To the OP: This phenomenon is known as "recall bias." (Look it up)
Also, I'm calling BS on the "this isn't about the FG, it's about the way CCP balances things" backpedal. |

Thanks, I did, after the title of the thread - I consider them to both be part of the same "opening statement", as it were. I also read posts # 20, 31, 45, and to a lesser extent 16 and 58; Not buying it.
You cannot tell me most people would read those posts and have no reason to believe you think the FG is OP and needs to be "balanced" (I'll avoid the dreaded n word). In fact, you definitely cannot because otherwise well over half the responses here would not exist!
You may be experiencing additional emotional distress because theoretically CCPs methods of handing out "balances" will keep the FG from ever being looked at, but that philosophical question (if a weapon is OP in the forest, but no one is there to hear it, is is OP?) is unequivocally not the only issue you have here. |

CCP seems to balance weapons on some statistics that are blind to individual weapons possibly being OP, unless tons of people use them and register kills.
So if there existed a dropsuit and gun which could literally not die, and literally kill anything by looking at it-- YET for whatever reason many people did not flock to it as FOTM -- it would never get a nerf. Because statistically it does not look OP. Just a few people using a totally broken weapon. Ironically. We have most of the players using a broken, OP weapon and it hasn't gotten a nerf. It's usually the minority players that get screwed actually. Hail AR 514.
It took a little longer than usual for you to butt in, Buster. The thread is pretty much over now. |
