I have no idea what you're talking about. Most engagements with tanks occur within 100m, maybe 150m max. There aren't even that many places on the maps that get such an open space. If you're referring to being able to sit atop high towers, you can still do that and hit targets below you, you just can't snipe across the bleeding map. If you're referring to how dropships can just sit high up in the sky, untouchable, you may as well complain about the redline or MCC, because dropships at that hight are just as useful to their team (and nobody uses MCRUs like that, it's way more efficient and fun to just place an uplink and get back to the battle).

Where do you see the balance in that when forge guns can currently lock down almost an entire map? The problem is they can't lock down an entire map. They can't even lock down the area around the table-top in Line Harvest from the tall middle towers. I've gotten more kills on people skyscraper tower forging with my forge gun than vise versa. The problem is when someone has splash LOS on a hack-point. Then any FG becomes completely broken. I've been able to replicate that complaint and even without nano hives nearby it still feels messed up. The Ashland map in Skirmish or Domination mode is still vulnerable to this if there is no one covering the monkey bars. The only vehicle getting a clear nerf in 1.7 is a specific armor taking HAV set-up. The others are all getting a timed survivability buff. God willing we will no longer see new tanking players getting killed for doing nothing tactically wrong. Further the new Rail and Missile buffs are looking sexy. It makes me want to do a tangent into Large Missiles. I'll have to concede that all Std LAVs might be getting nerfed but would prefer to try them out first and see how things go.

Where do you see the balance in that when forge guns can currently lock down almost an entire map? i'll accept the no change if they glow REALLY bright have 200M range or something idk if you're on a tower you cant charge up less muzzle velocity I think all Alpha Damage weapons should be obvious to the battle field. The glowing blue balls are cool, Rail Turrets should get that feature. If Towers bother you then support having them nerfed or ground access for all instead of limited to dropships. Muzzle velocity is already slow enough. All the other rail weapon shots are faster. It is that current muzzle velocity that counter balances the range as is. Anything slower with nothing given back is just a bad nerf. Any range reduction will need a counter boost. Either a RoF increase, muzzle velocity increase, or even hit-scan status (with the removal of all splash damage). Once rendering is improved all the long range weapons are probably going to need a review. It's been been some time since we've had Large Rails spamming areas from safe distances and a lot of us seem to have forgotten how annoying that was.

I do complain About MCC and redline. The thing is , getting into 175 range with swarms or a 200mts with a HEAVY suit taht is UP as it is is just suicidal. Its obvious for AV infantry to want to be as far away of the vehicle as possible. Its not hard to understand. Fix rendering instead of nerfing EVERY SINGLE proto weapon i have. D@mn...

If rails were that good then why haven't we had people asking for all Large Rails (vehicle and turrets) to have their muzzle velocities reduced? Seeing how they are faster than Forge Guns and have many times the range then obviously they have the same problem but worse. jerrmy12 kahoalii wrote: Rusty Shallows wrote: Any range reduction will need a counter boost. Either a RoF increase, muzzle velocity increase. HAHA, no, they need range nerf to discourage towers, stop sniping dropships from 400+M, and to have balance. With falloff and a completely stationary dropship the shot might be able to be hit at that range. I've never done it. The problem with balance is some people won't be happy until the Forge Gun is useless in all cases. So they have to post exaggerations on the forums laced with melodrama. A good rule of thumb is anyone who simply demands nerfs has no interest in any game balance at all. "She may not be Miss Right but she'll do right now." SR-71 310k+ SP for +0.05m/s (>2in) on a Heavy.

Something like 200-250m. Yes and i would say less than that. if there will be eventually proto vehicles, or if vehicles can stand up to the solo av player then this will not be an issue. Though even at 200m that is still too much range for a gun that shoots from the hip, doing such serious damage. The damage should also be looked into once all vehicle variants are out. Caldari dropships are mostly one shot out of the air, and gallente dropships take about 2 or 3 shots, but are usually shot down, by the lack of the vehicle reaching its maximum speed. I really wish CCP would have taken out proto AV for 1.7. It really does not fulfill its role, being there is nothing proto about vehicles that are out. Plus the description of the heavy states that it can be on level with a vehicle. Currently it is by far more when one is equipped with a forge gun. I would like to see a forge gun alone costing over 1 million isk, or perhaps have vehicle prices take a plunge where, players who spec into vehicles can have a fun factor into the game. Either way, the biggest thing after balancing vehicles is surely to balance vehicles and AV.

Kasote Denzara A Vulture 869	Posted - 2013.11.22 11:27:00 - [43] - Quote There's no issues with the Forge Gun at the standard and advanced levels. Those two levels are perfectly fine. It's the prototype ones that are scaled in unstable amounts. Its Assault variant shoots faster with more damage than the advanced, making it the strongest FG in terms of DPS. That's not right. The damage isn't right. The damage of the Assaults can- no, should- be toned down. This is coming from the guy that used to constantly run the Forge Gun. (I still do, but I'm on a double Assault Scrambler Pistol spree for a while now.) The people that run the prototype Forge Guns of any variant are going to have at least prof. 3 and damage modifier stack for tank busting. That's logical. You wouldn't charge a heavy wielding a HMG with a Scrambler Pistol with no damage mods or prof, would you? Didn't think so. Someone worded the Swarm Launcher and Forge Gun in a way that I'll pass on. The Swarm Launcher is a light weapon and should be a light anti-vehicle weapon, meaning it is not able to easily combat high geared vehicles by itself. The Forge Gun is an anti-material weapon. It's a heavy one. Its main use is to pop tanks, though we use it against infantry as well. It's supposed to be able to combat a high geared tank. I'm not saying easily, but just be able to. This is my opinion. You will never have unstoppable tanks. We will prevail. "I am a mercenary, I do as I need. I'll shed Amarrian blood for the freedom of my Minmitar allies but only for a price."

Its obvious for AV infantry to want to be as far away of the vehicle as possible. Its not hard to understand.. I think you are making a mistake here. The heavy suit has always been described as point defence. HMG players use this as a reference point to ask for more HP and gun changes to make them more effective at this role. Why should a forge user be able to roam the map at will with ease? I think the intention for the forge is to counter tanks that threaten the teams current goal. Capturing or defending a single objective. You may want to shoot anywhere on the map you want from complete saftey but it is not balanced. If the tank is 175 meters away it is likely at another objective of on the fringe of where you are. Why should you be free to defend many objectives from your single point? Shouldn't that be the job of the forge gun at the other objectives? or should you not get a vehicle user to help get you in range? The forge guns current range allows for high alpha on multiple objectives from positions of complete or near complete safety. What you are saying is that its hard or dangerous for swarmers or forgers to have to chase a target so you should be able to do it from anywhere. As it stands now getting onto a MAP with a forge gunner on it in a vehicle is suicidal. Too much power with too few limits. The 1.7 no range change to forge guns is a huge mistake. The forge is the most broken and unbalanced gun in the game at the moment. Everything Dropship youtube channel my Community Spotlight

Where do you see the balance in that when forge guns can currently lock down almost an entire map? Vehicles are getting a heavy buff. Base hull strength doesn't mean crap. Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.
