So. Yea. Noob tube. A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it.

People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. you must be one of the royalty whose opinions matter. so these "better" players with better opinion that would balance the game...these wouldnt be the cali logi AR users...TAR users? If you feel my opinions matter, it's because I use common sense.

History repeats itself... Has the mass driver ever done as much damage as the flaylock? Serious question, I've only ever played around with MD in the past for giggles. Also I know for damn sure the MD takes a more practiced hand to land your shots at range / without killing yourself up close. You're starting to get it. We're dealing with a weapon that deals damage proportionate to its clip size/ammo capacity. MD in Chrome dealt so much damage because it had a limited clip size and terrible battlefield longevity. The only balancing factor for having such a large blast radius was the slow moving projectile and arcing trajectory. The FP has an even smaller clip size, barely any splash, and a short range yet people expect that little bastard to tickle or something.

O.o Why is that necessary? We're getting faster weapon switching in 1.2, so you effectively will have a 6 round burst if you decide to equip two, as I'm sure a number of people will / do. This thing instant kills scouts, and probably makes logis and assaults sad, though as a heavy I don't know that first hand. What I do know is I lure those stupid little rocket panzies into a cooked grenade if I don't randomly hear pop pop pop and die as I'm trying to waddle away or figure out how to turn in their general direction. You're forgetting weapons have better range and damage falloff in 1.2 as well.

That's a horrible philosophy because skilled players will start using it and just wreck the noobs trying to collect easy kills. We already have a light weapon for noobs, it's called an LAV. Why a pro would use any side arm besides a scrambler is beyond me. Not that they need a side arm anyway, a person whose good with an AR would wipe the floor the an FP player anywday. So, then why are they called noob tubes again? They're called noob tubes as a reference to the original noob tube in CoD, which was in essence a weapon used to balance that game for skill, making it an actual noob tube. Now when people see any explosive weapon in other games, they refer to it as a noob tube.

Oh no, but clearly this is illogical because vets can turn the Noobtubes against their rightful masters How often do you think people die to the FP outside of 30m?
