I started getting destroyed by striker shotgun builds and realized it’s kinda OP (so I built my own). After months of playing and refining my striker shotgun build/popshotting, I started to notice that many of the users being accused of cronus aren’t using cronus. The guys that bodied me all the sudden were losing to me. People in my groups would accuse people of cronus and i’d have no trouble killing them. I’d walk into a 1vs1 circle and fight the guy supposably using cronus and id win. It’s funny when the people accusing the person of cronus are using predator or nomad, not even striker shotgun. I found that not many people understand how strong striker is when you have 100 stacks and can popshot half decent because they never even tried it(or were awful at it). I have lost to great players that use striker shotgun and i don’t complain of cronus. Maybe they had more stacks? maybe they hit headshots? maybe they popshotted better than me? People walk out checkpoints when i have 100 stacks and then they instantly think i have a cronus because i 3 shot them with my sasg. I notice a lot of lag in servers nowadays that has players running in place on my screen, when i shoot them in place they eventually glitch forward to wherever they were running on their screen and all my damage hits at once. People think that is cronus but really i just had you not moving on my screen which is server lag. I’ve been shot literally through walls and trucks too but i think it’s because on their screen i was running in place and then bang all the damage hits me at once. Another thing i find funny is when somebody is jumping around dodging all my shots accusing me of cronus when they don’t realize i wouldn’t miss at all if i had a cronus? I know striker shotgun is strong but it isn’t as easy to use as everyone claims, why don’t you try it before crying about it? Only thing to kill me in the DZ is another good striker or constant pred bleed(which requires landing 10 bullets and a house holds 66). Nomad is no match for a striker with stacks most of the time. Also, If players are smart they will keep an NPC around to maintain the stacks, so once a player comes i’m already at 80 stacks and you are at 0...people will think “how did that guy hit me so hard i just came around the corner” Well buddy i had an 80 stack advantage running 9K striker, not a cronus. Because of stacks striker is the best build in game hands down if you land shots, All experienced players recognize this and since shotguns stack the quickest, the best players in game are going to be drawn to the striker shotgun build, and they know how to play. Cronus is a huge problem and i hope it gets fixed but way too many quality players are being accused. My PSN is The_savage08831 and I posted a striker shotgun video in a thread a few minutes ago. Hopefully some of you agree.
Yet I have been in the DZ and seen players fire shotguns, sasg, and showstoppers far faster and more consistently then any human can and maintain. Coronis players generally standout cause the rate of fire makes a weird sound as it fires. I would be more likely to believe a player cheats then that they learned how to mimic a cheat device like you claim to have.
