I keep picking paper and I keep losing. Scissors needs a serious nerf.
EDIT: So apparently we have people becoming angry that this thread is garnering attention while theirs slips into the abyss that is pages 2 - x. I'd like to simplify this message even more for ya.
The origional purpose of this thread was to condense all of the "Nerf this, buff this" threads into one simple statement. Everyone wants their playstyle buffed and wants their counter nerfed.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm glad people are having fun.
This game is a giant rock-paper-scissors match. How often are you going to kill an Assault suit with a swarm launcher? Now how many tanks can you blow up with it? If I pick up a shotgun, will it be easier to get up close to a heavy or a scout? When I start hipfiring my SMG, am I attacking a close-up player or am I trying to take out a sniper? When I run down a tank in a dropship, am I staying high enough to keep out of the turrets tracking range, or am I staying low to the ground?
Every other thread in this forum is "Nerf them, buff me". Rather than picking paper all the time, try rock. You just might beat scissors. |

Nah, rock is fine. Paper can take rock, scissors are the ones in serious need of a nerf |

Raj: I'll tell you what, how about we go rock-paper-scissors? Sheldon: Eww, I don't think so. Anecdotal evidence suggests that in the game of rock-paper-scissors, players familiar with each other tie 75-80% of the time due to the limited number of outcomes. I suggest "rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock. It's very simple. Scissors cuts paper, paper covers rock, rock crushes lizard, lizard poisons Spock, Spock smashes scissors, scissors decapitates lizard, lizard eats paper, paper disproves Spock, Spock vaporizes rock, andGÇöas it always hasGÇörock crushes scissors."

Now now, you've all missed the point. It's not about the rock, paper, or scissors implementation, it's a problem with the underlying arm delivery system. Clearly nothing can be balanced until the arms are fixed. |

Hi guys,
An update on this:
We found a pretty severe bug with the scissors that made them approximately 6.5x sharper than we intended. We're looking into deploying a hotfix shortly. Conversely, the rock will be getting a slight boost as we're looking to address the fact that it is, well, a rock.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused. |

They said the rock will be getting a 'boost' not a 'buff'.
It's possible this means they're going to start it off on higher ground so it has more inertia when it reaches the target. |

Sorry for any inconvenience caused. Well, I started using paper, and realized it's tank is...well...paper thin. Paper needs an armor boost, I don't think the problem is with scissors. |

Sorry, I should have been more specific in my reply.
We are considering increasing the girth of the rock so that you might be able to hide under it. It is meant to serve as a potential counter to the fourth piece of the combat cycle, "the orbital strike". |

My main on EVE would enjoy this thread.
and I quote my own bio:
'Rock is overpowered, paper is fine' -Scissors
It would seem that scissors are not overpowered. I will say that paper does seem a bit weak, but with the 'boost' that rock is going to get, I'd say it's too much as it is. |

Where does shoe come in to play? Have you guys forgotten about balancing shoe so that it can't withstand as much force from rock, withstand as much cuts from scissor and crumple paper to the extent of ripping?
***EDIT*** Solutions: Increase size of rock so that it can more easily crush shoe. Increase size of scissors so that it can more easily cut shoe. Increase size of paper to increase its chances of covering shoe. |

Pull my finger..... Spock and lizard will die instantly leading to Paper hiding under rock. scissors digging a hole and climbing in it and rock jumping in the lake taking paper with it.....
So what actually needs a nerf?

Why must these threads always start getting off topic. We all know scissors is OP. DEVS NEED TO NERF THEM.
It must be done now or I will rage quit/threaten to leave for another game/ ultimately sulk and come slinking back and hope no one noticed, then change my opinion 2 months down the line when I get crushed by rock after saving for my shiney new hairdresser scissors. |

We're all obviously missing the problem. Everything needs to have a basic version AND a buffed version (except for the rock, which will have just the basic version and then the extreme boulder version). We can avoid all unnecessary nerfing!
You will have your basic rusty old militia scissors, along with sharpened nova-scissors as the buffed counterpart. The militia scissors beat militia paper, but not the enhanced proto-carbon paper (unless exposed for prolonged periods of time). The nova scissors beat militia paper, slices through basic rock, and proto-carbon paper but is beaten by the obviously larger boulder. The basic rock beats militia scissors but is beaten by both paper variants and the nova scissors. The boulder beats basic paper and both scissors, but is beaten by large reams of proto-carbon paper. Finally, militia paper beats rock and is beaten by nova scissors and militia scissors, along with mega-boulder. Proto-carbon paper then beats rock, militia scissors, and extreme rock.
If you feel anything is overpowered, you can opt for one of two options: -An orbital strike, which only extreme boulders can survive. -Aperture science approved Cave Johnson combustible lemon grenades which destroy everything.
+1 Deadpool. that is all. |

