they are nerfing the fire rate and the damage by 40%. This leaves it firing slower than a low RoF pulse with 30 to the head and 24 to the body and painfully slow projectile flight speed. You think slight tracking will make up for destroying the weapons damage and fire rate?

Go watch the last broadcast they streamed. It's probably more beast than it was before.
-
Because they implemented the buff, play tested it, saw that it was too strong and adjusted it to bring it back in line with where it should be. It looked like it was doing pretty decently in the stream.
-
Maybe use it first before you complain? [spoiler]It could have been a 0.4% Nerf.[/spoiler]
-
Do you know how fast it fired and hard it hit in y1?
-
Did you not see how fast it was killing in the stream?
-
The thing hits like a machine gun right now. Has a really quick time to kill. Having a special HMG that spawns with ammo and has tracking rounds. Thanks but no thanks. (They also never specify that the rof is being reduced by 40%, it just says the damage). <- that will put it on par with a mid rof auto.
-
They also made it track more aggressively and helped our with range so we will see

Edited by What I Look Like: 4/8/2016 9:27:16 PMThe gameplay they showed with it, was that the new and nerfed version? If it was, it was still kicking ass.
-
You do understand that the guns original dmg per shot was almost on par with heavy machineguns right. They had to nerf it or else you would have a gun that almost always has ammo, that does heavy MG damage, and tracks targets.
-
Because regular side arms hit fir like 50-60 to the head and this thing would shred with the new target tracking its needed
-
But does the bullet track to the head?
-
Lol it seems like they love nerfing crappy guns.
-
It wasn't nerfed. It was changed in a way they hope more will use it. I will like to try it out.
-
Well I Don't know if a weapon that essentially tracks it's targets should be two or three bursting them, but that's just my personal opinion.
-
So a dreg will beat me in a one on fight if I use it?
-
As I was looking at this I was asking myself why the icebreaker nerf?
-
I'm still gonna use it.
-
They're preemptively preparing for its abuse. Killing the problem before it starts. I know I'd use it in its full power with tracking bullets. Not so much if those bullets tickle. But anyway Where is this 40% reduction I keep hearing about ?
