OP Weapons/ suggested weapon changes.

9mm, while I agree with plenty of things you're saying, I think you're overusing the "tryhard" term a bit. Killing every prop you find isn't necessarily being tryhard - it's playing the game the way it's meant to be played, something it seems people tend to forget. Sure I spend most of my rounds these days playing as soldier or heavy or some other class where I'm not really trying much, but there's nothing wrong with a person like Shooter or box or anyone else who just plays to kill props. The ranking system may affect it, and I think taking it away would change the game some, but at the end of the day you can still press Tab and look at the scoreboard, and there aren't many people who wouldn't get satisfaction from being at the top.

For the record I don't consider tryhard an insult, there's plenty of things I am a tryhard at.  *cough* COD4 *cough*





Also Eskimo, way to shit on something without actually contributing lol, I fucking hate the internet sometimes...

I know, just putting in my two cents.

Alrighty guys, getting a bit off topic once again. This topic is for weapon changes. Let's try not to change it again, shall we?

Which, considering how often the PH forum gets off topic, I'm sure it will happen again. xP

What's the point of a suggestion thread without some debate? Sorry if it gets heated. :D

Even debates should be kept as detached as possible ;)

Also, can I just ask why the Demo grenade launcher was removed? was it just OP or something like that?

The splash damage I would assume and the fact that they just roll around.  Accidentally find props all day with it.

Shotguns are op.

Flare gun's far better but shotgun's more annoying when you're red.

Shotgun has 2 shots that can do 72 damage max each, assuming you get the +10% damage boost, hit every pellet, and are close enough for damage ramp up to take effect.

Flare has one shot that does 30 + 60 over time or 90 + 60 over time AND has passive reload.

Flare is better by far if you can aim it. Shotgun's only annoying because of the way dodging it works, there's really not that many people who are good with the shotgun and use it in prop hunt...

Dumb thread. Topic has been worn out big time.

It takes skill to aim with a flare...
Shotgun shots just spread everywhere which most people are doing is m1ing..
You can dodge shotgun's aswell as flares

Tell me, why do the majority of regulars NOT use shotgun? It's far more effective to just use your primary than to use the shotgun.

Sure, they might spread everywhere but the spread is completely random besides one bullet which goes to where the center of your crosshair is aimed. They might be able to hit you with one pellet per shot but that one pellet is doing minimal damage. Usually under 5 damage at mid-long range.

You can only dodge shotguns in the sense that they miss their shots. The bullets from a shotgun have NO travel time; if they're aiming at you when they press M1 you WILL get hit. Conversely, flares have a travel time and outside of a couple feet you can dodge 100% of flares with a combination of predicting when they will shoot and moving out of the way of the flare as it's coming towards you.

Earlier i was playing and i know i may not be the best at prop but
i got killed loads of times. just by one guy running around
using a shotgun aiming wildly and shooting wildly
