BW's balance team understands balance like my dog understands nuclear fusion.
They're driving me back to Skyrim. I don't mind reasonable adjustments to weapons, but they've already chunked three of nine released DLC weapons (the Kishok, Krysae, and Typhoon), crushing their effective DPS by upwards of 30-40%.Atheosis wrote...

Yep. Their complete lack of experience with multiplayer game balancing really shows a lot of the time, and while I'm a huge fan of the idea of trying to achieve a reasonable level of balance for the sake of game longevity, the way they've gone about it has been spotty at best. Oddly the last few weeks have been some of their worst, even though conventional wisdom would suggest that five months of experience should have made them better at it.
Yes. This. EXACTLY this. I never used to have a problem with balance changes. I actually looked forward to Tuesdays. It's only lately that it's fubar.
Indeed. Most weeks were mostly much needed buffs. Often those buffs were underwhelming, but at least they were a step in the right direction. And most of the time when they nerfed something it was modest and more or less understandable (the Falcon nerf excluded). For some reason of late they've shifted their approach to more and bigger (a.k.a. excessive) nerfs with even fewer buffs to compensate. It's not encouraging at all.

Doesn't it say something about the power level of the weapon that people get so up in arms about the possibility of a nerf? Let's say, for eg, that Bioware decided to nerf the incisor, or heck, even the mattock. People would obviously raise an eyebrow and wonder what the heck's going on, but would they be raising a storm over it? Doubtful... That people care so much about a single gun shows, imo, that it's obviously a touch too strong. If anyone hadn't noticed, it's basically the one + gun right now. Ease it back a bit, and we can get a bit more variety. Granted, I don't play platinum(not terribly fun, but that's an enemy variety issue, not a nerf/buff issue).
Maybe it gets nerfed into the ground. Maybe it gets put back to where it started, which was still pretty darn good. That people are furious over what we don't even know is astounding.
dude shh, you're giving them ideas... i'm calling it, 2 months from now everything does no damage at all and the only way you can complete the wave is by pre ordering dragon age 3.AppealToReason wrote...
Why can we have awesome crazy powerful abilities but not awesome crazy powerful guns?

We're not supposed to be the beta test group after we paid $60 for the game, and certainly not after a lot of people have paid money for packs.
