Honestly I think the mandrake should fire a single powerful shot. strong blast with a potential to knock around lighter vehicles. the fire left behind is a nice touch too
When i first saw the Mandrake i thought it only has one shot and i was amazed when it did multiple ones. I think a second Artillery doing only one shot would be pretty nice too, but maybe it would shoot higher so longer delay and maybe a bigger minimum range
@Brandon Kennedy Altilery is a weapon that's ment to fire more than one shell at a time, how ever what your discribbing is a mortar wich is not a bad idea for a weapon in crossout.
Well the thing is that it fires that salvo so quickly and just watching it kinda irks me. it feels so fake. I know it's a game and it's supposed to be fun but yea
if you take out some of the armor in the inner back piece and place it on the outside the sticking will stop cuz it's her is having to go through those pieces of armor to go where you're wanting to shoot
I've heard of a Mandrake build (which you probably saw on the exhibition) that has mechanical legs at the front, large wheels at the middle, and small wheels at the back, and that tilts the vehicle upwards enough for the Mandrake to be able to fire directly in front of it.
I've been using the Mandrake for like the past week and can't get enough of it, I'm not expecting you to do anything with it, but on the exhibition, "Gizmootors Drake" is what I have been using. It pretty much does away with armor, but is more designed to just stay away from things and be pure support. Using the map is something that is really necessary for it, also why there is a radar detector on it.
I was thinking about a sort of drive-by vehicle. Something really fast with a heavy cannon mounted on each side and maybe a chameleon. The idea is to drive past an enemy at full speed, rapidly firing a shot off for big damage before getting away. Or maybe a build with a cannon facing backwards that you could actually use for a short burst of speed while simultaneously firing at someone chasing you. I just really like the idea of a vehicle designed specifically for flashy hit and runs and rapid escapes.
Entac, i said the aiming was strange, thats because its a "stationary" weapon, means its only really good when u stop move. just like the crosshair of a Cannon, it wides up when u move and gets more presicise when u stop. also when u use the Cabin from the Steppenwolfes the aim up is faster. ;) nice vid, Maybe give it another shot with this tipps :*
Hey eNtaK, Sorry, I'm the jerk (EddieG_333) at 10:23 who went after you... you were doing way too much damage with that thing ;o) Great to play with you.
artilerry aiming is wonky in that the shell impact area is determined by the reticle position (or assumed position) even after the shells are launched. basically you can swing the shells to spread them out even after shooting usefull if you can adapt to it
Rapid Cannon using powerful engine mark 2's 20% rate and 2 little boys since they have higher rate of fire. And can see how rapid the wasp can be on it.
Hey entak, the mandrake has trouble sticking because it tries to either mostly move range or mostly move left to right, so if you start moving left then pull in quickly itll think you still mean left and right movement in an attempt to make erratic movements not throw it off too much, but it messed it up more
They really should have a separate set of buttons or the scroll wheels designated for determining the distance of the shot, allowing the mouse to strictly determine the direction.
Hey bud, Markk_the_Hutt here, I've only test driven mandrake builds but the recoil is CRAZY with it. That is why the landing zone is so unpredictable. If you move at all the recoil will really take over. I also noticed that stickiness in the targeting. No clue what causes that, but it is severely reduced if you're at a higher elevation. Unfortunately, that exposes you most of the time. How about a video telling people to stop already with the rocket-launching rockets? I don't really hate you, but some of these kids don't do it right but do it a LOT.
I thinj the "stick" is supposed to represent the artillery unlocking from its firing position and repositioning its turret. Its just more realistic Entaco.
Finally got Steppenwolfs unlocked over the weekend, now got to decide whether or not to grind out for this legendary or not (still haven't made any yet) been having fun making pyres and pyre builds while I was grinding to unlock Steppenwolfs, I put them on Exhibition on the XboxOne there's x3 x4 x5 x6 x7 versions (got a bit carried away with the support play style and made 7 pyre lol) just search Xeno they should all come up aswell as a broken down car transport that can run miniguns pretty well. check em out if you're on Xbox and tell me what you think if you want, and please drop a like on them if you think they are good.
entak if you move while shooting of course its really inaccurate because when you press "shoot" it locks the turret and if you move it will spread in the direction you move...i think thats how it goes.
Hi eNtaK could you do a dual hammerfall build with 2+ coolers and no radiators? Maybe check out "dual hammerfall" by Red_Raccoon and make something simular or improve it.
