Agreed. The Flatline currently has no place in the game.
Every other gun is viable in its own way with their own attachments. The Flatline however is just a strange gun to come across. It's an AR but you can only give it an extended mag, stock, and scope, and once you have all three, you realize you're better off just giving the attachments to someone else.
Early game its useful if the enemy has a Moz and cant aim or if they don't have a gun and are just running away.
I'd even consider slapping a bay at the end of it and having it do increased melee damage lmao anything to get me from trading it with the first gun I see
- 6 years ago@iBlockHead Its place for me so far - if I can score a mag for it especially - is hipfire. It's better than at least half the guns for hipfire strafing people and cqb with the dmg buff it had. If you're decent at hipfiring for a spread of chest/headshots it is absolutely brutal to come up against. I did better with it when someone explained to me that I should think of it like an Eva8 in how I use it.
- 6 years ago@Anlbrd hipfire at me while I actually aim at your head or body, whos dying faster?
Saying its better than half the guns for hipfiring is a flat out lie. I would get better results firing from the hip if I was using any other gun aside from snipers.
The only place it currently has is staying on the floor where you found it or picking it up to hold your 3 extra attachments like the Alt before season 2.- 6 years ago
@iBlockHeadDepends on the range to be honest mate. You're likely to score exactly the amount of headshots you need to win with the Flatline in its current form by hipfiring at most of the ranges you'll find in something like a Skulltown drop. Whilst being able to keep your run speed so people can't get around the corner and away from you easily.
Its still not a gun I'll carry through endgame, but early game and for close range there's absolutely nothing wrong with it.Opinions are like a-holes though, eh? 🙂
