It would make forge gunners easier to spot by tankers, and also make forge gun snipers easier to spot for infantry. It wouldn't hurt the forge gun's stats at all, but would make it easier for vehicles and infantry to spot them, thereby making the forge gun harder to use without actually nerfing it.
On the other side of the aisle, it would also give forge gunners a better feeling of having actually fired something. When I fire a forge gun, the round flies away so fast that it almost feels like I'm firing off invisible rounds. A cool looking blue tracer would be awesome, maybe with some kind of static/electric effect crackling in the rounds wake.
On a side note, red forge rounds with a black center would look SOO freaking sweet! With black and red static sparking out the back of the round.... *drool*
Anyway, thoughts? Suggestions? Think you have a better color scheme for the forge rounds? Think it's a bad idea? Please explain your reasoning instead of tossing pointless insults.
agreed 100% but i think the red projectile with black sparks would look beast.
forge guns are essentially AV snipers but even snipers hav projectile trails which forge guns need. |

Forge guns dont need to be nerfed or buffed. Leave them as is. Obviously a TL;DR poster. THIS WORKS FOR BOTH SIDES. The tracer would allow the forge gunner to follow their shots better, so if they are off by a hair on a long ranged shot, the tracer would make the needed adjustment easier to see. This is neither a buff or a nerf, it's an addition. Does't the explosion give it away? I use a forge gun as my AV build and have no problems... is this an issue for a lot of people?
not really as the explosion looks basically same as AV nades explosion so with no tracer it looks as if your being av naded |

It would seem that having a tracer from a sniper is sensical, because the sniper can relocate rather quickly to avoid counter fire.
Having a fat suit be traced back creates a situation where you pop out, get one shot off and eat a tank round. Now I am sure that vehicle people would love it, but it wouldn't be balanced.
well considering forge guns hav greater range than blasters its difficult to hurt a forge gunner atits effective range, also at edge of blasters range does very little damage to a heavy, therefore its only possible to kill forge gunner at range with a rail gun which you dont get enough time to aim, charge and shoot in the time it takes heavy to pop behind cover, fire then hide as they recharge forge gun |
