vsb 6170 Posted July 29, 2019 as others have said it’s just a pmg reskin the pmg def pushes the op line, i think a simple range nerf would be enough to fix it tho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NotZombieBiscuit 3146 Posted July 29, 2019 The bolt is pay to win because it looks nicer than the standard PMG, therefore you play better with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valkyrja- 55 Posted July 29, 2019 Skins that look better are automatically given a +10 accuracy boost. So if the skin looks better its definitely pay2win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GhosT 1301 Posted July 29, 2019 Where is this PMG OP whining coming from? Did some random streamer or cheater start using it again? There's way more problematic weapons to rebalance first. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PGAW67 11 Posted July 29, 2019 I disagree, PMG is a very good CQC weapon but it is definitely NOT OP. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's way more problematic weapons to rebalance first. it’s been a very strong option since it’s last rework - afaik there’s no other smg that can consistently rack up min ttk kills at 40m, hence my suggestion that it’s range be lowered Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're better than that. We both know the accuracy prevents it from getting min ttk kills at 40m. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I even have the bolt, so it should be OP. even if it doesnt min ttk the ability to consistently (right word this time) do full damage at longer ranges than most other smgs is a problem - the manic and vas-c2 are marksman smgs which comes with its own drawbacks, and the whisper is lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GhosT 1301 Posted July 29, 2019 3 minutes ago, Glaciers said: Yeah though, "easily"... don't know. It's hit or miss with that gun, you can engage 10 firefights at 40m and die every time because of RNG. It can min ttk at that range, but it's so far away from being consistent or easy enough that it happens frequently enough to be overpowered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrandonBranderson 672 Posted July 29, 2019 I have pretty shitty RNG luck with the PMG tbh. I started using it again recently and I definitely wouldn't call it op, but it is a pretty strong choice. If it was more consistent and predictable then I'd go so far as to call it a little op. I remember back when everyone complained about it being op. Good times. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the PMG is fine as it is, doesn't need a range nerf, but wouldn't mind one either since it'd barely change anything.
