Oh and why not go complain about the launcher pistol, why do you have to pick on BHs, come on now.

Actually, I am talking about Launcher pistol's, I'm also talking about Scatter Pistol's, If you read my post, I say PISTOL'S, plural, that means ALL PISTOL'S. I"m not picking on only scatter, I would love to be able to use every single pistol out there like I'm suppose to, then I can have some fun, but nope, I'm stuck with a scout blaster cause that's the best thing I can get right now on my server, and it is far from being anything as good as a scatter, or even a launcher. Either way, We're Master Pistoleer's, So give us ALL PISTOL's like we're suppose to have, otherwise just call us pistoleer general knowledger's or something to that stupidity.

There have to be BH specific weapons, otherwise its rather pointless using the same weapon and novice marksman can.

If everyone goes to their own board and only "works on their own issues" then guaranteed EVERY profession in this game is going to be completely nerfed. It's already happening, just have a quick look at the other profession forums.


Here's a novel idea. How about we all come up INITIALLY with fixes that could be beneficial to everyone, every profession, and people who want nothing to do with PvP as well as people who do. I'm seeing a lot of "fixes" from the devs lately that look suspiciously like kneejerk reactions to people on their respective boards complaining about their own, and only their own, profession. And hey, what a surprise, I'm seeing a LOT more angry people on the forums lately.


Not, of course, that the devs care, since they are perpetually silent except for the rare tuesday "tip" that repeats either commonsense or something from the manual. But I'd like to think that things could get done a lot more efficiently and by making a lot less people mad by working together rather than by telling people to go to their forum and work out their own problems. Let's not turn this into "survival of the loudest".

this question is easily answered. its all about **edit** size. a scatter pistol is activated by the **edit** and only bounty hunters have small enough ones to do it. Master Pistoleers are just too well endowed to even consider using this weapon. so it seems they either gotta 1. nerf master pistoleer **edit** size or 2. rework the trigger on that thing.

The reason I'm telling them to go back to their own board is because they are NOT TRYING TO HELP. They want us to shut up so the dev's dont' nerf them, meanwhile we're broken and their having all the fun with our skills. No, like I said in one of my other posts, UNLESS you have something constructive or factual (something like that), don't bother posting. And like I said again, I'm tired of them (BH) telling me that pistol knownledge and working's is not my thing when my title is PISTOLEER. You want BH to have their own weapon, I'm fine with that, more power to you guys, but guess what, don't call it pistol, don't call it rifle, don't call it carbine, give it a distinct BH name so their not confused with any other type of weapon, and don't make it give pistol exp because then it's just a pistol with a typo, same for rifle and carbine.

The point thats being made is...We are **edit**ing Pistoleers...we dont use carbines, we dont use rifles, no cannons...flamethrowers...we use umm, guess what...A PISTOL, we have devoted our life to it and i better be able to use every **edit**in pistol and be ht ebest with it...Oh the BHs complain...but you get to use less skill points, well i say **edit** you...add up how much exp it takes to get master pistoleer...then they say but the other things are great for oyu...the defense vs knockdown and stuff...well as good as it seems, this **edit** works 1/1000...i have been in over 100 duels and have not resisted a knockdown, and for you pricks to be able to handle a pistol better then the profession that should be best with a pistol ( guess thats why they call it pistoleer ) now for certification...yay BHs once again get a better pistoleer then a master pistoleer can ( im Master Pistoleer and still use a scout...where as a BH uses the nifty little scatter pistol ( im not a bounty hunter but by the description and the name im guessing it can hit multiple targets...wow...and the pistoleers **edit**ed up the ass once again....

This whole argument will disappear from the pistoleers once there are DX2's that are better than scatter pistols. Was I bummed when I couldn't use a scatter pistol? sure. What I'm really annoyed at is that I can't get a DX2 that I would carry in almost all situations.

True we Get our own unique weapon, its just a perk.

Pistoleers have their great defenses (when they work) thats a perk.

Each Class gets their own perks.

yes Pistoleer cost 3x the weapons exp.

But BH cost about 2x the amount of points. Points are FAR more important then exp.

And if the scatter pistol looked like a shotgun and was called a hand cannon?

True, what if the Launcher Pistol were renamed. Would you stop crying then?Mini-Launcher and Hand-Held Shotgun. There ya go.


BTW, I am a Pistoleer/Commando, so this IS one of my forums

Like I said in my last post:


"You want BH to have their own weapon, I'm fine with that, more power to you guys, but guess what, don't call it pistol, don't call it rifle, don't call it carbine, give it a distinct BH name so their not confused with any other type of weapon, and don't make it give pistol exp because then it's just a pistol with a typo, same for rifle and carbine. "



You want to have a weapon that looks like a sawed off shotgun and is called a handcannon, Great, i'm all for it. But if it gives pistol experience, guess what, it's a pistol! Plane and simple as that. Make it a skill that only BH can go up in with that weapon, hell, give you two weapons, one for novice BH and one when you master BH, but it better not give you Rifle/carbine/pistol exp or else guess what, it is a rifle/carbine/pistol with a typo in the name, or a weaponsmith edited the name.


Once again for those who do not read to well, I DON"T CARE IF YOU HAVE YOUR OWN WEAPON, AS LONG AS IT'S NOT A WEAPON THAT WE ARE SUPPOSE TO BE MASTER'S IN AND ARE NOT ALLOWED TO USE. That is just rediculous. like telling a race car driver that he can't drive a minivan because he's not sertified for something that slow or big? Common, get real (still laughing at the person who said he can't drive a squadcar, sorry, IT"S A CAR)
