That's what you call abusive, and I feel dirty every time I kill someone with that piece of shit. It's a guranteed kill if you're within a certain distance, and you don't even have to aim. That's just wrong, and quite frankly I don't know how to fix/tweak it. Epic is notoriously stupid when it comes to balancing/removing things that break their games, even if their forums are being flooded by everyone stating the same thing. They just ban users, and constantly delete/close threads when they can't handle it. Look at how long it took them to remove the horrible concussion grenades in Gears 2. They won't do something about it untill the player population is down to nothing. |
I don't know, there are viable things Epic can do about this gun: Mendicate mentioned slightly nerfing the power and reducing the spread, I think you can limit it to a power weapon pick-up so that there are only 2 on the map at any time. Hell I also think it should be hit or miss; either they are close enough to gib, or it misses completely, no more "one-shot down" from the SOS.
And if you know you are abusing it...let it go man!! Don't let it control you!
