It's not "too strong", simply "strong". How is it unbalanced?

It has power, speed, range, and mobility. That's too strong.

Actually, the weapon doesn't matter (im not taling like 1 hit you die and **** like that) if Anuber can flaw a photon with a BR then it depends on WHO uses it. Now if Typhoon was using Photon im sure he can gain atleast 20 kills and 1death.

It lacks spread, it's range isn't all that godlike, it has a very high price tag relative to other buyable stuff.

The price doesn't matter, there's very little to spend your money on. The range is more than BR, and back-strafing further increases the difference in range.

Uh yeah, it does.

Irrelevant.

How far is BR in terms of guns in general? Doesn't back-strafing further increase any difference in range?

When you have so little to spend your money on you're going to end up getting enough money to buy it whether you save up for it or not.

No. If I'm chasing let's say Jo's laming ass with a photon, and he has a RR and he starts backstrafing that decreases the difference in weapon range.

That's a different problem though.

No. If I'm chasing let's say Az's laming ass with a photon, and he has a RR and he starts backstrafing that decreases the difference in weapon range.

Yeah, I'm asking if this difference in range applies to any gun. If so whats the point of bringing it up here?

Not in the slightest. If there is not much to spend your money on in the first place then it is just emphasizing the fact that the amount of money to purchase a photon cannon is quite easy and can be done within a couple of days or less.

It's still high relative to the other items. I've never had higher than 25k...you gotta think in the everyday player's perspective, not your own. Maybe for elites such as yourself it's easy money to get but not for me.
