News flash: I didn't have Fox's Prayer or Contractor Gloves on my M1A build. Still lost the damage. Still back to sponges.Originally Posted by Deathlyhearts Go to original post
What makes you think all was using LMG and M1 ?.. contractors gloves and fox was good for other builds , and now they are useless ?. This devs teams have no clue , do they even try to play the game ?..Originally Posted by Deathlyhearts Go to original post
this wasnt a nerf , this was a destruction , nerfs are done by devs that have a clue about what they are doing , this dev team is a total disaster.
they seem too keen in keeping the ilusion this game has anything to do with any kind of PVP competitive gameplay when in fact its shouldnt even exist , still its what rules all this nerfs and buffs that make no sense to the the 99% playerbase that does not care about the PVP side of the game.
then your build was not complete and you are not qualified to speak on how the M1A was overpowered for people that had both of these items. That is why you don't understand the nerf. We were 3 or 4 shotting missions end boss on heroic with some crit and the boomerang talent.Originally Posted by LubzinNJ Go to original post
It's not about that, we all know you have a l33t build and couldn't care less about the M1A "meta". I'm happy for you.Originally Posted by Deathlyhearts Go to original post
It's about the cowardly way that it has been implemented. Not putting the nerf in the patch notes was a **** move. Even you have to admit this wasn't a decent thing to do. Why wasting time on weekly SOTG streams and publishing extensive patch notes when you're not even announcing the biggest nerf of the patch in them.
I would try to debate over this, but I see you conveniently and very much entirely missed the point I was making. Yes, the nerf was hard, but M1A was never the ONLY viable option for DPS builds. It was the most efficient. Now it's merely bought more in line with the rest of the weapons in the game. It was always META, because of how it out performed everything else in combination with this two gear pieces. But it was never the ONLY option in the game, just like META is never the only option in any game that have it.Originally Posted by LubzinNJ Go to original post
I agree with that and please spare me the sarcastic comments the next time. I do find it a weird decision myself and I have no idea why they didn't include that in the patch notes. However the topic had steered away from this and people were saying how useless the m1a is now, which is not true and how sponginess enemies will be now after that nerf, which again is something I disagree with.Originally Posted by Smintjes.TSF Go to original post
