YMMD. Thanks for the laugh. You might be forgiven for not following the forums and how things are handled.
So first of all, the M5 MIGHT already only do half the damage from time to time. Or twice as much. But as the damage values are not shown (even though this has been requested several times and should be obvious anyway), nobody will notice.
Second of all, the more you request something, the less likely it becomes that it will be done.
Just two obvious examples:
- Everybody hates those cringe voice lines and >99% of the player base would be happy if those voice lines would simply be deleted (or at muted). It is obvious that Dice could EASILY do this. They are still in.
- The most often requested feature of persistent servers with a proper map rotation and a server browser was requested several times (e.g. in this thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Concrete-and-simple-to-implement-proposal-that-would-improve/m-p/11336398#M92408). We know they can easily implement it. We know they know that this is maybe the highest priority feature when it comes to large parts of the community. It is still not in.
So, learn your lesson and don't ask for something to be implemented -- this seems to be the only way that it might find its way into the May update (expected to be released mid to late June).
- UP_LordPlumber4 years agoSeasoned Ace@DuaneDibbley I don't really understand where you are going. I'm not asking to implement something, or change something. Nor I'm saying that M5's damage is consistent. My example was if it did hit, but did NO DAMAGE at all. Now that would make people mad.
All I'm asking is to fix the gadget that simply doesn't work at all. I'm not asking to make it from scratch, or change the way it should behave. I just need it to work the way the developers intended. Yet for some reason they don't care.- Trokey664 years agoSeasoned Ace@UP_LordPlumber Can't say I've noticed that and I've been using the Med Pen a lot recently. I'll keep an eye out.
And as to the above, it is another example of why I'm nowhere near as active as I was, there is a core of posters that will turn any thread into an echo chamber of the same regurgitated complaints (yes, some are valid!).- UP_LordPlumber4 years agoSeasoned Ace@Trokey66It did get a bit better, but still not 100%. I've noticed that (For me) if it doesn't work, it won't work until the round ends. Then if it works the next game, it will work perfectly fine for that match. Hence why I'm playing more Falck with her healing pistol and running M5. You lose infinite ammo and armor compared to Angel, but you get M5 instead.
While heal pistol is better in every way comapred to med pen.
I also posted a video there of how it looks when it doesn't work. It was recorded yesterday.