After much experience, I have to say that the balancing must've looked good on paper... Until scissors cut the paper, and we wound up with TWO sheets!
clearly, it's Paper that is OP, because it multiplies! My current fix is to use scissors to cut it into a string of dolls instead, those are mostly harmless. However, I would like a patch soon. |

Ok, Doesn't anyone else see the huge problem with this thread? Am I the only one that can see this? Shambo players actually know how this game is played.
You all keep talking about rock as if that is going to change everything. All you Rosham players ever do is say "but it's a Beta", they will implement rock but you must be really gullible if you think that would change anything. Also, we only ever play with paper and scissors. And I have been in a lot of beta's before and they always have everything in them, and they always only ever have paper and scissors. So if you are going to balance the game, paper and scissors need to changed so that any player of equal skill using either paper or scissors has an equal chance of winning. Or you have to remove paper completely and only have scissors. And make the scissors cut better. But if you keep the paper you have to make the paper cut better.
Adapt or die? Well, this is a console game, and no one is going to play Roshambo, whatever that is, like they would on the pc. It has to many syllables. Also no one is going to stick with a console game that is just a bunch of people running around kicking each other in the nuts.
TL;DR I'm probably way too late, ah well |

Don't even get me started on this. The other day I was cruising' around with my scissors, and I found rock. I must've hit him fourteen times, and he didn't even lose half his shields! Then he goes around and one-shots me. I want a refund.... |

-Well, in this game Spock always beats rock. no matter what. Without fail. Spock is the most OP in the whole game and needs to be balanced.
-Well, it will cost you 500,000 isk to use Spock to beat rock. And you will only ever earn 2,000 isk beating rock. You literally will not be able to afford to use Spock against rock.
-Spock is OP. Spock always beats rock. The game needs to be balanced.
-Ok, let me try again. The game is balanced. Even though Spock beats rock, you literally will not be able to afford to just use Spock to beat rock. You are much better off using paper. In this game paper beats rock.
-Spock always beats rock, it is so unfair.
-There just won't be a situation where you would go around using Spock to beat rock. I will say this one more time. You literally can't afford to do that.
-Game needs balance. |

Beleive it or not, I didn't really start this thread intending on it going this way, although I'm glad people are appreciating a bit of a break from forum trolling.
The origional purpose was to condense all of the "Nerf this, buff this" threads into one simple statement. Everyone wants their playstyle buffed and wants their counter nerfed.
This game is a giant rock-paper-scissors match. How often are you going to kill an Assault suit with a swarm launcher? Now how many tanks can you blow up with it? If I pick up a shotgun, will it be easier to get up close to a heavy or a scout? When I start hipfiring my SMG, am I attacking a close-up player or am I trying to take out a sniper? When I run down a tank in a dropship, am I staying high enough to keep out of the turrets tracking range, or am I staying low to the ground?
Every other thread in this forum is "Nerf them, buff me". Rather than picking paper all the time, try rock. You just might beat scissors. |

Thank you - all of you.
Possibly the funnest read I have seen on an active beta forum.
And to the 2 folks in here to whine over a dev poking his head in - think of how much time it takes to toss out a quick joke or 2 compared to fixing a bug. This thread obviously required them to send the Dev with a sense of humor, where a lot of other threads require a bit more coding to resolve than this one.
PS - The Tech 2 paper with the orbital strike guidance package is gonna WTFBBQPWN all of your silly scissors before teabaging everyone dumb enough to play rock. |

Lately paper has been exploiting a mechanic where it can fold into a paper plane and fly to the top of shelfs, and from there throw down rocks at helpless scissors.
This needs fixing! |

I too have been noticing this. Paper is fine however. This thread is about nerfing Scissors, since scissors always beats paper for some odd reason. |

Devs do reply and have replied to feedback when they can confirm something. If a suggestion is made an individual dev can't decide on his or her lonesome to give you anything meaningful in reply unless it has already been discussed and decided on by the team at large. Why would a dev pop in and say that sounds like a great idea only to be supportive of a feature that perhaps can't or won't go in because it's not as simple as yes, we'll do that, it has to be discussed and considered by more than one dev? And simply posting in every suggestion thread that they are aware of the request and considering it seems kind of silly to expect.
The significance of the dev response is in effect evidence of how tiring EVERYONE asking for EVERYTHING to be nerfed can be and I believe appreciation from some of the devs that some of us actually empathize with that aspect of development.
Basically, if it isn't already apparent you're reading way too much into things. The devs are reading, are replying, just not to everything. There's a lot of internal processes that have to take place before official responses can happen.
And . . . rock is broken now. Fix it. It was fine the way it was.

Nerf nerf. Nerf can still hurt a little if thrown of swung with enough force. And if the developers allow that to happen I just don't see the vast majority of people sticking with nerf.
