CCP: "Well, we already have AV Grenades, Swarm Launchers, and have plans for other AV weaponry. What else do we need?"

CCP Intern: "How about a weapon that does massive damage to any type of vehicle, but can only be equipped by the hardest-to-kill suit?"

CCP: "Good idea! Will it be difficult to use?"

CCP Intern: "No, it shouldn't require much aim."

CCP: "Do you think it should be short-mid range to balance it's extreme damage?"

CCP Intern: "Nope, it has to be able to damage things from really long range. Dropships can't do anything; why should they be allowed to get off of the ground or fly around?"

CCP: "That's a good idea. We're going to make this weapon right away!"

CCP Intern: "And make sure those Dropships don't have any way to defend themselves either!"

CCP: "On it! "

I laughed when I read this because I assumed it was a joke. You're either a disgruntled infantry player or tanker that just got blown up. Saying FGs are easy to aim and heavy suits are the hardest to kill makes me wonder if you are experienced at all.

Forge guns are very very easy to use, and highly efficient at what they do.

They need falloff with their optimal tweaked back. I personally don't think ANY FG should let you hold the charge, that's the only reason the Assault forge is considered the "skilled" forge gun.

Dropships are indeed way too easy to kill with a FG and that's something that needs to be looked into (Dropships are pure risk and no reward thanks to railguns and forge guns), but I suggest you try them out for yourself before spewing drivel like "easy to use and requires no aim" or "can only be equipped on the hardest to kill dropsuit."

Believe you me, if we could equip a FG on a medium frame dropsuit and go all prototype Caldari Logi with FG, the tears would flow without end.

Yeah but the FG suit just sits somewhere and snipes, because you can sometimes hit it but it swallows blaster shots

They are going to add a change to it.

Persinally I think it should low damage up close and more damage as range increases but that's just me. It's harder to hit at range but you deal more damage the harder the shot.

Bam forge gun becomes a skill weapon. but no on ever listens to me :P
