They're fucking bullshit. I hate this crap more than anything in S4. And dislike a lot of things in S4. -___- Like cannon. And TB. And other annoying weapons. But you can deal with them. They aren't instant kill pieces of shit like the bomb.

Whoever made this weapon is a moron and the people who let it into the game are the same. I don't understand why they want people to use a weapon that uses NO SKILL AT ALL. Holy shit my 4 year old brother could press a number right before he dies. I hate it. Haaaaate it.

You can just throw it before you die and kill anyone close. It forces people to back up way too much. If you don't back up, you die. And if you do, you let them score.

Does anyone deal with it any way i dont know? i asked this a while back but maybe since then people figured out how to fight it. q____q cause its just making me rage.

That's the reason that sum ppl uses it .-.

It's simple to use, and very effective. Do you want more ?

Just gotta kill the guy faster then he can throw the bomb... Or, just stop shooting when he throws it.

No need to rage ;]

Here's my simple solution. Melee them so that they flinch and can't throw it, or shoot them at mid/long range so that their bombs don't even reach you. Honestly, though, I BARELY see people use bombs, let alone effectively.

There are factors such as skill that come into play... Like the rest of us, you must learn to deal with and overcome them before they overcome you.
or you could buy AP, but.........

It just frustrates me lol. Being knocked into a random place and not being able to control my character is annoying. A good cannon user combined with an fp cannon is my mortal enemy.

I want it to be harder to use maybe? I mean...yeah its simple and effective. That's the point. It takes no skill to use for something that can have such a big impact.


And I can deal with bomb users themselves most of the time. I always, alwaaaays do better than someone with a bomb. To me it would be like having 2 weapons lol. But when you combine a couple suicide bombs with full prem runners, it's dumb. They just live through the bomb, run in and score. And you're either dead or too far away to pick it up.

I feel like it lowers the gap between people with skill and people without.

A simple solution would be to just not have it explode when the person dies. I have no idea why that crap is even in the game. q__q And i run into bombs quite often in NA.

The idea is this Box. The bomb explodes when you die, you fix it by making the bomb act like a grenade and even if the person dies it still has to set itself for detonating.

There is however a bit of skill in the big picture with it. Timing, you need to know how to time that bomb right. You time it too soon and you might kill an ally and if its timed too late no one dies.

I would say bombs are the bomb. Or is it bombs are a bomb? I can't ever understand how the kids talk.

This isn't really a 'hey, help me cope with this' section. It's a rant area, where someone can say what they want without the fear of being judged. Aimed at the people trying to say 'deal with it' *Cough*

What he's trying to get at is the same thing I do when I bitch about bombs - It's not the same S4 League anymore. Now you have to worry about a lame ass gimmick that wasn't previously in a very fun game. Same thing with AP++, FP's etc. It's changed so much from the single digit patches that I've just uninstalled at this point - The primary reason is bomb and airgun. They just change the game too drastically in a way that makes it un-enjoyable if even one of those weapons is on either side. Either too easy or too difficult with one there. I'm not even frustrated at AP++ anymore when I run PEN sets - it's easy as shit to counter. Just move a little bit more to the right than usual, their aim sux so they can't adapt to a different speed target. Bomb is just an instant death zone created at will that you cannot dodge at all due to the suicide bug. Airgun, same concept. Instantly created zone (a very wide zone at that) of which you deny anyone at will because it is so easy. It takes all skill out of the game because it's NOT hard. I'd rather play a game like, oh, Bloodline Champions (Good game IMO) or League of Legends where that kinda bull shit is (99%) non existent. Or at least gets patched, fixed, and balanced somewhat quickly.

TL;DR
Bomb, air gun, etc. are game breaking, stop denying it, look back to patch 9, and ask yourself if you're having as much fun now as back then.
