Bor can u do something about the sniper plz plZ

[@theemeraldninja5038]

In my opinion, only reload barriers on weapons should exceed 25% defense. Passive barriers on weapons should NEVER exceed 25% defense. If a weapon does have a passive barrier with 25% defense, it should be weak offensively in exchange

[@59master60]

Agreed

[@De_yapper]

W opinion

[@De_yapper]

Actually, just nerf barrier to have 10 percent barrier at most

[@De_yapper]

No barriers including reloading barriers should exceed 10 percent

[@StrawberryShartCak3]

​@@De_yapperNah, reload barruers shouldn't just be 10%, that's too low. Passive barriers should, however, not exceed 25% at most.

[@altikam]

ecko's really going all in to fix this mess the game has. Kudos to you

[@Zotereal]

i think the biggest problem in pg3d is the unavailability of weapons for new players pg3d use their weapons as a selling point and in their ads they keep talking about "over 1000 guns" but the problem is most people dont even own half and that makes pg3d very repetitive most players use the same weapons without varaiaty, and there are weapons that people dont even know exist, most non mythic weapons are forgotten and never remembered unless they are insanely good for example full moon rifle, oh deer, scout rifle,Mega-Horn these are just examples of these weapon which need to come back in some sort of way either in the armory or lottery, and another problem is weapon damage most weapons damage is bad the weapons i mentioned earlier arent just not used because theyre forgotten but also because their damage is terrible they need serious buffs to become usable, entire weapon catagories need buffs miniguns,autos,semi-autos they all need serious buffs to even be considered usable

[@richardtaveras3593]

I really hope the devs watch this series, could you do a video about the bonus points attribute in weapons/sets? It’s insane how you could get 20 more kills than someone but they can still win if they just abuse cash gun and mafia set and it makes deathmatch almost unplayable.

[@Maybe_a_furry]

Good topic i hope ecko sees it

[@daybroken2281]

I think the best thing to do is give Barrier weaknesses, that is, have weapons that do MORE damage to barrier players than other weapons. I think Piercing Shot and Wall-Break should do a certain amount of barrier ignore, while Shield Penetration does what it does to shields and ignores it entirely.

[@RazorPF]

100% Agreed! They should also remove the stacking capability as well, to balance out the barrier effect even more, That way it can't be abused. I would suggest you make a video, addressing how abusive Gravity Attribute is. Supernova Generator for example.

[@BarrelFullOfKrackers]

I think barrier is fine how it is, I think the way to fix it is a weapon with piercing ignores 50% of barrier, and weapons with shield pen ignore barrier completely. So like if someone is running a rusted revolver and royal combo if I put on clockwork sniper I can still 1 to 2 shot them even with all barrier effects

[@dgdavi5936]

I think a good way to change the weakening effect is by makining it affect the weapon that you are holding. However if you switch to a different gun, the debuff does not effect them and the weaknesses will go away from the other gun that was effected. Just a thought 👍

[@aidanblake3269]

It’s basically the rage attribute but the opposite if people are confused and rages like say if you were in a fight and they hurt you more you hurt them. That’s what it’s like. And maybe there was a gadget that it could make it harder to break the barrier. Maybe they could replace the royal guardian with it.

[@spyro91rep.productions22]

The barrier is annoying and the pulse rifle and now the new weapon cash gun 2.0 is really insane. I can’t even touch them when I fight there, but I keep fighting them anyway. Pixel Gun 3D needs to be fixed too. I’m very sorry. Echo that you’re having a hard time for one year for this. Hopefully if they don’t fix it soon, this game is going to be dead with you.

Watch ads with an afk option would be a good thing for pg3d including f2p, i don't properly know if this should be active just ingame or else while you're doing other things (like sleep or study) but this a good option for us players to rush these annoying ads and also getting enough f2p currency in the game.

[@StrawberryShartCak3]

Huh?

[@Randyom_PG]

@PIXELECKO My personal opinion on how to fix the barrier affect: I think barrier should be a new module for armor that can be upgraded, sort of like a Minecraft enchantment. This could be more balanced as it would take a slot. This would lead to my second take, Pixel gun 3D's meta is full of 1shot weapons. I think all guns with barrier should get reworked to a new ability called Survive. This is how it works: Are immune to being 1 shoted once and you are left at 1 health. It would only work once per respawn and only if you are holding the weapon. This ability exists in a game called The Battle Cats, and it allows you to continue to do your last hits on the enemy before they hit you again.

