Man no fair all the good points to defend the MD are already pointed out I got nothing to add now.

Guess I gotta get to the forums faster. lol

it doesn't help that the forums are aflame right now.

A rather disappointingly predictable litany of worthless garbage from the start of the thread to the end, demonstrating a complete lack of understanding of the concept of a combined arms game where the AR is not held up as the gold standard of win. This is also an admission of riding the comprehension failbus and QQing for the rest of our amusement.

Charge ISK for ammo.

There is literally no end to the amount of crap things that come out of your posts is there?

What difficulty do you speak of? Difficulty racking up kills? Of course there isn't. Infantry die a lot. In fact in EVE killing people is equally easy.

Winning the mission? No kidding Rex, all it takes is one organized 4 man squad and the pubstomping begins in earnest because most of the people act like little murderlemmings.

Racking up K/D ratio? well I don't give a flying crap about KD anyway. I concentrate on executing as many black colored dropsuits as I can on the field because each one costs the operator over 100k ISK. it's all about the tears. Oh and I do this in as cheap a fit as I can field just to be as insulting as possible.

I like DUST because it looks and feels like a battlefield, not a buncha retards running around in circles, jerking themselves off with assault rifles and doing the effing bunny hop everywhere they go because they think it's tactical.

Last line LOL I see the bunny hop **** all the time, u sir have made me cry with laughter u lil troll u

keep damage the same if its hits you. take down splash and lower fire rate.

To what level exactly have you skilled the weapon? Personally I believe until you hit proficiency in it you cannot give balanced statement on it.
I'm assuming you never tried 1v1 with an MD, which is is SUICIDE.
Nerf splash damage and radius? Last time I checked it was a CROWD CONTROL WEAPON, not a snowball launcher.

or maybe you could grow a sack and kill the guy spamming the md

The way I would fix mass drivers is to make the clip smaller and longer reloads. Then have a arming distance so that 0-10m the munition would not be armed. So you could get real close and counter that way. Then I would make the propulsion weaker so the shooter would have to aim high into the air to get distance.

Wow that would make them weaker than they were before chromosome.

easy to use.

I don't think it would make them weaker, just harder to use. They are usually called noob tubes because they are easy to use, not because they are powerful. A forge gun has a lot of power but you can not just shoot multiple rounds rapidly like a mass driver.

My main point would be the arming distance, with that there would be a very viable counter to the Mass Driver.

So the mass driver is not a grenade launcher? This is an actual question.

To me it seems all you have to do with a mass driver is shoot to the left, then the right, then the middle and death. But you all know best so you tell me.

Of course its a grenade launcher, I'm saying its not a "noob tube" because that term implies its easy when its not.

If my math isn't good enough for you, go get a friend, kill a bunch of people with your AR while your friend times you, then calculate the average speed for AR kills. After that, get a mass driver, do the same calculations, and compare.
Also take into account the range of the mass driver compared to the AR.

Try for yourself.
