Bear_ Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) The Z-6I Rotary Blaster Cannon has a noticeable bug on its fire-rate following the initial burst. I am unsure if this is intentionally bugged or something that has not been fixed. If it is intentional, I have thought of a series of nerfs to justify having a weapon such as this on the server in its "un-bugged state."Z-6I (Current State)RPM: initial RPM of 1200 that decreases to 300RPM Damage: 18 Mobility: 100% Z-6I (Potential Change) RPM: 900 RPM Fixed Damage: 15-17 Mobility: 60-70% at the maximumI believe the above change limits the potential for something too overpowered if this weapon were it to be added back without limitations being placed. The potential changes instead potentially add back a Heavy Support weapon into RP and combat that could be of more use than just raw DPS. After discussion with other command teams that have used this and other rotary cannon variants, they have requested to amend this post to include the Z-6 and the Z-2. (I don't believe I am leaving any of them out).

Keegan Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 +Support This change would be very good and allow this weapon to be used in an effective capacity. Seems like pretty good numbers for the nerf as well.

Bell Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 +Support Fixing the Z-6I, Z-6, and Z-2 weapons will allow for Heavy Weapons specialties to be viable on the server as, well, Heavy Weapons, instead of "LMG guy". This will allow for more diversity in player loadouts as well. Current: N/A Former: Stormtrooper Commander Grim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty certain the problem with these weapons is inside the TFA pack and not actually the weapon itself as I've seen this bug for like 5-6 years coming back due to TFA updates etc etc. Should be an easy fix for the devs and a very welcome one!

I have heard so many varying potential issues that I did not know which one to believe. Figured a suggestion post might be my best first option to start narrowing it down haha.

Manager Beckett Posted January 16 Manager Share Posted January 16 The bug where the RPM randomly changes to 300 is not by intention, it's a bug from the addon creator, updating the pack might provide a possible fix. This will be sorted within the next couple days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
