Declined Vs. Saxton Hale nerf suggestion - Baby Face's Blaster

[Ryulise]

this gun is VERY annoying in VSH (and I know this as I have used the gun in the gamemode) and let's you nearly outrun Hale. worst of all, it's widely used and lots of people manage to survive. all I request is a speed or damage nerf.

Here's a novel idea. As Hale, make it so the scouts have to jump to get at you.

 

[Renegade]

There is also the option of using rage as Hale. Or does everyone think that's "nooby" too?

 

[Pinker-tan]

Or just ban the unlock

Then that's their problem. If there's one player left and that red player is running away to avoid getting killed, then Hale should cap. Who the hell cares if people think it's cowardly. I'd think that the red player running away is more cowardly than Hale capping and winning. It's really not that hard to just cap and get it over with. The point of Hale is to survive but delaying the round by running away is a huge waste of time. Hale should just cap and whoever calls it "nooby" or "cowardly" is an idiot. The point is there for a reason.

I agree people should cap in these situations but my point is most of them don't bother even when keeping in mind that its a video game, who cares if its considered cowardly. This then becomes everyone's problem because they now have to watch Hale chase around a scout for a long time

There is also the option of using rage as Hale. Or does everyone think that's "nooby" too?

This is another problem I wanted to mention. Some hales simply refuse to use rage for that exact reason. If they want to have a tougher time thats fine with me, but it becomes even more round delaying when they're not using it against a BFB scout

There's this subtle satisfactory of knowing you're the best there ever was with only losing 1/4 of your health and not raging.

Winning perfectly is like a slice of heaven.
Nothing competes with you, because nothing can.
Being the best.
It's incomparable.
It's beautiful.

it's not any more nooby than airblasting Hale as a Pyro

Just cap the point you fucking idiots.

But then you lose MLG points and the optic faze clan won't wanna recruit you

 

[Renegade]

If people are complaining about the BFB scouts delaying the round, then simply have the people who think they're MLG Hale suck it up and cap or rage and knock the head off of the sucker. Or vote to slay the scout, not the Hale. The Hale is doing his job. The scout's the one running away and delaying.

 

[Bottiger]

The game includes rage and capping the point. If you refuse to use these 2 options, you are the problem, not the baby face blaster.

 

[Sarge]

The problem with Rage, is that people seem to think you are a "noob" if you use it on the last man. And then needless drama occurs from a simple issue. I've made the point that BFB should, at the very least, get a nerf. Dang Scouts can still move around faster than a normal Scout.

IMO it becomes everyone's problem when they refuse to cap or rage. Everyone has to wait 5+ minutes watching hale chase a scout around. Sometimes it gets so bad people start vote slaying or leaving, especially when it happens round after round

But thats the hale's problem, not the scouts. Hence, no reason to remove the blaster.

I understand what you're saying, I just feel we should be able to do something about it. No one wants to watch a 10k+ HP hale chase down a BFB scout for 8 minutes. It's a great way to help empty out the server

Banning a weapon isnt really the best way to go about it.

 

[Renegade]

In all honesty, even if the BFB was blocked, odds are people probably would've started complaining about another weapon they think is overpowered or something. And again, there is the option to cap the point. If you think it's a "noob" thing to do, don't even bother playing Saxton Hale anymore. It's such a ridiculous thing to think and frankly, it's pathetic. You also have the ability to use rage. Those things are there so you can use them. Not to call them "noobish" or whatever. If the scout is constantly just running away, the Hale can either choose to use rage or cap the point. Or, you can vote slay the scout for delay of game or something.

the problem is, some maps don't have cap points.
