Hammerburst. I haven't played since I finished my achievements so I don't know about the new updates but back a few months ago I would destroy teams with my hammerburst. I got called out for using a modded sooo many times, even my friends couldnt be convinced. Honestly its not about how fast you shoot, its the rhythm, there ARE cooldown times between shots. You just have to find your groove and you can just eat people alive with the thing. It's the number one weapon besides your one hit killers (boomshot, torque, sniper). Personally it's my second favorite weapon, which is nice, since you are always holding a power weapon
2.0 kdr talkin here so you decide whos right
Also I use hammerburst in campaign as ammo is everywhere so you can let loose.
Also I need to add that you should always ditch the shotgun, because hammer>shotgun easy. I absolutely love shooting a two-piece scrub without walking backwards when they are point blank because they mistime their melee because they didn't calculate the stopping power of hammerburst and melee too early. Shit is so cash.
I could talk all day about this weapon, I basically used to advertise it and bash lancer users as automatic BKs unless they were using it for fun. Still do.
Let me geuss, that KD is in public, not MLG? I thought so. There is no gratificated or no indication of skill of a KD in public, it just means your above average, better than most people, guarantee your host via a computer, or you play with complete scrubs. I have a 2.7 and I dont talk shit about it.
Anyway, on topic.
Definately hammerburst in public. No one knows how to deal with it, and its easy to get a kill. Only time I dont use a hammerburst is when im playing with my MLG team.
Lancer is the weapon choice of 90% of MLG players, in alot of ways, the lancer is better than the hammerburst. The hammerburst is a close/medium range weapon because of the recoil. On the other hand, the lancer has almost no recoil. In MLG, if your good with your team, you learn to focus fire on a guy. If you have four people shooting the same guy he'll drop in less than a second. With one or more actives on your teams lancers, it just makes your chances of knocking him down a success. And you want to do this since people can only drop twice, then they're dead on the third time, and if you have a boltok, shoot him in the head and he says byebye, because it will take 1 headshot instead of two.