Lukkiii When you have 2 improved coolers the cooldown after 4 shots would be 0.5 second wich is preally much nothing. When you have 2 radiators you will get 200% more shots before cooling is needed, the cooling would be very long. The normal time for cooling down is 4 sec with the radiators its even more lets say 8 sec (not sure how long it is). Lets say the cooler build would shoot 12 times the total cooldown would be 1.5 sec and the radiator build would need to cool down 8 secs after 12 shots wich makes its damage over some time way worse.
The targeting issue is the turret itself. The barrel can only move up and down in one direction. The turret, however spins. And not always in your favor. The "sticking" is happening when the turret isn't facing the same direction that you want to change the angle at. My guess would be to aim far, wait for the turret to align to where you want to aim, then adjust the angle towards yourself. It looks a little odd to aim, since the turret doesn't always spins towards the directions that you are aiming. It's not really sticking so much as, you are trying to aim the barrel at a location that the turret hasn't aligned itself to allow that location to be targeted yet. Just try to get the turret to spin and align with your target first, before adjusting your tracking of that same target. And, I don't mean just put the circle over the target. You're going to have to physically look at the turret to see which way it is facing. Most of the times you said that it was sticking, the turret was rotated away from your current target. If this weapon had a limited rotation and forced you to turn the vehicle to precisely aim, you wouldn't be having this issue. But, the turret spins 360 degrees, and that screws up everything.
You can currently only have one generator, so even if you use the 12 power trucker cab and the 3 power Gen Set, you only have 15 power available. If the Arty piece takes 8, you can only use 1. However, there is another gen set that has 4 power but I don't think it's in game yet. If you had that and Stephen Wolfs 12 power trucker cab you could build a 2 arty vehicle. I would advise against it though, you are better off to add defensive weapons instead. For the arty build I would add the Cacauses defense complex that defends your vehicle automatically if someone gets close, or even a few MG's or shotguns.
If you built a short tower, which would give you a much higher perspective, might give you a better vantage point for artillery shots! & if you could have 2 artillery guns on a build, a higher concentration of artillery fire!
Roby Miller Maybe if you had a higher vantage point, like with that missile tower build, then he'd have better control of artillery fire, now that you have a weapon that could really use a new perspective!
arty builds are difficult at lower tiers as I find low tiers to be fast and light. Not many campers. but for arty I find pyres and the legendary on to be more suited since they track.
I've not made it far enough in the game to unlock the mandrake yet... can you rotate it so the barrel is pointed forwards? use it as a short range heavy hitter?
I've been watching your videos for a while now but never said anything yet. but what if you combined the missile tower build (with no missiles) and use the mandrake instead
The reason your trajectory changes is because you are on an incline. The gun can't fire directly upwards under normal conditions, but it can when on a slope. Made a shitty diagram because I'm bored, might not be entirely accurate but it should do. file:///home/chronos/u-376d70c23e0ff1c00159c358d352031fefc01d98/Downloads/Artillery%20on%20Slope.png EDIT: Not even sure if the link works :P
yo entak look at the 2nd match you play when they touch the flag and you fire at the flag the guy on the left of you you end up killing no where close to where you aimed did it home in on him?? is this the secret powers of the infamous levitation using artys that don't miss??
delta -bird-thing-donkey siri jk If you built a short tower that is as tall as the cannon's barrel, you might have better aim control, of artillery fire! I'm just guessing, but it might be possible!
Hey Entak could you make a short tutorial of how to get alot of money without buying them ? Im currently stuck with the basic cheap guns even tho i have 3k build..
I started playing about month ago but i stopped for about week just because of how hard it is to get the money, also getting copper isn't that easy cause i always get bad team in the pve that's just dying all the time :/
Hey CM Games. . .It's just a grind fest. You already know what to do. Sell everything that you have multiples of and don't use. Look at the daily rewards, which are usually play so many hours in a day and week. Sell the DIY and loot boxes that you get from those. And cap out on all of the daily resources. That's about all you can do. When I play, I play until I can't get anymore scrap for the day. I get my bonus xp and whatever copper and coupons I can get. Once I hit the limit, I stop and come back after 12 hours, or whenever it resets. It's a long grind no matter how you do it, without paying real money.

