R99 needs a nerf
R99 needs more of a nerf. Still the go to weapon for every person. It's boring playing the game and having the r99 be the only real viable weapon. Alao the heck is up with how accurate hip fire is ...
@NitromethaneAPHow can you say it has no contenders?
Lets do some comparison:
R99:
Has a body dps of 198
with a dmg of 11 dmg per bullet and a mag up to 27 bullets
Resulting into that you at best can maximum 1clip one person and that is something that even Aceu rarely gets done... The full dmg a clip can throw out is 297 (on body ofc no shots missed)
Flatline:
Has a Bodydps of 190
with a dmg of 19 each bullet and a mag up to 30 bullets
Resulting into you beeing able to easy fight off 2 people with 1 clip
The full dmg a clip can throw out is 570 (on body ofc no shots missed)
Both of theese weapons need 0.50secs for a nonarmortarget to kill and 1sec to kill a purple shield target...
We completely ignore now the fact that flatline outperforms the r99 massivly on range. I could bring up the same with r301 and its pretty similar to thoose two sitting at 189 dps or prowler with 195 dps
That beeing said you still have the eva and mastiff that both can easily compete and in situations outperform all thoose guns...
I think r99 has more play cuz it is easier to use than a flatline(recoil macro 😉 )Its hard to setup a macro for flatline due to its randomness in left and right spray,besides that it outperforms r99 in every aspect besides having 8 less dps
One more reason why people skip on flatline i think is cuz its a heavy gun and people would like to get their attachments for wingman asap
I remember in one of aceu´s streams he got asked whats better he said that they are equal but he is used to r99 and thats it.
Shroud called the flatline the best nondrop gun in the game aswell...
But since many of the high tier streamers are playing r99, you see everyone copy paste the use of it.People are lazy and just copy what others do istead of going into detail
