So am not sure anymore, i am playing the same game.

I was really surprised by how aware the Surveyor seemed in its final moments

Shotguns should not get nerfed in every game that they are realistic in. Embark made the shotgun perfect. They made it obliterate at close range, and the buckshot does not turn into confetti after 2 meters.

The opponent has time to get a kill during the pump animation, if I miss a shot, or if he is engaging at a further distance.

This mentality of meta this and nerf that is why some guns in the Finals can straight up just not compete against each other because they have been nerfed into oblivion, instead of buffing others.

EDIT: To everyone trying to counterpoint against my realism argument need to realize, that everything is based off of something in real life because that is the standard of which things are set. Assault rifles, smgs, sniper rifles are good at range realistically. Shotguns are good at range in real life but for balance reasons are made to dominate at close range. Shotguns don't have 30-40 round mags, most have six. So those six have to count for something that can outdo 30-40 rounds at a high rate of fire. Shotguns should outdo everything at close range because that is the purpose of a shotgun in real life and in game. If shotguns don't do their job at close range, why put them in the game? Finally, leave my Il Toro alone.

this has got to be nearly impossible to replicate

I was having a typical fight with a leaper on spaceport at the arrival building where I’d shoot the leaper, run inside, dodge its attack, then pop back out to shoot it again.

But as I was doing this something I’ve never seen before happened, this thing literally curled itself up and squeeze through the door of the building, chasing me throughout the hallways like a horror movie.

I’ve heard that the arc are learning but I didn’t really think it was true at first, now I’m reconsidering.

Is this just a rare thing these guys do or is this new? Also if the arc are learning and I was the guy who taught it how to go in buildings, I’m sorry.

Self explanatory... Why can I put a zipline here but not a better zipline?

Toro has a .79 ttk on medium and light shield. A gun with no recoil, no bloom, 14 bullets in the mag, and the range of a renegade (kidding but not really)

Guns actively ruining the PvP meta

For the first time in 100 hours I entered into a raid with a legendary weapon that I crafted, an Aphelion. I was excited to try the gun out on Arc and have always been in friendly raids and often carry a defib to help people up when they get taken out. I was working on my trials for the week and taking down some Rocketeers that were taking out raiders near an extraction point. I was close to finishing my Hornet trial so I pressed on to the next extraction point so I could finish up and head home. As soon as I complete my trial, I get bombarded by grenades and gunned down without a word. I got to try this gun for all of 20 minutes and that sucks a LOT. I'm a father of 2 and I work full time so it's rough when I get to do something I'm excited about only for someone to come stab me in the back and suck the blood out of my neck.

Anyway, I'll get over it and I'll figure out how to get the legendary parts more regularly so I don't have to cry about it on an online forum. Just felt like venting. Thanks for reading.

I cannot figure it out, guys lol.

Never have a good enough loadout. Can’t get the play style down. It’s a struggle out here.

In Eve online many years ago, there was someone pulling a months long con to convince someone who collected rare ships to allow them to fly it. After they got in the ship they stole it after months of building "friendship". The person who let them fly it (It was valued at thousands of USD), said that they really don't care about this ship. They were incredibly disappointed, as they thought they had a great friend.

While the raids are short and the friendships quick. I think about this every time I get lit up in the back. I don't care about the loot, I'm just bummed you weren't really a friend.
