Is anyone else having serious issues with the Mass Driver?
This is the most bugged weapon in the game! I'll tell you what, create a new weapon in the next build called the My Lil' Pony Driver that shoots marshmallows full of love and happiness. I'll still kill more people with that than this current Mass Driver.
The detonation ratio of the projectiles I shoot is beyond the joke. I decided to count them in my last match because I was SURE I was getting less than half the detonations to the shots. Guess how many I got after emptying an entire gun? Two........BLOODY TWO!!!! I got slaughtered in that game due to the pathetic bugs in this gun.
I'm sorry CCP...........actually, you know what? I'm not sorry CCP.........fix this bloody gun! NOW. I used to love using this thing, but now I don't know what to do. I've spent so much SP on skilling this weapon and it has been a complete waste. And it can't be attributed to lag because my Mass Driver using Corp mates from the US have been reporting a similar performance and they do not experience lag like we do in Australia.
And while I'm on my rant and bringing up lag, PLEASE do something about your netcode. I thought our Pacific worries were over when you brought in the Asia servers. What the hell happened to them? I realise this is a more than somewhat troublesome issue to fix, but please do something for us people on the other half of the globe. We are a smaller lot, but we are just as desperate to play this game when it IS playable.
Lastly, there seems to be an issue with Grenade HP. I'm only using Locus Grenades, but 3 times in the same match tonight I landed a LG next to an enemy and it did nothing to their Shields or Armour. I don't know how often this happens to the general population, but I have experienced this numerous times before and I thought I better bring this to your attention.

Not if you only get a couple of detonations out of them.....
But yes, more to shoot would be nice if they fix the issues. |

That's good to hear, Wolf. It's obviously an issue across the board.
@SoLJae: Yeah, actually, come to think of it I only landed the one direct hit with the Mass in that match. An instant kill too. Although there doesn't seem to be a detonation when it hits them directly. Not that explosion animations is my problem here. If opponents were still copping splash damage from Non-Visible detonations then I wouldn't of had a cry about it. But these Non-detonations result in 0 damage, leaving me wide open. And I know these projectiles were landing right next to the enemies, so they should have copped something. |

Yeah, it's good news all around for the radius, and obviously they know about the detonation glitch. But a few more rounds would be helpful as well. I don't know if we need the 6 round clip, since 3 shots can be pretty devastating to an opponent when they actually work. But especially on large open maps you burn thru rounds like an HMG! So yeah, 20-24 rounds seems fair I reckon!
As far as the small clip goes, I'm gonna work on my Rapid Reload like crazy after I get my Mass to Lvl 5. You get caught out too many times with that slow gun. |

Can't say i've tried the Breach variant, but it should be given something above the rest due to its slower ROF.
What is the drop off for the MD range anyway? Cos I've seen them thrown at MASSIVE lengths. |

I'm gonna try it out tonight with the new hot-fix. Hopefully we see some changes. |

Probably not the right thread to post these suggestions, Akira.

Maybe you guys can help us out. Are the some specific conditions that make Mass Driver rounds/grenades start to disappear more than usual? Has anyone found a reliable way to reproduce the issue? Perhaps a location on a map or bad network conditions?
Conditions are hard to pinpoint, Nothin. I mostly experience it at mid to long range, and especially out in the sand.
But that is not to say that I don't experience it around buildings, or structures, even at close range. Heck, they disappeared twice into an LAV I was taking down, so absent detonations don't seem to have a physical trigger from my end of things. |
