Hi, I'm a Natascha user.

Perfect Cell · 02-10-2012, 05:55 PM

I like the Natascha, I really do, even if it has been nerfed a lot. The slowdown is good against Scouts(even if slowdown is a bit stoopid) and I plan to name mine "STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM" when I find the time to get a darn name tag. I don't mind when other people say "Y U NO USE TOMISLAV", for I tell them I like The Natascha.

(Spy-cicle)

But seriously, I do like the Natascha, even if it has been nerfed to hell. This is serious.

Yea I use it sometimes too, I even named mine naughty natty. Its devastating to demos and scoots... also anyone stupid enough to get close to you.

do you want a cookie or something?

A Dakolah's Bar would be nice, thanks.

I only have a fishcake sorry

I've got some Dalokahs, here you go.

I use Natascha rarely, but it's quite a nice minigun if you know how that it has spinup time.

Natascha users anonymous thread.

The first step is admitting it.

This said, natascha is awesome. Dun care if it was nerfed, I wasnt there for the original.

Natascha is useless at the moment compared to Sasha and Tomislav. I loved it, but right now there is no reason to use it.

Funchar?

Flambard · 02-11-2012, 07:32 AM

Now you're temping me to use it because of "STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM"

Draggy · 02-11-2012, 01:33 PM

I planned on naming mine "You Rebel Scum" but Natascha is really good and unappreciated.

Agent Clank · 02-11-2012, 02:10 PM

I called mine SKILL CANNON.

I'm a Natascha user. I actually like CTF, you see. I love getting a Scout who has my Intel, slowing him down, then either using the "Showdown" taunt, or fisting him to death, depending on what weapon I'm using.

Jsnazz · 02-11-2012, 03:34 PM

hardly anyone use Natascha anymore because their dmg output are weak and forcing player to eat stuff to get their dmg up is a waste of time knowining other class just blast you to death.

What they should do is add mini crits if enemy that are slowing down use their weapon.

Thunderchin · 02-11-2012, 04:49 PM

Yeah, Natascha has been nerfed to death. I know, I use a Natascha. I still love my Natascha, to the point where I have named mine "Kida Sharranah" after the woman I love IRL.

She's great for ambushing, I find. Now if they took off the 30% longer spinup time!

Munkyman720 · 02-11-2012, 05:11 PM

I don't care about Natascha from a gameplay perspective. Use it, don't use it, I don't care.

But from a mechanics perspective, Natascha is simply game-breaking. I don't mean that it will make it super easy for one team to win against another, or that a Natascha Heavy will always win 1v1 against another player. I mean it literally breaks an important aspect of the game. Namely, the fact that when you get behind cover, a Natascha Heavy with decent ping can still hit you with a few bullets. If one of you has ping over 80-90 or so, god help you. No matter how quickly you think you got behind that wall, you will probably die assuming he has the slightest ability to aim (unless you have a Medic or something).

Again, it's not a balance issue. This is one of the few weapons in the game that is literally game-breaking, and it deserves to be nerfed into oblivion so that nobody will use it. Slowdown is simply a broken mechanic in a game where lag compensation/etc is a factor, and 100% chance for slowdown on a hitscan weapon that never needs to reload means that the issues caused by it are only magnified.
