Hover Goat 3000 Improvements
Hello 🙂 I'd like to recommend a few tiny improvements for the Goat.
PopCap has done a very good job creating an offense/support hybrid, by slightly lowering his average killing potential compare...

Your K/D is so high because you've probably haven't played more than 1 or 2 hours with him, or you are just camping. K/D doesn't prove killing potential. It proves survivability, and/or camping.
K/D can prove killing potential and i assure you i don't camp. It's kinda impossible to camp in this game anyways considering that your icon is visible to the whole team when someone spots you. The only time i "camp" is when i'm standing in the capture zones during turf take over which is what you're suppose to do anyways.
The goat is my favorite zombie character in the game and his kill potential is very high since he is very accurate with a great fire rate. I have my doubts about the other guy having a 17 k/d average with him but i can understand what he's saying when he says the goat doesn't have a below average kill potential. I tend to finish most games highly positive with him like in these screens though the two i posted were my highest.
Also the beam that cancels out reloading also effects the scientist and that has been a bug since the first game which they do really need to fix. It's very annoying when you're trying to buff teams during heavy fire fights and you reload gets canceled/rest when trying to support the team. This doesn't effect the sunflower though.
No. K/D only proves survivability. Cacti generally get higher K/Ds than Peashooters, but their killing potential is actually the same or lower. It's the nature of the class, since they naturally stay away from most dangers.
I've played the Goat for 5+ hours and I have a K/D of 3.73. This doesn't prove anything. His killing potential is still slightly lower than most high tier zombie characters. You can get many kills, but you would have gotten more with other characters.
The Scientist's reload probably gets cancelled to avoid reloading while placing a heal station during ambushes. The Scientist needs to be penalized if he runs out of ammo while he's trying to attack you at close range, otherwise he would be too cheap. I think they should make an exception only for his heal beam.
