1- They are gods in CQC in comparison (unless you use the Freedom, then it's a magic suicide button)
2- They don't have overheat, and the "feedback damage with SCRs immobilize you
3- They have higher CPU/PG requirements
4- The MD has splash damage
5- 3 Rounds from the Freedom can KO almost anything
6- The Breach MD variant can 2HKO LAVs
7- The Freedom MD can me used to take out MLT Tanks (in-case you ran out of Lai Dais)
8- They are superior against armor, and who uses shields over armor?
9- If someone does use shields over armor then you can use a flux grenade, and no grenade destroys armor (except for Cores)
10- MDs are user friendly
11- MDs can be used as a crowd control, area denial weapon. SCRs can only pew pew pew and aren't effective in large swarms of enemies
12- It's funny killing scouts with MDs
13- Oh yeah, it's the anti scout weapon of the century (or millennium in New Eden's case)
I may be wrong, and SCRs could be god weapons, but I just wanted to see what other people thought.
You are not the only one that uses MD effectivley. The problem is that with aim assist many people have LEFT Md's to use weapons that benefit from AA.now:
1-They are pretty good in CQ, true ; but SCR is King of Med-Long Range Engagements one on one.
2-This is true,but this is on of the SCR penlties. Without them the SCR would be the best weapons.
3-Another of the SCR drawbacks.
4-Yes.But the SCR has Range.
5- 1 Charged shot from the Imperial, OHKO's some ADV suits.
6- ehem...ok.
7-ehem...ok again. the MD is supposed to be some kind of weird AV minmatar weapon.
8-I use shields over armor.Cal logis havea lot of shields and a heavy WILL suffer if he gets hit by a SCR and loose -+ of his total HP in one shot. But point made, armor tanking is the new trend.
9-Well true,but its situational.
10-So are Scramblers! if you dont mind eating damage and getting into Seige mode for 10 seconds 10 times a match (at low level XD)
11-THIS IS TRUE. but the advantage the MD has vs multiple crowds , the SCR has it on 1 v 1 matches. THE SCR also works as a tactical - squad based - sniper rifle
12-SO its 1HKO'in them with charged shots
13-The SCrambler is the Anti heavy weapon of the Millenium, able to drop a heavy fro ma solid 1200 to 200 in less than 2 seconds....lol
You are just confusing stuff bro. IMO both are excellent weapons, jsut fulfill different purposes and complement different playstyles. ;) |
