Should zone hire a gun admin?
Should a gun admin be hired for zone? Im just curious since I hear a ton of rabbling from players about how zone has no ga and no one knows proper weapon balancing in zone and the weapons are unbalanced. I want to know, two things, should a GA be hired and what should they fix. Or why zone doesn't need a GA. I think personally zone needs a GA theres a lot of small tweaking issues with zone what I think should be done in zone to improve balancing. Red/Green rifle tap fire removed and 6 dmg Streamer tap fire removed APR clip nerf to 12 and a reload increase. Ill add on to my list later. |

Yes. Me. I dont think streamer tap fore should be removed though since most people cant do it, its not easy to do. Rippers clip should be 18

18clip 7.5dmg = 135 total dmg 18 clip 7dmg = 126 12clip 7.5 dmg = 90 dmg 18clip 7dmg = 126 What this means, the APR would still be the top dog gun in spar and for 1v1s with the absurdly fast rof and high damage AND the low b2k. However you only have enough firepower to take out 1 person, and a slightly longer reload to .6 making this gun in combat awesome in 1v1s but if faced with multiple people you better have another gun in your quick select and use that gun instead. This should be a strict skill based weapon and you must make every single shot count. Also zone needs more spar specific weapons and this would work great.

I think every server needs a gun admin. Hehe. But in all honesty, I don't really think it's necessary. Just make sure admins don't over-**** gun stats.

Tashkin or PD already do this I'm assuming and it's just going to **** up everybody if someone new comes in and wants to change everything. It's not really about all around balance, they have different gun tiers on purpose.

@ghettosnapple You can also reply without being a jerk. If the changes you want for the APRs were to happen then it wouldnt be worth the price. I think 18 is a fair clip size since the streamer has it too and is just as strong when in frenzy. The streamer is only slightly inferior due to its clip size and the way it shoots, which is why i think the price for the aprs is fair. If anything though, the prices for both need to be raised. And i agree with you on the red/green rifles, they need to be put back to 6 dmg, tap removed and i think they should be 8000 like the photon rifle. Another gun that needs to be changed is the bow. They need to make the arrows more visible because they are near impossible to see in most parts of the game. @Nyte that is true, even though high end guns have perks, theyre not impossible to defeat, ive taken down high end gun users with a beamer plenty of times so skill is a major factor. Thats a benifit to zone unlike Era where you basically buy your way to the top. |

If the red and green rifle do get back up to 6 damage and have tap fire removed, then bumping the guns price up to 8000 would be pointless since the Photon Rifle would be superior to the color rifles since the photon has tap fire and thats why its more expensive. They already have, all the guns in the 3rd gun shop are underpowered except for 2, they destroyed the purpose of the red and green rifle with the last nerf, and the APRs are OP, everyone knows it, and no admin has taken up the issue, the siphon pistol nerf from 6.5 to 6 dmg screwed over that gun. |

Yes, they should hire a Gun Admin. Somebody who is good with numbers and balancing, can rationally think things through, and is willing to do some extra work now and then to ensure that players don't get completely ripped off. The "Gun Admin" position should go to somebody who has these qualities, not serve as a purgatory between the "developer" and "assistant development co-manager" positions. |

The AP Rippers aren't that bad. Maybe they look overpowered on paper but when you use them they are beatable. They do have a lot of perks though and can change a not so good player to decent, but I'm fine with that. I feel pretty rewarded for having to grind showdown wins to save up enough to buy the gun, it was worth when I was interested.

We really dont need a guns admin, we just need whoever is making the guns to think out the stats for them, and not have Stefan nerf the thing before its even released. I mean, anyone could really do it as long as they think about what they are actually doing. Not like such a job requires any specific talent or skill, just knowledge of the game.
