How is it this game will grow when we keep nerfing everything that kills the weaker players?

They wanted points for scans, said this would cause the players to grab them since WPs are involved. The merc should want to have a scanner for assisting his team, not for WPs. The changes come and people cry about folks scanning.

The AR, a weapon that I loved and thought was just fine. Yet folks wanted a nerf on the AR because they got tired of being killed by them. But let's just forget that weapons at the time were limited. Now folks advocate for the buff.

The RR is next on the chopping block and is getting a damage nerf. Why? Because the crybabies are tired of being dropped by it and every pub player copies every other pub player. Nevermind the CR is beast mode.

This is nerve wracking. These changes come on the heels of players who cry for nerfs and they don't know what the heck they are talking about.

So what kind of end game are we going to have? Does it just take a bandwagon of ignorant players to get a nerf axe swinging your way? What gives?

you are going to be dealing with this every patch. CCP will always have a FoTM to Nerf. It promotes booster sales for those guys that just have to have it now. Low on skill buy aurum. Its money in the bank. Guess what's going to be OP next?

I propose that their game testers/developers have PC matches. Get involved with highly competitive players and judge this game with 100% knowledge instead of pub matches where players don't know what the heck they doing, don't know anything about much more powerful weapons and have no sense tactic. Like I said, not all, but there's alot in this community who are destroying this game. If you're so bent on pleasing console players then you have no idea how bratty and silly console players are. Even with these changes, it's almost a guarantee those who want this nerf won't be playing this game by middle of this year. I'm not threatening but this catering to the new players thing keeps pushing people who invested into this game and took their butt whoopings, threw some dirt on it and kept going.

FOTM, UP, OP, Nerf, Buff, there will always be these issues, And those issues are in every game. Adaptation keeps sp flowing, play time, expenditures high. free game? gotta pay to play.... someday. 1.8 should be somewhat epic changes for Dust, But opinion rules here in these parts, because they pay to play. You are thinking too simplisitic and you approached my topic with just automated general response. Weapons that aren't used by the pub playing majority survive nerf axe swings because the pub playing majority doesn't know about them. If they did, they would advocate nerf, get others in on their bandwagon and then CCP would look at it to make changes. And that perspective is limited in itself. Because when you step into PC, everything you think you know about Dust is out the window. Let a pub match player step in with a commando and RR thinking he will trump and you will be able to hear tears fall while orbiting Alpha Centauri Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. For the State!!

Let me get this straight... You're saying that weaker players need to be continually curbstomped so that the game will grow? You're not thinking outside the box or objectively. But check this out, something people don't talk about. The weaker players getting curbstomped only play ambush day in and day out!!! They don't play Dom or Skirm, which can lengthen your life span and allow for a broader approach instead of being thrown in a blender with more experienced players. Everyone is spread out. So how in the hell a pub player who plays only Ambush can warrant what should be nerfed or not? Do you even think brah? Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. For the State!! [email protected]

Does it just take a bandwagon of ignorant players to get a nerf axe swinging your way? What gives? A game with longer TTK. All the weapons are getting nerfed. My friend, RR is getting a damage buff and then he says the others are following. Meaning, they KNOW and have a plan on RR based on what they read on forums The other weapons getting nerfed part is to just quiet the folks like me who will be upset. The joke of the matter? They don't even know how they are buffing the other weapons but they know what to buff with the RR? Read between the lines my friend. They were influenced by a short sighted community who just plays ambush pubs. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. For the State!! [email protected]

Bras don't think, but they lift and support! On a real note, scanners were meant to only be able to scan a wedge shaped area from the start. The spin-to-win mentality was actually an unintended exploit. The over abundance of scanning came when the community felt that they should get WPs for the scanned targets. Once that came into play, scanning grew. This is truth Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. For the State!! [email protected]

So I just accept that mercs who don't think objectively and only think of the immediate has the power to change the game to benefit them because they are unwilling to adapt?

So how in the hell a pub player who plays only Ambush can warrant what should be nerfed or not? Do you even think brah? How many PC games did you play this week? What you advocate is ignoring the desires and opinions of 95 percent of the players and listening to 5 percent, although I see plenty of calls for nerf/buffing among vets as well. Most people in pub matches seem to play all three modes. Why do you think they only play Ambush? How many did you play? The forums aren't 95 percent of the playerbase?! Again, do you even think brah or you just blurt words? Why do I think they only play Ambush? Your word sir. Curbstomped. Curbstomping happens mostly in Ambush. Curbstomping isn't nearly as frequent in objective based games. I know because I play those modes. Soon as you get into Ambush, curbstomping fun. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. For the State!!
