Re: This isn't scientific stuff.

In Response To: Re: This isn't scientific stuff. (Joe Duplessie (SNIPE 316))


: Precision weapons take skill to keep the aim on the target until their
: shields are down and get a headshot. Close range weapons take almost
: (I'll correct myself) no skill, since you just look in their general
: direction and pull the trigger. Also, the BS has the longest range and
: tightest spread of all the close range weapons...

lolwut?

When the news of the Boltshot being seriously overpowered first broke, I put it in a couple of loadouts. For two or three games, I tried Boltshot camping, just to see how easy it was.

I got zero kills.

Not one or two kills, as I'd expect with ANY OTHER NEW WEAPON I'D NEVER USED BEFORE... but ZERO.

You're living in a different world than me if you think "you just look in their general direction and pull the trigger" is an accurate explanation of how to get kills with the BS.

(As of today, my total kills value with the Boltshot, in Matchmaking, is zero. The total number of ATTEMPTED kills is easily in the 30+ range.)