[@AJ0127alt]

Hello all! i made a list of all barriers and reflection weapons a while ago and i think this is not a bad time to share it all and how it works! Barrier stacking works by taking priority of gadgets first, so say you are using turtle shell, it will prioritize the 60% reduction, and if you use say Eco Rifle, it would take 10% of the 40% left from the 60 taken by turtle shell. this would make it a 64% reduction. the most you can stack is turtle, rusted, weakening, and charm, all at once, which lowers it to a maximum of 95% reduction. (60>80>90>95) PRIMARY: Excalibur - 15% reduction Deadly Shark - 30% reduction Leaders Best Friend - 20% reduction Like Booster - 7% damage reflection Mobile Outpost - 0% reduction BACKUP: Rusted revolver - 50% reduction Gangsta Shield - 10% reduction MELEE: Cuber Power - 25% reduction Runic Sentinel - 10% reduction; 10% reflection ODM Gear - 0% reduction Still working Windmill - 5% reflection Jet Spear - 7% reduction Bone'o'Saur Sword - 3% reflection SPECIAL: Barrier rifle - 15% reduction Harmonic Synthesizer - 25% reduction Rock Smelter - 3% reduction Wealth Distributor - about 20ish% reduction Super-Mega-Expedition-Tool - 5% reduction Gorgon Head - 5% reflection SNIPER: Space Parasite Dreadnought - 10% reduction Dreams Warden - 30% reduction Eco Rifle - 10% reduction Experimental Rifle - 10% reduction HEAVY: Ships Drowner - 30% reduction Harsh Dragon - 20% reflection X-mas Spirits Defender - 20% reduction Controlled Drone System - 50% reduction Spiky Limbs - 10% reflection Project "Red Button" - 10% reduction Stained Glass Protector - 25% reflection GADGETS Barrier - 50% reduction Royal Guardian - 50% reduction Turtle Shell - 60% reduction

[@notdengrus]

My suggestion for the Barrier attribute is as goes: reduce a large amount of damage at once, ignore small amounts of damage. What this means is the barrier attribute will be able to reduce huge incoming damage from something like a sniper, for example Anti Champion Rifle, and the barrier won't reduce small amounts of damage from something like automatics like Golden Friend, or Stream Beam weapons like Ronin. Anti Champion Rifle (snipers) deals a lot of damage in one shot, and Golden Friend (automatics) and Ronin (stream beam) deal a lot of damage over a period of time.

[@59master60]

Kind of like that energy melee module and magic heavy module effect

[@z1na401]

thats actually rlly good. Like the barrier reduces the damage from ONE shot no matter the damage

[@notdengrus]

@@59master60 yep

[@notdengrus]

@@z1na401 ya kinda, it would be promoting more automatic usage since they would be a direct counter to that kind of barrier, instead of using one shot weapons like ultimatum and snipers

[@gameshoww2606]

Sounds like a wonderful idea, this needs to be in the game

[@botyeeter97]

