Stop whining, start exploring and adapting!

It's pathetic, how fast you guys start whining about the new map, instead of accepting the fact, that changes can be a good thing. The dev's already confirmed, to bring back King's Canyon back at so...

@DarthValtrexThat's just Murphy's law for ya. When I was looking for a charged rifle, I ran over 3+ scouts in every game before i got one. When I wanted to try the new longbow, I found 2 charged rifles...

Although so far my impression that G7 is the most common, charged rifle and longbow rare and curiously longbow even seems rarer than the charged (but really not enough games played (~30) to tell for sure). Why I find it weird is that the charged rifle is clearly the #1 long range weapon now. Although, I've never seen 3 in a single game so far, so arming a full team with them is difficult - so it's definitely rare enough.

From automatic weapons, flatline seems to be the most common. And it's also probably the best midrange weapon atm, too, after the 301 damage nerf.

@Biochemikas The Hemlock got a weird buff/nerf as well.
I haven't use it in season 3 yet but it was probably my favourite gun post patch so I'm interested to see what it's like now.
Has anyone used it yet ? I played about 20 games last night but either didn't find a Hemlock or was too busy trying out other weapons lol.

@xx_Dante2k_xxI've seen a lot of them, but I've also found more flatlines and I just can't take a hemlok over flatline XD (it's probably the best AR atm). The yellow hopup on flatline felt slow though. Didn't try using it on enemies though, since I had a charged rifle in that game.

@Biochemikas Yellow hop up on the Flatline is supposed be a more mid-ranged weapon and in single shot. Try putting a 2-4x scope on it and using it at mid range. I have not had much of an opportunity to do it yet though, so I don't know if it's legit or not. If you're running that set up w/ a sniper rifle you'll want to keep distance between you and the enemy. If you go into closer engagements just pop the hop up off and carry it inventory. When I had it I kept the hop off unless I had a chance to use it at mid range.

Since this map has some really wide open areas I always carry some type of sniper rifle. I also keep 2 scopes on me.. The 4x-8x and a mid range of some type.Typically keep the mid range on the gun, with the 4x-8x in my inventory incase it's required.
