i'm still doing good with it, i win most of my 1v1 against any suit, altough heavy are tuff nut to crack, it's just that fully auto weapon pack a lot of dps in a short time now, you need to use cover to your advantage , direct hit the first shot, take cover and finish them with the splash, open ground you got no chance against AR wich is logic imho |

Play as a medic Logi and use the EC-3 or Boundless variants for optimal area denial. You'll seldom die if you can stay behind your squad and support them with reps and needles, and the kills and assists will just roll in over time. |

I think there lies the problem, if you got a 1K HP suit you stand no chance against a clever scout because of how slow you move. But more seriously though I agree with you, the MD isn't really the best of weapons to acquire kills in PC because of all the lag. However I do not agree with you the mass driver is useless, it's a pretty beast weapon for the right circumstances. |

I'm not a great player but MD has definately taken a serious hit well i've only PC about 10 time and went negative once (against Synertgy) with my MD, i'v adapt my style of play in PC by being less agressive and peppering them from behind the lines, lag is horrible and the explosion are better watched from a good distance, but you're right saying 1,5 has made it a lot tuffer for us |

Double edge sword, the more damage mods you put on it, the more useless it becomes in CQC. I've had Assaults jump in my face that my active scan didn't pick up fast enough, and there is nothing you can do as a Logi with an Assault MD. |

How were you using it?
I generally run point defense from a safe elevated area at least 50-100m away depending on the map layout. You can't run and gun with the thing anymore since people can actually aim at you and TTK is a complete joke thanks to the "adjustments" from 1.0-1.3 they forgot to roll back when aiming sucked. Just be glad they ignored the QQers and didn't nerf the MD. We'd be back to 1.0 Uprising all over again... |

Mass drivers had their ability to shake the aiming reticle of anyone it hits removed. This was a pretty big change for mass drives because targets can actually aim and fire back at the mass driver user. |

It's alot harder now. With the boundless/ assualt I usually get the high ground or behind my squad . Good for area denial and lon gharrassment. Freedom is great with repair hives backing you. Funny how the noob tube takes the most skill to use these days |

MD is fine. I believe the main purpose of the MD was to be a area denial weapon. If you want to kill, use a AR or SR. Or just "adapt or die". You know; use flux, use high ground and cover to your advantage. |

then you are doing something wrong..my last md match wasa exo5 on a stnd amarian logi witha smg and flux nades..1 nano 1 injector ..ran 28/5 2300 wp..md is as it should be a situational weapon..it isnt something that is supposed to be useable on every situation..its only really supreme on certain maps. as is the laser rifle ..you should specc up another situational weapon thats optimum situation is the opposite of the md to run on less md friendly maps |

I did notice a change with the mass driver last time I used it (EXO-5 w/ 2 complex dmg mods) and it seemed like I couldn't kill anyone with it, I know damn well it's not my fault. |

It's fine. I used it some time in my secondary character and it was great, but you have to be supportive with it. Stay behind your team, you need them. And using it as a secondary weapon could be very useful. Everyone shoots at the MD guy when they spot him, so keep low profile.
If you went 1vs1 you were doing it wrong, so it's normal getting killed by a scout or by anyone.
It's fine this way, it's not supposed to be the absolute weapon and people were abusing it a lot. We need to learn how to use guns properly, they're all for different circumstances and roles. |

#AR514 Just by not playing for 24 hours your gun game gets thrown off. Mass driver takes just the right angle. I always try to be high up when dropping mass bombs into general public. They run like roaches. |

However, your hash tag shows your true nature. You are one of the DUST QQ Kitten Core that believe Their Favorite Weapon is the only weapon. Anything CCP does that reduces your dominance makes you pour out whine like a Napa Valley party host. Game balance? What is that? Just pull the trigger and everyone else dies. Like an easy arcade game.
Well, HTFU Kitten. This is all your fault and has nothing to do with CCP.
You went into PC battles with the mind set of a MD Pub Stomper and, from what I know, that will cost you suits. Many of them. PC was mostly recently described to me as 'constant explosions of MD and grenades'. PC eats suits. And egos or at least the dreams of egos considering your post.
I have played some PC. I don't like them because I have only played once where lag didn't reduce the functionality of the team. Until that is fixed I find no reason to play them. |

MD needs more nerf... It was never meant to be a frontline weapon like how it is used now. It needs a slower recharge time between shots. Its requires no skill to aim at the ground in front of you, spam fire button and run around in circles to max your splash damage. It should have a more strategic role on the battlefield. |

Good. Use a real gun. Like a plasma cannon. Seriously though, for pc plcs great ohks heavys and oneshot in the barrel means little to no friendly fire, Iv never killed a single teammate. Run it with a squad or buddy system, you get the initial shot and let teammates mop the rest up. Freddy plop! Swoooooosh boom! Complex dmg mods help. |

not to be a dic but MD is not supposed to be 1 v 1 weapon. When it becomes that (see pre- 1.4 aimbotless AR time) it becomes OP.
What CCP should do is improve breach weapons. Make it rewarding to use breach MD in 1v1 fights if you can land shots. Of course, that would require balancing on the part of CCP and we all know how that goes... |

yes in outright face to face firing but if your a real md user you dont do that...people are constantly qqing now because aspects that were op before are now balanced scouts are no longer starfing at thier run speed..which means scout is once again only bad ass if you have skills which 80% of all scouts suck balls at thier profession the same can be said for md users ...those of us that used those spec before the ftm aspects of them see no issue with them now i killed over 100 people collectively in the 3 matches i got into where i didnt freeze yesterday ima md logi.
also try and engage your enemies from behind obvious always make sure you have the high ground and if its really an issue ..work on you head shot perfection you geta head shot from a exo5 md insta pops enemy |
