Is the Barret balanced?

[darkangel]

is far from perfect i mean it has a LOT OF BINK WITSH  SUCKS i mean if u put bink on a sniper u soulf put bink at  ruger or autos (went u get shot) is so unfair u know i my selft im a barret user so i get upset cause a noob dont stop spraying in a 1vs1 so i cant get the shot, i mean ffs is a antitank sniper that thign should be SUPER hard to bink, by the other hand ruger dont have enougt bink sames as altmost all autos so is up to u i think is unfair as  hell that rett is not a match for autos, of course i`ve defeted a couple of auto guys users but is cause i point black them or get clo/mid range. opinions on this !

Its called balance, why the hell would they make the Rett less binked or bink more guns. You just seem to be throwing a 11 year old hissy fit over your favorite gun actually being slightly hard to use. I just cannot think why you would actually think a Rett should kill an auto. So my opinion is: Stop commenting in this forum you provide no helpful posts they are all useless rants on guns you don't like, or you want a super Rett. The Rett has enough power to be used efficiently so stop whining.

(Sorry for the flame its just a senseless post he made >_>)

Omg ... Nice "necro-posting"...
And nice whining about your fav weapon. Brt isn't supposed to kill any auto easily... that's how this game is designed, and this is (warning: may be hard to understand for 10 year old whining retard) balance
"itst sou unfeir ofmggf nob sprayr binkd meeehhh" - your post a bit shortened. -.-'

(Sorry for the flame its just a senseless post he made >_>)

What? Sorry? Sorry about what? Giving arguments for him to shut up?... Imho it's ok. Better way to explain something to such g(u/a)y.

Well, judging from your level of English literacy I am guessing you are under the age of 13... or possibly just an uneducated dropout. Or maybe you do know how to use English properly, you just feel as if you are above such a level of intelligence. Sticking it to the man, eh?

This contradicts your next quote... you say it's easy as hell but "1 hit weapons are for real pros who has a perfect aim so lmao". Furthermore, calling him a noob only accomplishes... well, nothing, really. You can insult people... using bland, idiotic, and completely overused retorts? I'm impressed.

and for how u are talking i guess ur a auto user so ...

If you had actually paid any attention to Rai-Dei's post, you would have noticed his signature, which shows a pair of Desert Eagles. Your pretentious attitude is not accomplishing anything except demonstrate to me that you are inept in terms of communication.

im a good rett user many ppl know that but i get upset went some kido spray blind just to bink posibles campers or snipers on the move is just anoying,

A lot of people can actually am properly with autos, such as myself or SDFilm with the Minimi. Blind spray is something different entirely.

[darkangel]

wow forums full of retards ...lol  i try  to make make the rett a lill better so it can stand autos in a not camping way, im agree with the bink at long range is cool  but the bink close and med range is just...puff ,changeing subjet all desert users i know spray as hell cause the desert bullets travel long and dont lose much of its power so it dont matter if is a semi auto spray can be done with that thigs too, for me desert are for ppl who dont have enough aim to kill with ruger and want more space for errors so LMAO!!

[Ziem]

wow forums full of retards

Wow stop posting then, it will be one retard less.

TEH PWEZOR SECKRET!!1! : 1-hit>semi>auto>1-hit. The magic thing, weapon balance, is to (AMAIZING) balance the weapons! Balance <> "omfg make my weapon more powerful i wanna pwn noobs"
...

"blablahblah lolwutf so nub icant kil teh nubz omfggfg". "all weps suxc xcept minee!!!11!". "im sopr0 adn u r al nubs" - your posts are like this.

look im retarded so LMAO!!

Lock please, as this is going to nowhere.

[darkangel]

u just done get the point do you? but well what can i spec from an auto sprayer user ...no skills 1 SHOTS WEAPONS=SKILLS CAUSE U NEED TO HAVE A RLY GOOD AIM TO HIT THAT OR A REALLY GOOD SECONDARY WEAPON TO KILL really fast, autos.semi=more room for mistakes so i found them below the power of the rett or m79, anyways i just want to make the barrett a lill more  competitive against retts

[cunchy]

The barret can be binked easily for BALANCE PURPOSES. No Bink = Everyone Rets. And the only freaking way to beat an awesome sniper is to BINK them. What you've said in various posts is that BINKING snipers is NOOBISH, and it is clearly NOT.

