What makes the Whisper more OP than the standard OCA? If you say range, try going up against an HVR at 50m+.

  

DMR-AV is the same as the DMR, except it is Anti-Vehicle.

 

.45 vs FBW is debatable. Also, ask anyone, and the FBW is probably the best all around secondary in the game.

1. You compare a SMG in a range fight with a HVR ? Nice shit dude, lets compare the HVR vs NFAS at 1m distance

2. You want to say the FBW is in any situation better than the .45 ? No. 45 does more damage, has way more range and is more consistent.
FBW is just easier to use, because you can spam and pray and compensate missed shots with a bigger mag.

Whisper

CSG

Fang Ok, the Fang does have 7m more range than the in game RFP

.45 AP

DMR- AV

 

As far as the Yukon Nano UL3, there is the in game marketplace if for whatever reason you actually prefer these.

 

If you want to play hundreds of hours to be able to buy 1 legendary weapon. Ok.

For JT-Store Weapons you have to play active for 1 entire week to be able to buy 1 weapon for only 1 week. Nice, totally worth.

Yes, I compared teh OCA Whisper to the HVR, because the ONLY thing it has over the base OCA is range.

And? There are still ways to get those "Pay2Win" weapons in game, thus, removing the "Pay" part.

i mean he does have a point, doing both fight club gold rewards would get you a weapon, but i’m not sure a new/bad player would be able to do baylan gold without investing a lot of time

 

and low level contact dailies only give out 10(?) JTs per daily, i’m not even sure you could get 700 JTs in one week from that

It'd take two weeks, if you got 50 per day.

 

But still, removes the "pay" part.

Are you calling weapons reskin p2w? well dude you're in a big trouble my friend. Most of the weapons in-game has the same version but without the colored logo in the scoreboard. 

[Nanometic 265]

When calling something pay-2-win you should compare it to other weapons in the same category that is free-2-play and then make a decision, for example, people keep bringing up the csg, compare it to the JG.  Try to imagine that the person using the weapon in this situation is a person who understand how to play with the weapon to its full effect.

This game has a history of certain P2W weapons being added in over time. Trouble Maker? Had a near 8 month dominance before getting nerfed. ATAC? Still extremely good compared to it's previous state, literal console aim and spray weapon. Yukon? P2W, I mean c'mon. 

 

Last but not least, there is that new 60m Obir Secondary that literally every single person uses, nothing more over powered than a pistol that can out range an NTEC and is more accurate.

 

Overall, I'd say the game isn't P2W, but there are certainly a few P2W weapons along with a history of P2W weapons being added in and nerfed over significant periods of time. This game has horrid weapon balance, and the previous owners clearly didn't even have a combined 10 hours district time between them so as a result we're stuck with a very, very unbalanced game with weapons that were added without any consideration of their overall impact.

Never really saw a problem with the the troublemaker...fighting wise, when it was first released i barley used it as i didn't like it that much.

it was the fact that not only did it function as an smg but could also be tap fired effectively like an ntec up to ridiculous ranges. I believe this was before the exponential systems for recoil and bloom were put in place for certain weapons like the trouble maker and ntec.

Its pay2lookgewd...  :V

The only p2w weapon is the cobra :^)

And the toy knife is an ARMAS weapon. Most are reskins. So they function identically to the base gun. The few that aren't reskins, are niche weapons.

The CSG and TAS have a normalized spread while the JG has completely random spread. It also has less pellets so if a pellet misses due to the random spread it affects its  damage dramatically. The normalized spread results in a more reliable two shot.

 

The whisper pr1 (which is not obtainable through joker tickets) has a drop-off range of 50m while the oca has 30m. Even if you add a IR3 you only get 37m and it's accuracy drops significantly. That is a HUGE (26%) range advantage over the in-game counterpart.

I don't understand how people in this game can say the game is not pay to win? I think a lot of people are getting fooled into thinking that since there are only a handful of p2w guns in a sea of reskins and  "think" the game for the most part isn't pay to win. I want to be clear though, i do not have any issues defeating players that use armas weapons. I am not speaking out of rage or anger, I am speaking with just facts.

But the thing is there are armas guns in the game that statistically have better and or unobtainable stats.

And you honestly think you are going to snipe, reliably, at 50m with a Whisper, against any other mid range gun? Seriously... If that is why you think the Whisper is "Pay2Win"....

 

Secondly, you wanna see Pay2Win, or play some mobile/browser games, or, go try out Evony. Come back, and let me know what is Pay2Win about APB.

What do you consider a pay to win gun??? An item where you just press a button and you just win the mission? Don't take the term "Pay to Win" so literally. You pay to have an advantage, it doesn't literally mean you pay to instantly win. And don't go ignoring my CSG/TAS example.
