The rhino adjustment we've all been looking for


(Dysfnal) #1

Static Bloom. As of right now he’s too inaccurate if fire is sustained, and too accurate if bursting. So, give him a constant bloom, and these problems will be no more.

If I’m honest I really don’t want this, it’s a wee bit more of a joke. This is what I want…

Increase the default bloom, and reduce the speed at which bloom increases. He will be substantially less niche than before, and shouldn’t be OP/worthless

His mini gun’s range is really big. He just kills me so fast when I am FAR, FAR away from him. The real problem is that EVERYBODY are using the mini gun and not the fucking shotgun, think about nader using only her nade thing. Think about skyhammer spamming airstrikes. they are all ABILITIES, NOT THEIR MAIN FUCKING WEAPON. Am I right or Rhino doesnt need to use his main weapon or secondary to finish people, His mini gun is better then all the SMG.

If u disagree so I know you didnt play against a Rhino.


(hoyes) #3

I agree with that.concept. Maybe increase the minimum spread by 10% and then make the spread over time insignificant. It would help the idea of rhino being able to suppress the enemy at further distances whilst keeping his effectiveness upclose.


(Wolf_Darkrose) #4

honestly id say kick out headshots with him and your golden but 95% of areas rhino is in are going to be up close and he is the DPS king of the game … and then you got the camping rhino… so much sallllt

@AnotherGuy
The minigun is the most effective weapon, it has a DPS of 300 and really useful against anyone. It also doesn’t need to reload and it has infinite ammo. Why use something else then?

It is an ability, not his main weapon right?

I already saw a crap load of Rhinos getting their asses kicked by an entire team, after all, his speed makes him an easy sniper target also. there are many ways to get killed as Rhino, and even if you see a Rhino, you can easly run away from him, his speed is super slow, you can basicly outrun him because of that.


(Orivar) #8

Not always.

I played with Rhino. The spread is so trash that I can pull 10x more weight with the M4A1, the KEK-10, and the Blishlock. The Blishlock!

A 5 degree spread for 300 DPS is much worse than a .2 degree spread for 124 DPS.

Considering minigun’s 300 dps, I think that such a change can be dangerous.

I’d rather make the accuracy a bit higher at cost of a small part of minigun’s DPS. It should be enough.

EDIT : Actually, I have something else that you guys might want to consider.

  • - Increase accuracuy by a nice chunk.
  • - Decrease rate of fire harshly till you go down to 100-90 DPS.
  • - The longer you fire, the higher your fire rate will be, the higher the DPS will go, up to 250.

Does the mini gun has headshot multiplier?

100-90 DPS is gross. You are better off playing with your sidearm as Rhino if his ability would deal that much damage per second. I’d be comfortable with around 140+ DPS and somewhat higher accuracy than the Timik. That way, Rhino’s mobility loss from the minigun would come with a very big increase in firepower, but it won’t be a laser gun.

Well lets remove that. it is not fair that a guy will hold his left mouse button and then he will get those headshot kills with the mini gun. This game is all about skill no?

M8, its a good ability, that’s why you use it.


(JJMAJR) #16

Oh man I can’t believe he said this…

Do you know how to aim with a burst rifle? That thing pulls so much more weight than Rhino’s minigun. I played with both the assault rifles and the minigun, and the M4A1 deals so much more consistent damage compared to the s#itpile that is the minigun.


(AtlasGray) #17

My idea would be to have it use ammo. Then you would have to use it more conservatively.


(AtlasGray) #18

Well I don’t know if this would be where to post this, But I think having the mini gun use ammo would fix the issue of using the main gun instead of the ability. It would also be another reason to play with your team.


(Dysfnal) #19

5 disagrees, yet most people think the minigun is bad… Hmmmmm I understand I missed the mark with the buff though
