Worst weapon in the game, cooldown just insane, it explodes most of the times, using a gauss in one torso on xl mech is almost suicide. and they keep nerfing the poor thing.... why not reduce the damage and remove all that stupid nonesenses of charging the weapon? why not make it generate more heat? using a gauss is the worst, non-firendly experience in the game. even in a grid iron. and steam players get the benefit of the nerf just to make them feels confortable? so u are giving gifts to the new ones, and make the olders suffer? just dont get it. oh, and i want my SPEED TWEAK BACK!!!! i work really hard to get it.

No.

[AbyssalTyrant]

Cry more.

[Paigan]

<irony>Also, please remove lasers of all kinds, ultra ACs, LRMs and streaks. And, as they are useless, flamers and MGs. Maybe LBX, too.</irony>

i kinda wish they would quit nerfing the damn thing. but meh i can ac10 with reckless abandon now. my ctf-im approves of this.

[Mcgral18]

FYI...still one of the best weapons in the game.

Quirkless, it surpasses many things, even at 6.25s.
5.5s would have been better, but PGI went full PGI, forgetting +0.75s from the charge.

They didn't forget.

no.

[El Bandito]

Still see both sides using Gauss to good effect in CW.

[Unreliable Mercenary]

Use it for its intended purpose and it seems to work fine. I wouldn't try and brawl with it though, that is asking for an explosion.

[sycocys]

Worst weapon in the game - wrong. Flamers still exist.

cooldown just insane - not really, its nearly hitscan ballistic.

it explodes most of the times, using a gauss in one torso on xl mech is almost suicide. -- so?

why not reduce the damage and remove all that stupid nonesenses of charging the weapon? why not make it generate more heat? using a gauss is the worst, non-firendly experience in the game. - it's also still one of the most deadly ppfld weapons in the game, deal with it.

even in a grid iron. - the GI is still one of the fastest guass shooters around - but *gasp* now you have to actually plan your attack and positioning rather than shooting guass off nearly as fast as ac5 in strafing runs.

so u are giving gifts to the new ones, and make the olders suffer? - possibly the dumbest part of your argument.

oh, and i want my SPEED TWEAK BACK!!!! i work really hard to get it. - oh wait, I stand corrected.

Sorry, was that a request to rebalance the Gauss or to remove it from the game or to ***** about speed tweak having been reduced a bit? Amongst all the salty tears I kinda lost track of what you were moaning incessantly and non-constructively about.

[Cyborne Elemental]

Might as well.

Its complete garbage unless you've got an IS mech quirked up the yang, then its only back to normal.

There is a difference between balancing a weapon, and gutting a weapon into worthlessness, They apparently can't figure out which is which.

[Appogee]

If you don't like it, don't use it.

Personally I find it a good mid range weapon to couple with lasers.

Because, oh no, lasers with gaus takes some practice to git gud with. And all those structure buffed IS mechs just can't stand up to the super meta gaus/laser combo anymore.

Seriously, the synergy between the two was solid, but you can lose it quickly if you aren't careful and when it does explode you're going to be in bad shape if not dead.

Honestly, I didn't see a big number of complaints about it before, I don't think it was necessary.

[BigBenn]

Nah. Removing it solves nothing. Fixing it does.

Remove the charge up and increase the health back up to 10. Issues solved.

[CDLord HHGD]

Just remove it from all YOUR mechs! There! Your problem with it is SOLVED!

Thank you, I'm here all week.

Bill's in the mail.

[CygnusX7]

Must be trolling.

[Clownwarlord]

No ... if anything remove the charge up on it.
