The match went like this;
We reached the objective first, got the hack and the match was really fun we kept the hack but we were dying some and they were dying some and I was doing pretty well with my alt and basic / frontline gear, but then the tide changed! We were assault by 4 jumpy splash damage weapon users and at that point, I just sort of sat back and watched.
We had then their MCC totally down to its shield and were up by 14 clones but when the mass drivers began to appear and jumpy suits and plasma cannons, the numbers quickly changed! They got the hack and kept it and cloned us out by 48 clones!
MASS DRIVERS
PLASMA CANNONS
JUMPY SUITS
It's easy mode. They said "oh crap we're losing time to be cheap" and I've never seen so many jumpy mass driver players at one time and jumpy plasma cannon players at one time it looked like a child's birthday party and all the kids were jumping in a ball pit!
CCP REALLY?
Just because you run around with a shotgun or an explosive splash damage weapon doesn't make you a good player, in my opinion it makes you a chump!

Seriously, ignore the title and read the link below all the way through. It's a very good read.
I'm not trolling. Read it and notice how it points out so many different viewpoints on perceptions of game balance.
LinkZen in this game comes from understanding that not everyone will be happy, so just run whatever the hell you want and stop whining about what other people run.
In my personal opinion, anything allowed by game rules that aren't considered cheats, hacks, or exploits are all fair game. I haven't whined about anything since and in all honesty, its a far better mindset to have.
