8213 wrote:So, you might have seen my last topic about the SCR.
I decided to spec into it, and give it a try. To say that thing is not OP, would be a lie and a half. There are only 2 drawbacks to using it, the over heat(which is not really a balance to to weapon that can kill in one shot) and the overheat animation stall.
The animation stall is the one I want to bring up. When my Scrambler overheats, it goes into the animation where it glows red and cools down before it can be used again. During that time I can't do anything but wait for the gun to cool off. I try to throw a grenade, switch to my secondary, pull out a repair tool, etc; nothing happens. I have to sit and wait for the animation to complete before I can do anything.
What I want to know is, is this built into the game, or is it something CCP overlooked like so many things they already have. I can understand that if the weapon overheats, you probably don't want to sling it over your shoulder when its glowing red.Part of me can accept that, but its a game that doesn't have any emphasis on realism or physics, and I can't give CCP that much credit.
Is it a glitch that I can't switch out to anything while I'm in the cool down phase, or is it intentional?
It's intentional.
BTW OP is a faggot. |
