I would love to see how you would attack central park or the central water building against hvrs and.osmaws while using nfs's. Or attacking closed in areas like sujis with hvrs against nfas's. The map does not solely decide who wins The Yukon yes because it was a secondary weapon which outperformed all secondaries in the CQC range and outperformed most secondaries up to 20 meters. It also only performed slightly worse than CQC primaries like the OCA and PMG. The only cqc primary that outperformed it by more than 20% was the NFAS which has a range limit of 10 meters before becoming useless. So yeah, the Yukon was broken because it was a secondary which basically performed like a primary CQC weapon. The old trouble maker, I never had an issue with it. I would just snipe the players or use my explosive weapons. When it came to CQC I could use a PMG or shotgun and usually outgun them as long as I used corners. I could understand why it needed a nerf though, it had very few downsides and made a lot of weapons useless. No one weapon should make every weapon in it's category unilaterally useless. The NFAS and the Ogre are easily countered, have hard limitations (range) and have a specific use (corner popping) without making other weapons in the category useless (outside of the hit reg issue with other shotguns which should not be blamed on the NFAS and Ogre). If the shotguns didn't have issues with hit reg I would still be using the CSG but for some reason I can't seem to land many hits with it.

This is where we are currently at if you haven't noticed. The only change that actually happened to the yukon was its hipfire abilities so its not like the every aspect of it was overpowered. The troublenaker fits that description better but your opinion on what should have been changed is completely the opposite to what you believe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both NFAS and True Ogre have very harsh limitations on range (10 meters) and only shine while corner popping while the PMG and OCA have advantages in range and still retain the ability to corner pop. The other shotguns suffer from hit reg issues and fire slowly so are not very useful right now, but that is not a reason to nerf either the NFAS or True Ogre. Instead we need to fix shotguns so they work properly and all are actually useful. The Yukon was broken, it is now fixed and no longer dominates all secondaries in CQC or works similar to a primary in CQC. It needed a nerf because a secondary should not both dominate in one field AND act like a primary weapon. The same happened with the Nano C which is why it eventually got nerfed.

"The Yukon was broken, it is now fixed and no longer dominates all secondaries in CQC or works similar to a primary in CQC". So at one point, a weapon dominating all weapons in its class was considered broken. Insert Nfas every time yukon is used or SMG for every time shotgun is used, whats the difference? The yukons massive hip fire rate did not shine outside of corner popping either and could not be handled to take out even medium range targets. "It needed a nerf because a secondary should not both dominate in one field AND act like a primary weapon." So as long as a weapon doesn't dominate more than one field its fine and shouldnt be changed? What happened to "No one weapon should make every weapon in it's category unilaterally useless."? Interesting. Edited August 2, 2019 by UubeNubeh DaWog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also ridiculous TTK and huge bullet spread makes it a 100% braindead weapon to use in a cornercamp situazion, while many other weapon at least do have some type of counterplay/unreliability factor Corner camping cancerous? You probably think people running in circles is unfair too right? Perhaps you would like the enemy to stand still while you shoot them? You want the difficulty turned down? 6 hours ago, CookiePuss said: I thought they gave console players their own forum? That's no longer the case? Don't tell people how to use the forums.

Interesting. the NFAS and True Ogre do not dominate all CQC weapons. They dominate in shotguns but only because slow firing shotguns are broken (hit issues with pellets). The NFAS and True Ogre fire fast enough that the hit issue can be largely ignored because it fires multiple rounds in seconds. If an NFAS/True Ogre were out a street with no cover against a PMG/OCA who do you think would win? Hell, even the secondary FBW could dominate an NFAS/True Ogre user caught out in the open. That same FBW user would have issues againts a PMG/OCA user though. If there was no corner to pop out of, just a long hallway, who do you think would win 10-20 meters out, NFAS/True Ogre or PMG/OCA? Again, the weakness of the NFAS/True Ogre is the lack of range. Outside of corner poping the PMG/OCA are much more useful. The NFAS/True Ogre only dominate in the area they were built for, corner poping with cover in less than 10 meters. You are just being dense at this point about the Yukon. It dominated all secondary weapons in CQC and challenged primary CQC weapons. It needed to be nerfed. No secondary should dominate over every other CQC weapon AND be nearly as strong as a primary. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think the old yukon or old trouble maker shouldn't have been changed? Trouble maker yes, yukon not. Yukon is not only a piece of crap now, its hit reg is really awful so it barely matters how low its fire rate is. They made lose millions to yukon owners, and they dont give a fuck. They later pretend to know what they are doing. Im happy that they decided to keep messing weapons, that will piss off more players ;^) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thial 176 Posted August 2, 2019 What is happening to this game. 2019 and console G4m3rs are crying about nerfing tRu3 0gR3. ogre is like one of the noobest (is that even a word ?) weapons to get ez kills by sitting behind a corner 24/7. Get a grip and learn how to use all the other guns and you won't have to cry. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GhosT 1301 Posted August 2, 2019 I too think they should just revert their shotgun changes. The only thing they caused with that was damage. Shotguns were the most balanced class in APB before LO touched them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have answered your question and differentiated between a weapon which dominated all secondary weapons in CQC and was close to power as a primary (Yukon prenerf) and the NFAS/True Ogre which dominate in only one area of CQC, corner popping, but are not better than the OCA/PMG out in the open. You are being intentionally obtuse at this point and being added to my ignore list. Edited August 3, 2019 by illgot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would usually deal with these the same way I would deal with an Ogre or NFAS. Varies depending on the situation and I have no issues suiciding if it advances my team. One team unable to outgun the opposing teams set up does not mean a weapon needs to be nerfed. It means you are usually be outplayed by better teams skill/teamwork or the point is just impossible to hold. There are points that are nearly impossible to defend or attack but that's the map not the weapon. Too many times I see people with the wrong loadout blaming the opposing teams weapons instead adapting to the situation and using a CQC weapon in CQC or long range for defense in an open area. while true, that doesn't also mean a weapon cannot be overtuned/overpowered within it's own niche. I do agree that switching weapons at times is the best option depending on location, however that doesn't change the fact that some guns still should be slightly reworked. Nfas - is one of the few remaining that I feel is overtuned. I know of several locations that are nearly impossible to attack (most places are a fairly easy defense with the right loadout). However most people do not know how nor are coordinated enough to break the defense on the offense. Plus spawn choices, spawn waves, and car spawns drastically skew these broken locations, and i'd blame them probably more than the location itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
