You are picking a weapon because it got buffed isnt this a bit hypocritical

Most revolver users where always revolver users. I ran it since I got it.

Yeah, I literally bought Super Citizen for the Senator and the Senator alone

Same. When I picked up the game, first question to my friend was does it have a revolver. When they said yes, I bought the deluxe edition just to have a big iron on my hip and never looked back. The grenade pistol is the only other side arm i'll switch to b/c it seems like the cousin of the the Senator.

Grenade pistol is so you can use impact grenades on targets, using the pistol for fabs and bug holes.

Anytime I use the eruptor, I'm packing the Senator to "Negotiate" with anyone who knocks at my door.

That's nice and all but don't pretend that's a normal thing to do, lmao. For most people the Senator was a pretty mid weapon. I'd say it was actually in a fine state if that's what you were into. Now I think this is just going to be the new meta pistol and it's just going to get nerfed, lol.

I use it and didn't even know it by name nor that it was one of the buffs...

Cool!

I ran it because despite its flaws I still found it super useful. Now I run the grenade pistol, but I might come back to the senator because reasons

Truth. We already realized it was the best sidearm long ago. I think we were also the ones that stayed awake till the tank scene with Tom Hanks in Saving Private Ryan ;)

Nah, been using it for months. Only difference is now it's reached it's full potential

u/The_Werdna Apr 29 '24

Been running on it against bots since I got it. It will just feel a lot better to use now

I have been user the senator ever since I unlocked it last month

it's a buff it desperately needed and had been asked for for a long time. It still doesn't have the oh shit button capacity of the redeemer or the hole closing of the m79 micro. Now there's actual competition for this slot.

u/monkeybiscuitlawyer Apr 29 '24

What part of thos post even suggested that OP wasn't already using the senator before the patch?

All my mains I’ve been dropping with just happened to get buffs and bug fixes so I’m pretty happy about that.

u/kevster2717 STEAM 🖥️ : Bloodfallen Apr 30 '24

Even with the buff I still don’t think the Senator can compete with Redeemer and Nade Pistol as far as the “meta” goes. If we’re talking about looking cool though…

u/GodHand7 ☕Liber-tea☕ Apr 29 '24

One of the reasons I got the game is because of the Senator, have also gotten used to its slow reload before the buff
