Weapon nerfs in patch?

[armedpoop]

So I specifically waited for the PS3 patch.
It said they were nerfing the sawd offs and FRC LMGs?
But then it says in the patch notes that its just "general tuning to improve LMGs"
anybody know the specifics of the nerfs? I had a sawd off pre patch that had 1919 damage, and after patch it still says 1919. Im confused.

The LMGs were getting buffed, not nerfed.
And Trion never released actual numbers... so no one knows. :c

I haven't fully tested the shotguns yet, however the sawed off courier (which shoots two sticky grenades) is now slower on the reload. Rather than instantly reloading both grenades into the barrel at once, it now loads them one by one. Haven't tested Nano Fragger or LMG's yet.

Only other nerf I know about is apparently the Northstar pistol got significantly reduced damage.

yea i noticed that you can cancel the reload on the courier and fire one nade out. I totally spaced the northstar nerf. I need to go and look at the numbers. But if its the same with the sawed offs, there will be no difference. Why didnt they change the numbers on the info if they ACTUALLY changed the damage numbers?

Damage numbers on the courier haven't changed. Just the reloading. As for the Northstar I think the damage number did change. I don't use this pistol so I'm not positive. I'm basing that on another thread I read on this forum.

The shawed off that shoot multiple pellets got nerfed in damage but the two slug ones didnt
Northstar got big nerf
and i cant see any difference in my infectors even tho people said they got nerfed

The north star lost a lot of dam my sawn off is about 3/4 its original dam and infectors lost a third of theyre range. Itleast the ones I have lol

[BLunted]

It seems like the range on the canker got nurfed big time. Too bad, it was my favourite gun :-(

They got nerfed big time range wise. Immunizer & Afflictor had a 34 range before, they're now at 20.
