I went Ambush mostly for last 3x SP event and got killed by a FG maybe once or twice a day, with many FGs in the field.

FGs can touch you, we've got a dedicated FG people and they explode murder taxis by a dozen each match.

Stop trolling and get some gun skills maybe?




BS. Make an alt, skill FG and record this.

I did use forgegun in this build. Have you? No, you just think you know how it works.



It just hit me that I'm arguing in a troll thread and will stop now. Have fun, children.

This how the Forge Gun will get nerfed:

-1500 damage for the proto. Assault gets 1400 damage and Breach 1700. How a gun has more damage than a cannon is beyond me. Only in Dust 514.

-0.5 splash radius. Yep no more infantry killing. This in an AV weapon and will only be useful at destroying tanks.

-Optimal range reduced to 100m. No more roof sniping. Dropships can breathe a bit more with one less annoying AV harassing their ass. Sniping is for snipers and this gun doesn't even have ADS. It's clearly meant for "mid range" tank destruction.

inb4 fatties say Forge Gun is fine.

Forge gun are fine, i don't use them, seldom die to them, they are a niche weapon and OP you are full of ****

Why on earth do people sign off or add signatures to their forum posts.

It's ridiculous.

I thought their niche was AV? But they're better at killing infantry!

I demand the sp back i put in flaylock if its nerft, i hope ccp wil come with another sp reset. Because if you nerf stuff now its ridiculous.how the hell you going to build a good character if ccp keep changing ****. Wasted sp yet again.

Look at damage markers and people not taking damage from grenades, i think thats a bit more important.

Flaylocks are over powered. They will be nerfed, and no you wont get your skill points back.

dmg markers are a hell of a lot better this patch.

@OP ... leave the FG's alone, theres are changes coming for av as it is, we dont need you giving the dev's bad ideas

FG damage are fine. I'll only agree with a way too big range. The absolute range isnt the problem in itself, it's the damage falloff. FG projectile should lose power way faster. Let's be honest, tower FG sniping is nothing fun nor good.

Damage markers are better but not good enough, some just dont take damage from an grenade exploding next to them.
And they should not nerf weapons, instead you design another weapon to counter that weapon, like a gun or what ever in a real war gets nerft. No it doesnt

All I want is for militia forge guns to be removed, If I get killed by advanced and proto forges in one hit so be it, I don't like my proto suit to be 1 shotted by a 500 ISK gun...

Been killed by forge noobs, don't need to spec to know their hitbox is too big.

Forge players should have to aim like the rest of us (well except flaylock and MD players), not point in general direction, click, then win.

oh no we have mice... releases snakes...

I hear mouse traps work pretty good.

an AV weapon going 20/0 in a game mode where free LAV spam is rampant. sounds like a step in the right direction

FG damage are fine. I'll only agree with a way too big range. The absolute range isnt the problem in itself, it's the damage falloff. FG projectile should lose power way faster. Let's be honest, tower FG sniping is nothing fun nor good.

Also, multiple kills from destroying full vehicles would inflate their kill count.

there is no argument that will ever work against av or infantry, its the infantry that get their wants and needs catered to in this game, have you noticed that hardly anything that's been implemented so far has been suggested and begged by the infantry players?

the rest of us are just minorities that CCP doesn't care about.

How about:

Forge -90% damage to infantry and advertised face-value damage to vehicles.


Only problem is that heavy noobs will all just run back to their HMG and not do any AV at all, which is what they were designed for. Thus the assaults and logis will have to make up for their slack and run AV themselves, which is what they weren't designed for.

Wtf is up with all the hate for the forge gun lately? If you manage to hit my bouncy ass then you deserve the kill. I play Gallente stacking armour so I'm slower than most, and I've been killed by a forge gun twice in the past few weeks, and I logged at least 20 hours in the last week alone...

Like somebody has already said, if you're so sure about it being OP go and try it. If you can go 15/0 with the forge gun then I'll personally bake you some f'ing cookies. In fact, if you go 15/0 with anything I'll bake you the cookies.

you die a lot to them while being infantry? your niche must be being bad at this game, they are so easy to kill when you CQC them, come on stop dying and get better instead of qqing

For you guys info, I drive a logistics LAV. I'm not affected by Forge Guns in any way since they can never hit me. But I can see them in the killfeed. It gets more kills than weapons that are supposed to kill infantry, like the laser and scrambler rifle. Just play ambush Manus Peak vs some top corps you'll see many Forge Gunners there going 20/0.
