with the 800LB Gorilla fighting style, especially in MIRN.

    In MIRN, the acronym MPH is thrown around quite often. MPH = Matches per Hour, and I am told that if you have to duck and cover, it will slow you down too much.

    Well that explains why they use the HEAVY, but it's a misconception. If you never duck, the HEAVY will overheat anyway and you need to hit the target with twice as many rounds (as you've discovered). MERCS are gone with a single burst, SENTRIES and JUGGS are dispatched with a few more. I can win shorts with as few as 3 reloads.

    I think it's the sort of thing where you need to "practice" your tactics ... timing is everything. You need primary and secondary targets, and they must die is quick succession for the ASSAULT to be effective in battle.

    But YES ... that 800lb Gorilla approach to fighting is at the root. :cool:

    I had to burn off some game cash so I took the SABERTOOTH up to 55%. I'm down to 2 clips (1 reload) per SR battle. I thought you might be interested ... nobody else is LOL

    It's not saying much but at 08:27 AM EST, The SCORPION hit RANK #50 with 41,599 VP. RANK #20 has 55,682 VP ...
    ... I'll never make the All-Time Leaderboard, but it has been a fun trip (some ups and downs) :cool:

    Meanwhile, it's Silver League Event DAY #2 and I find myself sitting in 1st place with only 26 VP.
