The gunner update means death to all chaos clones. A chaos clone? Pfft! RAINBOW POLARIS SPAM. As for the Jemps, they will be stronger than ever before....
Well, if you didn't notice...
I actually think the new guns will make Lockdown much more interesting.
Let the lag from Pulsar spam in every game begin.
Most people with Callahan's either have super good accuracy and is pro, or doesn't know a thing about Lockdown weaponry, and choice A is 90% of the time.
I don't see how a Shadow Callahan will make it interesting. I haven't even seen the new guns, but I'm sure a select few might be interesting in LD.
From the posts above, it sounds like a new Pulsar line.
Oh, boy.
A freeze-stun switch would immobilize the shooter, but dish out a fair amount of damage. Being a fair Callahan user in lockdown (mind you I use no damage boosts)I can say I can't wait to try it out!
It is called gunner update, so of course it gonna be a huge balancing.
Wait
Maybe all the items are balanced and everyone is just too darn blind by something to see it. Ever think of that?
When new gear comes out, it is rarely ever balanced with the rest of the game. That is true in just about every MMO, and usually requires the devs to do patches shortly after.
Oh god, Rainbow Polaris spam. It's the Rainbow Screen of Shard Bomb Death all over again.
Good:
+ New guns and armors
+ Death to Skolver clones
Bad:
- Death to LockDown (MIGHT be good)
- Death to any team with a Polaris user
