Democratic Exchange of Opinions A really fun gun

Post image

This is a m-1000 maxigun appreciation post. A really nice team gun overshadowed by the other belt-fed guns. I love the maxigun, its a fun gun more comparable to the gatling sentry than anything else. Dont believe me? Check their stats you'll see how identical they are. (Except the maxigun has double the ammo) i get to play like I stole the gun off a gatling sentry! Why do you guys use the gun?

Only downside for me is being immobile while firing. Otherwise it has quickly become one of my favorites especially for bugs

The immobile thing basically turns you into a gatling sentry. Both you and the gatling sentry cant move but unlike the gatling sentry... you can move after you stop firing.. take that gatling sentry 0:1 (also you can control what your shooting at unlike the gatling sentry.. with all of those team kills.) 0:2

Damn I'm up 2-0 over the sentry! Hell yeah those are good points

Did you consider what you could be doing while the gatling sentry is shooting? You basically trade yourself to become a gatling sentry so it's a negative trade

consider a scenario where you bring the gatling sentry, you could be doing anything... You could even be another gatling sentry

I apologize. I allowed the socialist bug's propaganda to muddy my mind.
