Master Jaraiya Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 1486	Posted - 2014.07.16 10:56:00 - [1] - Quote Dear CCP, If you can remember, prior to Uprising 1.4 many of us veteran heavies had noticed something "off" about the HMG. Several threads and support tickets were created, and a video was eventually made (linked in original thread below) before it was decided that, indeed, the HMG was not operating as intended. Thread with Video My thread in Feedback The HMG is back to operating exactly like in the video, the only difference being it has a new Reticule. Honestly, the new reticule just pisses me off more when bunny hopping, uberstrafing, speed tanked Mercs are dancing in a hail of HMG bullets, but take absolutely no damage unless the tiny, barely visible dot in the center touches the target, lighting an orange crosshair. Did you really think nobody would notice? "The true measure of a shinobi is not how he lives, but how he dies." *- The Toad Sage*

Not to say I always noticed it but I did notice it once or twice. Of course, more games played and I didn't bother to check again. So the HMG has become the blaster? Will you be making a video about this?

If I had the capabilities, I would definitely film and upload it. I will be monitoring this in my game sessions today.

All I really want is for CCP to decide what they want the HMG to be: A sniper accurate Ultra High DPS Short - Mid Range Weapon OR A Very inaccurate Ultra High RoF Short - Mid Range Bullet Hose that only does its full amount of DPS in Point Blank Range It just simply cant be both. It can't look like one and act like the other. If I am doing my full DPS in the center, fix the animations to match. Don't show me a bunch of bullets spraying all around the target if they don't and never will do damage to anything, its confusing. Fix the reticule too, while you're at it, it should look like a combination of the Forge Gun and Lazor Rifle reticules (orange crosshairs appearing as they are now would be perfect on this. If I am spraying my full DPS in a cone the size of my targeting reticule (as I always thought the HMG was supposed to do) then please, whatever you did on or after 1.4 to fix this please do it again.

Furthermore, If I can get close enough to anyone with my HMG to shoot them with it, while they are wielding a RR or CR or ScrR or SR or any of the other various and sundry Light infantry weapons which are more than capable of cutting down even the most Brick tanked Heavy from 70 - 90 m away, then you, good sir, deserve to get shredded to bits.

CR can only do that at proto, and thats at the minimum range listed ScR would be good if it didn't require 6 overheats to take a sentinel down at that range SR can't kill heavies.

You're trying to argue with me, and I'm giving counterexamples about why you are wrong. If there really is a reticle problem, fix it. Ill have to test though. Currently the only weapon that needs a reticle rework is the SG. At Ops V, it doesn't even fill most of the reticle with the spread. I think the reduced spread is good, as it allows you to land more shots on target, but it needs to be toned down or the reticle reduced to compensate. ^^That is how you make a thread for something like this. Good job though including the video, though i believe it is irrelevant now. If you capture another, Im sure people would love to see it. "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms.

If you're taking six overheats to kill with a ScR you're doing it wrong, Amarr assault or no. SR has no issues killing heavies. The problem is usually finding one willing to stay still long enough. But the odds of the heavy coming to get you are slim to none, so you're totally safe. It would seem like wisdom, but for the warning in my heart... CCP BLOWOUT FOR CPM1

Its derailing because you are just talking about how its so easy to use (insinuating anyone who uses the HMG has no skill) just like you did in your thread. You're more than entitled to your opinions, as am I to mine, this thread was never about "does the HMG kill too easy" or your butthurt over getting shredded by Heavies. This thread was about the previous problem with the HMG that was fully acknowledged by CCP, fixed, then reskinned and reimplemented for whatever reason. Your counter examples are bogus anyway. I have Proficiency 2 in ScrR and Heavies are no problem. SR (Sniper Rifles) Kill Heavies all day long dude! Do you even look at the kill feed. LOL Are you just trolling me? CR ok yea, you're right, not so much, but bring it in to 60 m and you have a melted heavy. The AR is also quite effective at stripping Heavies of flesh, though not quite so quickly at 70 m, but I did say "other...light infantry weapons...", leaving others free to add in their own favorite weapon for outranging the HMG.

Thanks! Not sure if you noticed, but as I suspected, no target info is displayed until the center dot of the reticule is touching the target. Then begins to fade after the center of the reticule leaves the target, though the "spray cone" outline ring still incorporates the Depot.

That's the problem with having auto aim off. You can be aiming at the same spot you would with auto aim only you'll miss have your shots because there's no bullet magnatism. The game should be designed and play tested with auto aim off until it feels right and aim assist should only make small movements to the crosshair with no changes to the hit detection system. Dispersion and kick mean nothing if aim assist makes the guns always find the target even if the crosshair is not even touching the enemy sometimes. We'd probably need a client side update and a complete rework of how guns and aim assist behave and I only hope they're changing it up for legion. Edit: Ninja'd by Gavrilo

What you are talking about indeed happens. I played some matches today and yes, the little almost invisible dot has to be on target for the damage to register. Case in point, a mercenary hid behind a shoulder high wall. The ring of the reticule turned red when I acquired target, yet when firing, he received no damage. I expected a lil bit of damage to register because of projectile spread but none happened. When making sure the dot placed on his head, I noticed the spread still missed him only this time, I watched the trace round go directly into the dot and grant me a head shot kill. I wish could record it. I really need to invest in the capabilities anyway. This is something worth discussing. Is this due to the stun/slowdown effect that was used for better hit detection that was removed? I would like to get a dev's attention on this.

I still would like to see the reticule changed, and the animations for the dispersion toned down a bit. @ Gav, you were right, though, if you let aim assist track for you it makes a huge difference in the amount of rounds that land on its target.

Honestly, the new reticule just pisses me off more when bunny hopping, uberstrafing, speed tanked Mercs are dancing in a hail of HMG bullets, but take absolutely no damage unless the tiny, barely visible dot in the center touches the target, lighting an orange crosshair. Did you really think nobody would notice? I agree. Another issue is when you take damage its like your feet is welded to the ground which makes it even harder to track and hit a moving target.
