Tricks claim during a live stream that it wouldn't be nerfed turned out to be a lie. They also removed the green reload roll because they said it was useless, that was also a lie.
EDIT: It wasn't an outfit so these were acceptable lies to most.

Find a new broken weapon, seriously.. or maybe even a non-broken one.
I don't think it was a lie, Trick really didn't seem to see anything wrong with it and left it as it was for a long time, despite being repeatedly shown that the weapon was stupidly overpowered.Quote:

Together with the growing amount of posts from Rashere on this forum, which looks like an awesome dev, i see a brighter future in Defiance. But this is off-topic.
So, on-topic.
Exactly this ^^Quote:

And once in possession a lot of players are willing to throw some money into it like DeMoNofDEATH did. And i assume he was not the only one buying Arkforge solely for upgrading and finishing a Zagger. It kinda suxx badly that you put a lot of time and effort into getting a certain gun and required mods, throw real money in to make it perfect only to see it nerfed into worthless pieces a little bit later.
Personally, i hate people destroying stuff i paid for. I was annoyed by this Zagger-nerf, but since i didnt pay anything besides scrip for it i also dont really care for this one in particular. What i do care about is that this was yet another thing that got destroyed after people paid for it.
A reminder on some other stuff...
- The game itself. Paid 60 euro's for it just to see them change the score-system, making DPS and kills redundant in a shooter, for financial reasons.
- Trashing coop-play between low and high EGO's, dividing whole clans just to sell boosts.
- DLC2- I think i paid for locks (and time to reasonably fill the room with enough players), i liked it that way and already paid for it.
- DLC5- Taking money from everyone, then deny low EGO's the possibilty to enter the expert-coops by themselves two weeks later. And with only 5k weapons in the vendors and the scaling system being implanted for everyone, expert coops were like the whole 5th DLC. Dont get me wrong on this one. Low EGO's have no business in expert-coops. But you cant sell it to them, take the money and then exclude them from the party.
The Zagger is just another thing on the list that could be made way longer. Charging money and then nerf the hell out of it is a bad business-model. In the end customers lose their faith in what they've acquired and simply wont buy the stuff they need to upgrade it. Example: I dont think DeMoNofDEATH will buy another $20 PSN-card to upgrade the next OP-gun, knowing that it'll eventually end up nerfed.
pretty sure your using the word broken wrong. op as intended is a better blanket statmentQuote:

Yet fixing them was clearly the right thing to do, because they were too powerful for the good of the game.Quote:

Oh my god people. Once again, a useless thread has been made because the OP can't take the time to research their question. It's not that hard people. There is a search bar, use it.
And now we get to Rez the QQ'ers of the zaggers. And before anyone starts going off for me saying this, just know in advance that I spent 3000 arkforge on a zagger, 500 to oj it, 2500 to get the reload mastery. And I was pissed off that they changed it. Believe me, I messaged a ton of Devs and made a huge deal about it.
But when you actually sit down, use logic, and have your emotions away from the game, you realize the weapon was stupid to begin with. It was a toy of a weapon. It did not out dps the best dos weapons, but it did out dps most. A 0 reload is broken on a weapon regardless of your opinion. It's a game, the dlc you bought does not revolve around the one weapon you got. Everyone complaining about oh I need a refund to make it fair, you didn't buy the dlc to get a zagger. When you signed the terms and agreements, you agreed to them changing things, therefore your argument is already invalid. It's not like it was something that shouldnt of happened, it needed to happen. So many weapons become obsolete over a period of time, the zagger was going to. It now has a oj mag roll, use overcharge and guess what? You can shoot 4 shoots without reloading. There ya go.
This.Also, the Zagger is still viable.Use this formula OP,if you don't believe me:Quote:
