    Ubisoft please be careful listening to everyone about Nerfs

    There is a trend going on for the last couple of years that in games like these, the developer team ends up destroying their own game trying to listen to all the opinions of the community. Take Destiny for example. That game was GREAT until the crybabies came and started calling everything overpowered because they got owned and started posting on the forums about it, constantly crying. Bungie made so many balancing updates trough out each Year, and started destroying their own gameplay by constantly nerfing. Later on they corrected some of it a little bit but for the most part everything was already broken and now Tuesday there is another patch coming out with changes to make certain things how they were in the beginning of the game.

    My point is that i already see SO MANY people posting about things that are overpowered while they don't even have a clue what overpowered really means. Just because you suck at a game, doesn't mean everything is overpowered and feel the need to start crying for Nerfs constantly, ruining the game for all others. Please Ubisoft don't make the mistakes Bungie made with Destiny. The majority of the community isn't always right. I understand there needs balancing done here and there but going overboard because the crybabies demand it is a huge mistake.

    1+ thank you. The amount of crying for nerfs on here is ridiculous imo.

    How about instead of name calling you put together a comprehensive argument?

    Many veteran moba and fighting game players know what they are talking about. The developers aren't stupid they can parse through what is bs and when there is a valid point. Yes, numbers who feel something is op shouldn't define what gets changed, like those silly polls, but when 100% of people agree Nobushi is overpowered, something is clear. Instead of yelling to the developers to not nerf things, go into the bs threads and shoot down their bad ideas. When noobs post "I play for one whole hour and I die to raider becuz he throw me of klif please nerdf" just shoot it down. However, take a look at my thread and tell me what you think. I've been binge playing with my friends since release and I know my stuff. http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php...0#post12285320

    Totally agree

    Yep totally agree with above, this game is so complex with different classes having advantages and disadvantages, and from what i've seen a skilled player can make great use of them all regardless of who they are fighting. I understand why many people would likely rush to saying some are OP but if you are skilled and focus on your strengths and the enemy's weakness you can still beat them. If any changes need to be made it should be done at a later date once more people have played and they have more feedback and opinions.

    Haha no, in the closed beta i played Raider and Peacekeeper but now in the Open beta i started playing with the Warlord and Warden.

    It's not me saying watch out for people crying about nerfs just because i don't want them to nerf a class i personally play. It's just a warning in general. The devs are smart people but it's so easy to give in to the amount of people wanting nerfs, thats why i took destiny as an example. When certain guns got nerfed, other guns felt too strong so these needed to get nerfed as well etc etc so you go down this cycle of constantly nerfing and slightly buffing and you eventually end up with gameplay that feels really underwhelming.

    The general consensus is that everything should be on par with the damage of the weaker classes, not that they should be brought up to Nobushi level. So yes, if the game is balanced this way, it will be brought down to a game where it doesn't take 2 or 3 hits to kill someone.

    Those who want nerfs have no skill. People crying about Samurais. I got my butt handed to me by a viking.
