    I think that Ray/Demolisher NEEDS a nerf. Ray will destroy any zombie as far as the eye can see. I think that it should still be a one shot gun. But it should shoot slightly slower or have less ammo per clip. Any thoughts?

    Provide more info and/or screenshots. I agree with this one though :>

    You think having 8 shots + another 8 is too much ammunition? The first Ray gun sucked. It had twice as less ammunition to begin with.

    The problem with nerfing Ray though is that if this was implemented, people would just use mini instead.

    Also, infect now is somewhat balanced out because zombies get the use of grenades and c4s. Zombies now only need to get five kills for an emp.

    He meant less ammo per CLIP. Read thoroughly - Maybe each CLIP would be reduced to 6 or 5 bullets so more reloading is required - the same amount of ammo would still be provided.

    It would make it almost worthless to buy. Donator weapons are meant to be powerful - or otherwise there won't be any income from them.

    Promoting P2W isn't great either... Think of maps like highrise: far too unfair

    But if server does not make money, then is it going to matter whether or not it is p2w if the server is offline?

    The Ray gun makes up little percent of the servers income

    God. People the ray isn't incredible, it's over-rated and too many complain about it. Like it's a DONATOR weapon, it's supposed to be good!

    Brawl economics aside, the truth is, Ray is absolute ****e in any other gamemode other than infect. Infect--a gamemode where zombies get more experience, as well as 3x money and xp from a regular kill, and where it's a lot easier to EMP. Oh, and let's not forget how zombies have increased speed and reach (and possibly c4's). Allow the survivors some advantages besides camping, right? Anyway, if I'm correct, the Ray recieved a bit of an AoE nerf a little while back anyway, so it's substantially less underpowered than a lot of people make it to be. At this point, how is getting blasted with a raygun all that different from getting sniped by an ISO or shot with a skullcrusher?
    Infect's (arguably?) rather well balanced at this point in time, and nerfing the ray to the point of where it's worse than the LAW won't exactly help anything.

    Actually according to a mod I was teamspeaking with awhile ago they said "Donor guns aren't meant to always be OP just different from the none donor guns".
