Who agrees with this statement?

Never seen anything like what you're talking about before. Make sure you're not playing in an aussie srver if you're from Europe or vice versa.

I rarly play soldat outside of gathers and CW. only when I want to train aim on some moving targets (pub).

Lag is SF was equal to that on Soldat. People rarely reach over 200 ping.

On SF? Are you kidding? Sometimes an entire team has 200+ ping. You make it to cover and BAM, the sniper you were evading kills you because he was lagging. Of if they use autos. They kill you with pathetically weak weapons before you can even react. And if they are using stronger guns? Forget it. Lag on SF makes the game broken. I've noticed some lag in soldat, but not a lot. At least the game is playable and the hit detection system is somewhat fair. I strongly disagree that lag is just as bad. Unless, as people said, you're playing on like an aussie server and youre from US/Europe.

I think it depends on the weapon mod, Since most of the commonly used servers are Modded now, And this thread appears to be based off Default guns. O.o

The weapon balance discussion is based of ONLY the Default weapons. Weapon mods are a completely separate issue.

Binking a Ruger? Well... it doesn't do much. Besides, in 1.5 it's most probably gonna be taken away.

Ruger is weak against speed actually. A good MP5 rush can easily grant you a kill against the Ruger (provided he did not notice you early enough). Aug can fight back against the Ruger with speed and accuracy and bullet speed. Minigun can actually, quite surprisingly, fight against the Ruger. Just make sure you are spraying towards the Ruger user so it pushes him off and hurts him with your strong DPS. However in the end it is still not practical since the minigun is a toy gun.

1-hitters stand a chance against every weapon - the only key is to shoot and hit every shot before anyone can get/shoot you.

DEs vs Ruger really depends on the situation, but I agree with Rai-Dei that generally, the Ruger-user would win.

You never know who will win, what if the ruger user was a total noob, and he was like "how teh hellz do you fire teh weapon?!", and then a DE user like Rai-Dei or Bitem comes along and shoots the living sh*t out of you.

Lets take it from that point of you.

This is the second time I've quoted you for truth.

Any weapon that can deal a 1-hit kill, I beleive should be considered "superior" if you want to talk about overpowered guns.

True, these weapons usually have amazing detriments like really high reload times, low ammo count, and such... but all these things matter very little if your aim is good enough. Anyone with a high enough accuracy can make a real monster out of themselves with any of these 1-hit kill weapons. Put one of these in their hands and they will DOMINATE in one-on-one matches.

The only real key to beating them here is superior numbers. Rush at 'em 2 or 3 at a time. 1-hit kill weapons have the drawback of not being very helpful against multiple rushers. These are the kinds of things you need FAST weapons for, like Autos.

not the gunner, its the internet connection xD

If you hate lag, don't play Gears of War or Frontlines, play BF:BC or Halo 3. Those games have the best networking I've ever seen.

i totally agree . A pro gunner would use from knife to chain from barret to hkmp5 and pwn everyone .Its not the gun , its the gunner
