I'd say no.
Lasers have their uses, but still not "overpowered".
Mass Driver, situational weapon with a (somewhat) learning process.
AR's? Not really, the Iron Sights are based on ones preference, stats-wise its balanced.
HMG/Heavy? Situational, long range Heavy's are a joke. This is the first build that I believe Heavy's have been given some of their Replication power, and CCP has hit the sweet spot.
Scramblers, lolno (unless you can use them well, although ADS is near useless (imo)).
Forge? Militia needs looking at, I don't mind them being used for infantry, although they need more "shakiness" at first, which can be reduced through Forge operation/proficiency.
Swarms? They're alright now. Not the best against tanks/dropships, but when used by 2-4 people, they are pretty harsh, especially the advanced variants.
Grenades? The timer once on the ground needs major increase, cooking should be rewarded.
Shotgun? Same as always, pretty balanced.
RE's? Situational "weapon", good for defending.


Any other opinions?





Female suits? Too secksy.

The truth is only skill as a player counts now in determining who wins battles..

Don't think were playing the same game, not much skill involved it comes down to who has the best set up or who is in the biggest group.

On topic my opinion is op

This opinion is what's wrong with beta testers mindset in the game.

Auto-target blaster installations are OP.

Apart from that, I don't have any complaints.

I think the fact that forge guns can two shot a 6000+ vehicle from halfway across the map as well as OHK infantry is pretty ridiculously OP.

Blaster turrets are fine. The AI has a narrow field of view for spotting targets. You just need to know how to sneak up on one and use cover.

If you come across one that seems completely unapproachable, try having a squad mate distract it by shooting it, then approach from the side to capture.

I pretty much make it personal policy to just pop that one.

But then i also pop any fixed installation not controlled by blueberries. put a forge on a roof and fire on it from enfilade. should solve the problem.

Nothing is overpowered. While its all very well people saying 'sniper rifle is OP, mass driver is OP, laser rifle is OP, railgun is OP etc', unless the people accusing said items of being OP have used the real world equivalent to support their OP claim......they have nothing to back up their claim at all, and considering there are no real world equivalent weapons (sniper rifle yes, rail gun sniper rifle no).......there is no way to tell if anything IS OP.
The only thing that's OP are the blueberries who can't hit s**t so they claim everything is OP.

What a ridiculous argument. Real life is irrelevant to whether or not the gameplay is inducive to HAVING FUN. It doesn't make one lick of difference how "realistic" something is if it isn't well balanced within the context of the gameplay. Each item needs to be as relatively useful as each other item, or else there's no reason to bother putting those other items in the game, let alone anyone actually bothering to use them.

Bro I was being sarcastic, but its a very valid argument.
You can't claim something is OP if there is nothing to compare it to, which makes my previous post very much spot on.
And 99.9% of people who scream 'OP' are people have just started playing, who have no idea of the skills that can be learned related to each weapon, or dropsuit, or shield/armor, they don't cry 'OP' when its THEM using the supposed OP weapon, only when its used against THEM.

The HMG is far too powerful right now.

To be fair, I think the emphasized is CCP's fault, and I think you've hit on a bigger issue than we think about sometimes. I get that it's a beta, but they really need to start giving us some damn instructions to beta test :)!

Seriously, for a game with this much mechanics going on, it can be pretty frustrating finding answers to some questions. And while SP is in a pretty good place now I think, it still takes enough time that trial and error with it is a real turn-off. Help new players understand how things are supposed to work, help get them started, and you have less of a problem with the boy crying OP later. I think they added some this build or the last that was a real step in the right direction, but they could still use some newbie hand-holding. FWIW, I thought this was a weak point of EVE Online as well, so take that for what it is. A game with a steep learning curve should have good tutorials... seriously, if we're dropping isk and SP into stuff, give us a GD training area. A merc who's never flown a day in his life being expected to learn on the fly in battle is very silly.
