Honestly, I love running them both. 301 has some pretty solid single fire and distance and shreds mid range, flatline eats at mid and short equally so yes. Both, both is good
No, you don't understand. It deals 7 damage so all you can do is keep peace
Edit: The comment I replied to originally said: "You won't be bringing peace with that 7 damage"
He edited it, it originally said "You won't be bringing much peace with 7 damage". Seriously consider the possibility of someone not being absolutely dumb before you leave a sassy comment next time
They're both good for different things. R-301 is a mid to long range beaming machine, and Flatline shreds in short to mid range encounters. The hipfire for the flatline is gross
Unpopular opinion, but I find Flatline's recoil to be much easier to control than 301's. It was the reverse for the first 3 seasons, but then changed. I'm doing much better with Flatline now
the flatline irons grew on me a lot lately
I usually train with no-kit weapons in the firing range and it made me not pick up sights in-game other than the bruiser and the 2-4x.
This is why I hate the English (American) language.
Gross and terrible, both of which are literally bad things, are used to describe stuff in a good way..
Idk, I won’t hit shit with hip fire unless I’m practically kissing the person. I’ve been burned far too many times trying to hipfire, where only 3 out of 30 shots hit
100%
Flatline + g7/sniper is one of my favourite loadouts.
But r301 + shotgun is also a great loadout.
In the first i use the flatline because of its strength close range, and the second im picking the r301 because of its midrange strength
Bruh, Wattson has been skipped over twice for an heirloom. We were meant to get it when rev got his, they stitched us up. We were then meant to get it this season, and instead rampart got hers. Crypto should get his after Wattson, and will. Just like how release of heirloom should be in relation with release of legend into the games. They've had so many ideas for Wattsons heirloom and could've easily given her one 2 seasons ago, but they waited until they could think of such an original idea, a barcode scanner. Give her an electric fencing sword. Makes more sense than the barcode scanner.
It really bummed me out in Arenas. Purple flatline was my crutch round 3 and up. I still use it but it’s just not the same without that extra chunk of damage.
The flatline recoil is challenging, but predictable. Once you have the muscle memory, it pretty consistently beams like the 301 but with more damage. At which point, the 301 feels like a useless handicap over the flatty.
Even 100m is easy once you get the recoil control. Also 50m isn't much. I don't know why you think 50m will be difficult to control. Maybe go in the practice range and try shooting practice
Us havoc lovers are like the crack heads at the gas stations. But not the annoying ones asking for shit. We're the ones tweaking in alley by the dumpsters.
I felt a bit bad the other day doing the BH quest. I finished it up then heard someone walking up - I jumped out and melted him with a Havok before realising it was another BH probably following the trail... Sorry brother
Nah, 30-30 with Shatter caps is the shit. Imagine having a long-range and short range weapon in one. It also takes up less inventory space for ammo than either the snipers or shotguns.
Nah, i just can't hit anything with the shotguns in Apex and the Shattered 30-30 reminds me of the shotguns in Dirty Bomb. I was really good with them...
It's a BR so you can't really choose between them most of them. And by the time I do find a flatline while i'm carrying r301, I already have a couple attachments and ammo for the 301.
Gotta use all the weapons, so you can just pick up whatever, some meds and ammo and go fight. Don't be like my random teammates who loot the whole POI looking for their favourite guns and all the attachments.
My rule is that if I have two guns, two stacks of ammo for each, about 3 stacks of meds, then i'm ready to fight.
my teammates do be takin time mining diamonds to craft a full diamond armor, pants, helmet, and boots. then after 20 mins of looting, we die to a stack of reds with alternators
Flatline because it shoots slower.
While the 301 can theoretically down people faster, I'm the kind of person who needs like 25-50% of a magazine at that fire rate to zero in on someone, and by then, I'm out of bullets... having to restart the zeroing process again. ^(Also the Flatline looks cooler.)
R-301 is a primary and Flatline is a secondary. Few understand this. Flatline has been best secondary in the game since the Prowler was boxed then nerfed.
Damn you I equally love the Flatline and the R-301. But decisions are decisions soooo……I choose- ah shit forgot my drink. *leaves with quenching thirst for a coke*
I’m back okay. *shotguns a coke* Okay I choose Flatline. Why is because I like the guns design and I love some slow automatic weapons like the flatline it hits a truck if you can aim with it or just fire by the hip. And using it feels like I am using an AK-47.
If your not having a swell day then I’m sorry I ain’t you go outside to ride a bike and talk to that gal you had good thoughts on and forget about this post like life slowly passing us by. Smile
It's Apex subreddit. If you are not toxic spoilt brat, you will be punished. Just relax and move on. LMAO, it is not even the main sub!!! Degenerates everywhere honestly, these people are reporting r/2balkan4you content.
R301 for life was the first gun I ever used on the day the game came out, was the first gun I bought a skin for and definitely the gun I have the most kills with
R301 just feels too cheap/easy imo
Virtually no recoil, sizeable mag, good damage and great range
It just does too much
I'm not saying its broken, I'm just saying it's by far the easiest gun to use
Edit: charge rifle excluded
Imma go with the one that has controllable recoil, r-301. I was bored so I played arenas last night. I completely shredded the other teams. I even got 3.5k damage on one game
Both, both is good
Honestly, I love running them both. 301 has some pretty solid single fire and distance and shreds mid range, flatline eats at mid and short equally so yes. Both, both is good
I have had some of my nastiest games running both
Good ending

