Typhoon Is Broken: Video Proof Here

Post » Mon Feb 25, 2013 3:39 pm

The Test is Constructive Criticism (so the haters can stay off my back). In fact this might be more QA then has ever been done on this gun at CryTek HQ. 13 minutes showing precisely why the typhoon is a joke, and is the most broken OP gun as a "Default" Weapon I have ever seen in a game. If this were just another alien gun, I would have no problem with it. in fact I would pick it up and use it, because both sides would have at least one right? Or One in the middle of the map to fight over (even better!). But as a Default weapon its completely unbalanced for mid to Close and even long range if caught unaware of the Typhoon Orbital Strike Beam. See this Test Video below played on another person's host connection. His Feline with Rapid Fire is almost always outclassed by the Typhoon with or without rapid fire. And for those who complain about Auto A, I show what would happen to you from someone cloaked shooting at you without armor 28 feet away. (1.03 second and your dead. Call of Duty says hello!)

it's far from a default gun. maybe they should move it more within the unlock? it's currently level 15. I have no problem with it. if I run into a team running it, i switch classes and fight fire with fire.

Also, how do you know you weren't getting headshots? It puts out multiple bullets and could easily have gotten his head. Just saying....

That's the thing though. If the only counter is to use the same thing, there is definitely a problem.

Calling it broken, and posting an overly long video showing a better weapon beating a lesser isn't really helping to get it nerfed.

You should've tested it against the k-volt with rapid fire. Also Including the Scar with rapid fire and aim assist, as well as the M60 also with rapid and aim and see how it fairs. Might as well load them up with match barrel or muzzle brake as well. I would like to see those tests

Don't forget M.I.K.E....
