Re: Nessies are not fun and should be taken out now.

I don't know whos been feeding those things after midnight but it's madness out there.

Maybe overdone it just a tiny bit?

    @NastySix Do you mean the Rift Relics Nessies?

    I haven't used them in a fight yet, but its confusing as the description of the Rift Relic says it "summons a Nessie", but when I had picked one up, two Nessies spawned. That's not "a Nessie", that's multiple Nessies.

    @Midnight9746 Yes them pesky buggers.

    Think I ran into a LifeLine/NewCastle/Valkyrie team and they had a nest of them.  Freaking me out..

    @NastySix They need to take these out of the game. They deal way too much damage and the game is hard enough right now without them.

    So, they finally released an OP legend ... Baby Nessie.

    Can beat you up, can spit acid, can smash down doors, can climb any obstacle, can sense where you are hiding.

    If you are trying to heal with four of these things hunting you down you might as well quit.

    The game now seems to be forever hunting down rift relics in the hope of getting a pair of these ... PITAs.

    A bit silly, IMHO.

    Rift Relics are a ridiculous addition to this season. Gold Guns literally all over the map and power ups? This isn't Apex and its ruining the game. The Nessie's are bad. How many final cicles have we been in with 3 or 4 squads left and every one of them, us included has Nessies. That's sometimes 16 Nessies and they do a ridiculous amount of damage. Not only that, they can actualy spawn 100's of yards away from their owner and still attack and the take ZERO damage in the storm. Meaning if you're running with the storm and teams ahead have a Nessie, it turns and attacks you in the storm!! 

    Then you have the phase relic that it so annoying. I get that they wanna try different things because the game is dying and I'm all for it. But comeone. Maybe you guys should go back to what made Apex great instead of continuing this spiral into ridiculous.

    Totally agree. My squad was in a penultimate ring 3 v 3 v 3 in Fragment yday and the main reason we won is I spied a RR, shot it, and quickly had a couple of pet nessies. All three squads were pinned down but two suddenly had nessies spitting at them and generally being Nessie bad a$$e$. A daft way to win a 'skill' game.

  • these nessies need to be taken out of the game. If you are healing or hiding you are a dead man. They remove the core component of this game - relying on gun skill and positioning. Pubs is unplayable because it's full of nessies.

    @i-Norm oh I totally agree. I think the Nessie's are adorable and an interesting addition but they are way overpowered.

    I have been done over by these things end game so many times(2-4 squads left). Last game we were in the final 2 and I had to pop my last battery to heal up due to these things. Fight went on and I just couldn't do my sheilds anymore due to it being wasted on Nessie damage. We were done. Not through better play or anything, just due to the constant harassment of these things (they also tip off the team where you are if you are rotating/flanking or something - otherwise out of visual sight). It's spoiled many games for me.
  • Please for goodness sake, remove the Nesis's, stop nerfing and just outright remove those guys. They're not fun, they're not necessary, they're just a nuisance.
    They're just bad design, I cant count the amount of times I could have had a better game, if it wasn't for those little creatures. I dont like using them and I dont like fighting them. 
    REMOVE please.

    I'm trash yet I have no problems fighting nessies.
    Quit whining.
    They aren't that terrible to fight.
    They are cake.
  • @Zulkiers OH yeah, you´re so good man, props to you commenting just to show off. They are a terrible edition no matter what you say. Yes they´re easy to fight however, they are 0 skill, I remember I did over 700 dmg once and got red shield purely bc Nessi, I felt cheated. Not to mention that while you´re fighting it, it gives away your position and on top of that the enemy can shoot you while you´re distracted. I was just in a game now, I was about to finish healing while in the red zone and make it out alive but guess what, NESSI is what happened so don´t give me your cap just because you intend on trying to show off, it´s not about how easy or not they are to fight, it´s about the domino effect and how much they can completely ruin your good game and that they take 0 skill. They DO NOT add anything to the game, they´re just BS, I wanna fight PLAYERS not a dumb Nessi and as the other guy states, also get rid of that silly cannon. Another no skill game ruining item in the game.

    @CaralhOrigin The average skilled player makes at least 1.5k damage per game. Nessies giving 500 per game is nothing. My nessies don't do more than 100 per game, I get more use out of Void Reflex or MRBs or Squad Heal.
  • You do realise that you're the only one defending Nessies? And that despite the damage issue I've said to you all other issues that Nessies cause and you completely ignored those facts and keep going on about damage, damage, damage when the damage isn't the only problem. 
    Regardless of what you're saying, for the many reason I mentioned, Nessies need out, I agree, many people agree and every friend I've played together with agree.

    As for the EPG, no I am not a "true" Titan fall fan, I've never even played the games and frankly don't give a rats peach if it is a Titan Fall game weapon, it doesn't matter if it is because at the end of the day, that's not what game design is about, it's about playability and the EPG is far too strong, it does too much damage and what's more is that it's super ranged so it's way too difficult to try and take someone down using one when you're also being shot by the rest of the team. If they really want to add/keep the EPG for lore sake fine, but make it a regular weapon drop and nerf the hell out of it for playability sake, this isn't a single player game, it's a battle royal and these kinds of games are all about balance and winning games through true skill and not because 1 singular weapon takes you to the win.
