DevReply Why is the sniper cannon balanced?!?

I agree, SC is not OP case closed. If SC was so OP, then 95% of people would use it

 

Yea they say it’s an OP Gun but I’ve been the only one to send actual screen shots of games showing the damage output at the end of the games and how I compare to other players without it. If you haven’t seen em, then I’m sorry you’ll have to scroll back a bit. But yea my match histories show that about 8/10 games I play I’m not the OP top damage dealer everyone makes me out to be with my Sniper.

 

I saw already; there is no point saying it is OP. Crits aren't the only thing that makes a gun OP. What about non - crit damage. Also, u barely need to aim, ruining ur accuracy in the ;long run

 

Yea I might not have developed decent aiming skills if it wasn’t for running a FlareGun and Standard Canon. Every weapon has its own lead required depending on your targets speed and direction. Eventually anyone competent enough figures it out. Running a Sniper doesn’t ruin anyone’s aim unless that’s all you run.

 

true

At my infamy range on my mini account, you don't need to lead your shots with a standard cannon most of the time as most ships aren't very fast
On my main account, it was a different story

 

One of my friends has a lvl 50 epic sniper cannon and it deals 704 damage and he said that his highest critical damage is 2.5k and he use only crit chance perks

 

You can't decide which item is better or the best by a game played by different players (skills)
And also why you did 6k damage when enemy don't have a fixer and 1k when they did have a fixer , it is bcuz of situation
So a match result just mean (who won and how everyone handled that situation)
And also that damage (from most of players) was from others weapons too

 

Your missing the point. The point being that there’s no evidence of an actual match reflecting an UnBalanced amount of damage. Damage is your issue and the amount being Deal is non reliable enough to call for a nerf. Obviously every match is different and I’m glad you realize that. What you should also realize is that if Sniper was truly OP it would reflect in most matches regardless of the gameplay. However it doesn’t, making your argument invalid. Hope you understand the full scope of this. If not than I can not truly prove to you any more that sniper doesn’t deal an OP amount of damage any more than you can lead a horse to water and make home drink it. You’ll believe whatever want regardless of evidence I provide.

 

I can say this is false. Because , even I have a tier 5 epic which does 707 damage. And the maximum crit that I have got is 1950. Most of the time it ranges from 1600-1800, but when on fire it deals around 1950.

It's not even logical for a sniper with to crit for 350%. Maybe he might have mistaken there.

 

I understand

But my point is (iam not saying that sniper deal alot of damage ,but it deal more than what it should)
(my English become so bad here , sorry for that)
Ok now what iam trying to say from the beginning is
sniper has 2x range of blast
And 2x speed of blast
And 5x crit chance
(Without training or perks)
so sniper cannon should deal 1/2 damage of blast cannon (to be equaled with others cannons) , it deal more than 1/2 of blast cannon damage , i wont count that little difference , so no problem with that you can benifits of that

But then there crit chance that destroy the whole equation that accelerate that 1/2 to even higher that blast cannon damage (but not always maybe even less than sometimes) but considering crit damage it become 2/3 of blast canmon damage ,so even if sniper cannon isn't OP , it still do more than what it should .

 

These guys got to stop relying on hearsay. But the good thing about all this is the Devs know what the Sniper can and can’t do. And cause of that it’s not getting a nerf. So I’m done arguing this point to these guys, they’ll get nothing out of it anyways.

 

Ok so you just want to see it NERFED, regardless of it being balanced. Regardless of it not unfairly winning battles.

Wow

 

And they also know how much players use it and how much player need a long range cannon

And from (nerf sniper cannon )thread they known that alot of players might leave the game , so they will do what is the best for business

 

True. My own sniper below crits maximum ~1950 when the target is burning and ~1800 when not burning.

 

Read it all till the end

 

Yesterday i was hittted by a sniper cannon and it was a crit hit and i lost 3k just from that and it was a t5 epic snoper cannon

So how that happened?

 

You have probably mistaken, here are some possible explanations:
1) It was not a sniper. Blast cannon crit 3k would sound more realistic.
2) More than one weapon hit you at once. Sometimes you only see the damage combined in your screen if you get simultaneously hit by multiple projectiles.
3) You simply remember wrong.
Epic snipers simply won't crit for 3k. Even if you use all crit damage perks, the crit would approximately be no higher than 2,4k.

 

Can u share the replay please, without replay we can't judge anything.
I can also say that I got hit by a bc for 5000 yesterday. =_=

Without any relevant proof I am not going to believe anything. Before u mentioned that sniper crits for 2.5k which is 350% of base damage , which is Bs.

So, I suggest u to come up with concrete facts which is true.

 

Your the only one not proving it with a screen shot or replay. Post the replay dude or else how do we know your not lying.

C’mon