maybe itd be two different parts, i think a single shot gun could go for other factions too like maybe scavs or lunatics

Well the thing is that it fires that salvo so quickly and just watching it kinda irks me. it feels so fake. I know it's a game and it's supposed to be fun but yea
most artillery does not fire more than once. they just fire in groups
(they still reload though)
if you take out some of the armor in the inner back piece and place it on the outside the sticking will stop cuz it's her is having to go through those pieces of armor to go where you're wanting to shoot

CC mandrake or something its really cool
Legs in back, stallions in front
10:28 "Man, I will blow all over you" five minutes later "Fix that sticky thing" two minutes later "strait in top of your head, boy"
Entak sounds like a chill laid back guy
(entak with the mandrake build) guy with 2 crickets
Entak: Wait what?!!!!
A giant duck with shotguns. That's how you know you found the right guy to watch.

Dear "Entaco".
Could you make a flying ARTILLERY????
Lol he wouldn't be able to hit anything
Yes! Finally! MANDRAKE!
yeah, we've all seen mad tower builds and air support since your videos.
I was thinking about a sort of drive-by vehicle. Something really fast with a heavy cannon mounted on each side and maybe a chameleon. The idea is to drive past an enemy at full speed, rapidly firing a shot off for big damage before getting away.

Hey eNtaK you should try to do a Leviathan build!
Really hope that crossout is available on the steam store
Entac, i said the aiming was strange, thats because its a "stationary" weapon, means its only really good when u stop move. just like the crosshair of a Cannon, it wides up when u move and gets more presicise when u stop. also when u use the Cabin from the Steppenwolfes the aim up is faster. ;) nice vid, Maybe give it another shot with this tipps :*
I love your videos and I just started playing crossout last month.
Hey eNtaK, Sorry, I'm the jerk (EddieG_333) at 10:23 who went after you... you were doing way too much damage with that thing ;o)
Great to play with you.
you should combine your love for tower builds and artillery, you'd have sight of the entire battlefield and you could just drop the damage from afar
Oh new video!!!SWEET!!!
artilerry aiming is wonky in that the shell impact area is determined by the reticle position (or assumed position) even after the shells are launched.
basically you can swing the shells to spread them out even after shooting
usefull if you can adapt to it
Rapid Cannon using powerful engine mark 2's 20% rate and 2 little boys since they have higher rate of fire. And can see how rapid the wasp can be on it.
Also have rockets to flip you forward with artillery to shoot straight. with jack.
I like that cool vehicle that you made it is so awesome 😄👍
Hey entak, the mandrake has trouble sticking because it tries to either mostly move range or mostly move left to right, so if you start moving left then pull in quickly itll think you still mean left and right movement in an attempt to make erratic movements not throw it off too much, but it messed it up more
hey entak the next thing id love to see is a huge aa like truck (gun truck) i love this artillary truck :)
Arty works fine. Theres just a learning curve.
The targeting reticle bugs out though
yeah, nobody capping while the team is full is a huge issue at times, often they don't even bother doing so if you ask them to XD.
pffft, wish i had a mandrake, artillery support is amazing.
They really should have a separate set of buttons or the scroll wheels designated for determining the distance of the shot, allowing the mouse to strictly determine the direction.
yay i finally got into an entac crossout vid! I was flp123 😊😊😊
whoopsies. I was flp1 not flp123.
EnTak if you wanna see a giant duck look up "Dr Quacko" on xbox.
Also Try "Duck Fighter" plz. great vids.
Dr Quacko is a leviathan BTW
There is a build with 2 spider legs and some wheels in the back so the vehicle is angled so you can shoot onto yourself
try adding a radar ..and..
" we're gonna rain holy fire down on the heads of these chumps" ..I spit soda when you said that

