Nerfing guns that sucked from the start

[HEATH72]

I would use pistols more if they increased their ammo pool in PVE.

Sawed offs nerf is highly needed, going into pvp and being one shot by cloaked peeps is just flat out annoying.

As for the spore guns, i saw this coming awhile back. My and my buddy blow through all the co-ops and open missions with just these. They will clear a room in a heart beat. The only thing they aren't good for are high health mobs like the dude with the packs on their back that you have to shoot up to expose them and boss fights. With spores if you figure out their high point of the bugs then you're a boss. Hit one guy up with spores, let 3 bugs spawn and they will usually kill him with 2 bugs leaving 1 then when he dies he spawns 3 more that seek out the nearest target with you've already spawned 3 bugs on by this point and on to the next. By the time you're onto the 4th guy you've got bugs galore just wipping the floor. This is even better in arkfalls, hit up a few skiterling and have 3 bugs spawn and switch over to the crystal for the week spot and man you've got sooo many bugs running around you will dominate a major arkfall doubling the 2nd best score easily.

This amused me. Thank you. I needed a laugh.

Not only are you incorrect about a few things, but I find it especially funny that the color coding of weapons by rarity (even using the the pretty common standard of white < Green < Blue < Purple < Orange) was apparently invented by Borderlands.

Are you really going to tell me that this game is not inspired by borderlands? They even use "Ain't no rest for the wicked" at the end of the game.

I don't care if Moses invented the weapon rarity, the only thing different about them are the synergy and mod slot's that are initially available. Major Arkfall's only give grenades and shield's no matter if you're first or last on the leaderboard. What in my post is wrong sir? If you pray to this game before you sleep at night I apologize if I offended your religion. But I'm glad I made you laugh Mr. Warkaiser.

We must not be playing the same game because I've gotten far more than just grenades and shields from Arkfalls and I don't know where you are but when I log in there are plenty of people on playing.

So our first big game patch will nerf most guns in the game........in PVE

Why don't the just hand us a plastic space blaster so we can shoot foam balls at the baddies.......

Are you going to elaborate on your wild statements or just spew random BS out your backside?

If you were capable of READING, no one would need to explain... Well I'm sure they still would.

So you're claiming the guns that are being nerfed in the patch notes aren't actually getting nerfed and they just put that in there to piss people off and get a rise out of them? or did you just feel like taking pot shots at someone?

Count yourself lucky, I've done at least 50 arkfalls since they added loot to them and I have never seen anything outside of a grenade or a shield. I am not the only one with this issue.

I think it's funny that you think that quote came from Borderlands. Clue - It didn't.

This is really ironic, because if you did actually read the patch notes, you see that there will be damage reductions to sawed-off shotguns, cluster launchers, the Northstar flare pistol, and infector bugs. That's it. So the wild assertion that 'nerf most guns in the game' is absolutely rediculous, and does indeed need to be questioned. Most in this thread are wildly assuming that 'adjustments' or 'changes' = nerf. They don't.

Also understand that just because YOU don't see the need, or don't understand why, doesn't mean the change wasn't needed. The developers see the need, so they are making the changes. If you expect them to detail the exact reason for each and every change that they make, you will be sorely disappointed. Welcome to the world of MMO's.

1. My response was to his hostility. If you don't like it, then ignore me.
2. You're assuming they don't.
3. Devs aren't always right. They're just as human as any one of us.
