Wingman Nerf?

Great job at making the Wingman in to a f****** Mozambique 2.0. Wingman is now completely useless unless you're a cheater with aimbot. I have tried it a couple of games now and it can't hit anything in the crosshair unless it rolls the RNG dice to actually hit in the middle. I wanted a Wingman nerf so hard but you made the weapon in to a garbage RNG weapon. You made the Wingman slower which was needed but you also fiddled around with accuracy, which you shouldn't have done, you should have reduced attack speed and max rounds in the magazine. The only problem with Wingman was the magazine, the gun would have been fine if it had max 6 bullets instead of 12 bullets, 12 bullets made the weapon in to a one man army weapon.

  • You guys who kept raging for a nerf should of known this would happen a nerf is almost NEVER just enough. Yes the wingman aim is garbage it almost never even goes close to where its suppose too and in this game the movement speed is high it is a lot less fun of a gun now I rather dual weild spit fires and maybe keep a peace keeper or a sniper

    People who wanted a nerf gave many ideas for fixes, but the developers didn't listen and nerfed the wrong thing by making the accuracy in to a joke. All they had to do was to remove the magazine slot and maybe increase time between bullets and increase the reload time and voila! The weapon would still have been strong but not too strong.

  • Wingman is still god tier, you just need to hold right mouse button now. ADS doesn't slow you down with this gun. IMO it still needs a nerf, damage fall off, meaning it does less damage from far away. ATM it's better than a sniper rifle.

  • @Jeeha0When we were saying do not nerf the weapons, it is too early to nerf weapons, focus more on cheaters and content, people were saying we want to stomp noobs with wingman. Now wingman is borderline useless.You cannot use it mid fight (switch mid fight to wingman to finish off target), you cannot use it close range, you cannot use it mid range and you cannot use long range. You can only use it to initiate a fight with an unsuspected stationary target, which happens like what? 1% of the times you get into a fight? Borderline useless weapon.

    When will people learn to be patient?

    All they had to do is reduce magazine size and reduce slightly by 1 bullets the ROF. Instead they knee jerked and went bananas on accuracy, ROF etc.

    No its not the gun cant even hit someone 5 feet away I spam or even click the gun crosshair directly on someone and its still missing 70% of the time, complete trash at least with scoped snipers you can aim and hit every shot

    the hell you talking man ,  this gun needs more nurf , especially this thing SHOULD NOT have that hop up + mag.  

    no idea why every high level idiot use  this gun all the time. 

  • I actually think the wingman is still good. The reduced fire rate has stopped people hip hosing with it and stops me from just taking that little extra time needed o line up a shot before i nail it. Before i'd just aim spam it all over the place and hit nothing.