Everything that's wrong with pixel gun 3D in my opinion (oh boy): *Balancing*: Here there is a lot to discuss but the main issues are: 1) every time they nerf or buff something, the buffs never are right somehow they are always on the extremes. Take the wave pulser for example, it was ok until they added wall break and extra damage to it(over the already extra damage), the same can be said for nerfs,when until recently they nerfed weapons to the ground after their season was over (eg: soul cards, fatal melter, transform rifle, etc.). 2) category wide nerfs: This, it just infuriates me, because of 1-2 weapons that were broken or because of a certain play style (which again relies on a small amount of weapons) a whole dam category gets the same treatment.( Like why?) This has it obvious issues that it may not fix the problem at hand and that it may kill otherwise balanced guns or make them unreliable (eg heavy category). Lets say that would be fine and that somehow they made such a "balanced" change that makes everything better. But then they add something to that same category of weapons that even more broken then the ones before the nerf. Now that shifts the meta to en extreme degree making only the new gun being used and the og ones being forgotten, because they cant compete with the new ones.(another great example is when they nerfed the snipers only to later add noble porcelain and harsh punisher) 3)weapon mechanics: Some of the mechanics (eg: barrier, pulling towards target, weakness, gravity force, consecutive explosions) are simply broken, they make no sense, physics wise, and they are annoying because they cannot be combatted. When something can't be combatted you really have two options: You quit the game. You join them. That ll just shrink the meta even more, which makes the game feel repetitive. A solution to this problem would NOT be to nerf the mechanic, but ho over each weapon that has it and teak it, so that people who don't use them can compete against them. For example some pulling towards targets could have a smaller momentum, other with weakness have a smaller weakness value (one preferably that doesn't make ur guns useless) and so on. The idea is to combine these with the damage and fire rate of the gun to create something unique which can still be combatted. Most of the issues i saw i had when battling things like rusted revolver and deadly icicle were that i couldn't do anything about it, my weapons were simply not doing anything against them. The same can't be said about the gift stealer thought, but in conjunction with other 1 shot weapons it basically produces the same result. So again we shrink the meta even more which again makes this more repetitive. *Quality of life*: Oho i think this is the most neglected one, because it doesn't bring imediat profit. There are a lot of issues here as well but i will only enumerate the ones that drive me insane: 1)The lag, ohh god the lag on mobile is terrible, even though some have top tier phones, (some of which were even presented on this channel) this game, but only this game, has frame drops, especially at switching categories (i noticed this is because of a lot of useless things getting updated with each switch behind the scenes) and when trying to swipe on the screen (if you are lucky enough for the controls to not freeze in place). All of these issues were not there in the earlier versions of the game, the games control on mobile became more and more unstable as updates came to be, which should not happen since they ve mostly added guns. Apart from the lag created by the controls and game input processing there is also lag, thou less, made by some guns (idk whats happening here) and the most annoying the lag from the server, which instead of giving the player a smooth movement of the enemy the enemy (which will most likely have McDonald's wifi) will appear to teleport like an enderman in the rain. 2) The bugs. Each time they update the game (even if its a simple update that only consists of a pass) it breaks in unimaginable ways, this is a clear sign of spaghetti 🍝 code where things aren't modular enough amd they are way to tight together leading to performance issues, security issues (in some cases) and ofc bugs. Rewriting the game will take time and good management, but the results will be worth for both the developers and the player base. 3) the invasive UIs and the lack of confirmation buttons. This not only makes navigating the game a test of patience but it also shows the predatory nature of the game. A while ago we asked for more tips on the guns, i remember, im pretty sure most of us didn't have in mind more one way to go buttons to upgrade things without confirmation, but rather tipes about guns and the current meta. This combined with the pop ups, which for some reason can't be disabled, makes the experience not clean and tiring. 3)Crossover. Im not sure why this wasn't here already, since its definitely possible on pc with the streamer mode, but not on mobile, why? It's absolutely needed because pc players have huge advantages in frame rates and mobility over mobile (I d personally like to not sweat on every lobby). Plus most hackers and aimbot Users (bots included here) are on pc. 4) The lack of multi touch on android. Again this presents and issue as it limits the movement of the player and therefore the strategy it can use, while other systems have this enabled through different ways (controller, 3d touch), it isolates a category of people for no reason. 5)The outdated setting ui. The settings haven't changed for a while and most of the problems regarding the pop ups could easily be fixed by adding a toggle here. Lower end devices could use some extra graphic settings to tune their performance in case its not optimal. *Gameplay*: I have two main problems here: 1) Bots, which make no sense for the game, their movements are very buggy and weird and they cannot be dodged consistently, plus shotgun ones have kill aura . To add on top of this they can make battles very unfair if the very good and performant match making puts you solely against 4 players. 2) Most of the mini games don't give keys which make them mostly unplayed, this is a huge missed opportunity as they can bring more players to the game.. 3) the brawl system is basically non existent, im not sure why they don't recycle the old but gold brawls (not the new versions of them), some of us really enjoyed them. 4) The pay to weeeeen skins are a problem in battle royale, which should be skill based only. Thats it, thats all i had on top of my head for now. Thank you Ecko for doing this series maybe they ll finally understand whats happening with their game. (Ps: sorry for my broken English im not a native)

[@matttz90]

this is a genius rework for barrier effect!! If the devs dont see this then the game is cooked...another effect that is currently broken and which maybe should get a rework/nerf is the charm/weakening effect. Its frustrating that these both are the same effect but with different names, meaning you can STACK these effects, leaving your opponents deal almost no damage. What we need is maybe just put both weaking and charm into one effect or make them not stack at all.

