Bring Back Double Gun

  • Take out the stupid animation before switching weapons... We should have a choice if we want to run two guns. Before the animation was a thing I used to kill under skilled players just fine and now it seems to come down to who gets the last swing of a cutlass. I ran double gun ever since I started playing and Now I pretty much have to use a sword. For those of you that are on xbox and think double gun is op because of pc players just simply opt out of cross play between the two platforms and you won’t have to worry about them. I’m an xbox player btw so this isn’t coming from a pc players mouth.

  • @ttvbizqu the double gun is actually the thing that showed no skill, as there was no defense against it because insta-kill effect of siad double gunning.

    Double gunning took no skill just a flick of the scroll wheel and mashing the mouse button was one way achieving said double gun.

    So no the double gun shouldn’t come back.

    This is from a pc player

  • But it is back....It's very easy to do. There is still a way to shoot two bullets almost instantly....

  • I hope they fix in completley now.

    Constraint cutlass use plus one firearm of choice.
    End of Story!

  • I never liked double-gun. But I can't say that combat has improved any since launch. Rare keep changing things and it keeps getting clunkier and less exciting.

    Personally I would like to see them totally over-haul the whole hand-to-hand combat system and replace it with .... pretty much anything else.

  • I personally believe the fix shoud have been your cutless was a permanent fix on your pirate. I mean you're a pirate, what pirate doesn't always carry his sword? Then you simply just pick which gun you want to bring with you for the occasion.

  • @bkj-seven hey I figured out how to do it but I don’t think that the second shot registers. There were two times where I hit both shots got two hit markers and the guy didn’t die. Any tips?

  • Offffffffffffffffff. cough

  • @ttvbizqu Double gunner dosent like the fact that he cant use a cheap expliot anymore
    rolls on deck laughing

  • So your complaint is that you die more easily now? The issue with the double gun was that if people were on your ship double gunning then they could spawn kill you with ease. It simply leveled the fighting field. My thoughts are use your guns, but get better with the cutlass. Good luck to you mate!

    With the current update released and containing the arena it wouldn't surprise me to see a combat overhaul in the future.

    I completely agree with this, my only problem is that this somewhat hampers the freedom you have now. When Rare ever introduces more melee weapons they might want to introduce a melee specific weapon slot.

  • @Hynieth yes less freedom of choice, but if they cannot handle it and people exploit it still, they need to fix it.
    I once made a thread about inaccuracy of firearms and that these guns need to jam for 1% of the time you use it. I wouldn't mind they have only the cutlass and firearms with 1 or 2 shots that have 1% chance to not work.

  • @ttvbizqu that's just the bad hit registration in this game....been like that since launch. I don't double gun myself, I prefer to have a sword on me. Although double gunning is pretty simple now, after the delay was removed for wielding a weapon after sprinting (hint, hint).....I'm sure we've all had shots hit that don't count though. I've sniped a guy in the water 5 times with 5 hit markers (he didn't eat any bananas) before and he didn't die, this has happened more than once too. Sometimes the hit registration is good, sometimes it's awful. It's just the way it is with the client side hit reg. Hopefully it's fixed one day...That's another discussion entirely though.

  • lol. help i used a cheap mechanic to make myself think i was good at combat, they took it away.. help me...

  • @ttvbizqu no because double gun is for people who aren't good at the game yet and when they took it away it made people get good

  • For my crew, it was always the xbox players who were actually doing the double gun loadout. Half was PC, but none of us used it. We didn't use it for some arbitrary reason like honor, we just preferred sword/rifle at the time. So before people chime in that I only want it back because I need a cheap tactic, just no.

    I have zero problems if they revert that change, I at the time and even today, thought their existed counterplay and strategies that exploited the loadout's weaknesses. From my perspective it felt like people just couldn't adapt to it. However, I doubt they will bring it back, that's just the reality of the situation.

    NO

  • @ttvbizqu that's why the Cutlass is now actually good, because it a tally takes skill to sword to sword combat not just flicking the scroll wheel and insta killing, IRL that's not possible. But it's a game, I liked it but I thought it was unfair even though I used it before it got removed, just use 2 guns it's easier

  • Matey this isn't Fortnite we don't double pump people, at least thats what Double Gun reminded me of. Just practice your Cutlass skills and play "meta".

    I agree the weapon balance right now isn't perfect. I am still new to the game yet good at pvp for my playtime and never got to experience double gun but from what I saw players like Summit1G do its just broken.

    The devs from Rare seem very nice and listen to their community so in case one reads this here is my opinion on the weapons (best to worst):

    • Cutlass has good balance between skill and ease of use don't change it.
    • Eye of Reach is also balanced now but a range buff would be nice to help.
    • Pistol has no real use other than assisting Eye of Reach and with the utility of a Cutlass I find myself choosing only one gun. The Eye of Reach is simply a better Pistol if you have the skill to use it there is no trade-off. I would suggest a slight reload buff to the Pistol.
    • Blunderbuss is only good in PvE, the spread is just too big for it to be used outside of Cutlass range. I know its the only weapon that can one shot players but thats irrelevant if others can kill you before you can even get in range or stunlock if you miss.
