Dark Star popular again

[Azarael]

The Dark Star's range damage bonus ramps linearly over time. You still get a damage boost when using it at hip spam range.

Then surely it would be more logical to remove that ramping up so early, than to damage it's fire mode across the board?

One game where it was clearly OP, almost a year ago, is your evidence, when my argument is that it sucks now, and has done for the last few months?

Exactly what I implied in my sentence:

Nova being in your "weapon favorite list" but nerft before for a while until now, and now is back !!!

Means: it was OP and you were using it until it was nerft. Then it sucked, so you don't use it anymore, and now with the buff maybe is back...

No wonder why I was feeling constantly overpowered ... hope you fix it soon ...

I probably was one of the ones asking for it to be nerfed. If I feel a weapon is OP I say so, but I don't think Dark Star is and I think this is just a knee jerk to a few people trying it since the 'buff'

i tried Dark star on goose, and was about 4 rounds of a full dark star, and of c i dont use the super function. I rather shoot with 60 dmg per shot in close range. The numbers said 60 though...that is way too much, so the game ended quickly.

I remember when i started to play ballistic weps, i guess the starting dmg of dark star was 25 and it was GOOD


( At least the hipfire was changed now...)

60 dmg in the spam mode? Way too high.

[iRobot]

I never saw 60 damage from this

[taries]

i saw 59 dmg