[@Maybe_a_furry]

I would remove charm. No one like it. But yes, good point.

[@hootowl9006]

I Agree changing the weapons don’t do anything to help the game when they have an unbreakable barrier protecting players that are were lucky enough to get items with the barrier effect especially when they can stack the effect. Also not fair newer players aren’t able to get sone of the items with the effect. The developers definitely need to add a way to weaken or destroy the barrier effects over time so so players aren’t invincible. Looking forward to seeing more of your suggestions to save the game! Really hope the developers listen to your suggestions and get the game back to a place where people want to play it again! Keep up the amazing content! Hope you are having a fantastic day! Take care.

[@endy_endious5178]

Not really a problem but rework or scopes work, now this might be a waste of a change but make ot that there is a new tab called "optics" or "scopes" which is where you can equip different scopes like 2x, 4x, 8x, 10x, 12x, thermal, and energy. And an additional change is with the weapons either get rid of their scopes and give them points of attatch ment or keep them and just have it change based which one is selected. As well as having each one have different scope-in time, scope-out time, accuracy. Also a maybe fun? change is to the "energy barrier" gadget (the one you place down and an energy wall comes up/appears), make it stronger, act like an obstacle (like it acts like well...a wall. But a wall where if you come into contact it damages you and give the electro shock status effect), applifies damage (if an ally shoots through it), obstructs vision (as in that it copies the texture of it's surroundings thus making the enemy not able to see through but you and your allies can see through(like one-way glass), and if near a door way or entrance then it will snap into place where it's in-line with it and will block it off.

[@spopi7621]

Make it so passive barrier is only like 15% to prevent one shots, but still not being invincible. Second, make all the weapons with wall break or piercing go through them, they will still be viable, but not broken. Also, maybe for the gadget barrier being slowly damaged, make it be kind of like the mech where it has a set amount of hp that it shows you

[@Danorpx]

I think the barrier should also be vulnerable to shield piercing attributes, as well as piercing shells. Automatic primaries could use the boost. Weakening and Charm have to just straight up need to go as attributes for weapons. They completely break the balance of weapons. They may work on gadgets or something, but I honestly think we'd be better off if it just wasn't in the game altogether.

[@aceyyyyyy]

the minigun “excalibur” has had a barrier for years w no issue. The solution is to just make the barrier 5/10% dmg absorption not 50%

[@КириллЖданов-я5э]

It is not so difficult to kill players with revolvers: we use a pistol: a hypnohunter or a killing mechanism. we apply the curse effect with the first shot and finish it off with a sniper shot

[@westoonc]

Yes I use it and it’s actually still good at level 65 but I wouldn’t mind that buff

[@classichere7749]

No

[@Danorpx]

They should reverse the Piercing Shells nerf they did some time ago.

[@Speedclipz01]

Instead of the barrier effect negating all damage till its broken, its better to keep the original barrier effect (where the shield reduces damage) and then add your idea; the barrier breaks. Instead of the barrier have 4 hit negations, i think it should only be one. Almost everyone uses weapons that one shot, the barrier protecting you from this is very advantageous in itself. At most it should be 3 hits using any weapon with any amount of damage.

[@classichere7749]

They need add an effect where these barriers can be broken and it takes time to build it up. However, the gadget such as royal guardian and barrier should NEVER STACK. This is how i can fix it: Barriers can be reworked to only absorb only 20% incoming dmg. Barrier stacking is no more Creating a shield while reloading will absorb 50% dmg since the effect is only a brief effect. Barriers take around 20 seconds to buildup again and can only be used 3 times a match. If this still makes barriers broken, Make the shields penetration attribute also pierce through barriers aswell. This is all i can give about the Barrier attribute.

