Are you serious, what about pray and spray AR's nerf them too? Just because someone shows skill with a weapon you cannot use does not mean its OP. if you get caught in close quarters with a Mass driver run, just like you would when you get hit by a sniper rifle. Guess we need to put a limit on how far the snipers can kill and if they stay behind red line they should die right.
Taking away splash from mass drivers at close would leave a logi using it defenseless at close range. As we mass driver operators know if someone is above you disengage and change tactics, if someone is shield tanking change tactics.
Mass driver operators also know that direct hits are few and far between for us, I have snuck up on snipers place 2 body shots in thier backs (XD) they get up and we dance.
Seems there may be a problem with that end of it Logi Bro.
As a mass driver I have accepted its limitations as this weapon allows me to engage the enemy at mid distances while supporting my team with reps, hives, injectors, and drop links.
Problem is all the whiners only know one tatic and if that does not always result in kills for them, they wine about it.
Play the game for what it is enjoyment with your bros and respect for each other.

Besides even if people get too close you can stoll kill them with a direct shot. And if your a logi yku shouldn't need to be in the front just behind your squad acting as support and area of denial.
True, true, why would a merc need to defend himself I close quarter combate?
Here is an idea lets just turn off all close quarter kills for all weapons unless it is a headshot. Since AR, and heavyset have way more rounds than a mass driver. Or maybe reduce the number of bullets an AR or HMG can fire at close range to 6, that's all the mass driver gets. Oh and let's not forget the sniper behind the red line he's bullets should probably do 50% less damage when behind the red line or after say 100 meters.
You guys are unrealistic with your thoughts on this.