Hey Entak, you should put the mandrake on the tower build
Entak, try more flyer builds, or even make your own
Check build "Clavecar Strafe" pretty cool.
Idea:
Stick as many LMGs as you can onto one car. Firing squad all one.
entak if you move while shooting of course its really inaccurate because when you press "shoot" it locks the turret and if you move it will spread in the direction you move...i think thats how it goes.
just got a mandrake today, doing this asap.
That stickiness looks like gimbal lock issue or inverse kinematic issue. But I agree, that seems broken.
Hi eNtaK could you do a dual hammerfall build with 2+ coolers and no radiators? Maybe check out "dual hammerfall" by Red_Raccoon and make something simular or improve it.

Tesla 007 i didnt say all radiators...
gamekit.com/?reflink=62b3-114211252
use the spiderlegs to increase clustering accuracy with mandrake
looks like the terrain of the mapping Has an effect on the artie going up a slope will I guess draw in the rounds closer to you.
The targeting issue is the turret itself. The barrel can only move up and down in one direction. The turret, however spins. And not always in your favor.

hi Entak! add some antenna, so your camera will be higher and it will be much easier to aim.
do a build with 2 artillery it will be sick
and maybe spider legs will make the gun shoot more stable
Can't
you cant
You can currently only have one generator, so even if you use the 12 power trucker cab and the 3 power Gen Set, you only have 15 power available. If the Arty piece takes 8, you can only use 1.

If you built a short tower, which would give you a much higher perspective, might give you a better vantage point for artillery shots! & if you could have 2 artillery guns on a build, a higher concentration of artillery fire!
Larry Kelbaugh Jr. you can't have two artys
Roby Miller Well would the short tower help with targeting control?
Larry Kelbaugh Jr. idk
Roby Miller Maybe if you had a higher vantage point, like with that missile tower build, then he'd have better control of artillery fire, now that you have a weapon that could really use a new perspective!
Larry Kelbaugh Jr. Yea your probably right, but it would get shot of easily. Unfortunately😑
Can you make a build utilizing the giant tower to see enemies across the map while using the Mandrake?
eNtaK can you make a build with 6 preyer launchers i tried i out and it's really really op Evan at high power score this video was really cool
arty builds are difficult at lower tiers as I find low tiers to be fast and light. Not many campers. but for arty I find pyres and the legendary on to be more suited since they track.
Elo eNtaK, could you play with a build on the exhibition called Framed? I bet it would be the most derpy build you will ever play with.
Two art cannons, with a powerfull radar tower on the middle
Try a low PowerScore 88, you can oneshot everyone probably.
Hope gaijin will put eagle eye vision for artillery like in WoT
TheBigBoss jesus christ not the WoT artillery
eNtaK what would you say about twin artillery? Ofc if it's possible.
I think it's sticking because the rotating base getting caught with your vehicle
I've not made it far enough in the game to unlock the mandrake yet... can you rotate it so the barrel is pointed forwards? use it as a short range heavy hitter?
Put a tower on it for full perspective of the map.
I've been watching your videos for a while now but never said anything yet. but what if you combined the missile tower build (with no missiles) and use the mandrake instead
you should do a rammer build
with at least one harvester
Hey entak can you do the tower build but instead of missiles can you use the artillery.thank you:)
Do a double tow plzzzz. You could always have a tow up. It would destroy. Thnx love ur vids :).
Yo entak do a artllery plus tower build but just make tye artillery horizontal
Can you do an artillery build with a tower?
I think the arty would be better in a tower build so you could see more
13:58 did you notice the things from the bullets coming out
make an insane low powerscore build
Can artillery + tower built be mixed?
The reason your trajectory changes is because you are on an incline. The gun can't fire directly upwards under normal conditions, but it can when on a slope. Made a shitty diagram because I'm bored, might not be entirely accurate but it should do.

