There goes my interest in forge guns...if you're going to nerf that, nerf the MD as well.

How about eliminating red line kills/WP? That would make a small patch worth it.

With the new HP buff to heavies, they actually stand a reasonable chance to survive direct hits from standard forge guns.

That's nice.

turret fixes were to stop turrets damaging the vehicle they were mounted on and changes to the way their collision works to stop them getting hung up on the environment.

HAHAHAHHAHA

My heavies can survive basic Forge gun direct hits now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(disclaimer: with a plate)

No more silly little millitia forge noob counter forging me now

Ok, so if I will retreat from battle with turret set on 90* towards my hull, and I accidentally hit lamp with it - what's gonna happen then?
a) Turret returns to the 'home' position of 0*.
b) Turret will be 'pushed' by object, but without interfering in hull position.
c) Turret will drive through, and both objects will not collide with each other.
..or maybe something else?

And what about Gallent HAV turret angle*, did you cut it so it is identical as Caldari HAV?

* thanks

Not bad

Turret fixes tho, i hope that includes the DS turret where when you look forward it snaps back to

I have proficiency 3 and think the nerf is just fine.

LOL You can't survive body shots from a forge gun, even MLT is 1320 damage base. And that's before any damage mods.

Would it have killed you to put the new weapons in however? lol

Nice to hear a FG user being ok with it. I was sure it wouldnt bother those used to FG snipe as they know their ways.

On a side note, comparing MD and FG is bad. MD is supposed to be an area denial weapon.

FG snipe is more like Thor's divine punishment. You just suddenly die.

As a forge gunner I approve of the nerf. Direct hits are always more satisfying.

+1

1320 damage before mods? Not likely.

It is great, but it's only to the specialized heavy suits, not the basic frame.

* Increased Basic and Sentinel armor/shield hit points from 405/405 to 480/480.
