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...

@Xx__Miku831__xX Unless the enemy is standing still, it would be fairly difficult to snipe with the Wingman for multiple reasons.
1. ADS drift. Without a stock, the Wingman will have noticeable drift when you aim at long ranges.
2. Lack of proper sights. The highest scope you can put on it is 2x, which is still difficult to properly use at long ranges,
3. Drop. Without a good scope, the bullet will likely drop a lot, which would be difficult to compensate for.
Basically, just don't stand still and you should be good.

@Sir_Named Yet ALL sniper rifles, ARs receive a LARGE movement limitation when using ADS, where the wingman does not. So yeah, you basically have no choice but to stand still.
The wingman is a sniper pistol. Period. Even players who aren't ace can still land a lot of shots. Just add damage fall off to it and it is fixed. Like why is that so hard?

Let's just agree to disagree, since we seem to be going in circles about this.my balance idea:
-Wingman should use sinper ammo instead of heavy ammo
-remove skullpiercer, but remain the headshot multiplier
-increase the recoil or the bullet drop or both (make it bigger than longbow's)
-make it able to use any scope(1x/2x/2x-4x/4x-8x/6x/4x-10x)
-reduce the rate of fire
-(maybe reduce ammo capacity from 5 to 4?)
Now, that is an interesting take. To be honest, the ammo type change would be nice/ worth a try, because one of the main reasons that you can't really use a sniper, is the fact that the sniper ammo stack is so small 16 bullets... also it would eliminate the wingman spam, and it would be harder to find ammo for it/ it would make Respawn change the stack size.
- @Sir_Named We go in circles because you think it is fine. Think about the different stats of each weapon at range. You literally are a sitting duck with an AR/SNIPER when going against a wingman. I mean, seriously, I bring counter arguments to your points on the gun, and you never answer them.
I am also not alone here. This is an issue that needs to be addressed. And the easiest way to fix it - add damage fall off. I like it as a close quarters high damage weapon. But the fact it is being used as a sniper pistol is stupid. You don't need accuracy for it. Like @Tired_Capybara said - "If you have 2 eyeballs, you can land shots".
When I meet someone with a wingamn at range, I stop fighting because I KNOW I will lose. I leave. It doesn't matter who it is. They can fire faster, do more damage, move faster, and reload faster. No matter my gun, I will lose (unless I have a wingman).- @SolitaryMassacre Well, yeah, I think it’s fine. I don’t really want to compromise on this, since I’ve already made a bunch of counterpoints.
But the Wingman has a lot of drop at sniping range, it only has up to 2x, so the only way it’d hit you at snipe range is if you stood still or they got lucky.
Giving up because you don’t have a Wingman is a bit dramatic.
But yeah, we’re just kind of going in circles.
