Hard to say something bad about it. Quite fast, can take 5 players, have a weapon

For it's job it does it very well

[pseudo grove]

The only reason anyone dies to that minigun is because they assume nobody would seriously try to use it.

It's extremely easy to outgun it. Even SMGs can do it at range because of how inaccurate it is and how exposed the gunner has to be.

Also, the turning radius is extremely wide, trying to use it in tight areas like District is completely impractical.

[tight thunder]

It's impossible to turn. This makes it useless at litterally anything including dropping people off lol.

[pseudo grove]

Yeah should be able to rotate on its own axis like a tank. Don't care if it's unrealistic, it's extremely awkward to use otherwise.

[stoic pasture]

I agree. This thing needs a better turn radius and then we'll start talking.

[hollow crater]

This boat is good for anti air

[surreal agate]

It should be able to run people over i keep phasing through them it sucks 😦

[lean snow]

when you use them from the north spawn on river you have to go out of bounds to get it turned around enough to head south down the river.

[lean snow]

Thats not even unrealistic. it just shouldnt be an instant change in direction. its not limited by ground friction or steering on a wheels axis.
I wish they were slightly faster. but shouldn't be faster than the jet ski. Should be the more you are turning the slower forward you go.

[lethal ibex]

Yeah, boat physics are wierd/wrong

Same as PWC and RCB

[pseudo grove]

Well I watched some videos prior to commenting to make sure, it would seem like the standard way to do a 180° on a watercraft involves a U-turn. Which kinda makes sense, since you can't really turn the engine completely orthogonal to the long axis of the boat.

Buuut in terms of gameplay it still feels ass, so :)

[lean snow]

It depends on if you have jets (and the right setup) or an outboard motor. But either way you can start turning from a stop and you don't need to start with going forward. Agreed with game feels like ass.

In case there's any question about how useless everyone perceives these to be. Pic some seconds before game start so all vehicles anyone wants are already taken.

No pew pew= no fun

But rhib has pew pew

And is water jeep

So wtf, map issue?

[pseudo grove]

Except unlike jeep the gunner is completely exposed and it handles way worse

[lethal ibex]

Well, yeah

Would be hard to change first thing

Second thing is given in this game

[tight thunder]

There biggest mistake was not just making an objective ben entirely in the water. No islands, just the water. Thern you'll see actual naval combat and the rhib boat being used.

[lethal ibex]

Islands alone would work

Like Parcel storm/lost islands

But best we have is Multu, which is awfull and terrible, and I will not change my mind

[low warren]

Can we make the turning a little bit less stiff?

They feel a bit annoying to control in tight spots

[pseudo grove]

Also the turret is locked to less than an 180° arc in front of the boat. So it is a worse Humvee in every possible way.

[spark oracle]

Everything wrong with the Rhib in less than 10 seconds.

Whats this god awful accuracy and damage? - like whats the point even?

[lethal ibex]

lol

True

Peak RHIB moment

[fierce ginkgo]

okay so I ain't crazy

the crosshair does move around the screen a touch

[spark oracle]

Do rhibs really need 7 bullets to kill someone?

[tight thunder]

This is painful to watch. It should NOT be that dogshit at killing infantry - it is a minigun! This goes the same for the chopper gunners.
