Tell me OP, why do you use the AR in the first place? Because you want a challenge? No, because if that were the case you'd try to make the Plasma Cannon or Lasers work. No, you use it because it is the best gun for killing the enemy in the majority of situations.
Now the Flaylock (for the moment) is better at killing at certain situations (extreme close range combat). So they are using it for the exact same reason you use the AR, because they want to kill the enemy as quickly and efficiently as possible. Can you really fault them for that?
So please get off your high horse. You're not gimping yourself by using the AR over the flaylock, the AR is still the best gun in the game. |

Are you trying to say the FP isn't broken and people aren't just taking advantage of it?
Your words of had a lotmore impact if you weren't from a corp who spams the weapon as there ONLY weapon when it's a SIDE ARM. At least AR is a main slot weapon...
No, I'm not saying that at all. The Flaylock is pretty broken at the moment, and will most likely get a deserved nerf.
I just think it's silly to complain about the Flaylock as an AR user when the AR has long been the most dominant gun in the game. AR peeps use them because they are really good, exact same reason people use Flaylocks.
And I'm willing to bet that back when they too were 'broken', Broadway used a Duvolle Tac. But I don't fault him for it. If you're trying to win the game, why not use the best guns? |

Glad to say Teamplayers doesn't exploit them. I notice alot of LoI though.... well not sure anymore now that OH is gone but I have seen HS use them dual style.. Even a member in this thread talking about using them. In Regnyum's defense he is working on it. Meaning doesn't use them yet. You do have to fight fire with fire though. Taking on corps that all have FP is not fun believe me it's overly challenging and frustrating.
Oh come on, where were you people throwing down your TAR's in disgust, disparaging people for 'exploiting' its brokenness. You weren't doing that, you were probably using them just like everyone else. The Flaylock is no different, its just a weapon that is good at the moment and probably on the chopping block for a nerf. Calling it an 'exploit' is dumb, I'm just playing the game. |

Yea I used the duvolle tac..but a gun that shoots bullets is much different than a pistol that 3 hits people with 800+ eHP. I still had to aim lol...you act like all you had to do with the Tac was press r1 as fast as I could and I would get a kill no matter where my cursor was. Bullets don't have splash damage lol. With a flaylock all you have to do is shoot in the general direction at the enemies feet and you do a ton of damage...see the difference?
Well I guess this is just where we disagree. I don't see the difference. The TAR would kill you in 5-6 shots, which would hit you in the span of one second, and it could hit you almost any range (a little worse in CQC). That sounds very similar to the flaylock situation, just working at different effective ranges. And yes, the flaylock is a very CQC weapon. People will probably only ever get those 3 shot insta kills with a 15m or so range. If they manage to kill you from further than that, well then that took some skill (even to shoot someone's feet, like you mention) because you need to judge the enemy's movement vs. the projectile flight time.
So no, I really don't see the difference at all. |
