    I don't think I've ever played a few rounds of TTT without hearing someone(myself not included) complain about this gun. It's extremely annoying to be killed by, T or inno alike. A gun that can one-shot from a pretty decent range without having to aim anywhere near the head is a bit absurd and creates a frustrating experience. The cons of being a one-trick pony due to the long reload time and uselessness against a crowd of people don't outweigh the ability to die without reaction with ease. I. e. the DB is bad design and shouldn't be in TTT.

    Congratulations you have won the prize of being the 100th person to post remove the DB.

    FYI - It isn't getting removed ever so like just don't stand next to people with DB's genius.

    Knife: 2 hit kill, you have to be next to the person (up to 5m if you're good at projectile weapons), T only weapon, one time use

    DB: 1 hit kill, up to 5+ meters away (10+ if you know how to aim), available to everyone, up to 3 spawn per map, you need 2 secs to use it again, up to 12 uses per full ammo, unlimited uses as long as there's ammo.

    An original suggestion idea!

    On a serious note, it's "slowly" being phased out. Give it time.

    Another solution would be to increase the spread of the pellets and decrease its one-shot range.

    Regardless of the originality of the post, doesn't make sense to me why it's still in when I see so much hate for it from everyone, mods and random players alike. I guess as long as it's being phased out I'm happy.

    It isn't being phased out, this is a quote from an ex lead admin.

    It's not going anywhere, but soon, it will be a part of something bigger.

    What ? we dont know. When? we dont know.

    You're goddamn right.

    Whenever Highwon finds time, the double-barrel will be a part of something unprecedented on our servers.

    Did anyone even read this :/ I mean it just shows how op the db is. Even if you upgrade the knife it's still more op. I mean if you're alone with someone it doesn't matter if its silent or roaring loud, and when you're in a crowd you either get spotted (knife) or get heard (scrubble barrel). It's reausable as fuck and practically has infinite uses as long as you have ammo.
     
  20. Carned does have a point. We were promised that the DB will be removed, but now we will have it forever. DB requires no skill. 1 shot is a kill, like Carned said there is no real reason for it to be in game still. This "bigger" thing, I will believe it when I see it. It boggles the mind how we worry about balancing new weapons, but an unbalanced weapon that was PROMISED and overall VOTED OUT by the community, is still here. Seriously, if you have a legitimate explaination why you won't remove it, tell us @Highwon
