There is a reason for the added 10%. You see.. People stopped playing when they-¦re AR-¦s felt like butter. This is why there is no turning back. The AR is just fine as it is now.

this thread is bad.

Anyone who posts in it should feel bad.

Mostly because I can't figure out what the hell the problem with the damage increase is if it affects everyone evenly.

Did you get touched in a bad place with a Viziam?

Show us on the doll where the Viziam touched you.

Did you know my my mass driver can out DPS the AR right now?

I do know you are what? 12? Perhaps 13 years old??

This game is still in development. Why are so many people forgetting this?

Barring necessary buffs for weapons that got nerfed for no reasondamage was perfectly fine. People needed skill and actual aim to land shots on people and track their targets. Now people are trying to play the AR like back in chromosome, praying and spraying from outside their optimal range and beating you with clip size and damage mods instead of skil. Yeah, I said it. People who wanted the damage boost have terrible gun game.

Come at me bro!

What people are you talking about?

No more nerfing. I like that my shotgun one shot kills again. You know like it's suppose too. And don't want to hear how this is not a typical fps. ITS SUPPOSE TO KILL IN ONE SHOT. SHOT GUN FOR BLOODY SAKE.

So.. i'm really the only one that have notice the " Come Back " of Pub Storming yesterday ?

Almost every battle i was on, was "Pub Storming"... Do you remember why new people use to play the game only for 5 minutes in the old build ?... I think you do.

The pubstomps are mainly caused by there being nothing but pub-matches available atm (in case you forgot, corp battles were replaced with FW pubs on the 6th); once PC hits, they'll be too busy attacking districts to bother pubstomping. At least for a while.

Another factor is pubstomps being the highest SP/time activity due to how SP is allocated. This is why pubstomps happen mostly in the days following Wednesdays. Once they cap out, it's back to corporation warfare (except they don't have any of that until the 14th, so it's pubstomps all-day-erryday until then instead).

Finally, it's down to poor matchmaking that doesn't seem to take corporation/player ranking into account (such a tweak would help regulate certain forms of stat padding btw). I've literally had matches where we had two 3 man squads from unknown corps, plus a bunch of random NPC corp guys (like myself), against two 6 man squads from Seraphim Initiative and Vacuum Cleaners. The matchmaker seems to use the existence of squads as a balancing mechanic, but it doesn't seem to account for how many are in the squad or how good those players are.

I've started quitting matches in the lobby where the matchmaker set us up the bomb against a full team of competitive corps.

Basically the damage buff and pubstomps are completely separate issues.



Oh... and this thread is now about Heavies getting their bacon back.
