As a vehicle pilot, both assault dropship pilot and a tanker, I think Forge Guns have a distinct advantage over vehicles. However, the problem lies more that there is proto forge guns against standard vehicles. I think the splash damage to kill infantry is a problem that should be addressed, but the current fg vs vehicle is what I would expect, given the lack of proto vehicles. I think they should release proto vehicles that can take a few forge gun hits before popping, or remove proto forge guns TEMPORARILY until we get proto vehicles. Proto weaponry shouldn't be balanced against standard defenses, that's unfair. |

Its a proto weapon. It should be able to take out std vehicles. and do know how hard it is to kill someone with splash damage with the forge gun? You have to do direct hits if not you're fked. Please don't talk with out even knowing the weapon itself. I myself know most weaponry in the game because I got most of them lvl 3+ so again it isnt op. I'll break it down Barney-style.
A standard assault suit will lose to a proto assault suit, given equal player skill. However, this is fair, because the standard suit has the ability to skill into the proto suit should he so choose to spend his sp on it. As a vehicle operator, I have no proto vehicles with which to compete against your proto forge gun, regardless of how much sp I invest in the various skills. Therefore, yes, it is unfair. |
