Just because you play a video game does not mean you know how to balance it.
Just because you have an opinion or an idea, doesn't mean it is a good one.
I love reading how most of the nerds around here think they have figured out how to balance the game and weapons. Sure, CCP has dropped the ball with a lot of things but I am still not convinced that the people in these nerd convention threads know how to fix it any better than CCP does.
Very rarely is much thought put into threads that provide constructive feedback (spreedsheets/data) for balancing weapons and equipment.

I love reading when nerds with an inflated sense of importance or intelligence calls out nerds for voicing their opinions on the game.
Newsflash nerd, people like to voice their opinions and seeing if anyone shares their opinion or if their opinion can be compounded upon and made better - I apologize if people sharing their opinions bothers you. |

What if I told you both the Forum QQers and the Devs are the worst sources of input for the game, but those who give constructive critisism should be listened to. |

And just because you develop a game does not mean you know how to balance a game.
Sorry to be a bit smartazz but that is a fact also.
It's true that Dust is already such a huge entity itself with so many aspects that not a single person can fully and truly understand everything.
The best is that there's a lot of feedback from many sources - and that those sources understand that their opinion and perspective is just one amongst others.

So you would bash those who would toss ideas around to see if a fix can be made? GG

By occasionally reading the forums the developers are able to augment in-house design teams with crowd-sourced brainstorming and bug reporting...
... so :-P |

It's not the fact that people share their opinions, it's how they share it...mostly it is abstract and useless yet said with the conviction of someone who has spent an entire career studying something. |

The irony of posting on a game forum while calling a group out people for doing the same thing. The act of making a game does not imply that it is balanced. Time and time again CCP has done some of the most random stuff with this game. |

I would rather Hear a long detailed post rather than AR's are OP, MD's are OP, or LR's are UP.
I would rather hear
The Assault Rifle Out DPSes light blaster turrets or The Recoil resets allowing for feathering.
or
The Explosives do full damage at the edge of their blast radius
or
Laser rifles do not have the range nessecary to fill their niche |

stop talking about balance, we need the rest of the tools in game before balance is possible.
also, when have you ever read the forums and thought "man, these guys really know the game"? |