[@Stallia556]

The barrier effect should go both ways. Just as enemy damage toward you is minimized should your damage output be reduced at a similar or same rate. Barrier stack all you want, but you won’t get any kills.

[@sq103a]

I think they should introduce more weapons with "shield penetration" attribute to counter weapon with shield and barrier effect. The only weapon that I know that have this attribute is Piercer.

[@ChiyoBebe.]

The barrier effect can’t be penetrated with piercer

[@citronrose1506]

I feel like if they included the possibility of matchmaking against only bots and make those get normal rewards (or half rewards to balance it out) would go a long way and it would bring back the ability to farm without getting blasted by P2W, Cheaters or higher level players

[@NotDM]

The fact that most barriers are like 5-20% is not as bad, but rr with a 50% barrier stacked with royal guardian giving yourself 75% barrier is insane, thankfully with noble’s healing nerf you arent immortal but you’ll still be incredibly tanky

[@yuki880]

shield penetration actually can ignore barrier, but only Colckwork guardian and neon tommy gun can do, armor piercing sniper and piercer cant The another problem is that Developer made Wave Pulser has Wall break that can kill every one, it should be only piercing shot attribute.

[@Maybe_a_furry]

I think the problem of wave pulser is not the fact that it gies through walls. Its everything else. nerv the damage, LET ME JUMP, i think it even slows down. Just make it less dangerous. It even can keep the ability to make the same damage through walls than without. But all the other abilitys AND the high damage make it a nightmare..

[@StrawberryShartCak3]

​@@Maybe_a_furryNo, no it totally is the fact it can go through walls. With the huge hitbox and projectile, if it didn't have that, it would be easy for it to stop by touching a wall or object with how big it is.

[@WilliamPG3D-ny3nh]

I think that the developers should make it where if you ewo/kill yourself (in-game), you lose a kill for your team. Another, I think they should nerf/work on the gadgets. Like the "Denied!" they should make the cooldown 60 seconds; but I think it might be 60 already, might be 45, I don't know. The "Cyber Bees Swarm" they should nerf the damage so it doesn't one shot with all 3; or nerf the points you get for get a kill, like 50 --> 25. The "Royal Guardian"; they should nerf the barrier by 50%; like they did to the Armored Cyber Power. " Turtle Shell"; Nerf the barrier by 50% also, and the damage boost by 75%. "Pandora's Box" Buff the damage to enemies by 32%; and nerf the damage done to yourself, by 50%; 98 --> 49. "Teleport Grenade"; Buff the cooldown. The Mechs; buff them all by 26%. Except for the clan one. Nerf it by 16%. "Wave Pulser" Nerf the damage by 21%; Bullet Speed; nerf by 18%. "Acid Shotgun" Buff by 42%. "Leaders Best Friend"; Remove weakening; and nerf the weapon by 28%. "Ultimatum" ;NERF IT BY 53%. "Rusted Revolver"; Barrier nerf by 50%. " Sparkling Horn"; nerf by 6%. "Anniversary Alien Blaster"; buff by 13%. " Alien Blaster"; Buff by 18%. "Heroic Epee" nerf by 14%; and Super punch, 1 shot after normal hit --> 2. "Hypno-Shackles"nerf by 14%. "Additional Biting Limb" buff by 17%. "Ronin" nerf by 19%. "Underwater Whip" AoE nerf by 25%; nerf by 9%."Harsh Punisher" Nerf by 17% "One Shot" Buff by 63%. "Laser Bow" buff by 13%. "Stained Glass Protector" nerf by 13%. "Destruction System"; Self damage nerf by 21%; nerf by 13% "Pixel Cola Refresher" nerf by 12%. There are my things that need to be nerfed/buffed.

