If a MD user has time to fire all 6 rounds at you, which takes over 6 seconds, what were you doing with your main weapon AND sidearm in the meantime???

It used to add camera shake back in beta, but even us massholes said that was OP.

Minus the Drops frame rate part, let's consider the others inflict blind, and inflict stun respectively and suddenly in RPG terms everything's nice and good for the support weapon.

The flinch relates to aiming, your feet aint broken. Get outta dodge. The thing is area denial. Of course you're going to die if you're still in the area.

If it adds flinch, can you catch it on camera and report it. That's not a feature the MD should have.

Try turning your settings down. As a guy who gets surrounded by explosions, (****ing grenade spam) I haven't noticed.

Until the AR nerf brigade gets wise and kills your ability to compete.

Hal AR 514. Hail king AR.

Lol Assault tears are coming from everywhere.
I can't wait till HMG's problems are fixed too. AR 514 is over.

I will complain about it just as soon as it starts to damage diversity. Currently, the AR is used to kill 10 times as much as Scrambler Rifles, so there's no need to complain that they're killing diversity when they aren't.

ARs are killing diversity.

QQ thread is full of tears and bad ideas.

Skill into EXO-5 (mass drivers level 3) and use it for at least a week then come back.

Now actually go do it.

It's been 16 pages and nobody has brought in hard numbers to prove that the MD is OP? 16 pages of QQers complaining about a weapon but instead of anything numerical, they all talked about trees and flowers. CCP already based the first MD nerf off of it being popular in the office, buffed and buffed it back up slightly because they were wrong. If this 16 page circle jerk causes the MD to get nerfed by ignorant players that don't understand the concept of area denial, all these doomsdayers trolling the forums are right because CCP will be catering to the lowest common denominator.

You can all continue your QQ now, I just wanted to point that out.

Can you put a numerical value to not hiding behind cover when someone is lobbing slow moving grenades at you?
How easy it is to make a tactical retreat to make a more indirect approach?

The problem is that the MD does something not many other weapons force you to do- change your strategy. Everyone wants to run around all willy-nilly in a conga line from objective to objective, mowing down everything in their path with their full auto plasma hoses. The MD forces you to go "Oh $h!t, I need to do something different!" But nobody wants to do anything different because they're used to running around on auto pilot. They hate the weapon because it forces them to play in a different way and they'll cry nerf until they won't have to. Everyone in this topic crying about a grenade launcher that works like a grenade launcher, trying to degrade its users, calling it a 6 round noob tube as a throwback to a balancing mechanic to CoD, it just shows that the MD is doing its job. Send me your hate, resentment, your fanmail... your anger only makes us massholes stronger because we're the game changer and will carry your ill will as a necessary burden.

PS: The explosion nerf in Black OPs 2 has actually made the real noob tube a viable, balanced weapon in grenadier loadouts. More any more players are calling it the pro pipe.

I'm starting to think you just have ekriphobia.
