Why is the Stormer HVM so bad?

They can be inconsistant, but

first shot, only 1 dart hit and it looked like it scrapped the target rather than hitting something critical.

Second shot, I think they got lucky and only lost an engine. Also its not quite clear from the angle, but I think again only 1 dart actually hit. You were aiming a tad high in my opinion and aiming right for the cockpit works best

Third shot im not sure

fourth shot, you definetly had multiple darts phase through the target and they got lucky the one that hit (which is kinda wierd) didnt hit anything critical.

So Id say, your partially just unlucky but mostly suffered from Starstreak curse and at 200 ping, the Stormer HVM is not a recommended vehicle to use im afraid. It requires low latency to be usable and its not an issue they are likely going to be able to fix

Given it uses ASRAAMs and we already have those, it would make sense

I shot down my first helicopter recently, so at least it semi functions at 250 ping now \o/

I have very little say in the connection, for clarity. The cowards refuse to set up Aus servers. Then also wonder why there’s not many Aus players. Oh, and kiwis too I guess.

Hehe yeah, Perhaps they should rename the Stormer HVM the Emu :P

That would be a more accurate rebrand for the company than the weapon, on account of their apparent vehemence in not giving us even cheap servers.

CAMM uses many of the components of ASRAAM, including the motor.

The only reason RAVEN came to fruition is that we have a stock of early block ASRAAM aging out as well as a few spare HMT 600 chassis from the Soothsayer ECM trials (see below).

For that reason, RAVEN is not serial production and if the UK has to fight ASRAAM stocks will be needed for Typhoon/F-35.

We will be using Land Ceptor/ CAMM for intermediate range, and probably either VAMTAC Rapid Ranger or Boxer RIwP for SHORAD.

Exactly my problem, although it seems NZ has a better connection than Aus, I average ~200 ping on US servers, not 250.

Biggest problem for me with the Stormer, is phasing through enemies and hitting their tails, which still get me assists and kills (sometimes), but only after they crash.

On a good day, 210, on a bad day, 270. We really botched the implementation of the NBN and somehow are still behind you muppets when it comes to internet speeds.