[@ericdow]

The real issue with barrier. Is that either reflects damage, or you become a God pretty much. Then wave pulser is another issue as well. Just x-ray and just shot through walls. Maybe x ray goggles should get a nerf. They should last was less, and for wave pulser. Either damage is reduced by 50% or completely remove the wall break of the weapon. It's so ridiculous being shot through walls either being one shotted, or not being able to jump, then they kill you anyways, or if they have the skin, they shoot you once, and the poison finishes you once. I really think the big weapon problems are cash gun, intergalactic treasurer, and wave pulser, but ofc guns/gadgets that have any barrier that make you a God to anything. Something I would say is ctf is ruined by dashing weapons and the time machine gadget. They should be banned from ctf honestly

[@ericdow]

@sanguine.722 capture the flag 💀💀💀💀

[@Smileman1122]

I think weapons should only have 1 defensive attribute like no barrier and weakening on lbf. I also think the barriers should not stack but only make the better barrier work. Example: rusted revolver and turtle shell/royal guardian. Since the royal guardian has better stats and removes negative effects or turtle shell has higher barrier, it should take priority and override rusted revolvers barrier so you cant stack them.

[@aidanblake3269]

It’s basically the rage attribute but the opposite if people are confused and rages like say if you were in a fight and they hurt you more you hurt them. That’s what it’s like. and if they add this ability of the barrier breaking instead of just making a sound they could put a huge word on the screen saying you lost your barrier and then you know instead of just hearing a random sound. Can you read my other comments too, please? And read this one, please too because it might be a good idea just saying your next video if you see this comment if you like it or not

[@PIXELECKO]

Yeah pretty much the opposite of rage in a way

[@AziizR]

I think they need to rework the ptt (pulling towards target) weapons Like the whole effect needs to be reworked, like imagine joining a game then seeing almost everyone swinging around like crazy. It's so annoying, this attribute needs to be reworked.

[@AziizR]

And i think it'll be good if they added counter attacks for melee and cooldown animations

[@neverglitch4485]

Ptt isn't a problem. I had been playing for a year and it never was exept flag capture even tho that gamemode is the worst so it doesn't matter. If you struggle against people using ptt it's just skill issue as they eventually hit the floor.

[@blizidettryuo]

I'd like to bring up something : matchmaking. I don't blame P2W players, I myself spent 5€ in it, but it's so annoying to end up with max levels who have a full set of OP weapons when you're lvl 20 struggling with Anti-Hero and Exterminator trying your first cat spam, and to get one shot by Harsh Punisher, Spikey Mortar and Second Life Vacuum

[@Dinosaurman-kb5qp]

Heres my take on attributes:- Weakening: I think the attribute should decrease damage by 25% but hitting an enemy twice with a Weakening weapon makes the damage decrease rise from 25 to 50% . Sheild: shooting a charged sheild for example sly wolf, decreases by how much the weapon is charged. So if sly wolf is fully charged, hitting it with something like the one shot decrease the charge by 50%. The sheild can charge continuously but hitting it with enough damage to make the total charge drop to 0 can disable it for 3 seconds Barrier: With a barrier weapon you start at 0% but it increases per kill you get with the barrier weapon. With, suppose the rusted revolver you get one kil the barrier rises to 15%, with a second kill it rises to 30% and with 3 kills it maxes out at 50% barrier. (Like the rage attribute). Gravitational pull: for weapons that have this attribute that do not need to be charged (arctic soul devourer, supernova generator) the Gravitational pull only activates with a direct hit on an enemy.

[@potato3457]

Shield and grav are overkills. Especially grav since nova has bloom

[@Dinosaurman-kb5qp]

For sheild, then it should be that the sheild only activates after the weapon is fully charged.

[@Dinosaurman-kb5qp]

And for gravitational pull, only one projectile can have that effect at a time. So the first shot has the pull, but any other one shot during the duration of the first shot doesn't have the pull.

Like the second I respawn in classic pool for example, (team fight) I die instantly due to op weapons! I wish this game was like 2017. Why are all weapons one shot now? Why are modules a thing? just keep the game simple and easy going!