[sc00t3r]

yea...if anything the barret is fine as it is...we need sum form of tweaking 2 the m79...it just to easy to use...we need bink..or u need to b crounch/prone to use it(as in ttw) the barret is fine bc it is easy to overcome w/ automatics..bt i have a hard time finding a weapon to counter-balance the m79..if their aim is good enough..they can just kill u wherever u are.

Its very easy to counter an m79 user (even if theyre good). Usually you can fake them out or such, but usually you try to stay as far away as possible BUT not so far that you can't shoot at them. You can also try to use the terrain for cover.

Also, I've heard that the barret isnt going to get tweaked much in 1.5, but idk

sc00t3r - m79_is_balanced_its_just_overused.

I rotfled, thx very much ^^
...So all those sctfl owners are just noobs because they use autos ;( so sad ;(

1hits - pure skillzzz, yeah, thats why most ppl on pubs play m79 or brt...

[jerich]

I love 1 hit weapons and I find them balanced equally to the relationship of the other weapons. I do wish that the barrett was still in its 1.3.1 version. I think rather than messing with the balance every version, they should work more on just fixing bugs or adding new Soldat maps that can be used in leagues.

[sc00t3r]

no its not balanced..(in my opinion)...and how does somthing bieng over used have anything to do with its balance...the barret is balanced bc it has a tremendous bink..bt the m79 will give u the same shot every time...and advanced players can kill very easily when they have good aim with it...im just saying that it needs sum kind of restriction like the barret got...

and i guess i just suk at this game then bc i have a hard time faking out a skilled m79 user lol

[Chariot]

no its not balanced..(in my opinion)

the barret is balanced

...

and advanced players can kill very easily when they have good aim with it

That applies to EVERY gun.

[sc00t3r]

..hmm...it does doesnt it ...lol bt i c the most complaints 4 the m79..and i here lots of ppl agree that the barret is fine. so...no1 agrees w/ me that the m79 needs sumn to make just a bit more difficult to use? lol...im not tryin to make a big deal out of it though..just c'n if enough ppl would agree w/ me to add sum restrictions ..(although this could lead to more adjustments and tweaking ...so i might just haf to suk it up!)
0 yea sry..when i said it wasnt balanced i was talkin about the m79

"But in the hands of people who are good with it, it sucks the fun out of the game.  It simply is not fun to get repeatedly shot with a bullet that travels a million miles an hour and kills you instantly."

Decided not to read all 5 pages of posts...so forgive me if I've repeated anything.

First off, the poll seems to point to the consent of the majority on the subject matter of the Barrett being well-balanced.

From what I saw in the first page - and I hope Blah's argument hasn't changed since then - I can only say that this quote (see above) highlights the effectiveness of the Barrett in the right hands (or the wrong hands of a camper). This argument can be said for ANY gun. What if you met an extreme minigun pro? The new argument would be that the minigun needed a longer startup time, less bullets, etc. cause it was causing so much bink and preventing any other player from killing the wielder.

A player who can wield his weapon of choice better than all the other players will certainly "suck the fun" out of any match. It is simply not fun to die.

I personally advocate the "aggressive" sniping techniques and despise camping while using the Barrett. I would actually push for taking the scope out. But, I like the zoom primarily for recon and watching from a distance (useful when waiting to cap).

Blah, it sounds like you've been a victim of a camping barrett-wielder. The way you describe being shot while they are scoped in makes it seem like it.

And, I actually like the startup time for the barrett. It lets me lead on the target and cancel the shot if I'm quick enough.

[darkangel]

agree noobinabox

IMO barret should not able to fire unless prone or crouch like the law (maybe it should be a secondary since it's really an anti-tank gun ). But other than that it is balanced.

OMFG CAN U SAY CAMPERS EVERYWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
