I think Sledge also mentioned something about nerfing infectors/cloak, but I can't be assed to listen to it again. I just remembered shotguns are getting the hammer, since I was overcome with such a surge of schadenfreude I could barely think straight for a few minutes.Quote:

Who cares if Shotguns are only good in close range when you are invisible?
I say add a new scope type that detects cloaked players if within X yards of you while aimed.
Was it from yesterdays feed when he was talking about the DLC? Might go look for a link if so..Quote:

Not a bad idea.. Like a heat sensor or infrared vision etc..Quote:

But just using a crappier gun with syphon was really strong when/if it procs.
Also.. My fire fragger would be a lot less useful if people would just roll the flames out... I get so many after dead kills when they could of saved themselves.
Never PvP'd, but does Cloak make you completely invisible or just "Predator" invisible, like how it does for Dark Matter snipers? Also, do how about just putting cloaked players up on the mini-map/radar? It doesn't give away their exact position, but lets other people know there's a cloaked person in the general vicinity.
A few things:Quote:

Bio nades / anything fire / infectors are really good for breaking people out of stealth
You can still physically run into people that are cloaked.. I've gotten several kills like this.. by just being aware. So if you bump something when nothing is there.. pull the trigger.. throw a nade.. something..
Take a gamble.. shoot randomly behind you sometimes, especially if you were just engaged in combat...
Nerf or nothing right?Quote:

Shock rifle from that game for example... The primary just shot a straight beam that did moderate damage.. The secondary shot a bubble that was large and moved a bit slower that did a bit more damage (if I remember right)... But that wasn't the point of it... If you shot the bubble out first then shot it with the straight beam it caused a huge explosion that could generally one shot people (not always) if caught right.
Flak Cannon: Primary just shot shrapnel and could be spammed but did small damage unless they bounced it off the floor into your face a few times but generally easily avoided... However, the secondary fire did a lot more damage but moved much slower.. and you know you were dead when you could see a small ball with a smiley face on it coming at your face.
STOP THE NERFING HAVE SOME FUN...
It’s a better alternative than screwing over the majority of the game that is..PVE based. I have nothing against pvp itself, I rather enjoy it but like other posters here I’m tired of ‘hardcore’ pvpers coming into every game and demanding everything be changed to suit them.Quote:
