I exclusively only use Mass Drivers, and I consider myself VERY skilled with them. It's the only weapon I've ever played for 3 years straight, dual wield.
Occasionally I blow myself up with them- and I think that's MORE THAN FAIR, as in public battles, they do 0 damage to my team, and that's much more important.
C'mon buddy, there needs to be drawback, or else who would use a shotgun? It's fine just as is.
I really like that it's difficult to use- it weeds out players like you. Not everyone's meant to be a stud with it.
What I would like to see is,
REMOTE DETONATED MASS DRIVERS- The round doesn't explode until you press the fire button a second time.
PROS:
Can cause mass driver splash damage without requiring projectile impact.
CONS:
No damage is done at all unless the trigger is pressed a second time after the grenade has been launched. Direct hits are just duds, causing no to very little damage, like 30pts or less.
That would really encourage precise timing and interesting aiming, basically adding a new dynamic to an old weapon without making it op.
Thoughts?
Is that all you brought? How disappointing. I was hoping for a challenge.

Also everybody whining about the myos, is pathetic, the much bigger problem is stacked kinetics, since that is breaking hit detection big time, and nooobody seems to complain... you are just so butch with your fast suits are ya?
I didn't mean modifying the existing MD- I love it exactly as is. I was suggesting adding an additional variant.

Mass drivers dont take skill to use
No skill to use?
What other weapon can you kill yourself with? What's the rate of fire on your weapon of choice? How's that scope working out for you?
-Exacty.
Now a team of jumping mass drivers all camping on top of a pipe= that's no skill.
Me taking you out with my md from a level field, or even a lower position than you, with no myo's- bring it.

Most of the time I'm able to tank a few MD rounds in order to kill anyone that tries to get close with less hp than I have, and MDs are great anti-scout weapons.
I agree with the myo abuse. I only ever use the mass driver. It's my ONLY weapon exclusively for 3 years now. I NEVER use jumpies. That's just cheap.
