GOL sniper: Bug or silent nerf ???
Hi, Since today's patch the GOL sniper doesn't one shot in uper chest anymore (any distance). Is it a bug or Dice just "forgive" this in the patch note ?
Forum Discussion
@l_Grand_Vizir_l GOL was able to one-shot kill anyone, anywhere on their body, within 50m since it was introduced - it shouldn't have been able to do that. This was probably another QA fail. I haven't tried the weapon since yesterday's update but I wouldn't be surprised if they corrected their QA fail.
I know how it worked... It was 49m by the way.
😉
BUT:
Going from 49m to nothing seems a very hard nerf, especially when other snipers still OS in the chest... And we have nothing about it in the patch note.
Soo two possibilities:
- Dice did it on purpose and just "forget" to tell us in the patch note.
- Dice failed and this is not intended... Wouldn't be the 1st time. They might have tried to reduce the distance and failed, or maybe they did nothing on purpose and we have a new bug...
Who knows actually? Dice?
I've seen nothing from devs about "it shouldn't have been able to do that" (doesn't mean they didn't say anything, i just can't find anything on this).
My point is, the NTW50 OS at farest distances (don't remeber, 149m i think), SWS10 and DXR1 OS at a less distance (19m) but have far more attachments and ammo types... I mean 49m was good but it was the advantage of this riffle compare to the 3 others.
Now GOL looks quite weak compare to others.
Soo i would like an answer from someone who really knows if it was done on purpose.
@EA_Atic Any help please ?
considering its high fire rate and muzzle velocity, the GOL magnum should definitely not have a One body shot kill range of 50 m....
@Metal_Daryl97Maybe it was hailing to the magnum rounds days?
Do you have the official stats for the gun like velocity?
