Thermobarics

[Jacques Strap]

I remember reading somewhere a few months ago that you guys would change the thermobarics perk. Is this true? It would be nice because I think that thermobarics is too similar in playstyle to director and remore mine.

I like the idea of having a missile altering plane course. Maybe make changes for Director instead, to something more damaging > knockback dealio?

I thought the change was from completely stalling it every time to changing it's direction.

No, they had already changed that.

its probably not well known, but if you are using thermo, and are pushed hard down by another whale, or by a missle, you can use thermo to slow your fall. I discovered this by accident while on a suicidal crash course to the floor. i was shocked when i didn'd die (but i died 3 sec. later, but thats not the point).

Change thermo perk? no please! change director instead! i found that director perk is the most useless perk in game. at least that's my opinion.

As a devout explodet player i feel that thermo is useful and has a place but director is too alike to remote. I would like to see director changed to another perk. Having said that i dont have any ideas as to what that could be :O

Don't change Director its fine the way it is maybe a damage increase, but don't change the entire perk.

I, personally, liked the old thermo (stall effect), but I think the current version has a more viable application in competitive gameplay. If any of the red perks were to be changed, I would suggest director as well. It's really no different from remote. That being said, I don't think any of the explodet's red perks needs to be overhauled. The remote mine nerf should be the highest on the "todo" list at the moment

Agree with most people, love thermo and find director the most useless red perk for explodet

[TomBRowkaH]

Yup, director is entirely pointless right now. I think thermo has a lot of interest to it, even if it's probably not as powerful as remote mine. Once remote mines are nerfed, thermo should be fine, but director is still going to need some sort of change to make it appealing. Maybe director could cut down on the negative side effects of using mines/missiles at close range?

I think you will see a lot more people using director once remote mine is nerfed. I think that people call it pointless right now because remote is just so much better. I would reserve judgement on how useless it is until a change is made.

[Massi]

Director is not useless, that is pretty much the only setup I use is director you just need to use it and try it.

I am so bad with Expo, I have no idea why, but these weapons on it are useless against one person, but they are HELPFUL against like five, you just drop a bomb and BOOMB their knocked of balance, then you kick their hineys, so they are sometimes helpful.
