Okay so I have personally by experience noticed a huge trend in forge gun usage lately, but hey I completely understand who doesn't like one hit kill weapons? I suggest a little tweaking on them to balance things out because that, coupled with shotguns, mass drivers, and snipers lately is breaking balance so here's my thought.
drop the forge gun damage from 1200hp to 600
Ammo capacity to 4 rounds and reduce the splash radius to about 2m
And finally place a gravity or distance range on them cause right now they rival if not surpass the effective range of sniper rifles.
Please feel free to comment. |

Correction, I have used them and personally seen them oneshot tanks aswwell as any vehicles also enough to know stat wise they outdo even tank weaponry. Minus the SOONtm artillery and laser rifles but this should not happen, otherwise there is no reason to have vehicles of any kind. The last five matches I had was spawn in to a forgegun dropping me.. respawn run for a moment to see a forge beam come flying 100+ meters away from the location I was spawned at previously only to go right back to respawning ten feet away again, see 5 red arrows raining down on me so I retreated waited a couple seconds dropped a LAV hoped in at that moment, forgegun obliterates the vehicle in one shot. I think it's a very affective weapon but most certainly abusable. |

I've been around for 3 builds, two of which I sat out of it because of no squad menu release and just couldn't take the annoyance of blocky textures and teleporting from massive lag caused by bad code. So essentially I was here awhile, just never bothered to post on forums till this build because this is the only one I felt was worth putting time testing in. But ya forge guns were worse 2 builds ago so were swarm launchers but forge guns still outkill anything on the field. Regardless of slow speed, all it takes is someone semi coherent in the shooter genre to break and abuse them. It happens, hell it happened in BF3 BC2 RSV2 Socom series. If a loophole is there it is exploitable. |
