FF HW
 

Any give me any tips on him that you might use? I just had my worst round as a HW i dont know if its cause my head isnt in the game today or im just sucking it up. What do you have?

Well I wouldn't get to used to the 1.11 HW b/c in the next patch things are changing. Mainly with the spin up and overheat and the CoF, the HW is pretty messed right now, so it's not just you it's the character.

THANK GOD! LMAO i thought i had been playing like shit a lot but its the HW

The Hwguy is great, but your finger gets tired after a while of playing, it's all about tapping the mouse1.. :(

hes good when used right....i notice the change from 1.0 to 1.11 with the HW i wasnt around when the first patch came out. I hope patch 2 fixes this!

Whoever it was that approved adding the over heat to the heavy weapons guy should be kicked in the nuts. Whoever suggested overheating during the development should be kicked in the nuts. And I dont mean a gentle love tap to the nuts, I mean a football drop kick kinda kick in the nuts.

The over heat was a terrible idea to start with, its just freaking lame. I am so glad to see its being removed.

At some point in FF development someone said - "I dont like the HW, lets make him a whimp." and GUESS WHAT - it worked.

The HW in 1.11 is pretty good if you use him right. I.E. putting him in the doorway of a common path that the offense takes and abusing his non-pushyness, large health, and close-combat excelence.

But that's about it.

Since FF was released, the HW has been a whimp and every patch just made him that much worse.

In TFC the noobs loved the HW because he was just point and click. Now its point click, over heat, release, click, over heat, release, click, over heat - WTF people? We cant get at least one (just 1) simple class that is not hard for noobs to play?

Well what annoys me about it is that overheating is THE WHOLE DAMN POINT of the gatling gun design. The barrels are separated and spun to prevent them from overheating. This has been the purpose of them ever since they were invented back in the 1860's. Building a minigun that overheats is like building a plane that can't fly off the ground. Anyway, I realize the game has nothing to do with reality, it's just a pet peeve of mine.

i just want to be able to take shit down with him

the 1.0 version of FF was too powerful, 1.1 just a complete pansy, 1.11, getting there, but still nope

i cant wait till hes normal

The HW is pretty good if you use him right.

1.0 HW was not a whimp

No, the 1.1 HW was a wimp.

Anyway, if you HW versus HW, aim a little high with your cone so a lot of those shots hit the head. A lot of people aim their crosshair at the center of that opposing mass of fat - while more bullets are hitting him, they would be doing much more damage if they hit him in the head.

yea, i know that. 1.0 however, was not

no...the 1.0 fatty was a walking sniper riffle that shot 300 shells in a min. and had 300 armor!

...bullets don't do more damage to the head. Except for snipers.

.... 1.0 fatty was overpowerd thats what ive been saying. :rolleyes: w/e i dont care

HW 1.2 better be good in clan matchs!
