This left me wondering "Better, for whom? CoDfish?"

If anything the game is worse. Far far worse. More Freemium, more strafing idiots (CoDfish) and more of all the things that made DUST514 bad.

The rail rifles are still seriously OP for range, accuracy and DPS. Seriously, Rail cannons are the slowest, shortest range weapons on the field, but they do an insane amount of damage, if they hit anything. Why are Rail Rifles high RoF, High Precision, AND high DPS?
Make up your minds CCP.

Sniper rifles are yet again nerfed into even more uselessness. Now their range such that they have to get to meele range. And being low RoF, have massive recoil sway, and don't do all that much damage really, they are deadly. For the one using them that is. It used to be fun, though low WarPoints game, and snipers still had to be careful, but now? Snipers are just suicidal.

Ass.Dropships are still reigning unchecked, raining death from above practically unopposed, baring other dropships chasing them. In a way that's fine, if it wasn't for the fact that this was one of the reasons Snipers were nerfed in the first place. CoDfish crybabies screaming about snipers killing them. The most effective weapon against snipers were then other snipers, and Dropships, or fast scouts. And they nerfed that role to oblivion, but the elephant in the room, Ass.DS, are even more untouchable, yet remain.

I'm afraid what CCP will do next to further screw up this game, all in the name of more AUR, and placating idiots.

I'm not exactly sure what a codfish is but you are pretty much wrong on all accounts. The RR is a long range weapon, fairly accurate at range, but struggles in dps and CQC.

Sniper rifles are a bit Meh but the range was nerfed to prevent/limit redline sniping. It's all about headsets now.

Assault dropships are fairly weak at the moment. Any decent AVer can deal with them solo.

Wrong rr is op in cqc.

I am now Kratos. It seems all I can do are melee attacks with the blades of chaos. Range: 15m. I'm insta-gibbing most assaults with it. Sentinels might take two or three hits. You should be able to grapple to a dropship now and do a QTE sequence to down it . Time for a platform jump. Dust to WiiU!
