We had three straight games of kids running Mida/Last Hope but never fired the Mida and would just sprint at us with last hope. We changed up our Loadouts after that and didn’t notice as much last hope after that.
That would be insanely annoying.... Ya, haven't experienced anything like that so far, but it is hilarious to me how soooooo many fucking kids can ONLY use that weapon. I've gone against a lot of people using it lately, and I always keep track of people's names now so I know not to charge into them or anything, regardless of how weak they are (because hope will rape you no matter what), and I still don't think I've encountered a single person who uses last hope constantly, that can aim/shoot well with their other weapon. I'm getting better and better about forcing them into bad spots where they get stuck fighting me at mid-range. The bad ones just keep firing, and of course they maybe take down 1/3 of my shield, but the kids who aren't complete idiots, switch right away knowing what kind of spot they're in, and I swear all hope users just shoot on my feet when they're not using a gun that someone without thumbs could get kills with. Just like kids with pistols in D1, when you could see people's stats per gun. Oh damn, 3+ k/d with hand-cannons, .4-1.1 with everything else, good thing you don't rely on a broken meta to do decent
.
I'm just glad of how little I encounter it in trials, most games one person had it, but I just made a point of never chasing that person down in tight areas, and if I did, I did it with a rocket, knowing they'd come jumping around the corner and I just had to land my shot at their feet lol. I baited out sooooooooo fucking many Last Hope kids with that tonight, shit cracks me up.
Anyone use the Trials Assault Rifle yet? I picked that up tonight. I also got the hunter gloves from trials, and those are BY FAR the sickest gloves I've seen (non-exotic, one exotic comes close). I'm still going with calus shader for all my gear, so I threw that on and my guy looks awesome now.
I reallly gotta get to bed, went crazy cleaning tonight. 7 hours until kickoff.
