Re: R99 Is Broken - With Video

Spoiler
 

Are you new to Apex? There is no drop off on any of the guns if I'm not mistaken. Maybe the charge rifle? Can't remember. But otherwise there Never has been. It's a design choice by the developers. If you think you've seen otherwise, that's just the result of shooting Gibraltar, Caustic, or the LIMBS of a character. 

Why some worthless 10 second clip of you in firing range, & not a clip of you losing to this r9 at "50 meters" like you say? Despite using a still OP gun, in the G7? G7 absolutely dominates an R9 at that range

I know I'm coming off a little toxic & I'm sorry, but you have no place claiming a gun is "broken" while somehow believing that the L-Star needs a buff, & that the Spitfire is the most OP gun in the game. Literally none of those 3 things are true

    He's a new player.

    The only weapons with damage fall off is Charge Rifle, Havoc Select Fire and that is it.

    I will say that SMGs lose their 1.5x Headshot Multiplier at 39+ meters. This means any SMG weapon that does headshots at under 38 meters will get the headshot multiplier. Anything over 39+ meters will result in a body shot even if it was in the head.

    @decimation92 Because I play on PC right now. If this were on my PS4 then yes you would have footage but PC doesn't auto record things so yeah. I went to firing range to figure out how the he!! I lost when I hit my shots. But dps says says R99 will definitely win if the shots hit. R99 with purple mag, stock and barrel stabilizer is very accurate in the right hands at that range. I was also wounded so had maybe about 123 hp left which he took out no problem.

    Also, L-Star needs a slight buff, you prolly never read the thread. Secondly, I never said the spitfire was the most OP gun in the game. I was simply comparing that gun to the L-Star in reasoning out why I think the L-Star needs a slight buff if the L-Star is supposed to be an LMG.

    And yes, I have noticed the only guns with damage fall off is charge rifle and select fire (I made a thread about that) but that wasn't the point of this thread.

    There are many people saying "nerf the R99" which I disagree with. The guns need to be balanced for what they are. An SMG is a close range combat gun, therefore it should be just that.

    @Leo_the_Lion25 Im not really new. I just never posted on here until I finally got fed up with it and figured I could place my voice on a public forum - which was heard when the G7 was moved to AR class which I think was the best move. Also, headshots past 38m with an SMG do not lose their multiplier.
