Please Make Gunners Useful

Personally I think that says more about the debate than anything else. That's a screen taken from past videos of the Cogs Tournament Finals. Meaning that these are high skill teams going for the gold. You'll notice that most of them opt out of taking a gunner. To put it another way, when it comes down to getting every advantage you can for the best chance of victory, they chose to get rid of the gunner.
Gunning does have some advantages over being an engineer, there's no doubt about it. But those advantages are minimal at best. And when you weigh the pros and cons of that last slot being an engineer or gunner, competitive teams often go with engineer.
So why do other people still require a gunner on their team? Maybe they feel they should have one just in case, or maybe it's just to help define the roles on the ship. Usually they just like having a gunner, as most of the time they'll be using one particular ammo type, switching to the other types relatively infrequently. Of course it all really comes down the ships and guns being used.
Either way, Muse seems to have plans in the works to address this.

I don't know where you got this screenshot. The last COG's season was the Gents vs the Paddling and we run gunners on all our boats.

When i hear people want to "improve" gunner class and personally think it's pretty ok as is, it's like an allergic reaction.
How? Aim assists? bigger and faster guns? More guns?
I love being a gunner. It's straightforward, not too fussy and you live with what your captain can do. Rest is up to you.
Engineer is a bit stressful.

I think that was Cogs season 3? I was looking for videos of GoIO tournaments and I can't seem to find anything particularly fresh. It could just be that I don't know who's been streaming them recently. I believe those particular shots are from Qwerty's twitch.

Cogs Season 3 hasn't started yet.
Those are screenshots from the semi-final of the Cogs Season 1 Finale, which was on May 18th.

A long time ago.
