[quote=“Fiktio;80789”]If player find a shotgun not being at good shape, it doesn’t matter is the player using Phantom, Fragger, Skyhammer or any other merc.[/quote]Yeah, but do you know how many people still find example Phantoms annoying?
[quote=“Fiktio;80789”]Giving constructive feedback and giving even negative feedback does not mean that we are whining here. Though I have to agree that the main post itself has a small lack of constructive feedback. :([/quote]This was half of my point I made.
Just whining and no solutions but some kind of banning of some merc weapons because mr. invincible cannot handle the heat.
There was no conscructive feedback. None.
[quote=“Fiktio;80789”]I understand that you - very likely - dislike Phantom as a merc or Phantom players in general, but please be reasonable. [/quote]It’s kind of hard to dislike Phantom players since I’m one of myself. I just see the attitude behind some of them being quite…disturbing.
[quote=“Merciless;80804”]“Because he was broken beyond any reasonable thought.” lol :D[/quote]Yes, because “scrub” like me back then could entirely OWN people.
His abilities combined were just totally unbalanced compared to any other merc.
[quote=“Merciless;80804”]Yeah, you’re definitely part of the scrubs that shed enough tears to cause a global flood.[/quote]Like said I was one of the “scrubs” who played him.
This might come as shocking news but I have Phantom on my lineup and I do play him time to time.
I did once almost shed a real tear and were’ talking about before the neft. It was when complete noobie n my team who couldn’t do anything with Aura and Skyhammer to help the team or even kill (heck he did try) people decided to try out Phantom. Next day when I run into him in match he was leading his team scoresheet. I mean wtf? Change the merc to Phantom and puff!
Yeah, totally balanced and not certainly OP, let’s leave him like this since these amazingly talented players know everything.
[quote=“Merciless;80804”]I can understand your point when you say a shotgun to the face is a hurtful thing and I agree. But I don’t think that when someone swings a Katana at you, he’s suddenly crippled and disabled to a point where he cannot move the upper half of his body.[/quote]You mean before the nerf? Did you play Phantom then? Did your opponents had some kind of chance of saying more than “oh cr…”
[quote=“Merciless;80804”]They just made it easier today for whiners like yourself because luckily for you guys, you were, and probably still are, the majority of the community. Which is one of the reasons why this game is sinking atm. But that’s not your fault. It’s SD’s.[/quote]And who’s currently whining here? Who looks to be the scrub here? 
Mirror, mirror, on the wall…
And please don’t drag the whole community down thinking you are better. You’re not.
You mean the nerfing of Phantom is the reason game is “sinking”… :lol:
No, one of the reasons game is sinking because toxic in game not welcoming behaviour (disrespect, shaming, putting down community rather than embracing it, general dickish behaviour etc.) that is shown also even by the more experienced players (when they should know better) and also the fact some people as so obsessed with their style of playing the game or their favourite merc (which they never complain about but call others as scrubs who might question those mercs abilities as OPish) that once they get owned of something else they start to cry. SD has to listen to everybody to keep things in check and find the right balance. At least in this thread unlike the original post, there are some actual discussion how shotguns operate.
I would imagine that if person plays Phantom regularly and tries to swing Katana he most likely will meet situations against shotgun mercs on close range more than other mercs. It’s good counter for Phantom which might have caused this thread.
