If you nerf one, you have to nerf the other....otherwise lol. Yea let's nerf the heavy AV weapon and leave AV rail guns alone... yea that makes sense.
Tanks are not infantry. But considering rail sniping, I think CCP will change them too.
Nerfing the splash damage or radius seems like the most effective method of s reducing the infantry qq yet still keeping both rails and forges effective against vehicles, neither or those things are that important when shooting at a vehicle. Of course this being CCP they'll probably throw something else into the mix to screw it up. |

Of course this being CCP they'll probably throw something else into the mix to screw it up. Why nerf direct damage? If you get a direct hit with those things, you deserve a kill, infantry or not.
I didn't say that, I said "splash damage or radius", direct hits should stay where they are, damage wise they're pretty good against vehicles right now, it's stuff like falloff, knock back, and vehicle EHP that needs fiddling with. |

Most folks can't use it because A: no scope b:Takes alot of work to get used to using it. its also very easy to defeat. Not our problem snipers dont take us out. Because they aren't assault rifles. I remember hearing over chat (I know who it was, because they were a corpmate- I'm not in the corp anymore, so **** them) during codex, when assault rifles were super OP, an AR user got killed by an SMG, and they said SMGs were no-skill weapons and they should get a real gun. Coming from the guy using the laser-accurate AR with long range and no recoil.
Yeah I've heard similar stuff this build about various stuff that is actually pretty well balanced, it's a gamer mentality. |

I can name a dozen games i've watched it occur in, although almost none of you will know of them as they all deterioated into unplayability and are now closed down. imo developing games are like cooking a fine high class dinner, you go to school, you study and practice, you learn how to do it and then you get it done, what occurs in communities like these is if after all that time learning to develop you went and asked 14 year old high school kids to make the meal for you.....you're just going to end up with kraft dinner and if your lucky it might have ketchup.
Yeah I have to agree with this, player feedback is important, it's no use cooking a meal if none of your customers want to eat it and would prefer something else. But there's a line that needs to be walked, and the hordes of qq'ers (typically AR players, but not always) tend to push the devs too hard, in some cases it's warranted like the tac AR or flaylock, but most of the time it's just a vocal minority wanting their gear to be the best. |
