The most powerful forge gun can do over 2000 damage, the user is also hard to find.

From the sounds of it, you're new, things will get better for you. However if you are a dropship pilot, you are forever doomed.
I'm not new, I've been here since when dropships ruled the sky's and forge guns could 2 shot with no impunity. What I hate about the forge gun is that the pilot has no warning. I was looking up forge gun stats when I found they can just one shot my dropship. One shot it with no warning. I,m always getting hit by forge guns a and I can never take down we're they shot from. They can one shot, no weapon should be able to one shot like that. Even when I use my ADS I can't one shot people. |

HE IS A HEAVY FAT MAN USING A WEAPON THAT GLOWS BRIGHT BLUE AND HE FIRES EXPLOSIVE SHOTS honestly...
Do you fly? Cuss if ya did you'd know that seeing ground units unless you are in firing range is next to impossible and by the time you see the blue glow the forge gunner has spotted you half a mile coming. You are also a bigger target and while you are jostling around trying to hit the forge gunner, the forge gunner or swarm missiles will hit you.
Personally if CCP got ride of the thing I'd be happy but if they want a powerful weapon like the forge gun fine, it just can't one shot anything period. |

This is what I get for pub busting with my assault forge gun tonight.
In dust, a shaky ass weapon with no zoom, chargeup, and guaranteed slow movement on the character himself is enough to induce crying. How would you guys ever have survived in Quake when that railgun required no chargeup, had a zoom, and the user could literally be flying through the air killing people instantly like a god ninja.
This generation of gamers is full of failure.
The forge gun can one shot my ADS with impunity. How much does a forge gun cost to a dropship? If you can buy it in bundles then it coast less. If I lose a dropship it takes 4, 5, or 6 games to get it back. Then when I go into another match and I take off I get one shoted. All the those games and time straight down the toilet in less then a minute with no warning at all, it's lopsided.
And no one get into the whole "vehicle turrets have unlimited ammo" true but we also can't one shot infantry. |

I'll say this, can you see and here a dropship coming and shoot at it before he see you, in fact is the dropship even facing you when unload a round into it? I highly doubt it. All dropship pilots can do when up against a forge gunner is to run because they have no make signature and we have to get with in HMG, assault rifle, and swarm launcher rand in order to even see any one. Not to mention how a dropship that is slow can speed up fast enough after getting hit to shake off the forge gun.
Face it the weapon is too strobe with no real drawbacks, if put into a one on one fight with Inflity the frogs gunner can just switch to there side arm |

No anymore it now use as an anti infantry weapon I'm a FG user, and I don't think that's entirely correct, at least not for me. When I play, my priorities are vehicles > infantry > installations. If there are no vehicles, you bet I'm gonna be smashing people with it. FGs are fine. Dropships just need a buff. If your tank gets taken out in 6 seconds like someone else said, you just have a weak tank. Good tanks take a while for me to destroy. LAVs still have a little too much HP imo, but the only ones that give me issues are LLAVs. In a game dominated by ARs, it's important to have other viable options.
The only thing I'm advocating for is the removal of all forge guns that can one shot for over 2000, as a dropship pilot 2000 is all my.
Also you forge gunners are in heavy suits which means taking you out once we've found you is a chore and aiming in third person in a dropship is a chore as well.
If they keep forge guns the way they are they need to be as weak to kill as a light assault or assault suit. Dropships risk getting one shooted, so should forge gunners. |
