for me and it seems, a good deal of the community, the primary problem is the lack of weapons having range.
we seem to now have to be right up in front of the enemy to reliably hit them.
being a heavy, my experience with this has been even worse. the effective range of the HMG is now around 10-13 meters for the non-assault variants.
the consensus from the other heavies i have talked with is that due to the suit buff, we can swear with the HMG lossing some damage as the exchange.
however, the range reduction (which for us has been the hardest as it got it's base range reduced, not just lossing SS) has extremely reduced its effectiveness.
to top it off, we have noticed it running out of ammo and having to reload FAR more often. couple that with supply depots seemingly no longer giving out ammo and we are in a dire situation.
on to range over all. as i stated, it seems no one is enjoying the reduction in their weapons range.
and here's the thing, think about the fact that eventually we will have the ENTIRE maps to fight on.....the only thing that will be used could very well be the sniper rifle and rail tanks....as nothing else has any bloody range.
love the new look and feel of the game, along with the improved mechanics, but the range reduction where bloody ridiculous. if we can't get back sharp shooter, at least buff everythings range (HMG in particular, it's NOT supposed to be a rappid fire shotgun)
another thing is that the game occasionally terminates matches and having checked my own wallet, and my squad mates having done the same, we didn't get compensated for time played, any info on that would be appreciated. |

new feedback, easier as a heavy to get kills with the FG, that should NOT be happening |

every weapon SHOULD be at it's base range, just lost SS. the exception is the HMG, it had its base range REDUCED |

HMG's shouldnt have been nerfed past the loss of sharpshooter (or at least not as hard). But honestly the average engagement range in the last build was getting silly for what it looked like the game was trying to do.
everything else i appreciate the response on, but i find that engagments at 10-15 meters to be redicoulous, give me a cross bow, it works just as well at those ranges |

Im glad you appreciated the response!
constructive critisism and differing experiences always welcome |
