Wow I use this weapon and I think its way overpowered.

Half a clip to take out most heavies.. nom nom nom

don't even get me started on creo weapons.
BAM! red haze of death. WTF?!?!?! someone hit me with a tank rail??
looks at upper right-"oh, creodron, WTF is that doing in a pub match!?!?

Well I can't speak for everyone, but I decided to concentrate my initial SP on Assault suits and ARs because that's what I'm most familiar with in other FPS games. I thought I'd get the rest of the weapons trained to one so I could play around with them and see what I like, but until I decide what to do next I keep going with a powerful AR setup. If there's a larger population of people thinking like me, it may just be that ARs seem overpowered because so many players have their AR skills trained way up over everything else...

Well it's painfully obvious that you've never used the Krin's Sin-11 or the GAR-21.

^ This.

It's not so much that the Gek is OP (which it certainly is not, as pointed out above) but it's the fact that the person using the Gek took a bit of time to spec into it, therefore they are more experienced with the game.

I personally am glad more players are taking out their Geks. I am getting tired of being insta-killed by militia and exile AR's, but I can appreciate being insta-killed by a Gek because I know the player is risking some ISK/Aur on their suit to use it.

The weapon flattening is pretty lame, there really isn't much reason to choose the Gek over standard, but it does make sense to go from standard to Duvoll (which is wrong). Needs to go back to 30-33-36.

Not true, a duvolle is good for 1 thing. When stacked with damage mods you can know how beastly you'll be with officer weapons and it reminds you why you need to spend the very next amount of SP you earn after getting the duvolle on proficiency and then wonder again why duvolles exist and be like gek or officer everything else is just dumb.

My douvolle is powered by all your tears.

Officer sniper will bring more tears

From your own corp mate Sleepy, now come to big daddy heavy with his officer HMG as I run from cover to cover getting closer to you >: )

I know how to counter snipers as a heavy. *Picks up a sniper rifle* How many shots does it take for this crap weapon to kill anything but heavies? Two? Sounds like fun :)

Ty for the compliment to either me or heavies btw lol

OMG this, this post is soooo right, gek is totally op.

Today I went against this kid at my viziams optimal and after at full heat, before I got his shields downed I was dead,

But but I have over 300 shield and 200 armor and I has my viziam at max heat....DAMN GEK.

Come to find out, kid was stacking damage mods for the mega bonus it gives, nearly 100 damage a shot so OP.

So this thread is moved to feedback? Well maybe they are finally going to nerf it then

I see more people in general discussion agreeing the geek is op

Amen to that. Thought it was stupid that they lowered the proto AR damage in the last go and raised the militia/base lvl versions. The thing people forget at the end of the day it doesn't matter what weapon someone is using, if they're better with it than you are with yours you're dead plain and simple. They all come and jump on here yelling op just because there are guys out there with good gun game that drop you with AR's.