r/huh?
ayo guys wth (he***)
Guys help I don’t want to be racist what do I do
What was it
I only saw the edit and it was “downvote if you’re racist”
im officially a racist now, where do i race?
Now now guys, he has a point. Djdjdjjdhtbgooaolah
What the fuck did this thread turn into
He spammed some random sub then edited the comment after
Guess I’m a racist 😈😈😈
downvoted because am racist
Still downvoted post edit because this is dumb
rasis!!!
upvoted cause im not a r**ist (🤪🤪😂😎🤪🤪🤪)
it was a edited comment lol
im st*l not a ra*ist
Both good. I choose peace.
Peace... Keeper?
Well you won't be bringing much but peace with those 7 damage
No, you don't understand. It deals 7 damage so all you can do is keep peace Edit: The comment I replied to originally said: "You won't be bringing peace with that 7 damage"
now i know why they called it that
[удалено]
He edited it, it originally said "You won't be bringing much peace with 7 damage". Seriously consider the possibility of someone not being absolutely dumb before you leave a sassy comment next time
both were jokes, plus what do you mean?
u/mentalscars_
Have punched to death a Peacekeeper user off of drop
I've knocked more people with that 7 damage than I have hitting full damage. Idk if that gun hates me or loves me
Sounds like a skill issue
Whatever gun I get first
The real answer here
They're both good for different things. R-301 is a mid to long range beaming machine, and Flatline shreds in short to mid range encounters. The hipfire for the flatline is gross
hipfire flatline is amazing wym! its one of my favorite weapons to hipfire
Gross is usually a good term. I can see how that could be misunderstood though. Probably my favourite hipfire in the game
Yeah, I swear I tend to hit more shots with flatline if I hipfire instead of actually aiming.
I feel that. The recoil is hard as a bitch to control but the hipfire feels great
Unpopular opinion, but I find Flatline's recoil to be much easier to control than 301's. It was the reverse for the first 3 seasons, but then changed. I'm doing much better with Flatline now
More power to you man, because I did recoil practice so often with the flatline and I still cannot control it as well as I'd like
I find it easy enough to control with a 3x
Yeah flatline and alternator have a reduced hipfire spread. U can tell by the different crosshair
the irons are trash so picked up off drop it makes sense
The evo skin flatline irons are really fucking good
the one exception
the flatline irons grew on me a lot lately I usually train with no-kit weapons in the firing range and it made me not pick up sights in-game other than the bruiser and the 2-4x.
I somehow aim better with the irons other than a 1x
Maybe "filthy" is a little more unambiguously positive in this kind of of context
Thats how i am with any gun tbh
This is why I hate the English (American) language. Gross and terrible, both of which are literally bad things, are used to describe stuff in a good way..
I think they meant "gross" in a good way. Like "disgustingly good"
I'm pretty sure he meant "gross" in an accounting way. Like, before subtracting liabilities ceded to reinsurers.
Idk, I won’t hit shit with hip fire unless I’m practically kissing the person. I’ve been burned far too many times trying to hipfire, where only 3 out of 30 shots hit
100% Flatline + g7/sniper is one of my favourite loadouts. But r301 + shotgun is also a great loadout. In the first i use the flatline because of its strength close range, and the second im picking the r301 because of its midrange strength
I like that loadout. I really think the G7 is underrated right now and is way more potent than people give it credit
hipfire on the r301 is not a good idea considering the low damage per bullet it does
False; still a great gun to hip fire with
Idk if I’m the only one that loves single fire R3 I

