Whenever they roll out a large new patch, they accompany it with one of these 3x events to bring people out of the woodwork, stress test their mechanics all week and see how the patch is holding up.

In the mean time, they are stressing out the players with poor patch implementation by offering up what is clearly unbalanced mechanics that swing wildly in favor from one weapon to the next, again and again.

It wouldn't be so bad if there was something else to do in DUST, like a single-player mode, where you're not constantly combating with mechanics that are seemingly perpetually not in your favor; unless you enjoy utilizing fit of the month but despite that, you are as much as a victim to the mechanics even in doing so.

If you feel that you have to take advantage of the FOM to stay competitive, that's even worse, because it's forcing you into a specific play style rather than allowing you to develop your own.
