SyllyBear 20 Posted December 9, 2018 I used it today and I still think that the nerf was completly awful. Ive been playing with nhvr today after so long, and as allways trying to land a bullet at cqc is fairly hard, but getting 28 assist is completly ridiculous. Plus I heard that after the clown nerf it got another nerfs... i dont even want to check it. You reverted most changes for being absolute trash and making quit a huge amount of players... is there any plan to revert nhvr to its glory? If not, can i get snipers from my characters changed to other weapon if i send a support ticket and i wait half year? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vsb 6171 Posted December 9, 2018 (edited) the hvr is still an 850 damage cannon from 0-90m (and it’s still a 2shot out to 100m) you just have to play slightly different with it now - no more hopping around like a coked up ogre user for ez cqc kills the more i think about the actual mechanics of the nerf the less i like them, but overall i feel it was a decent change Edited December 9, 2018 by BXNNXD typo 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

owzzy 181 Posted December 9, 2018 Pro-tip: Your secondary weapon can often be used as an effective alternative to a sniper when faced with close quarters combat (cqc) situations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lol this. Quick switching was a crutch, its mostly gone now so it is a good job, I enjoy sniper now its not too op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lign 361 Posted December 9, 2018 So, you're basically complaining that you can't kill with heavy rifle in cqc how it should be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InkieTheSauzeGod 48 Posted December 9, 2018 Hvr is good now. its intended for long range, as it should be. If you want a good cqc sniper tho, i recommend you switch to scout Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WitchQueen 316 Posted December 9, 2018 Someone remind me of the actual nerf? Since I only use it as an acrual sniper I don't even know what happened lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NotZombieBiscuit 3146 Posted December 9, 2018 The HVR is still strong as fuck. The nerf did nothing to deter its ridiculousness in the current meta. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, sniper rifles are supposed to be used at long range, you have your secondary for cqc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ironic, because from my years of playing apb since i was a filthy bronze to now, i never felt nhvr being op in any way and never, ever complained about it. But you decided to crap it, crying that is op and if it was paid, p2w for sure. There is the good people with it that probably will make you suffer, and there is the bad that will suck so bad with it that they are a walking nhvr frag. But from all these players, you have plenty of tools to take them down easily. I don't see them nerfed... You honestly are the ones that need to fucking learn to play and stop changing the game to be boring and crap, making people leave because apb is becoming a nerf trash pit.

If I'm being honest, the HVR is still powerful enough to warrant another nerf. Just because you have the intelligence of a bag of hot doorknobs doesn't mean the game should change to cater to you. There's a lot of things wrong with this game that have caused people to leave. Nerfs to weapons that needed them is not one of those things. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are the one with lack of inteligence if you dont know how to properly counter a nhvr, which i never had major problems against it. They added plenty of tools to counter it, use them. That you are bad countering weapons is not the game fault, but yours. Edited December 9, 2018 by SyllyBear Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You get in your 4x4 Vegas, drive right up to them, perc the ground and shoot them with your HVR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please you pro balance player, keep naming all of the ways you can counter a nhvr (a pre nerf nhvr). Lets teach the nerfing crowd to counter weapons.

I already stated that there were a lot of things wrong with this game that caused people to leave, but you prove your lack of intelligence for the 37th time today by completely misunderstanding everything that has ever been said on these forums since its creation.