EDIT: Not even sure if the link works :P
BOOM
Is it possibile to lay this wepon down (like tower build) and shot it like normal gun it would be cool :P
DUDE PLZ TRY DOING THE ARTY AGAIN BUT WITH 2 OF THEM ON 1 BUILD
hows this and a tower build work?
they should add to arty bird's view
Can you put mandrake on missile tower ?
Can you do dual mandrakes?
yo entak look at the 2nd match you play when they touch the flag and you fire at the flag the guy on the left of you you end up killing no where close to where you aimed did it home in on him?? is this the secret powers of the infamous levitation using artys that don't miss??
* it's was the 3rd match ship wrecked
what if u point RT Horizontal so it shoots forward
do tower on arty thats so op
wait what if you flip the car forward or backwards and use the mandrake as a cannon? O.o
"i wanna build a build" -eNtaK 2017
Mandrake vs Levis? :^)
Hmm Can you Mount two! Mandrakes
Martin Lam no you cant.
Martin Lam u can't not yet. not until they add the appol gen with the new faction
Can you face the gun forward?
Is it possible to have a double Mandrake build?
Larry Kelbaugh Jr. no
u will be able to soon with the new faction
delta -bird-thing-donkey siri jk If you built a short tower that is as tall as the cannon's barrel, you might have better aim control, of artillery fire! I'm just guessing, but it might be possible!
Larry Kelbaugh Jr. I can't get a mandrake yet sadly I'm still far away from getting one I'm still working on getting one more racing wheel st
hi I love your fids can please make a ducky build plz thanks.
if you want to download crossout its free at crossout.net
or, you know, steam
Did you try ti flip mandrake ? Will it work ?
олег бурдин no sadly
how do u have everything in the game?
ENTAK PLZ DO THIS IT WILL BE SUPER OP OR NOT SUCKS PUT 2 MANDRAKES O 1 BUILD IT WILL BE CRAZY
Guys! Will it work, if ill put fast engine to a truck cabin? Will it make it faster?
youll get like 1% better acceleration
thnx
If you hold spacebar it won't stick. because the spacebar is a handbrake
The only thing i don't like about this Channel is that it doesn't upload more often.
what is the name of the outro please
I just downloaded Crossout and i dont get it with powerscores can someone explain it to me
hello i just wanted to know if I should get ps4 crossout
Hey Entak could you make a short tutorial of how to get alot of money without buying them ? Im currently stuck with the basic cheap guns even tho i have 3k build..
I know i can do that, i already have 10k scrap metal but the price for 1k isn't much, im talking about like 200 coins in like 6 in-game hours
I started playing about month ago but i stopped for about week just because of how hard it is to get the money, also getting copper isn't that easy cause i always get bad team in the pve that's just dying all the time :/
CM Games I stopped playing just by looking at the grinding system.
Hey CM Games. . .It's just a grind fest. You already know what to do. Sell everything that you have multiples of and don't use. Look at the daily rewards, which are usually play so many hours in a day and week. Sell the DIY and loot boxes that you get from those. And cap out on all of the daily resources. That's about all you can do. When I play, I play until I can't get anymore scrap for the day. I get my bonus xp and whatever copper and coupons I can get. Once I hit the limit, I stop and come back after 12 hours, or whenever it resets. It's a long grind no matter how you do it, without paying real money.
