Looks like the N-TEC is the easiest and most versatile weapon to use. You people complained about how OP the N-TEC was with IR, now it's even more OP because it has more range. Rifles take a large hit in TTK. It's going to be nothing but N-TEC, N-HVR, and shotguns. Did you actually play around with IR3? Put it on ursus and you only needto hold lmb up tp 60m. Put it on NSSW and you only need to hold lmb, put it on ATAC and you only need to hold lmb, put it on star and you alnost only need to hold lmb. See a pattern?

The changes are fine even though i would prefer to revert hvr back to the pre patch but everything else is no problem. Shotguns are acutally more consistent that means if you hit 2 shots you will get the kill that's how it should be, it's a shotgun it's supposed to be one of the most powerful weapons at close combat... Driving up to someone is a part of the game why are you even playing if you complain about everything? ? the jg is way stronger than any smg now. this isn't balanced. yes, shotguns are more consistent - but mostly *easier* now. they were good in the hands of good players (watch shini) before too. i do own like 5 different armas shotguns and they just feel like easymode now. i've never complained about the old state. it makes smgs way less viable. do we buff smgs now? lmao. my point is, jg is super strong right now and performs too well outside of its intended range. it should be strong in cqc, yes. right now you can 3 shot people up until 15m by just shooting in their general direction. (exaggerated.) the hvr on the other side is way much more balanced now. this just shows that people are never happy. they will never be happy. "Driving up to someone is a part of the game why are you even playing if you complain about everything?" i don't. i responded to "It's almost if one couldn't shoot another without being at melee distance.". this just shows that people are never reading. they will never be reading. and just saying, perc+pig is also part of the game. does it make it any better? lootboxes are part of many games. does it make them any better? lmao. great argument. way to go. i do think driving up to people is completely fine. he just acts like you could always avoid being too close to an enemy by just shooting before. i do like the current patch. just don't act like it's perfect. funnily enough, the csg felt weaker to me in comparison to the jg now - but it feels a bit more balanced in cqc against smgs, while the jg seems waaaay easier. if they change the shotguns to be as viable as smgs (obv outperforming them in closer cqc tho) Edited August 10, 2018 by neophobia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SinnedOne 4 Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) People better help LO commimg up with solutions other than only repeating eachoter, saying that the patch sucks, this and that. This never ending cycle is rather annoying to read. I personally think most of the changes are good. Shotties and IR could be worked on obviously, but don't fear! They're well aware of the community's complaints and that this patch isn't the final result. I would like to see shotguns being viable again. Simply reverting the shotgun changes will keep te game old and boring. WE NEED CHANGE! Maybe lowering JG and CSG effective range, up the STRIFE range? The range is really the problem here. Let shotguns obliterate from close, like they should, and let smg's and STRIFE be some sort of in between shotty and AR gun.

Tobii 346 Posted August 10, 2018 38 minutes ago, G4B3 said: That's because @Tobii never complained. "Don't you dare!" was telling someone (in jest) not the talk about the Shredder so it can stay super strong beneath the radar despite narrow usage (and ownership). You assumed intentions that don't exist. You attacked motives that don't exist. That is the only misunderstanding. I don't blame him for not wanting to explain himself to you, either -given your immediate and unwarranted hostility. Well.. it was more because the shredder is my baby... And it was in need for a buff. I haven't had the time to check if it is in fact OP now.. But I hope it's up there with the rest really. Glad someone understood what I said.
