Remove Shaft's ability to hit Magnum's barrel


Recommended Posts

The whole point of Magnum is that it's the only weapon that can shoot while hiding behind cover without exposing the hull, but Shafts can still shoot you if the Magnum turret is sticking out, which ruins the whole point of using Magnum.

This isn't necessary. Magnum is already OP with its ability to hide and demolish everything around it, so at least this gives the enemy some opportunity to beat this turret. And if you want to avoid getting killed by Shaft like that, just hide behind taller cover or lower your barrel after every shot.

Then give magnum the power to catch boxes using the barrel ;)

No, then you would have to do the same for all the other turrets making some OP for gold hunting.

Actually, the developers even mentioned it in the V-LOGs as a drawback of the turret. So I am pretty sure they are not going to remove it. At least not anytime soon.  :huh:

Every hull and turret has a strength and a weakness. It is how we handle and hide our weaknesses that makes us play better.

What would be the point in shafts accuracy, then?

True. It's not that easy hitting such a small target, especially when it is given a warning by a wavering beam.

I don't think this idea should be under review, because Shaft can also hit Railgun and other tanks on the turret, so it would be unfair for all non-Magnum users. In addition, Magnum can easily take out Shafters with enough skill.

Maf, shouldn't this idea be declined?

Yeah, I wasn't sure at first but at this point I can safely agree.

And what would be the next post "Remove other tanks ability to hit Magnums anywhere on the tank?"

 

Harpoon stated it perfectly - advantage probably most OP long range turret.  Disadvantage awkward to use and doesn't fire line of sight hence need to raise gun barrel giving away position (like shafts laser).

 

Live with it and quit whining.
