As long as the Piranha nerf isn't ridiculous... Let's wait and see.

But those balance changes better come with a HUGE locust buff in the process, since there are still some weapons that really need some change.

it'll be like 10% won't be a big deal


That is a huge f***ing deal

Saying that it was very good before they buffed the damage by 10%, it shouldn't be much.

Wait a second, ... that doesn't make sense. First you buffed the weapon damage after you released it and now you are going to nerf it again?

Do you have any idea what you are doing? Because evidently, you didn't at one point or the other.

 
I'm wondering too... why the sudden change of mind? :?
Strange, to say the least.

Oh well, I knew the Pirahna would be next on the chopping block. <_<

The difference between single-player and MP weapons is even more highlighted after playing with the new DLC weapons today. Apparently, Shepard is radically overpowered. :blink:

No its not. They biffed it 10% 3 weeks ago, and quite frankly it was unneeded. U can use any level 1 consumable to make up the difference.

Can we leave the pirahna Pirahna alone now, please? It's become a lightning rod for topics, and it's getting annoying. REALLY Annoying.

So much whining. At least wait until the nerf is released before ****ing so much people. The Piranha is obviously too powerful for its weight right now. I mean it blows the GPS out of the water and the GPS used to be the gun everyone called overpowered.

I'm looking forward to the Official Explanation Thread where they tell us how extensively they tested it before release, then made a well informed decision to buff it almost immediately, and then a second well informed decision to nerf it into the ground two weeks later.

why do i feel like he didnt release the actual numbers so he could test the community for their reaction to the Piranha nerf? hopefully he reads this forum and sees all the people not liking it


Doesn't matter what the community as a whole thinks one way or the other. The bottom line is they watch the microtransactions and see what is trending toward people succeeding in matches. Whatever combination is cutting into the profits gets cut in output. Go back to the first balance changes and you'll be able to see this quite clearly.

Regardless of this weeks changes there will always be another combination that performs well and will only be a matter of time before the players find out what it is. Arms races - natural evolution at its finest.

seriously the Piranha

so every other **** weapon is ignored and the good ones are ruined.

the time to move on to a new MP.........



 Close the door, and thank you for playing..


pretty much. Platinum players are limited to Great Weapons. And the The Two Great Weapons are nef'd. And yes, it's a huge deal.

Check out videos from Spectre or Zhh3k - youtu.be/NCpTKf1DImw

Zhh3k gives good reasons why they need to focus on other weapons instead of Great Platnium weapons

Rolling it back makes sense.  Why it happened in the first place is a mystery however.

you assume that they work.  By looking at that, the nerfed Typhoon should destroy anything compared to the Revenant, and it does not.  Should be 50% better against barriers, shields and armor.

People always claim Bioware doesn't listen to nerfducks, but they do. That Protoman guy whined about the Piranha, and now it's going to be utterly destroyed just like the Krysae was last week. 50% weight increase, 50% damage decrease, ROF deceased by 50%, three shots per clip.

Good thing I rarely use it, I guess?

Buff Piranha day 1 to make people happy over new DLC

Nerf it 2 weeks later because people were happy over new DLC

Okay. What next? Hurricane? I think we should nerf it. Harrier? Definitely nerf that one. Claymore is OWEPOWDERED for sure.

Meaningful buffs for forgotten weapons can wait. Forever.

Even more than that, a 10% damage buff is a major one. That's more "something's really lacking with the performance" rather than "we'll do a bit finetuning". And now all of a sudden their previous thinking is no longer viable so it demands to negate the previous balance changes?

Does not compute.

In fact, that sounds like they are roll-dicing the balance changes instead of playtesting them.

then why nerf it? if there's really no substantial reason?

look at this video, it's very good reason why they need to focus on other weapons - youtu.be/NCpTKf1DImw

[*]They can nerf the hell out of things, and yet still won't fix the vanguard glitch. That I think speaks for itself.:pinched:
