I'm sorry, but hasnt the bleeting on the forums of late been against point click I win weapons?

Its not point click moron. Its charge, hold, aim fire. Just cause you redlined someone doesn't make it OP. Now shut up and go play.

Did the enemy snipe you as you were up there? If not, then their tactics were UP.

You mean hide at the top of the map unopposed and rain down one hit kills. The fact that you can hold the charge makes it even easier to kill with. Point, Wait, Click, Win. And there is nothing that can be done about it because they can't see you unless they are directly under you to see through the slats of the fencing on the buildings, which puts them right into your killzone.

Edit: and if your talking about the assualt variant (which you aren't cause you just made an alt) it requires a lot of skill to pop off forge shots and not run completely out of ammo without a logi backing you up. In that case teamwork is OP.

A couple good snipers trained at on Forge gunner will make his life hell and he won't make his shots count. I know. I've tried.

I had no logi, I'd just save the ammo.

One experience where your team has the other redlined does not constitute proof of anything.

When are people going to learn that anecdotes don't mean anything?

Exactly which kept you at a mesly ten and if it wasn't for your obviously good team who kept them redlined while you sat around like a duck, then you would be singing a different tune.

Forge Guns require skill.

Lol.

Okay, maybe a little, but how many Heavies think its actually hard to aim these things?

You only need splash to kill the basic suits/Scouts, its easy to hit DSes and HAVs, and the Forge gun is much more powerful than the normal Forge.

Because your team was good and you sat in a good position, the forge gun is OP? No. You made a good decision obviously to hide and not get shot. Props to you. If the other team was smart they would have lured you out and AR you to death. You made a good decision. But that doesn't make FG OP. They are designed to be AV. The fact that someone thought outside the box and shot a person makes you smarter then the average bear. Congratulations. But its your brain that's OP not the gun. Keep making good choices but quit making it harder for newer players to have any chance in this game at all without a freaking AR. Its sad what you people are making this game into

Of course, but still didnt kill me, got reps for that. I'd pop out while holding a charge, pick a target, and waste it. The only time they could snipe me though was when I was on a structure that did not have a fence.

couple of forge guns and someone dropping ammo on top of a tower, only counter = orbital.

Annoys the hell out of me, completely nullifies my tank, can't fly my incubus up there and kill them like i would a sniper thats annoyed me, very unlikely to get a dropship up there to jump out and rifle them.

No no no, I dont want the forge to lose its skillshot potential, just an adjustment to its splash damage. If you can snipe with it thats fine, but it should really require you to have good aim, as you say its primarily an AV weapon. CCP should also look at its socket design and remove the fences off the tops of some buildings to make certain situations less likely.

They are designed to be AV.

heh I'm amused that your talking down to someone thats so far above you that you might as well be crap back chatting the anus you fell from.
