DeadlyAztec11 Gallente Federation 2415	Posted - 2013.11.09 00:24:00 - [1] - Quote If I see another heavy trying to hit a player at 60M by standing up and hip firing... I'm going to lose it. Squat and aim down the scope at people's heads. Profit. Madness is the emergency exit. You can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened.

Michael Arck Anubis Prime Syndicate 1779	Posted - 2013.11.09 00:35:00 - [3] - Quote It's 50/50 with that. Though I don't argue that's the best move to make when you hip firing as a heavy.
Tectonious Falcon The Southern Legion The Umbra Combine 809	Posted - 2013.11.09 00:37:00 - [4] - Quote Yes, because standing still is a great idea in a first person shooter. At 60m out an assault rifle will destroy you, crouched or not. Unless of course, you're not talking about a heavy using the HMG? "If your enemy is equal prepare for him, if greater elude him, if weaker.... crush him"

Wouldn't I get more likes from snipers and Scrambler Pistol/I remember users? They benefit a lot more from headshots than AR users. Madness is the emergency exit.

Yep, moving at 2 miles an hour really throws off their aim Enlighten me further oh wise one. Madness is the emergency exit.

Disturbingly Bored The Strontium Asylum 1078	Posted - 2013.11.09 00:49:00 - [8] - Quote DeadlyAztec11 wrote: Wouldn't I get more likes from Snipers and Scrambler Pistol/Rifle users? They benefit a lot more from headshots than AR users. All smartassiness aside: crouching is good for picking off someone on his last leg at range. If your target is focused on you, however, he'll win a straight up shootout at 60m with an AR or SCR if he has any sense at all. He has to dance just a little bit to make headshots difficult for you, while you're a (literally) sitting duck. I honestly believe the only safe time to crouch is when you're not under direct fire. Otherwise, you gotta jiggle your fattie booty as best you can. Standing still = death. ED: Another olive branch: crouching does decrease dispersion on the HMG quite a bit, and I agree it should be a tool in the box of any good heavy. Just use with caution, cause it's dangerous. ¶Gêƒ__ Gò« Gû¿GûêGûêGûêGòáGëíGëíGëíGû¬ « GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GåÆFAT GATGåÉ pÇûGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæpÇùForum Warrior LV 1 (NEXT: 000/1000XP) ¯Gò¦pÇôpÇù

But you move so slowly while crouched that you may as well be standing still because any decent player will easily be able to keep aiming at your head. I agree with Disturbingly Bored, it can be useful but if your under fire from an enemy already, crouching will probably get you killed. But then again, as a heavy you shouldn't be trying to man fight with people 60m away anyway. "If your enemy is equal prepare for him, if greater elude him, if weaker.... crush him"

I'm going to lose it. Squat and aim down the scope at people's heads. Profit. Even while squatting and aiming down sights there is too much DPS loss in the weapons spread. AT the moment I don't have complete numbers But am working to get the correct footage to make good examples of how and why damage is lost. Up to now the problem is it's accuracy rating. At 61% accuracy if you are not dead center on the target you lose 61% of the damage. That accuracy rating needs to drop to 50 or 40% so there is an even spread of damage in the spread. Make the spread tighten faster like how it happens with the burst variant fires. Plasma Cannon Advocate

Rynoceros Rise Of Old Dudes 1244	Posted - 2013.11.09 02:43:00 - [14] - Quote Hipfiring anything but a bouncy Scout is asking to maximum ineffectiveness. ADS is a must with ALL automatic weapons. Crouching is great for defending interior objectives, particularly when holding a doorway or corner (preferably with the help of a Logi running Scans and good Reps). However, crouching anywhere outdoors is asking to get your cap peeled. *HMG fans, check out my thread in Feedback/Requests - [Request/Petition] HMG Sharpshooter Skill Cheeseburgers.

No thanks, I'll stick with my logi/scout suits and pray for a respec so I can get my 2.4 million SP out of it. What is a signature?

Yo numb nuts, next time you use an HMG look at the little ACOG style scope on top of the HMG in the third person model. You feel ignorant yet? Remember, you swung first but I swung last. Madness is the emergency exit. You can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened.

You can barely track while standing let alone squatting. When the med suits and scouts stop moving then I'll start squatting. Thank you for the brilliant insight op!
