Assert Dominance MoIden Heath PoIice Department EoN. 401	Posted - 2013.10.25 22:27:00 - [1] - Quote Does ccp know how PC is played? Forges on top of rooftops you win. All letters and most of the ground covered, its a joke. Forge needs no splash damage. Thats what makes the forge gun so powerful against infantry. It takes a skilled forger to take out infantry directly but should have no problem taking out vehicles. Just my opinion.

Screw that, might as well give tanks the run of the field. It's the only thing left to stop them.

To answer your complain: No, not all the Forgers camp on tower, so the splash need to stay ( lower the radus,) because is a way to do DMG before engage a combat with a sidearm. Or as a finisher. EDIT: get rid of the noob holding charge variant

Nothing more fun than a forge direct hit that just so happened to be a headshot. Fix the HMG and you can cut the splash radius of my forge.

How does a merc made of air do anything? How do you hold a gun?
Alaika Arbosa Matari Combat Research and Manufacture Inc. Interstellar Murder of Crows 959	Posted - 2013.10.26 00:09:00 - [17] - Quote I think it would best be described as "anti anything directly in front of it"

How does a merc made of air do anything? How do you hold a gun? Again, its from the french "materiel" which is in ref to military hardware. In english it is supposed to be spelled the same way but usually isnt. I believe the word you are looking for is "matter." Yes, everything is made of matter, including man and materiel. http://grammar.about.com/od/alightersideofwriting/a/Material-And-Materiel.htm

Don't nerf an OP gun because another somewhat related gun is UP? The solution here is to make the HMG better, and nerf the FG.
Skihids Bullet Cluster Legacy Rising 2348	Posted - 2013.10.26 00:50:00 - [26] - Quote The oft used phrase, "Men and Materiel" implies that infantry units are not materiel. It's primarily AV, but a bazooka will kill infantry too. It's just not as easy or cost effective.

Chris F2112 High-Damage Public Disorder. 477	Posted - 2013.10.26 01:02:00 - [28] - Quote Being able to camp on a roof with a forge gun is a dumb mechanic. It's not fun for anyone involved except possibly the forge gunner. The way I see it the forge gun needs to either lose it's splash damage completely or have some inaccuracy when firing. The way I see it right now it's an all purpose death machine vs both vehicles and infantry and that needs to change.

Make assault forges least accurate and breaches most accurate. Also with the vehicle changes, all forge gun damage needs to be decreased to be kept in line with the reduced slot layouts and EHP tanks have as well as the reduction of AV nades and swarm damage output.
