No

Weapons with puny weak explosives just feel like useless toys, and making a whole category of weapons feel extremely gamey and weak makes for a bad shooter.

Explosives are dangerous, they should hurt, and they should kill you. I don't give a crap about all of these people's "skillz" arguments. Modern and certainly futuristic weaponry isn't meant to be a show of skill, it is meant to do it's job efficiently. Skill has no merit in a weapons balance argument to begin with. Compare the numbers and the weapons applications and tactics, not your epeen to some other faceless avatar's epeen.

Ha, or 'No'

'Yes' explosive hurt - so do bullets -your argument is null. Above 'Shooter', this thing is a 'game', and it is the type of game which rewards you by feeling like there is some degree of control over your destiny - i.e. skill

"Skill has no merit in a weapons balance argument to begin with." ?
LOL! - You dont even want to be required to face the right direction to get your kill !

CCP ^ ( I think he may have forgotten to add "or run over by an LAV" ) please fix this before it just becomes a pasttime of the skill- and care-less? Translation: Complaining If you want to complain about something that is statistically, or technically broken, you might be bringing something to the table, If you don't want to deal with these factors then why are you playing such a game? There are games that will constrict and limit the actions of everyone so they can play by a small set of parameters and freely compare skill/epeen.

I'm not forgetting you mad bomber remote explosive guys either, and last but not least all of the murder taxi drivers out there! Thank you, for extracting the tears and whines of those that just can't deal with it, for making children and man boys around the world throw temper tantrums at their televisions for not having the game go their way. Thank you! Keep up the chaos of battle! Make fragile egos cry! Get blown to pieces against more organized forces! Salute!

Its just annoying for longer term players, perhaps because splash puts more down to chance... Reign it in ccp?

Anyway, You muppet, read the thread, grenades and flaylocks are the main problem, general consensus You muppet, read your own title and OP of your own self serving thread, and tell me why anyone looking to do anything other than to troll it would apply the dignity of thoughtfully trying to speak to you in the first place, oh ye of grand judgement, and decider of skill. Some other guy said it best, "stupid thread is stupid"

This just sounds like a bunch of backpeddaling and rewording on your part just to have an argument over a rant thread. I quoted your OP. All there is to this thread is right there.
