The rate of fire coupled with the insanely high alpha makes this weapon currently too strong to be free. In any given game right now IGÇÖm seeing a huge portion of players using nothing but the Militia shotgun (SG). The gun currently kills most suits in 1 hit. This 1 hit kill isnGÇÖt restricted to militia suits either. This makes the game boring because it is simply not viable or efficient to use suits that go splat after 1 hit. The suits that can take more than one hit are so ungodly expensive that it just isnGÇÖt cost effective to use to simply kill a guy in a militia fit. This also means more and more people are going to stay put in suits that are free giving the shot gun an even easier time. Part of the problem with it is that you have scouts with high speed bunny hopping around to close gaps then simply putting a single shot in for the kill. The gap is also not that big of one. IGÇÖve had many cases of shot gun killing at ranges where it shouldnGÇÖt have been doing full alpha damage. Many maps offer such close quarter combat that the shot gun is simply over powering the terrain. It sucks to die to one hit from a gun running circles and jumping like a rabbit around you. The gun needs it alpha cut by 50% and have the rate of fire halved, and ranged halved, for something that is free. Start with that and work your way to something that is balanced currently it is making the incentive to move to other gear mote and pointless.
Militia Grenades, again it is a case of a weapon that does too much damage for being free.
Militia Sniper Rifle, again another case of weapon killing in one shot from INSANE distances for free. Yes this one requires a little more skill to use, and some vest skill points, but it is kills other militia fits in one hit.
This isnGÇÖt a whine I want people to discuss this and post constructive conversational posts.
If you see someone with a shotgun, and approaching him at a distance of 3 meters, you fully deserve to die. Sometimes I use a shotgun, and what's you are telling about it, it's just BS. Militia shotgun kill with 1 hit scouts on close range(only and just) all other need to get at least 2 hit's(weaponry on lvl5, shotgun operation on lvl3, 1xdmg mod 3%). If you need to kill scout with shotgun, and you are intelligent guy, I'm sure you will find technique to do it from safe distant - if not then you are deserve to die.
there is no sense in your topick, if militia weapons are so strong and free, then why you don't have ISK to kill players that using it? This is just stupid. |
