Nerfing Joker carabine.

  1. 1. Ridiculous op weapon.

    • Yes
    • No
    • Just nerf its range to 30 like a pointman gun
    • Reduce hip fire movement
    • Reduce its bullets to 15
    • Make it marksman oriented like its counterparts
    • Drop its damage to minimum to kill with 6 bullets (167)

I seriously mean it, its a non markman ntec (which means a lot of free movement) with -10m drop off.

How can this gun be so op and be unnoticed for so, so long???

 

It even solves two of my main problems right now: losing markman (i found out its my mouse) and hitreg. I can hip fire (YES NON MARKSMAN) targets at 70m with pretty decent bullets hitmarks, it is so ridiculous i can't even believe it...

What if I told you, the Joker Carbine used to be even stronger than it currently is?

 

Or at least I'm 70% positive it got nerfed back in the last Weapon Re-balance phase...

I vaguely remember a time when the carbine had a much lower max bloom, such that CJ3 carbine was considered 'easy mode' and dishonorable by some.

 

But that's years ago so who knows

Yes i remember it killing with 5 bullets.

This weapon still pathetic, its a direct upgrade to pointman and its even better than assault rifles because it doesnt need marksman.

 

EDIT: i used it CLICKING MYSELF, imagine mwheel or macro users (i used it with mwheel and i wont talk about it because it should be removed it directly).

oca is going to beat a carbine in cqc way more often then a carbine will beat an oca

Carbine used to have pretty much no bloom, further range, 5 shot kill, and you could just run cj3 in it for crazy fire rate.

 

Plus it also had a better gun sound. REVERT BACK THE CARBINE GUN SOUND. THE TRASH CAN LIDS ARE STILL TERRIBLE YEARS AFTER THEY WERE CHANGED.

Unless you're fighting out in the open with no cover at all, pump-shotguns will still beat the carbine in 10-12m CQC, as will the OCA (and maybe a CJ3 Manic if aim is on point) so, Carbine being better than pointman guns in CQC is a dubious idea to me.

Depends on players and... you can still add cj3 to it. I used it stock.

skill equalized should always be assumed when arguing weapon theory in APB, so.....

 

also, CJ3 Carbine has actual bloom now on top of still having lower firerate than the OCA so that doesn't give it the advantage you're assuming it does

stac 10 > carbine

I just can't deal with the size of the Stac 10 anymore though. I like it more than the carbine but the gun model is just way oversized. Eventually ended up going back to carbine despite the gun sound being worse.

cj3 still wouldn’t even up the ttk between oca and carbine

 

players have little relevancy in this discussion about weapon balance, we can create hypothetical scenarios all day where the carbine beats the oca or vice versa

Yes, and still have the advantage to be a pointman and assault rifles upgrade.

that’s how the carbine is balanced, you trade that versatility for the edge that comes from having an actual range niche to excel at

 

so now you’re just ok at 2 ranges while the oca and ntec both excel at 1 (altho the ntec shines at way more than just midrange lol)

What would it be sr15 downside for you? Only range? Smash it a ir3 that has no downside in it and bam! you got a 50m effective hip fire gun that requires no marksman. Explain me how is that balanced?

bro the carbine is heavily nerfed....a little nerf now and the ntec will be the most OP gun in the game. the carbine was sooo OP back in the days that g1 nerfed it...dont kill the guns. buff other guns that are currently useless

because it’s outperformed by guns within their dedicated range
