Smart Weapons

Hey so,

Quick suggestion.

Currently there is a aimbot problem.

Why dont you just bring back the smart pistol?

Hell make a line of smart guns.

This allows more casual players to take part,

Remove alot of the demand for aimbots in the first place.

Balance it so that it takes longer to lock on, or does less dps, or cant headshot.

This bridges the gap between players and also makes the game accessible to those with handicaps like my hubby and myself.

I know alot of people hated smart guns, and alot of people adored them.

But its a far better solution then people diving in and two shotting nonstop with peacekeepers.

Balance ideas~

Smart pistol, Shotgun, SMG. Reduced damage by like half or more of normal pistol, place a shorter range on the lock on, (though a faster lock on overall to make it fluid)

Assault rifle. Again reduced damage but also make the zone it locks far smaller in size, not the range, but the lockzone.

Sniper. Same as the assault rifle, but to counter this people could just nonstop corner duck to break the lock. Make the lock a bit faster, and in exchange you could make it do even less damage against shields or not able to headshot.

This is my take on a way to bridge the gap between players while also dealing a blow to hackers.

  • People would still use aimbot with strong weapon rathen than aimbot weapon with low dmg, you kinda missed the point they don't give a * about rules.
  • Even if it doesnt fix aimbot users, it doesnt change the fact it will help close the gap between players though.

    Smart pistol was the WORST aspect of Titanfall.  Even worse than the * servers they ran the game on.  Learn to aim yourself, don't cry for a computer to do it for you.

  • Rather than add a new weapon, what about adding a smart gun hop-up (gold instead of purple, like the Devotion one) for the P2020? Would give that gun an actual use, and the DPS on it (even if they made it always headshot with 100% accuracy) would still be subpar compared to just blazing someone down with accurate bodyshots with a stronger weapon. A headshot from the P2020 only deals as much damage as a bodyshot from the Hemlock after all.

    In short: Would give those less skilled in the game a weapon to use, but someone good would still do better just using a stronger gun. Also lets players actually use the P2020 without completely crippling themselves.