[@potato3457]

Don't play pool it's whole gimmick is you live for max 10s even if you are quite good

[@pylotheric9777]

too fast paced is on point, that's why being lower level is (sometimes) better than being higher level. i say sometimes because 1.) you aren't being one shot by overpowered weapons (yet) and weapons in lower levels in general are just less cancer, But 2.) you are on the lower spectrum, everyone a few levels above you will easily be a huge problem. It's basically like water and how being submerged lower means more water is on top of you, increasing the pressure. Same thing. ^^^ This wouldn't be a problem if matchmaking was actually good, and didn't put you with level 65 players as a level 50 or something ☠️

[@Obesebirdd]

The biggest problem imo is all the mythical weapons. Its gotten to a point where theyre more common than a rare/epic weapon. Either stop releasing so many guns just to make ur game FOMO or add some in the armory f2p players can grab by playing the game

[@user-frindly-phanto]

I think barrier should be able to recharge over time. Like, 10% every 10 seconds or something. It would also be cool if it would regain like 20-25% if you pick up an ammo pack. The ring barrier is too strong because it has no disadvantages. It lasts too long and the cool down is too short

[@chat4783]

In War thunder, they do battle ranking, where the higher the Ranking the game will put you in a game with the same ranking. So Pixle Gun should do a BR where ever weapons like the Ultimatum should have a BR of 10, while the Simple Machine Gun is BR 1.

[@muhammadgulzar2834]

as a true og on your channel and a regular view i agree 100% with what's going on in pixel gun 3d its unfair broken and the game is going down and i actually enjoy playing the game but if it's gonna be like this it just doesn't make the game fun anymore

[@westoonc]

This may be a hot take but I think the devs need to stop adding so many shotguns to the game or better yet just revert them to the way they used to be like they promised

[@PIXELECKO]

They do it because they think it’s what players want 😅

[@StrawberryShartCak3]

Shotguns were just fine before, high damage dealing in close ranges but you needed to actually hit most of your shots instead of just hitting one or a few shots decently close and getting mad easy kills. Never understood why they changed them.

[@jaxsonpetrich1110]

Hey Ecko, you should try out the intergalactic treasurer with the turtle shell. Its power is completely broken and allows you to have a lot of durability and ricochet!

[@Cob_Webster]

The thing is they would much rather just reduce the barriers’ defense from 50% to 25% like they did with armored Cuber power lol

[@ClutcherPG3D]

Another thing is how a barrier weapon and barrier gadgets stack, it needs to be one or the other

[@ggez_ipadontop378]

effect for the next video: healing while reloading. I think i dont have to explain. I really like this series allready. I cant wait for the next parts. And please talk about the "balancing problem". Every weapon comes new on the game, is op as hell and then next season it will be nerfed to the ground. Like dreams warden. I love this design but i cant use it anymore its gotten way to weak compared to the meta right now. I think u know what i mean. Please make a video about these 2 thinks. Thanks ecko (*∩ω∩)

[@Berserkerpg3d]

They need to remove barrier altogether. The strongest gadget or gimmic if you want to call it, was the reflector gadget which got nerfed to oblivion. Now you have ridiculous gimmics that make players quit the game

[@LazyChicken406]

Honestly, there are some things in this game that should just be deleted like barrier and pulling towards target because they are just ruining the game and no matter how you nerf them, somebody is gonna figure out a way how to make it OP again.

[@BenderO-or6ic]

And a cross play enable and disable buttons for both platforms and I think they should bite the bullet delay on season to add a anti cheat

Yes

[@saddemon3913]

Yyyeeeaahh... Its really terrible... They have seen how much people joined the game to try out, and after some time they still couldn't fix situation with cheats and damn balance! They keep losing players its so ridiculous! They did got hype what they needed and still not handle it

[@YesName_1]

The barrier effect should be based on rarity Mythical barrier offers less protection than a rare one would

[@암]

Just nerf All barrier weapons barriers to 25% and Make them Never stack against other barrier such as royal guardian or turtle shell. Moreover, they should stop making exclusive weapons over and over it is impossible new players jump in this game + need to nerf all op weapons too ex. Artic soul and more.

[@Zenpg3d]

I love how pixel litterly added rusty revolver which is impossible to counter like these players are unkillable first they have that barrier and on that this players are using more barrier gadgets along with self healing snipers and the fire rate and dmg of this stupid weapons itself enough to take down whole lobby in a single go bruh they should nerf it properly and not by just dmg bruh

[@manishshrestha4182]

Need to honour the promise to op weapons in trader van

[@theemeraldninja5038]

This issue isn't as pressing as others, but I think we need to talk about the problem with shields in this game, such as the Sly Wolf. I think the biggest problems with shields are the size of the hitbox, the fact that the shields require niche methods to be penetrated, and the fact that shields cannot be broken.