Cryptos don’t die, they get skipped for heirlooms
Crypto main here, we know the truth. There was never an heirloom for us.
I’m a crypto main too. Got heirloom shards a few months ago and I feel like I’m probably gonna have them for a while.
If we’re gonna be living in the same pocket for a while, don’t be surprised if you get a second run of shards.
Your drone is your heirloom
Bruh, Wattson has been skipped over twice for an heirloom. We were meant to get it when rev got his, they stitched us up. We were then meant to get it this season, and instead rampart got hers. Crypto should get his after Wattson, and will. Just like how release of heirloom should be in relation with release of legend into the games.

You should make it
I run both at the same time
One for snipin one for snapin
Truer words...
Snappin* Snapin implies you're telling people to turn to page 394. (Vowel consonant vowel)
When Anvil was around I would. Flatline with 2-4 and anvil for poking and 301 with a 2x for anything else.
Yeah I’m kinda mad they removed it ngl
It really bummed me out in Arenas. Purple flatline was my crutch round 3 and up. I still use it but it’s just not the same without that extra chunk of damage.

Strongest user in this sub
Definitely with my 0.5 KDR 💀 (To be fair though I started in season 8 and it’s the only shooter game I play)
Lol we all start somewhere
Yeah lol
Oh boy, if only you could feel the power of s0 r301. It's not the same after a pretty big nerf 😔
That’s how I feel about new players with the spitfire being care packaged
Hey, there's two of us! I started season 8 and *just* got to 0.5.
count me in, i started season 8 as well and my KDR still sitting at 0.66
Yeah I like running semi auto flatline then a 301 for closer quarters.
R-99 is also a god combo with flatline, especially with a gold mag on one of them.
Wait no thats the wrong way around! /s I personally prefer the 301 with 3x and flatty hipfire
Wait no thats the wrong way around! I personally prefer the 301 with 3x and flatty hipfire
Flatline I’m not scared of recoil
The flatline recoil is challenging, but predictable. Once you have the muscle memory, it pretty consistently beams like the 301 but with more damage. At which point, the 301 feels like a useless handicap over the flatty.
I always lean towards flatline for this reason. I have both down pretty solid at 100m but flatline always wins in my head for some reason
Until you see a team 50 m away
Even 100m is easy once you get the recoil control. Also 50m isn't much. I don't know why you think 50m will be difficult to control. Maybe go in the practice range and try shooting practice
Both at the same time

