TR Mini Chain Gun after GU06

[Nur]

I don't know if I have posted in the correct place.

Anyway I am talking about the T7 MINI CHAIN GUN and AIM after GU 06.

I cannot understand if it is a bug or not, i will explain:

When I fire while not aiming the circle becomes more and more big, while holding the smalle white point in the middle.

If aiming, the crosshair fades and only one white spot is there; while spraying you will have a small circle that gets bigger and bigger while shooting.


Also when running the ccircle rosshair gets bigger, and it is quite annoying.


So it is a BUG or it is changed and made on purpose?

thanks for your replies.

bye

Probably on purpose. It makes burst fire necessary, though I dont understand why a weapon that is basically meant to be used to spray the enemy dead would be handled that way.

[Pella]

The gun is still terrible in everyway.

Lasher V2 is the only HA that is worth getting.

[Bocheezu]

The same thing happens with shotguns now; running/walking/LA jumpjetting makes the circle get all big. I think it also gets bigger after continuous automatic firing. Sort of annoying, actually, because the circle isn't really a proper indicator of where the pellets are going. If you crouch, you get this really tiny circle, but the shotgun spread is much bigger than that. I've shot at a wall while standing still, and some pellets are almost always outside the circle. I assume it's not actually the spread and it's an indicator of the hip accuracy, because I didn't think the spread changed based on running/walking/still/crouched.

I think all cross hairs are bugged when running, they become huge and flash on the screen in a very annoying way.

Also with the advent of shotguns & SMGs, WTF does the minigun still have that stupid spin up time. Dev's you really should remove it, post haste ;)

It is not.

You need to know how to use it, it is an above average weapon, still is not the strongest one.

but know I think with the new aim is worst than ever, as I cannot properly aim.

If they not fix this I think I cannot use it anymore.

The dead spin is now together with the fast enlargement of the aim circle and the only reference you have is the tiny white dot.

Franky speaking this thing is annoying as it is applied to a fun weapon that was not strong before. :evil:

Yes and still I cannot stand running with MCG and see this circle becoming huge in the screen!

For what purpose?

Other weapons such as the T16 with a extended mag, Offers higher damage output. More accuracy. 200 Clip size and most of all no spin up time.

Making the MCG completely redundant. Even in ClOSE/MED/LONG Ranges.

[Nur]

It is, but this is no excuse to make the weapon even less competitive.

As I think it has become now.

Maybe I need only to familiarize with the new HUD

how would removing the spin up time make it less competitive?

[Nur]

I did not notice the removal of the spin time. Thanks I will check it.

[Gonefshn]

They need to seriously work in the special HA weapons. I play VS and I have to say the lasher is the only one that has a use and is worth anyone's time. I love my lasher for certain situations. The mini chain gun is so horrible you are better off with an LMG every time. And the Jackhammer is a joke it is worse than the pump action shotguns.

[Goldymires]

They'll "fix" the Heavy Weapons by adding new Heavy Weapons most likely...

I'm calling it now.

Hammerjack.

Umm.. how is this confusing to people?

The circle is an indicator of you Cone of Fire(CoF) - just like the cross hairs on other guns.
Your CoF as always ballooned when sprinting - its just that the circle didnt change size to show it before.

This is correct

[Nur]

i tried and weapon seems better but i do not know why in details.

Aim is better

[Koadster]

It is not.

You need to know how to use it, it is an above average weapon, still is not the strongest one.




MCG is outgunned by any other full auto gun, the Jackhammer is a joke.. Why not just go pump action or any other shotgun. Lasher has AOE which atleast makes it useful in certain situations.

After trying it just now, first time post GU06.. Using ADS makes the gun seem really good now, using a 200 round drum can net you like 30+ kills fairly quickly.. Seems like its been buffed, the spin up time still hurts it versus another gun but isnt as bad as pre GU06

[Zaik]

they changed the reticule to give information on your cone of fire now.

nothing has been changed about any of the guns whatsoever(except for shotgun changes that were listed in patch notes, of course), the circle is just telling you how large your cone of fire is now.

for shotguns, the center of your shot will land somewhere inside your cone of fire, then your pellet spread will be centered on that spot. the pellet spread is a second cone of fire fixed in size where the pellets are randomly distributed.

[Falcon_br]

I don´t know, in beta I could sniper with the t7, after the game was release, I couldn´t do it anymore.
Now with GU 06, I am sniping with it again.

I, for one, am glad we didn't make it to the second page before someone pointed this out.

[moosepoop]

they should give the mcg scopes, ads with it is really awkward.

[Nur]

I can confirm the weapon seems better know.

Aiming has sense.

Still I see the barrel moving for some time without shooting then it shoots.

AT least the animation does that.