[@daybroken2281]

They can actually be broken. If you shoot it enough, the shield will run out of ammo, thus rendering it useless till ammo is picked up.

[@theemeraldninja5038]

@daybroken2281 that's another issue. The only way to break shields is to make them run out of ammo, which takes tediously long to do because the devs keep buffing the ammo cap

[@PIXELECKO]

Yeah fast TTK you’re right, trying to lil people with barrier prevents that.

[@InfinityRektic]

@@PIXELECKO I know, my main point is having your barrier break down progession is useless imo for the fact one and 2 shot weapons are very common. Or maybe i interpreted it wrong

[@dr.4474]

I think the barrier effect is bad, but it’s also a good thing, like I’m sure everyone would agree having to die like every 5-10 seconds is annoying and is what makes pulling weapons and dash weapons so meta to quickly respawn and get back into battle, and the devs made it so barrier is an alternative (or maybe they didn’t see that ppl would stack them to make them super tanky) but I think they should definitely tone down both dash,pulling and barrier. for me a passive barrier should be at maximum 25% defense, and a reload barrier can be 50% since it’s only temporary. for pulling weapons I think the projectile lands and instead of being instant, it kinda gravity pulls you towards where it lands, then it gives a small thrust when you reach the projectile. for dash weapons I think they should be kinda like the vacuum but the vacuum has to be reworked in this way: you swing a regular hit(this is usually a non-max charge) and then every 3-5 seconds it recharges and then allows you to dash and then has to recharge again, basically kinda like vacuum but instead of it being a super-punch where you have to charge it up, the dash just charges passively every 3-5seconds, and then they just have to animate regular hits for the dash weapons

Just these attributes alone are dominating the game: Weakening(Arctic Soul, Deadly Icicle, Leader's Best Friend) Pulling Towards Target(VGD, Gift Stealer, PSG) Barrier(Rusted Revolver, Armored Cuber before nerf, Leader's Best Friend) Bonus Points(Mafia Set, Cash Gun, Intergalactic Treasurer) Shotgun(Ultimatum, Deadly Icicle, Boars Roar) Dash, debatable(Thermal Scythe, Vacuum, Temple Claws) Consecutive Explosions(Soap Hammer, Underwater Whip, and maybe Battle Falcon) Gravitational Force, the black hole effect(Arctic Soul, Supernova Generator) And for a short time, Damage During Reloading was dominating the game with the introduction of Intelligent Cyber Bow and Total Dominator 2. But after ICB got nerfed and TD2 basically left in the dust, only TD2 and Ice Ball Generator remain to have spammable DDR. And for a time that lasted for a couple of months, full heal and armor while reloading dominated everything with Pasta Sniper and Noble being the most notable ones. Heavy Cone was also one of them but it's the one that got hit the hardest due to it being a minigun in the heavy section. And attributes that's not even getting a lot of love because it gets outshined or that it just sucks: Miniguns(Plasmatic Digger, Peacemaker) Semi-auto(Semi Auto Sniper Rifle, Lancelot, Space Parasite Dreadnought) Automatic(Yes, a lot of autos have high DPS, but the recent autos they have released have poor DPS like Cosmic Geode) Teammate Healing(Luxury Beats, Holy Shotgun) Flamethrower, Electro-thrower, Water Cannon(Reckoning Day Flamethrower, Pizza Heater, Shower Sprinkler) Charge Shot(Dragon Bite, Big Fatality Gun, Maximum Cruelty) Manual Guidance(Drone Combat Station, Stinger 3000, Controlled Drone System)

I think dash weapons are fine. Besids this stupid vakuum cleaner. They can stay like they are. Gravitational force is an Actual nightmare. Who desided to make a weapons that stops u completly from moving and is unavoidable and spammable. Damage during reloading is fine nowadays. There are meeles who outclass it. Healing while reloading is still a problem with that instand noodles sniper. They should change that. Its spammable by reloading a bunch of times. It should only work once but heal full. Then it will only work again if u die. Teammate heals should be made better. Ur right Manual guidance is actually decent. It can stay like it is
