Totally agree, they need to fix this gun somehow because there is ZERO reason to use it in its current form. It can get kills, but it's simply outclassed by too many other weapons. |

Don't...even at proto level you should rather go with the MD. Just some friendly advice from someone who already wasted the SP |

Maybe we will get a little more splash, or they could increase the reload skill by 1 or 2 percent.
Not sure how they can improve it...but imo splash damage should go up and bullet flight time needs to be faster. As it stands, you can't use it at range because of bullet flight time. And yeah, reload speed is ridiculous. If you miss in CQC, you're essentially dead. So it's useless at range against anything but stationary targets (so a forgegun would be better anyway) and useless up close because after you fire a single shot you're dead unless you hit them in the face...which won't happen unless they stand still.
I like the concept behind it (which is why I skilled into it), but execution wise they simply failed at making it viable.
It just doesn't fill any particular niche...it's always outclassed by other guns.
MD is better at area denial and allows you to still stand a chance if you miss a shot.
Forge gun is better at range.

It isn't supposed to be used against infantry, the only thing that should be increased is the direct damage and give it a shorter charge and reload time.
NO! Due to bullet travel time it's totally unusable against AV.... |
