I started this game in the start of open beta, I got so stoked an amazed with the freedom of designing my player. I knew nothing of dust or eve or even fps for the more part.

I tried many suits an fell in love with the scout, I wanted to be a amazing nova knifer/ shotgunner like the people that killed me.
I got into a corp an made goals for myself an I kept track of my learning progress.
Ie: what to do, what not to do, range for a shot, how to sneak an stab, ect, ect.

Then came uprising an we all got so excited, then the nerfs came an all our play styles had to change; it became harder to know what our progress really was.

One week were good , next week our shots are off, then we get accustomed to it an something else changes.

It's very hard to know if we're good or not or to beat our kill records when the mechanics change.
For example my best with the sg was about 20 then the gun changed, tithe strafe an the stamina, now I'm about 12 to fifteen.
With novas I was about 24 then similar changes an hit detection came to light an now running knives with no sidearm is a death sentence with all the changes to strafe an stamina an my own hit box.
So I tried the faylock on uprising for a range weapon an also a md, since they were good hit an run weapons .

Now all of these do not work as they once did an everytime I gett accustom to the updates about two weeks of playing like crap just to adjust then the game changes again an the cycle repeats.

I'm no noob I play everyday an have almost 17 million sp, but it's all speced into horrible weapons, so I said f$$k it an went around with remote s an trapping guys an using my grenades to set them off or my teams fire an made a new record for myself of 26/2 with no gun!
Week later 1.3 comes out an everyone has cried about everything in the game an ccp silently nerfs the remote explosive!

Now I basically have a 17 million isk smg since everything I used to use is broke or changed so much I can't make a acceleration of kills or progress or beat old kill goals because nothing works as it used to or it keeps changing an I can't tell if it's me or the game.

Players need consistency!

Cod, battlefield may suck but people love the consistency .

Yes people cry for balance but balance is consistency .
Why spend more time an money when what you have is different than what you bought!

If you buy bread an it looks good when you buy it but it's covered in mold when you get home will you still eat it?

Hell no , chuck it or take it back.

Ccp this is happening!

3x sp or 2x sp has so many on line because they need new weapons an they travel to what works in the moment.

In the process of this nerfing to find balance you will always create a higher imbalance due to the fact that there are amazing players an poor players, high sp/ low sp, good equipped suits / poor set up suits.

So find a standard weapon balance an keep it there.
Do a once over on everything an leave it. We will adjust to it being op or not at least we kno what were getting into an we can track our progress.

If you keep changing the game players can't tell if there getting better an they will leave for another game with consistency .
