HT fix the SQUID!!! It rots!

Its totaly over modeled. It takes WAY to much damage and those beady eyes really piss me off.

Of course, I only see what he posts here and what he does in the MA.  I know virtually nothing about the man.  I think its important for people to realize that we don't really know squat about each other.... definately not enough to use words like "hate".

You dweeb...quit your whining...I'm so sick of hearing whining about the damn squid.

He is modeled exactly per the Jules Verne squid of fame that sunk many a sub.

Next time you attack the squid, try to evade the arms and you won't take damage dweeb!

The squid appear to function exactly as Kurt Tank designed it.

If you have some hard numbers to say otherwise, post your data...otherwise fekoff.

The arm velocity is also off by a negative 10%, while the beta-Pizza had peperoni velocity had a positive 30% advantage... clearly this is all part of the anti-SquidWaffe conspiracy! Those Peperoni Opportunists can't let a good Squid loose in the arena!

Now that you mention it Wulfe, I do believe that the arms are off by a negative 10%. When I get home from work today I will try to get some hard data on the squid.

Bat, what you said to me is just wrong. Got something for you too.... ^ !

Personally Bat, I think you're just mad cause the dmg model on the squid rivals your beloved 38. Buy a clue dweeb, it's a sea creature and therefore impervious to your silly .50 cals.

Argue the modeling all you like but heed this warning:

The next one of you guys that steals my Squid kill is going to get nailed with 72,341 "Check 6" calls.

Because I know THAT will change your ways.

Entirely too many of my squid kills getting stolen. I think for every one I got, 72.3765 have been stolen. I know, because while I don't worry about score and just play for fun, I do track my stats to the fourth decimal place.

Be forewarned!

From "Aces of Mindanao" by Maj Tom Nemoed, USMC:

"During our regular patrols over Utamo Bay, many of our pilots would strafe the giant squid with the 50 cals.  But the squid's head seemed immune to damage although the arms visibly flinched.  It wasn't until our squad was upgraded to the F4U-C that rounds to the squid's head had a noticable effect."

There it is, in gray and black.  Case closed.
