Should the EPG Stay or Go

Remove that ridiculous weapon! Its the most annoying weapon ever and every other player has one as its way too overpowered. 

Will this weapon for losers be removed today? Because I'm already lost in all this.

@Blekerodo 

I rarely see the weapon in use. In fact it is not all that good due to its slow rate of fire, projectile speed etc. 

If you are getting killed by it often maybe you need to rethink what you are doing wrong, positioning, game sense etc. 

Also EA does take into account player feedback however this needs to be honest feedback that is constructive with well justified reasons and information.

Just complaining with ambiguous statements  "Will this weapon for losers be removed today?" is not going to help anyone and is generally a put off. 

In my opinion, these weapons should be removed. He can mess up fights too much.

It is much easier to win with this weapon 1v3 than with other weapons.

This weapon does not rely on any aiming skills. You shoot closely at the floor or wall, even if someone is hiding, and the opponent still takes a lot of damage. This weapon reminds me of someone who can't handle basic weapons. The problem is that it's way too strong.

Additionally, you can push yourself and enemies away, something no other weapon can do.

From my own experience, I know that when you play against a team that has EPG, you are at a much greater disadvantage than when both teams do not have EPG.

As I mentioned earlier, this weapon changes too much and is too powerful compared to the "skills" you need to be able to kill easily with it. It reminds me of a weapon for a 7-year-old who holds a mouse in his hand for the first time. All this to help him kill someone in such a brazen way.

I fully agree.

I do not use it all to much (barely) because it is a very situational weapon.

If my opponents are spread out moving and playing off angles, the weapon is too slow, you might get lucky and kill one or maybe get some splash damage. 

If my opponents are unaware of me and crouched huddled in a corner, then yeah, it will crush them but then so will a grenade and or any other weapon.

The EPG does in fact take some skill and practice to use, unless your opponents are "running" around like the dummies in the firing range. 

@Asmodeus566 Did you create this topic to satisfy your ego or what is its purpose? You said in your first post that you were in favor of leaving the EPG in the game and why. Now everyone who supports your "thesis" will you tell him how much you agree with him? Just let others speak and let others express their opinion. Collect opinions from many people, because it's not about you convincing yourself that "everything is OK".

I completely disagree with your opinion, but I won't comment on it because everyone may have a different one. This is not the purpose of this topic.

@Blekerodo 

You do not have to have the same opinion as me.

In fact it is great that you do not.

We do have to treat each other fairly, even if we disagree with one another.

I can thank anyone I want for agreeing and or disagreeing with me.

I am not stopping anyone from expressing their opinion on this topic or stopping them from speaking.

I did not create this topic to satisfy my ego but rather to actually discuss whether or not the EPG should stay or go and the merits of both points as far as game play etc concerning this weapon.

The Apex Forum is a community for discussion and feedback about the game, not a one off sounding board. 

Thank you for your valuable insight and reply.

I'd very much like to see it stay. I've about ten or so kills with it, but have yet to be killed by it. It has a distinct audio signal so as soon as I hear it I know to get to cover.

Some of us old schoolers will remember the one-shot-kill kraber (harder to use but impossible to escape from) so it's a nice return to a very powerful weapon.

I always pick it up as a Ballistic but then again I have two other weapons, but in a couple of games I've run around with two of them. It's also really fun when Ballistic pops his ult as the ammo becomes infinite.

I've noticed its spawn rate has increased dramatically in the past week or so. In fact in one game one of my TMs practically got one on drop.
