- @Cro_Pittt How would your wingman nerf look like? Return it to 5 bullets then bring down the damage to 40-42?
@Cheese9Man Isn't there a way to nerf the long range damage and keep the same for close range? If not then just a slight decrease for damage, maybe by 2-4.🤔
@Cro_PitttI've been saying this for a bit now. It isn't even algs teams. Everyone seems to be using it. It's not the 45 body shots that make the difference for me, it's the 80 something headshots with large mag size. The other day I ran one, got in trouble close range facing a person with a car pulled my wingman and double headshot the person to win a fight I shouldn't have won.
And yeah the range is an issue too. No need for a sniper or AR with that thing.
As I like to say,
all the other weapons need a buff
- @Cro_Pittt I don’t know man, nerfing the last viable weapon that needs actual skill is not really the way to go I think. It in fact should outperform the 301 for example, else why take the risk when you can just beam people ezmode with 301 ?
@matzesingtIt isn't a high skill gun now and here is why: Top level players that care about max rank and ALGS use the meta guns which are the easiest to use relative to damage. All of them using wingman means this is the gun they find easiest to use to inflict bigger damage. ALGS players using it over the r301 speaks to this.
As kel said maybe the issue really is that all other guns have been lowered to less useful.- PsyhiX693 years agoSeasoned Ace
35 dmg per shot, slightly slower rate of fire.
- @Cro_Pittt why nerfinggggg, its in a great place now, its basically amazing, and its really easy to get 2k+ dmg pg using it, only nerf which id be ok is, removing booster as 11 bullets can wipe whole team sometimes :D
- @hayhor Actually a wrong assumption, they play the best weapons and not the easiest.
I really hope you dont mean that r301 is harder to play than wingman lol - @RevMainPls No I didn't say that at all. I'll repeat this again. The wingman inflicts bigger damage relative to ease of use compared to the 301.
Watching hours and hours of algs this weekend I was laughing. It used to be teams would run snipers to wear teams down and level their evo shields. But guess what- They all ran wingman this weekend because they do 80 something damage at 200 meters and fire much master with bigger mags and when close you get that strafe. Why carry a sniper anymore at all is my new motto.
