Devs Closing Gatekeeper Threads

Someone get the popcorn.

Sorry for the interruption mates. Let the flame war continue

It's not the close-medium range that's the issue - it is good at these ranges and easy to use, a likeable weapon.

What is an absolute complete and utter pain in the ar$e is the fact that EVERY SINGLE TR ENGAGEMENT now is accompanied by numerous Gatekeepers (Harasser and Prowler - but especially Harasser) sitting on a very distant ridge, shelling VS and NC vehicles / infantry with no realistic way to retaliate. They're even decent at AA. I did think that I should capture screenshots to demonstrate the issue but really it's not needed - just play the game. Vulcan Harassers are deadly but at least they have to risk being shot.

It is getting very tiresome indeed and ruining the vehicle game. I'd suggest it's even ruining it for TR. Devs closing down multiple threads on the issue is not the solution.

Do the Saron and Enforcer hit you with direct hits? By that logic they are OP as all hell.
Do the Saron and Enforcer give you assist points when you don't get the final hit? By that logic they need an immediate nerf.
You think that because it has sustainable damage... It should be nerfed because watching your health tick away is scary? You're playing the wrong game sir.
It is not very useful on any aircraft (you can readily hit Galaxies but they have so much health it doesn't matter) or infantry, being a 6 shot kill to (direct hit only) kill any infantry.

far more useful/deadly than the sauron
as great as the PPA over the basilisk . .
but anyway

You mean beyond the fact it does the same DPS as the Saron going at maximum rate of fire (i.e. maximum COF bloom that's makes it only possible to hit if you're hugging the enemy vehicle) at over twice the bullet velocity with no noticeable drop at 400m+ range? Because then I'm sure you'll not mind to have the Saron and Enforcer buffed to match this since they are also suppose to be long range AV weapons after all...

I still think we should buff two of the other empire's AV weapons to bring them to gatekeeper level. I think the gatekeeper is a wonderful and unique weapon that should be left alone. Besides, if Radar really is looking at the forums, he's not going to cave to the Whine of the Month. We've moaned about lost features, nerfs, all that stuff... I doubt he'll make any changes to the GK just because of us.

Trouble is that the devs really do need to understand the community feeling, the last thing they need right now is for people to rage-quit and not return - and the players certainly don't want that either.

I think they have a real challenge on their hands now though - not least due to the enormous numbers of players who have forked out for a GK (the long-range sniping issue was spotted quickly yet they did nothing, the longer they take to fix it the bigger the issue it will be). Mind - they totally destroyed the PPA yet nothing was done about that.

Even if they don't care what the latest forum moan is - they really should listen to the group who actually beta tested the GK or some very experienced TR players who all agree that there is an issue.

No, no, no, you are so wrong! The saron has MUCH higher dps than the GK at full burst! 7dps more...

i

have a suggestion to STOP CRYING

I'll play TR and farm on GK until something changes. Wonder why people are playing TR more lately?

Hmmm nothing shady about you at all sir....... nothing at all.

You sir haven't seen what going down on Connery lately have you? Emerald isn't as noticeable. I'm guessing that where you play...

I play on all the servers.

How are you so oblivious to the fact? There isn't a stat that's recorded that can produce the issue this gun causes.

Buddy, you are not fooling anyone.

I was expecting a better comeback from you, this is pretty lame with the reputation that proceeds yourself.

Do you rotate servers weekly, daily, or hourly?

If you want to talk Connery, here's the by-faction breakdown of the last three months. Also, one month at a time.

NS Black OP's seems like a feasible solution to population flux's.

I don't even know who you are, but clearly with that response you failed.

That's a matter of perception.
