    Just a fucking rant about the minigun. The Devs have never fucking played on the server just in general im betting because I've noticed the damage on the minigun has gone down by 2 times and accuracy. If your gonna do that may aswell fuck other shit up because Minigun's can't even really beat helicopters anymore because if I'm correct Attack Mavericks have a longer range in there gun.

    The Minigun isnt skill with aim anymore, It's just autoclickers and jitter clicks

    The damage and accuracy had a reason behind it to being nerfed, main reason was it was way to OP and it ruined the game for people that had just started. The damage was reduced so it wouldn't insta kill a person what so ever, accuracy was reduced so it wouldn't be as easy to kill wingsuiter's and jetpacker's as miniguns would kill them without any problem. They are not "fucked", they are just not as OP as they where before.

    nah g it was nerfed 2 times. It was at 4 bars of damage now 2 and plus autoclickers and jitter is the only way to kill people with a minigun so what's the point

    Stop ranting about the minigun, I know for a factt that you, Chirag, are a jper/wingsuiter, and all you need to do is fight higher up to nullify the chances of a minigunner doing anything.

    Can you do anything besides complain all the time?

    Miniguns just ruin the experience for anyone below Mobster or Sponsor rank. If you're constantly being killed by minigun spammers without any way to counter them, then how are you supposed to make any progress? Those players who just can't get anywhere because the minigunners keep cockblocking them are just going to quit because it's no fun to keep dying all the time. GTM has this wide range of weapons to be used, a wide variety of options, but they have all been rendered useless because of minigun spammers. I personally hate using miniguns and prefer assault rifles or SMGs, but when everyone is out using miniguns, what choice do I have but to use a minigun myself or just keep dying repeatedly? None at all. It ruins the game's diversity completely.

    Now maybe my opinion doesn't matter because I'm just a filthy casual but I agree with their decisions to cut the minigun's stats back. Honestly, considering all the trouble they have always caused, at this point I would have just outright removed the minigun completely but I know they're not going to do that so heavily nerfing it is close enough

    wtf are you talking about. People start from the bottom to get to where they are at. They dont come to the top just to get some shitty gun they've always wanted to use

    Miniguns needed a nerf for a long time. Their accuracy was way too precise, and decimated people with their high firerate and high damage, especially with the way people jitterclick with them. They are still good, just not as good.

    You know what, scratch that last post, I don't know wtf I was talking about tbh
    After getting on for a bit today I have realized that the root of the problem is that the gun damage on SMGs and ARs is just too low to be able to stand up to a minigun. The damage on all automatic weapons is currently very low; automatic weapons are naturally supposed to have lower damage because they can throw out rounds faster than anything else. When all the automatics have the same damage (that means the minigun, SMGs, and assault rifles), naturally, the best one will be the one that can shoot the fastest equaling more damage output. The minigun obviously has the highest fire rate, so obviously it's the only automatic worth using since they all deal the same amount of damage, more or less. Therefore, the solution is to simply buff the damage on the other automatic weapons a little bit and then miniguns won't feel so OP.

    I'm kind of going off the course of the topic though. I think the minigun's stats are fine as they are for the moment, it's just the stats of all the other weapons that cause people to keep spamming them. When you get right down to it, the minigun is purely a weapon for spraying. It's not supposed to have pinpoint accuracy; that's what ARs should be for. It's not supposed to have insane damage either, because in the logic of balancing weapons, the higher the fire rate, the lower the damage has to be, otherwise the gun will end up being way too OP.

    You're right. People who take the time and effort to rank up all the way to the top expect, and deserve, something good in return. I'm not trying to take the reward away, but I hate how right now it feels like it's all but impossible to survive for long in PvP unless you have a minigun.
    Also I apologize for my sort of hostile tone in those other posts, I was cranky or something earlier

    TL;DR: Miniguns, for now at least, are fine as they are and don't need nerfed any further. SMGs and assault rifles should get a damage buff, and perhaps sacrifice some of their fire rate so that they do not outshine the minigun. How is this relevant to the thread? Well, he was complaining about miniguns being nerfed too hard, so I, as a representative of non-minigunners, propose this as a sort of compromise. :p

    I like miniguns just the way they are right now!

    *tip for non-godfathers*

    Minigunners are usualy hanging around the city so just go somewhere else!

    We have places like trailerpark, industrial area, and on some servers africa for a reason.
