    Is it a glitch?
    I get killed by a juiced guy.
    I spawn I come back to the scene of the crime and the same dude is juiced again?
    Die and repeat.
    Same guy juiced again?
    Has to be a glitch or am I just that big of a noob I dont get it?

    The guy was probably had a good deal of cash on his hands and kept buying juice after juice.

    The game was 7 minutes in.
    He wasnt near the juice dealy.
    He was in the same spot everytime.
    He would take damage.
    Go around a corner and come out juiced.
    Rinse and repeat in the span of as long as it took me to die 3 or 4 times to him.
    I could see once or twice if my timing was bad but everytime I went back the dude was juiced or back to normal and would hide for a sec and then come out juiced again?

    It's true, juice can be a huge pain in the ***, but it's the only reward for surviving that long. Granted most of the people who juice rush like that are farming for it or simply purchasing it, but I do like to earn juice and then save it for one of those "oh sh*t" moments. Good juicing can really help prolong a kill streak or keep the enemy from pushing you back.

    I didn't quite get it one time either. My opponent was a Tank, and since i never played it, i figured he could get juice from bots or something EXTREMELY fast.

    While the existence of juice doesn't bother me, the ability to buy it in-game does. Without the vending machines, it's a reward for surviving awhile and doing something constructive - whether it's healing, lane-clearing, blowing turrets, etc.

    But if you save your pennies, you can buy it - and considering that a juiced assassin can lay waste to an entire base in the course of one bar of juice, that's pretty frightening.

    That said, I don't feel like I've seen quite as much juice-rushing in the past week as I did the week before, so maybe folks have chilled out a little. Or maybe not as many games are making it to OT.

    Perhaps the juice should be nerfed? Or not necessarily nerfed, but have the price jacked up to 750 or 1000...

    I agree with this statement, since you can easily gain 200-400 maybe even 500 just in one juice run.

    It almost pays for itself.

    Agreed. For the type of game it is, I think it's almost unnecessary. OT should not have juice, you should not be able to buy juice, ever.

    $1k juice sounds like the perfect solution to me. I would think it would be the easiest thing to implement as well.

    I totally agree that raising the price of juice would ultimately change how it is used. I feel it would make it a much more risk/reward based action, bearing in mind that $500 really isn't alot of money late-game or in OT when you have your upgraded skills/turrets. On another note. Snipers killing the money ball with one juice. What's up with that.

    Uber did not balance the classes for damage against the Moneyball, especially when Juiced.

    I know for a tank specifically once I juice and and jump into an enemy base and death spin a few times, I have my $500 back to buy another round. I never really thought it was an issue but now that I think of it, yeah, theres no reason for you to be able to buy juice.

    We played a game last night that was like this as well. It was on AmmoMule, and the guys who kept juicing weren't going to the middle to buy it. It was happening so often it was amazing.
    I've personally never put juice at gold endorsement level, so I'm not sure how fast it can build---it just seemed to me and the rest on my team that they were getting it much too fast. As the OP said, we'd die, come back and the same dude would have juice again.

    I could be wrong, as I don't use the module myself, but I seem to remember that gold juice endorsements mean that you respawn with somewhere in the region of 50% to 75% juice right off the bat.

    40%, exactly like you get when OT starts since you have all Gold endorsements.
