I don't understand how the gun with one of the shortest ranges in the game gets critized for being able to win at close range.
If someone point blanks you, the next person with an auto will have a much easier time killing him, if he doesnt kill himself doing it.
Consider in your senerio the m79 misses, and you go right by him. What's the result? you have 0% damage, and he's probably near death. I'm sure that doesnt get factored in, because everyone has godlike aim with the m79 right?
From the beta changes, they are increasing m79 damage, so self damage should increase as well. It should decrease the sloppy point blank kills.
It doesnt need to change, the people that use them all the time need to change. Why is the m79 the only gun that needs all these strategies to avoid?

Why is the m79 the only gun that needs all these strategies to avoid?Every gun has strategies to avoid it. You're obviously just way too dense and stubborn to realize that despite FIFTEEN PAGES of people telling you otherwise. Instead of being a smart player, instead of striving to be a better player, you choose to whine... and whine... and whine... across some FIFTEEN PAGES of moaning and crying in an Internet forum. Every example you have brought up in this thread just show how poor your playing is -- you choose your weapons poorly, you don't approach enemies intelligently, and you just lack the skill to play well. You will never learn because, if after some FIFTEEN PAGES of whining you can't even begin to reconsider... "Hey, perhaps these dozens of people are right, and I am playing like a 'noob,'" then you would at least realize that your approach to the game is completely and totally wrong, and your arguments baseless to a fault.Do not think I am attempting to insult or offend you exactly, but your argument, again, over some FIFTEEN PAGES of whining, is beyond dense and stupid. You are the George W. Bush of Soldat. "It can't be me! The overwhelming majority of players must be wrong! Surely, for I am a '1337' player incapable of making poor decisions or dying at the hands of another... unless there is something wrong with the game balance! Eureka! That's it!"
okay well let's have a look. Because the players arent color coded by their weapons like in my example, It isn't very likely that I will know instantly that that guy was an m79er. He could have easily been handled if he were using an ak74 (which are both similar colored guns btw.)However let's revert back to the same situation. Suppose I did see he was an m79er, and decide to quickly make a turn around. Oops. That plan didnt work either. Didn't even hit him that time. You got any more elaborate plans? or is "playing smart" the only information you can give me?
-- you choose your weapons poorly,How are my weapon choices poor? Are you insinuating that the mp5 is a bad weapon choice and an m79 is not?
This is hilarious. This is why you fail. Any player just mindlessly charging into range deserves to die -- you're not playing smart, you walking into a player with a height advantage, and you're racing into an enemy using a close range weapon. Think before you play. You'll find yourself whining a lot less about the M79.
-- you dont approach enemies intelligentlyIf you would like to edit that image, and show me how i should have approached my enemy any more 'intelligently', no one is stopping you. I dont see any other options than trying to get through as fast as I can and praying I dont get shot, or running away. "Dodging", "Playing Smart" "Getting away" are incredibly vague strategies. I'm not gonna settle for "hey maybe im playing like a noob" because I dont learn anything from that, other than supposedly being a bad soldat player. That's like trying to learn to skate, and just saying "hey I cant do it" and not try to learn. Thats stupid BS and should not happen.

If you're that careless of the enemy and surroundings, you deserve to die. It's a war game, and thinking you should be able to dash across the map so quickly and easily without any threats waiting for you just doesn't make sense.

@Mr. Domino - I can evade them every once in a while but its not guaranteed.
Papercut, by your logic, I should always win against you if you use a M79 and I use a MP5, simply because you're using a M79. Deal with it. You should get this worthless thread locked before you further humiliate yourself.
you should respect people's right to express an opinion you disagree with.
each of you just have different opinions.
