Completed Magnum and why it should be nerfed

[LittleWillie 3,199]

Buying a kit can give you an advantage: you can start MU-ing it already in the next class.. I bought a m3 kit AND am MU-ing it now to m4 asap.

Most likely will reach 20/20 before marshall (it is 14/20 already)

Yes both approaches give certain advantages. Your kit allows you to MU hull and turret now, in the two ranks before Marshal. My approach frontloaded the same advantage over the ranks from Major to Maj Gen. However I am putting MU steps in modules. I will have 4 of them (plus the Mines one) MUed to 40% or better before I hit Marshal. 

 

In my estimation you get more from your investments by the front-loaded approach.But for the next two ranks you you will have the turret and hull advantage over me.

 

I agree with taking time t level. There is no timer on reaching Marshall or any other specific rank. Everyone chooses either DM, TDM, CTF, CP, or ASL regardless of rank.

Its been too long already, when is the frigging nerf coming?

Magnum One Shoted my M4 Titan on Double Damage on many ocasions.

 

This is not right, something is wrong with that Turrret, no Turret should one shot an M4 Titan, not even Magnum.

I agree. Heavy hulls should not be one-shotted by ANYTHING except shaft on DD.

Magnum in silence imo is the worst. Silence has those spots behind the flag with a wall and crates protecting campers there and they could shoot over the walls to hit the other base, where all the defenders are at and never die once.

Luckily, a good Magnum can counter a Magnum. Being able to line up shots from anywhere is nice, especially if you can find a blind spot in their blind shelling.

Agree with you,everyone is waiting for that damned nerf!

The devs once said, that they won't do any balance changes before the matchmaking system is introduced. So in a way it sounds like that people are embracing the matchmaking system now ;)

If that's what it takes then let there be light.

That's dirty pool - like attaching an unpalatable Rider to much needed legislation.  :angry:

Yeah, I don't think that hazel is going to nerf his favorite toy :P

Still quitting games made pointless to play in because of the fiasco that is called Magnum. I will not spend a dime on this game until Magnum is &^#@#!*#$ nerfed.  Does that register somewhere to TO's management? 

 

 

There are countless near-invulnerable forts on all the maps that allow Magnum to rain down massive damage without the slightest %$%#$!!ing risk to themselves.  Here's on from Year 2024.  Th enemy team has to fight through there entire map and the entire enemy team in order to even take aim at a Magnum in this location. Virtually every game there are Magnums located here. Is teh goal to make sure every player uses Magnum and nothing but Magnum? Imagine the variety in game play ... NOT.

 

 

Why is this fiasco allowed to exist? And exist? And exist? DO something TO.

Don't forget the mines these magnum campers usually surround themselves with.

 

The ONLY counter is another magnum. That's just silly.  The game is broken when, out of 13 (?) different turrets the ONLY way to counter a turret is with the same turret.

Yeah mines. The Magnum in the pic had just spawned and moved to its firing location so it hadn't had time to sow mines if it was going to do so.

 

I am trying to send a signal here to TO that there inaction on Magnum is costing them business. If that does not motivate a commercial game company nothing will.

RIP skilled players 
Magnum is like shoting trough walls which hackers do.

That spot is pure cancer. Even I wouldn't use it, there are way better ways to go about my shelling than hiding in a little cubicle and lobbing blindly.

Blindly?  You can adjust the map angle and see what is where... that's part of the problem with magnum and tanki.  The turret can "see" things it shouldn't and lob shots there as needed.

I've never been able too, I just take the high ground to get a vantage point.

Barda: sit back, press space, relax and poop mines all over the camp spot.

Man, I love this thing.

Be hated by everyone... 

Seriously though, people who play Magnum like that are the people who use the Phlogistinator in TF2.

They're holding back the nerf since the point this thing got introduced. What has it been like... 10 months?

I mean, you can't get a more obvious example of an overpowered turret. In the meantime, millions of crystals have gone into Magnums. There's something fishy going on... naughty naughty.

 

I feel like Magnum users are going to become miserably underpowered after the matchmaking system.

I have to include myself in here... so I'll exploit it while it lasts.

[Noorullah-K 63]

Declined.

Under review

Thank GOD you finally changed your mind.

[TakeAShower 300]

Thank GOD you finally changed your mind.

Actually, it was declined when the topic was called "Magnum and why it should be removed"

As my fellow player said, the topic was made that way so the entire Turret would be removed from the game but since we don't accept ideas such as removing Turrets from the game, the topic was declined but after some time, we thought that it would be a waste of topic to let be like that hence changed from removing to nerfing which makes sense since Magnum is very powerful now.

Maganum with DD in reds base and you all die :( .

 

 

I agree with you . maganum ruined almost all tanki maps :( and this gonna effect on the game .

 

 

So do you think less DMG would make it better balanced ?

I am sure there are better spots, I just happened to think of taking a SS when that Magnum was there. Pleanty of ppl do nothing more than that lob shot stuff yet still score. The spot to the left of that Magnum is actually more popular and virtually as well protected. Meanwhile other turret users have to work hard to accomplish anything.