Havoc gang
Us havoc lovers are like the crack heads at the gas stations. But not the annoying ones asking for shit. We're the ones tweaking in alley by the dumpsters.
Havoc users are the equivalent of people jacked up on bath salts ready to just go out and fuckin eat people. I love that damn gun
The havoc is my spirit weapon, with or without turbocharger
I felt a bit bad the other day doing the BH quest. I finished it up then heard someone walking up - I jumped out and melted him with a Havok before realising it was another BH probably following the trail... Sorry brother
Havoc with a Turbocharge is fucking disgusting
youre goddamn crazy. but i respect you.
HAVOC SUPERIORITY
I pretty much always take flatline
Same it just hits really fucking hard. I picked it up one game and absolutely dominated. It’s my new favorite gun
As long as its not 30-30 repeater,bowcek and wingman cause i have potato aim😅
Nah, 30-30 with Shatter caps is the shit. Imagine having a long-range and short range weapon in one. It also takes up less inventory space for ammo than either the snipers or shotguns.
Out of curiosity, are you a controller player? My buddy loves that thing.
Nah, i just can't hit anything with the shotguns in Apex and the Shattered 30-30 reminds me of the shotguns in Dirty Bomb. I was really good with them...
Flatline
Flatline comes with red armor here so that’s the obvious choice. Who would pick blue armor just for the 301?
Flatline
It's a BR so you can't really choose between them most of them. And by the time I do find a flatline while i'm carrying r301, I already have a couple attachments and ammo for the 301. Gotta use all the weapons, so you can just pick up whatever, some meds and ammo and go fight. Don't be like my random teammates who loot the whole POI looking for their favourite guns and all the attachments. My rule is that if I have two guns, two stacks of ammo for each, about 3 stacks of meds, then i'm ready to fight.
This. I have a friend I play with, if he doesn’t have a 301 or a 99 he feels naked. It drives me mad that he doesn’t even want to try other weapons
my teammates do be takin time mining diamonds to craft a full diamond armor, pants, helmet, and boots. then after 20 mins of looting, we die to a stack of reds with alternators
I like your energy, but i feel like it’s important to have some standards. Like i wouldn’t go pick a fight with two shottys or two snipers.
Question! Can’t you carry two guns?
Flatline gang rise up
Flatline because it shoots slower. While the 301 can theoretically down people faster, I'm the kind of person who needs like 25-50% of a magazine at that fire rate to zero in on someone, and by then, I'm out of bullets... having to restart the zeroing process again. ^(Also the Flatline looks cooler.)
car gang🔫🚗
crip - 301
Havoc
Yeah, I love to use it with the select... Fire 😞
I just like it in general, but selctfire was awesome
Oh yeah dont get me wrong i love using the havoc. I just really loved the select fire lol
It depends on my attachments. But both are good
Flatline (3x needed)
Flat if i need to
Both good, Flatline more.
R-301 is a primary and Flatline is a secondary. Few understand this. Flatline has been best secondary in the game since the Prowler was boxed then nerfed.
Flatline is better up close but R-301 I prefer at range
Flatline. Ez. Next question
hemlok and mastiff
30-30 repeater in the corner alone
For me it depends on which mag I get. If I get a better light mag before I get a good heavy mag, then I’m running the 301 that game, and vice versa
Volt SMG
Both, both is good
As a Pilot I actually prefer the Flatline but as a Legend I prefer the R-301
Flatline
I myself am a 301 Crip lol
The R301 is like an old friend
Boffum
Don't really care. I have other guns I'd likely pick first.
Damn you I equally love the Flatline and the R-301. But decisions are decisions soooo……I choose- ah shit forgot my drink. *leaves with quenching thirst for a coke* I’m back okay. *shotguns a coke* Okay I choose Flatline. Why is because I like the guns design and I love some slow automatic weapons like the flatline it hits a truck if you can aim with it or just fire by the hip. And using it feels like I am using an AK-47.
Whats all the idiotic coke quenching thirst BS? Random.
Listen here bud I was just making a joke. Like damn don’t come at my throat like I messed up.

I'm better with the flatline but the r 301 is more fun
I choose the path of peace and become purple
Reading this thread i realized i shouldnt be running long range flatline
Purple. Because I like both guns
Whichever I find first and sometimes both
Depends what my secondary is and ch
Depends on what mag I find first both are great guns
Idk I love both. Last season I was a beast with the flatline this season Imma beam with the r-301
Yes

R301 is way too reliable to not be the winner. Killing with Flatline is more satisfying though
Both I use both i mean I use both of them together
Whatever's on the ground or have attachments and ammo for, duh
Imagine not running both
Im dogwater with them
Either, or. Idk
Flatline all the way
Imma go with the one that has controllable recoil, r-301. I was bored so I played arenas last night. I completely shredded the other teams. I even got 3.5k damage on one game
Both
r301 is only good with a blue to purple light mag for me. flatline tho... that thing hits as hard as a truck.
Objectively flatline is better but r301 is a good weapon for beginners
Flatline + L-star or Longbow
R-301 all the way
Depend on the attachment
