  • Both the Wingman and Peacekeeper were nerfed along with both of them becoming much more rare in the world. Because of this we shredded all day with AR's, SMG's and LMG's and had a blast.
    No more being surrounded by squads maining both weapons. Now, there is risk and reward to these weapons and they are not everywhere around you at all times.

    @rivaLxfactor  Před 5 lety +45

    One small mistake. The wingman has no reduction in speed while aiming down sight and strafing, which is nuts really. It is faster than SMG's, AR's, Snipers, and LMG's as arguably the strongest weapon in the game. That may get tweaked in time and could actually help fix some of the hitbox differences. A strafing Wraith with a Winger is much different than a strafing Chonky Boi.

      Peacekeeper wasn't nerfed, and Wingmans fire rate was a cunt hair reduced. #Facts

    • @rivaLxfactor
      @rivaLxfactor  Před 5 lety +1

      @@WhoTFisChedda Wrong. Wingman received a reduction in rate of fire of 19%. It has been given an additional penalty on hipfire and spread reduction while spamming hipfire. On top of that the drop rate is rumored to be reduced by more than 60%. Peacekeeper rate of fire on any bolt was reduced along with its drop rate.

      @BillyJWickens Před 5 lety

      The wingman needs the hop up and extended mag removed, added bloom and also you shouldn’t be able to carry as much ammo. Or they can solve all this and just make it a golden gun that you can only get from drops

    The peacekeeper needs to be more consistent also. Even with a choke I still get shots all the time where it only hits them for 10 damage. When I hit then right in the chest from 5 feet away it should not only be 10 damage. But somtimes you can get 100+ damage... Its a strange gun that has saved my ass and got me killed countless times.

    • @Elit3Nick
      @Elit3Nick Před 5 lety +2

      The pellet spread is fixed on shotguns so it really all depends on your aim. The peacekeeper's spread is a star, so you get the highest concentration of pellets at the center of your aim, its effectiveness drops significantly if the center of the spread misses them.
