Sledgehammer and Goo Gun left unfixed for THREE SEASONS.

[Mineatom]

Several bug reports about these weapons have been made in the Discord server, Community Managers have said they've forwarded these reports, but they never get fixed, it's been two seasons since they've been "forwarded" but they're still broken.

These issues include:

Sledgehammer
- Input delay on attacks
- Wrong attack animation playing for the attack type
- Attack animation is desynced from the actual hitbox of the weapon
- The range of the primary attack is HALF of what it's supposed to be due to the "temporary" server desync mitigations back in S4, however they forgot to change the attack range back to normal after server issues have been fixed

Goo Gun
- Goo shots have inaccuracy, this wasn't always the case, and there is no patch notes pertaining any information about it
- Goo sometimes bounces off of players instead of sticking
- Goo shots detonate but not stick to players when they're shot while vaulting and jumping, leaving the goo mid air, this is likely due to a change made while ago which made goo not reset player velocity when its stuck on them
- Light players can evasive dash through stuck goo, this was not always the case and is not mentioned in patch notes

TL;DR - Embark is deliberately ignoring issues with less popular weapons and gadgets

[Pootispencerhere NOW!]

Embark is just farming their "c*msumers".

youre telling me the sledgehammer is supposed to have twice as much range? ♥♥♥♥ that it could hit me from another area code at that point

imho i rock sledgehammer and goo gun and i find that yes sometimes hits dont connect but honestly the rage isnt terrible and goo gun is definitely a little buggy sometimes but they definitely should fix the inconsistencies in the sledgehammer hits

I'm shocked Sledge has bugs that the devs either don't know about or don't care to fix. It's not like it's an uncommon pick like goo gun is

Question---Does it make the game worse for lights?
Answer---No.
Solution---Nothing unless it affects lights.

If CMs didn't lie the devs do in fact know about it for nearly two seasons now, they just don't care to fix it - except for that one bug that let you hold right click to rapidly overhead slam with sledge which was the least disruptive bug of all, everything else though is the same ☠️

im not saying goo is unusable as I know there are many high rank players who use it every match.... but I think the viability for a solo queue person using goo gun went out the window when they introduced demat and then the demat buff. goo gun used to be way stronger you could live forever using it

You'd be surprised to the amount of lost tournaments due to goo gun bugs I had

Still not fixed after recent update

[Mineatom]

They have STILL not done anything to fix it in the mid season update
