funny how the forge has been the 1 weapon that has not changed in over a year, been no complaints about it, and now all of a sudden people are using it in pubs and its deemed OP
yes its a VERY strong weapon
with a 2.5s time PER SHOT
4 shots
direct hit is a kill
splash takes 2-4 shots to kill
yes ANY forge melts vehicles, especially at range
forgers up high now place more weight on snipers, just think if just 10% of redline sniping scrubs would point that rifle where it should be, picking off people on roofs etc.
the reason for any talk of this is cause getting up high with a forge allows you to shoot freely and even a blind monkey will luck out and get a kill
ESPECIALLY when the idiots on the other team throw down an uplink in the open and morons keep spawning like its feeding time at the zoo...
I wish this game tracked player accuracy cause you would quickly see how difficult the forge is and would instantly stop this discussion |

someone who has obviously used them rather than simply QQing over them
im not saying forges aren't EXTREMELY strong
BUT, they are EXTREMELY difficult to kill infantry, much easier on high ground, but still not a walk in the park
forever ive hated forgers, until LAV 514 the militia forge gun was my ultimate nemesis, im seeing it more now, but everyone gets lucky
being an experience forger every time I get smashed I no longer get upset, but nod to the other guy for hitting the shot
I know the difference between getting 1 shot (still more luck than skill in my experience) and getting splashed to death.
and honestly... if all these scrubs didn't spam vehicles for 2 months straight, you wouldn't be dealing with near as many forgers as you currently do...
so honestly... the LAV scrubs are the reason for the QQ
no one likes being run over, so they get off the ground, get up high, and forge the crap out of anything that moves.

when I get home later I'll try to look all this up and make an accurate post. not gonna ballpark this and get even more crying over it

having elevation makes forging considerably easier than a lot of things.
on even ground or up close this is extremely difficult
it doesn't help the fact that 80% of people u run into in pubs are absolutely clueless how to play this game.
snipers crouching out in the open trying to hit the heavy with 1000+ EHP and exposing themselves
u wanna know how to combat forge sniping? MOVE
all it takes. use the map, use some cover, pull your head outta your @$$ and apply a little tactic to playing.
work as a team to clear off the tabletop, keep the attention of the forger on 1 side of the mushroom while your teammates load a ship behind and ambush the top.
this is why I generally stay out of general discussion. most the people crying are absolutely clueless |

No, no it should not.
and this was added later in chromosome...
if it was ever FoTM it was when they allowed for zero SP to be invested in it.
Its like going to Kentucky and just dropping off a truckload of assault rifles in the woods and walking away....
cant possibly end well :P |

Short answer...highly unlikely
Depends on the situation but i have not met a tanker that doesn't lose his hardware against me.
Legend is the hardest, and nakaya indegine is the most slippery, but I have not met anyone that can elude me.
And now im perfecting the kamikaze av brigade for u redline tankers :P |
