gun worse than any other gun.
« on: November 06, 2007, 02:09:40 pm »
There is one gun that is an awful choice for any situation, a gun that needs a boost, badly.


The MP5 is so sucktastic, that you are actually better off using a ruger than the mp5 in short-range.

I was playing a deathmatch, using a ruger and killed the guy with the mp5, then later he killed me with a ruger while I was using the mp5, both times we each had full health and no nades were used.

Almost any weapon would be better than the mp5 at close range, where the mp5 is supposed to excel.

A damage boost would be the easiest/best way to balance the weapon, it just does not have the damage to be a viable choice.

Ya, the MP5 has some tough competition, especially from the buffed Spas.

The Chainsaw: It's fun to do some crazy charges and maybe getting a few kills with quick moves, but the knife outclasses it in the more 'pro' games.

XM-214: It's still annoying, it's still innaccurate, and it's still damned unwieldly. But it's still pretty damned funny when used right. I.E.: Point-blank riddling.
To sum up my point: We had a multipage debate about toilet padding. (Putting TP in the water so you don't get splashed.)
And we still don't know if dead guys can keep a stiffy.

He is talking about the minigun(XM-214 is the technical name) I agree also...it is useless...now most people just use it to annoy people with spray and FPS drop/lag.
And as the lyrics go in the United State's national anthem: "America, f**k YEAH!".

With a thread name like "gun worse than any other gun.", the subject could be somewhat open.

Yes the mp5 could do with a buff, and the mini gun is just hopeless.

Right now the mp5 has no spot, close range spas or ruger, mid range steyr ruger, long range barrett ruger.

Mp5 pwns as it is. XM214 needs to have less startup time. Trust me, the damage is enough.

I think the mp5 is a excellent weapon if in the right hands, it just takes far more patience to become good with and better moveacc skills.....

he is just making the point that a long range gun out damages a close range gun at close range.

... if it can hit them.

The point is that a short range gun sucks balls even in its own element. we both stood still removing everything but the damage on each gun, and the mp5 lost, twice.

How about you try, you know, moving around then?

You know, like how you would do in a regular game of Soldat?

What happens when you both stand still and unload on each other means absolutely nothing in terms of weapon balance, because that is not how the game is played.

Think hard about what I said in both my posts, what I quoted in the first one and then again what you said in response. I shouldn't have to explain it.

It might be that I've done most of my playing on realistic servers, but I've never had a problem going up against a rugerer/rugertard with an MP5. Though, I'm a barrettard and rugertard myself, so I can predict the shot from both pretty well. Take that for what you will.

Still...in a straight duel, MP5 does feel a bit nerfed.
