Lance 2ballzStrong SyNergy Gaming EoN. 4544	Posted - 2013.12.04 19:13:00 - [1] - Quote I didn't search for the thread that a dude made with a video proving the aiming is broken. To be more specific, the "cone of fire" is the literally the size of a pixel. Logibro passed through I think saying something about telling the devs... but yeeeeaaaaa, after that not a word from anyone about it. So here's 1.7, not a word from any dev about fixing the broken mechanic. Maybe 1.8? I don't think CCP understand the frustration people go through knowing their weapon is broken beyond belief, and there's no ETA on a fix. No rush, it's only a broken weapon that the masses don't use. Would bet if it was the AR that fix would have been patched in a week. ( ._.) <('.'<) "There there Mr. Heavy, it's not your fault CCP doesn't care about you"

I even had a response from support that the HMG was not working as intended. I assumed since it was approx. A month ago when I received the mail they had plenty of time to actually fix it. I mean come on the HMG needs some serious re working! As I said, if it was the AR that fix would have been done ASAP! HMG? "LOL! Who uses that crap?! Leave it there for now, we'll get back to that like we did the proto tanks" ( ._.) <('.'<) "There there Mr. Heavy, it's not your fault CCP doesn't care about you"

That video didn't prove that the HMG was broken, it only proved that the aiming reticule provided in the game was wrong! Instead of providing you with a "spray and pray" lazy shooter weapon they gave you a super accurate automatic heavy weapon. Learn what the REAL characteristics of the weapons in this game ARE and replace your imaginary misconceptions about them, then use them to better effect. Soooo having a pixel to aim with is not broken? And you call me stupid? How about you become R.E.L.E.V.A.N.T. before calling someone names Oh btw, the HMG is suppose to have a cone of fire aka, bullet spread. The video also proved there's no bullet spread.

What this means is that if you get close the HMG is still deadly. Now it's all well and good that we joke about the HMG not hitting the broadside of a barn before it overheats at 20m, but it is given that the heavy who is supported by a logibro is an OP heavy. If I can solo as a heavy when it's not even my main role and go positive with a HMG, then it's not exactly the worst weapon out there. Play your cards right and I reckon it'll be even better than previously because fixes to explosive damage means grenades and MDs are less likely to blow you up instantly, and every second you stay alive my repair tool is giving you another 100hp. Please, this "I play solo in pub games and do well" crap needs to stop. It's the reason why the class is a joke at any competitive lvl. Edit: any class can do well in pub games... that's right, ANY class. Put a shotgun with a heavy and he'll do decent so long as he knows where to play. That class won't do anything in competitive environment. ( ._.) <('.'<) "There there Mr. Heavy, it's not your fault CCP doesn't care about you"

Most great heavies have moved on to the rifle brigade At this point there's probably literally a handful of closed beta heavy HMG users left still using the class. Sad thing.

This is something that they are actively working on and hope to have deployed into the game sometime in the future. Unfortunately, as this is still being worked on, I cannot provide an exact timeframe as to when this deployment will occur" aka "fix coming whenever."

Pick a new suit, and try out the new weapons in 1.7. I gave up on the heavy a long time ago(1.2). I was a Beta Heavy and it hurts me to see how weak the class I once cherished and loved has been shat upon by CCP. RIP Heavy/HMG I gave up a long time ago, months now. Last time i played was Proto Gallente medium + Duvolle. I still try to speak up for the class, otherwise people go "I go 50-0 in pub games, so the class is fine!" People believe that pub games are a good marker for balance, which is why the class got hit with the hardest nerf in Uprising. So much tears from assault players in Chromosome, everyday a "HMG IS OP! NERF IT!!!" thread...Uprising released, not a single thread like those to date! Imagine that?!!!! What a ******* joke.

Actually I talk worse than that to my friends. the better I know someone the more 'comfortable' I am in letting them know how I really feel. You must not have many friends. The HMG since the day of it's inception has always been defined as a weapon with a large cone of fire designed to damage several people at once. This isn't something that we think it should be, this is what we have been told by CCP that it should be. woah... engaging a troll with logic? That never goes well around here. Watch him call you names, and then proceed to give opinions as fact. ( ._.) <('.'<) "There there Mr. Heavy, it's not your fault CCP doesn't care about you"

Well until they actually change it, it remains to be a highly accurate, high damage, close range weapon.

There's broken and UNUASBLE and then there is broken but still useful. You are trying to claim that the HMG is useless and thus broken. I'm claiming that it is broken, but that makes it still useful just not how everyone assumes it should be. w/e man, the gun isn't working as intended. Argue semantics if you feel to.

Well the fact that I don't want to instal an app to something i have no intention of going on is stopping me. Here's their official forum for their game. I'm here. I'm on Twitter to only follow a few people / companies, I'm there following CCP, Wolfman, Foxfour and a few other relevant devs. Now i need to go on IRC chat? lol... no thanks. I guess I'll rely on people like Cat to relay the msg from devs who don't care enough to post info like that on their forums.
