You give people too much credit, and evidently I wasn’t clear enough.

We were attacking. With 4 Rhinos. On Underground. Our whole team was spawn camped within the first minute.

Can’t blame them, to be honest they propably got bored waiting at the objective (Rhino is a slow MF is what I’m trying to say :wink: ) .

I have to admit, Rhino’s speed, with a shotgun or any other weapon is faster than many FPS characters in a few games I’ve played, and thats without heavy armor or stuff like that, just another thing I love about Dirtybomb, to anyone who really understands how to play him I salute to them, to the ones who have been using him during the free rotation, minigun winding up as soon as they spawn… meeeh

i think rhino is ok. Lots dont. When looking to a nerf to maybe keep these people happy i wonder how creative the dev team can be? I mean reducing dmg or HP or all that stuff is rather bland right?

How about if once rhino was downed he only able to be rezzed by a hand up even if its a medic class doing the rez. You could say that its the heavy Armour is the reason but really it would be a good balance to guy - if thats too extreme make it so while down he cant be gibbed by gun fire?

OH and B4 people leap to defend their beloved Rhino im just Thinking outside the boxes borders inside the square that is a logical round hole for a small peg on the washing line that is FPS blandness exception to

We really shouldn’t be discussing nerfs when he needs buffs tbh.

This thread again. Rhino is an easy target at range, flanked by two players and easy kill for decent Nader and Fragger. It is a problem only in bigger numbers if your game is something like 4v4. Don’t charge him face on and just headshot.

Rhino is pretty hilarious in that new players all think he’s OP and people who have played a while consider him pretty awful overall outside of a few situations. He’s the only character like that in the game. I’m not sure if even Fragger gets as much hate as Rhino and you can still drop 60 a side in a pub with Fragger pretty easily AND basically everyone has him due to the PC Gamer giveaway.

Well to be fair the Heavy in TF2 was the same way.

People pretty much think like this, “if it kills me, it’s op”


(planetaryGalaxy) #29

The Rhino’s that talk smack are just… smh.


(RuleofBooKz) #30

People pretty much think like this, “if it kills me, it’s op”

yes they do - but here is the thing - not all the time

To dismiss any one for putting forth an opinion that something is OP due to the above is just lazy stereotyping.

Too often genuine complaints or logic is dismissed out of hand - and it happens here on the forums

the key points here:

  • rhino is very easy to use, among two poorly skilled players, rhino will win everytime
  • very few good players use rhino; they find him boring to play since he moves so slow
  • good players with rhino are actually really hard to put down. they remain mobile, and nitro augment will keep them shredding you in surprise attacks. Initial minigun acc. will kill you with multiple hs, before you know what happened; esp. with client-side detection
