I have got enough stuff to make me pretty scary from time to time. As for forge guns not being able to one shot, well i am sorry they do. Militia tanks can be one shotted by them, although i will admit it is rare. Most of the time it takes 2 shots to down a Militia tank. I have the first upgraded tank, the one with the higher shields i forget the name, and am working on the armored one. That tank can be three shotted by a Forge gun most of the time and two shotted other times. Yes i have been playing around with fittings and such to get the most effective set up for what I can use.
That being said, this is Beta still and they want all the feedback they can get, if you wanna call me a QQ'er then that is your problem not mine. I am seeing something that can be exploited and giving suggestions. I mean is this not part of what a Beta is for, find bugs, glitches, exploits, and other issues.
I also know that they will be adding A LOT more stuff and this is only the first Beta Weekend. I am not that stupid. Basically the Devs have three choices with my post.
1) Fix what I believe to be an exploit 2) Take only part of what I suggested to make changes 3) Ignore it and leave things as it is
I know they are taking your objections to my post into consideration when they read mine and are working the best to make a game we all can enjoy. In the long run, it is their game and we play it and if you do not like it then just do not play. I respect each of your opinions to my post because as i have fully disclosed I do not have the Forge gun and do not know the play style associated with it. All I ask is instead of saying "OH QQ more" or "Get better at the game" come out with suggestions or information that does not sound coincided. You disagree with me fine but offer alliterative or information so when someone else who feels the gun is OP comes into this tread they can be enlightened by your experiences.
Part of the problem is your using the word exploited. There is no unintended game mechanics being abused for a gain. The weapons do damage as intended in its current iteration. No one is causing tanks to catapult across the map, there is no grenade throw glitch making them go hundreds of feet, and there is no download for stupidity. The other thing is, there is nothing that prevents a team from spawning all heavies with swarms, and popping your tank so fast you never realized you got into it.
Part of EVE is that its a sandbox. They work to balance the tools, but CCP has a hands off policy about player tactics and strategy. If you want to expose yourself to multiple players or just one, long enough for him to fire a couple of shots, well that is your own prerogative. |
