Respawn thinking about reducing movement while using LMG?

Question

It's so funny cause they literally created the problem themselves, typical Respawn, always fights problems by creating soon-to-be problems, instead of working out a good nerf. Rampage was unnecessary in the first place.

I don't care how much you aimless noobs saying "oooh but LMG is supposed to be strong!" yeah, unless there's no recoil in this game.

I just can't wait until there's a legend who got an airplane jet as their ultimate to compensate for how big and boring storm point are.

@Cheese9Man of course I’m against it, not a fan of rampage ever, like I said, Respawn just creating problems themselves, they want us to fight spitfire with rampage but somehow they put spitfire in CP. And now we have this…

@bosourd I think balancing guns is a tricky thing in general. You have to keep in mind very very small adjustments can mean the difference between the gun being OP or unusable.

The different weapons classes make balancing guns even more complex. Now toss in legend abilities which can entirely change the fight dynamic.

The Devo can beat the Rampage but the Devo requires a turbo charger to be viable option.

@bosourd Wait so are you pro or against the idea of limiting movement while ADSing with the LMG?

If the LMG nerf were to happen, this is another nerf for Rampart. They definitely need to rework her passive.

LMG is already slowed on ads, not very hard to hit someone adsing rampage to be honest. They already nerfed the headshot with it, no more headshots above 67 meters. This cant be good intel, right now I feel like the rampage is in a fairly good state as long as rampart isnt holding it, then its a brutal instrument of continous supression. When spitfire comes back to the ground shes going to be insane.

To be honest spitfire in its current state is 10 times as dangerous as rampage just to comment on that one 🙂 Devotion however is quite meh compared to the heavy lmgs, it needs to get back into the CP to have some glory again.

I think the devo lowers your movement/strafe speed more compared to the other LMGs as well. Can someone confirm this? 😅
