EA Nerf Wingman pls
Wingman is always OP in these seasons. High damage, no damage falloff and suitable for all range combat. Wingman is just a PISTOL, so please at least add the damage falloff like other guns. And in...

@HLNorsemane The problem is that Wingman has too much potential power to fight for all situation. Each weapon has its advantages and disadvantages to fight in different range, such as sniper rifles had a tough time to fight in close-range battle. Although wingman is not the best, it can still able to win a fight in any combat, especially for the medium to long range battle, if you and the enemy have similar skills. If there exists an weapon that allows everyone dominate others, then this gun is broken, not OP as it breaks the game balance.
Surely using wingman needs skills, and it is hard to land a headshot. But why only wingman does not have a damage falloff, not re-45 or even the joke Mozambique? We cannot deny that we should award the skilled players, however it is also NOT FAIR to award only some of the players that using specific guns, not the other players that also practice hard.

@Xx__Miku831__xX It is absolutely fair. These players you refer to probably spends like 8 hours every day playing this. Why shouldn't they woop the butts of the casuals who can only get an hour or 2 or 3 in? I don't know how many times I got to say this, but the gun is not the problem, it is players that has too much time on their hands (the players make the guns, not the other way around). It is these players that needs "a nerf". The school kiddos if you will, the folks that doesn't have a family or a job to cater to or much responsibilities at all. The peeps whose job is to stream and steamroll.
ALL guns requires mastering. And IMO wingman is the hardest to master. Also ANY gun that can shoot a bit of a distance can handle ANY fight. You know how many wingman users I have downed at close, medium and far range with G7's, Tripple-Take's, Hemlok's, R301 and R99? Tons of them, TONS. I kill far more wingman users than there are wingman users killing me. And I do this using the guns mentioned. My fave combo is either Hemmie/Tripple-Take or G7/Mastiff. I literally cannot use the Wingman for crap, I find it to be the absolute hardest gun out there to do well with. When I die, wingman has little to do with it. When I die, it is because I ran into better player(s) and got outplayed.

- @HLNorsemane You can still spend 8 hours to practice re-45 or mozambique for long range and yet their damage are still limited due to the damage falloff system. It is still hard for them to land a headshot from far distance.
I said it is fair to reward for those good players but it is unfair to only reward SOME (not all) good players. I hope this can help you understand my idea.@Xx__Miku831__xXLike said earlier. Wingman has insanely slow projectile speed and a very steep trajectory so if you can land a hit with it, you deserve to get the damage dealt. There are guns out there far better for the sniping job that shoots faster and further making them far, FAR easier to land shots with. And no, you are contradicting yourself when you say you understand that it is fair to reward good players cause you are effectively trying to take a reward away with this post.
I am actually gonna turn this question around.. Why is it unfair for wingman users to have no damage fall off at long ranges when the wingman is as hard to snipe with as it is compared to other guns that was designed for sniping, and that does so a lot better as they are far more consistent in terms of landing shots due to vastly faster and accurate projectiles?
"You can still spend 8 hours to practice re-45 or mozambique for long range and yet their damage are still limited due to the damage falloff system. It is still hard for them to land a headshot from far distance." Why.. Why bring up guns nobody uses? Why those 2, why the 2 lowest class guns? Are you purposely just trying to * me off?- @HLNorsemane That shows that wingman is not supposed to fight for long range. You cannot say that since sniper rifles are hard to fight in close combats, then we should increase the damage when someone lands a headshot within several metres. It is a joke as sniper rifles definitely have a tough time against short range targets. Hence, wingman should have less ability to fight long range, and we should not compensate them with no damage reduction on long range.
The damage falloff system prevents player to deal so much damage from a long distance, it should be applied to all guns in the game (except sniper rifles as it is their only function to hit targets from long distance.).
The last question, why re-45 or mozambique. As AS and LMG is capable for long-ranged battle, so it is useless to type as an example. The actual meaning of these examples is they all having a tough time to fight in long-ranged combat, but only wingman does not receive a damage falloff for all pistols and SMGs.
