People can kill me INSTANTLY....I decide to play normal, my weapons do very little damage, but their weapons still instakill.
I'm saying unnerf the other weapons.... 1 kill weapons will be more balanced if other weapons have some more power to them.

Best Admin: jrgp, he's like the forum mom and a pet dog rolled into one.
The general, and the beta crew's consensus, along with statistics of weapon usage, state that 1-hit killers are highly "whorable" and overused. You denying that Tai? I suppose you deny the holocaust too?You, you're worse than hitler
*sigh* What solution can there be to weapons that are fair? We don't need to confiscate by making the autos stronger because they're already strong enough if you know how to use them, or aim. The Deagles, Ruger, and Spas reward aim more than the ability to spray and in turn quicker kills, while the other autos (HK, AK, Steyr, and Minimi) can spray and in turn cause potential bink. The M79 can only do so much if you keep a safe distance from the player. Like it or not, you can find that in small maps like Arena 2 if you're smart. It's small, but it's not a 2X2 box! The Barrets and Knives are as tough of weapons than you'll ever face that are a 1-shot kill. The Barret is binkable, and the knife requires aim. You have to use more strategy, not more power.
Sure, "pros" know how to use tactics and every weapon effectively, but the vast majority of the players don't. [SNIP]So, I ask you, what is the goal?

Take a look at the first page of the "M79 and Barret Unfair?" discussion. Do a quick count of how many people are for and against it.

[SNIP]So, I ask you, what is the goal?The same goal as any game: Easy to learn, difficult to master. If you make the weapons ideal for the newbies, there will be no incentive to get better. After all, everyone is at the same level and will remain there.Think about chess. The pieces are the same for every player, just as the weapons in Soldat are the same for every player. It's experience and technique that matters. Sure, the majority of people are relatively bad at chess. Should pieces be removed or strategies disallowed, simply to make things "best" for the new players? Of course not. And the same holds true for Soldat.

As it is now, I have a practicallly perfect record in 1v1. Guess what I use? The barrett. The barret is the end-all weapon for 1v1. If you have two equally experienced players, and one has barret, and the other is using anything else.. The barrett wins. Why?
You might also misunderstand my motives, I don't care that m79 is overused as much at the barrett is overpowered, and I think the current balance too slow.

You said they said was it overpowered. 6th_account said that the M79 should be changed because it was overused. I was saying that it made little difference whether or not the M79 was overused, since most people don't think it's too strong.Quote from: Zamorak on March 28, 2007, 11:46:54 amsnipBecause in 1v1, almost every map becomes a large map. And the Barret excels in large maps. Is this because it's a long range weapon? Not necessarily. This is true because as map size increases, the chance that you'll encounter enemies near each other decreases. This gives you a chance to reload. The purpose of the long shot delay is to give the user a disadvantage immediately after firing. Ideally, in a 1v1 game, you should be able to get to the Barreter before he can fire. But with most maps, you spawn quite a distance from the Barreter, so he's reloaded by the time you get to him. Try 1v1 on a map like Arena2. See if you get the same results.Quote from: Zamorak on March 28, 2007, 11:46:54 amsnipNo, that's not it. My response was about weapons in general; the M79 was never mentioned.

My response was about weapons in general; the M79 was never mentioned.I think you missed my point.I did not mean to ask why the barrett is overpowered in 1v1, I said it is. The "why?" was rhetorical. I answered the why pretty much in the next paragraph.

Hello, I'm new here .
I would rather say that it's an automatic weapons problem - they are too weak and give one-hit-killers too much time to fire back.
If you have two equally experienced players, and one has barret, and the other is using anything else.. The barrett wins.
One and only solution for 1 hit kill weaponsListening?Might want to write this down!Got a pen?No I can wait....Ok ready?Here goes...Learn to move around them! Once you do they will miss that one shot can you have up to 3 seconds to unload your clip and nades upon the poor soul. Take it from a m79er if you know how to move you can kill any one hit wonder in any server.
Dude you can't dodge a sniper bullet,
you can't dodge a m79 either.
You think you're faster than a bullet, you think you can turn faster and change directions faster than someone can adjust with their mouse?
You cannot call a weapon overpowered, just because you can't handle, neither avoid it. Every weapon has is advantages and disadvantages, learn to use those instead of *****ing. What do you wanna do? Nerf the Barrett so it's a 2-hit-kill? What slick **** would that be. No seriousely, the current balance on 1-Hit-Kills is very okay.
