HAMR

Post by reload » Thu 14 Nov , 2013 11:31 pm

Am I the only one that thinks the movement penalty of this weapon is extreme? I have to wait like 5 seconds after sprinting to fire or else i end up killing myself!! You could fire 3 rounds from the Conquerer in the same amount of time it takes to fire one shot. And it isn't even that strong.

Well, HAMR is not being used actively lately... there are better choices... at this moment I do prefer AT40 & Conqueror before the HAMR.

well Hamr was cool, but Conqueror >>>> all. it is way too strong ( not only my opinion on the server), reducing its damage could help or this weapon moves down when jumping and shooting ( dunno the "word" ), like rockets from ls14

And less penalty speed to Hamr ye why not, kinda sad no one uses it, even as a donation ( Conq and Law, thats it)

Yea, the conquerer is way to powerful. if ks3 still existed I'd say it would belong in that category. I have some reasonable suggestions that I think would make the hamr balanced.

- remove the movement penalty so that it doesn't bob up and down while walking.
- remove self-damage if the user decides to fire mid air.
- a 360 range (kinda like the minigun or energy turrets) when deployed

Or at least move it to ks1 joinha .

pls respond

No Aza it has been changed, simply firing it will cause self damage.

if (!BW.bScopeView && Instigator != None)
{
if (Instigator.Physics == PHYS_Falling)
Instigator.TakeDamage(80, Instigator, Instigator.Location, -Vector(Instigator.GetViewRotation())*4000, class'DT_MACSelf');
else Instigator.TakeDamage(50, Instigator, Instigator.Location, -Vector(Instigator.GetViewRotation())*4000, class'DT_MACSelf');
}
if (!BW.bScopeView && Instigator != None)
BW.bScopeView
ScopeView

Shouldn't you only take self damage if you are mid-air?
