I was thinking give it some incentive to actually wanna hit direct hits. The fact is most people just aim for splash dmg and I think IMO that is exactly what is wrong with this gun. Splash damage should be a consolation prize not the main concern to the user. Bump the splash down to more like 2-3 meters 4-5 with Assault. You shouldn't be using something with the intention of not caring if you hit direct or not. It just seems rather pointless to me.
I'm sorry, but anyone who talks like this about the Mass Driver just has absolutely no clue what they're talking about. No, splash damage should not be a 'Consolation Prize'. Decent splash damage is the only reason anyone uses this weapon at all. If you were not able to kill people with the splash damage, no one would ever use the Mass Driver, period. |

Decent splash damage is the only reason anyone uses this weapon at all. If you were not able to kill people with the splash damage, no one would ever use the Mass Driver, period. Exactly my point. You just proved me right GG. You guys only go after splash damage where it should be the other way around. Otherwise get rid of the direct damage than and only have splash damage.
Once again, you've proven to me that you've never used a Mass Driver for any significant amount of time at all.
The Mass Driver is not like an AR. You do not point-and-click, and get an instant automatic hit if you're on target. The projectiles have a long travel time and fire at an arc. Because of this, there is no way that anyone ever goes around getting 100% direct hits. Yes, I almost always go for splash damage because that is the only thing that is practical. But even then, at any significant distance, or anything other than the optimal situation for the MD, it is difficult to hit with the splash damage.
So please just stop, all you're doing in continually proving how clueless you are about this situation. |

So in a close up CqC how are you having to worry about the arc and travel time.....?
....to a lesser degree, yes. But it still is not a hitscan weapon. And it still fires at an arc
I really wish some of you rampant sh!t talkers about the MD would try it, and please let me know how simple it is to run around getting direct hits 100% of the time.

Will prob do this just to prove a point and will point out I have never in my life in ANY shooter used any kind of grenade launcher. I just don't see this weapon being hard at all to use. Especially with Flux nades.
Bring it on. I'd love to find myself in a match with both of you, just to witness your pathetic attempts to prove that the Mass Driver is OP. |

Than I can run around claiming to use it for the challenge aspect.... coming from a guy who dropped the AR immediately cause it wasn't so easy a monkey could use it like the MD.
Alright cool, I encourage you to give it try and see.
(Also, this and all of your future child-like flinging of insults will be simply ignored.) |
