I seriously don't get it why BW is pushing people AWAY from the small MP community that's left. With Borderlands 2 out in US (here in EU in 2 days) and a lot of other great games to play, there isn't really a reason to play this anymore with all the nerfs, nerfs, nerfs.

I've posted a preview of the changes we're thinking about here.

The Locust was already hinging on becoming a usable weapon. This buff just might push it over the edge.  The magazine size increase will likely make more of a difference than the damage buff.


...Since when was the Locust a -bad- SMG?  It was my SMG of choice.

I get the feeling people are only taking the highest difficulties into account when complaining about nerfs.

That's the whole point of having useful weapons. More credits = more stuff. Do people think that they enjoy using the weapons they have? Probably because they can't get enough credits to get good packs. The guns that are effective on gold are slowly dwindling.

This could not have been said any better!

I'm happy with the Viper buff, I gave it a shot (pun intended) yesterday.When playing Infiltrator I usually equip my Valiant VI, and it seems the Viper X measures up quite well. Only slightly less damage, double the clip size, and it's much lighter, so you can cloak more often.

To me, this is an example of a good buff: it encourages the players to vary their choice of weapons.

Buffs to make characters and weapons better is always a good thing! Adding the argus rifle is nice and I can't wait for the others, especially the *Anti Synthetic Rifle* or as I call it: The spit of Zeus! Right now I'm addicted to my Particle Rifle X...I just wish it had a longer range...

It's funny watching Bioware killing the MP more and more every week esp now with BL2 out. Out of the 40 or so people I friended on PS3 only about 3 actually play ME anymore. And they're still nerfing **** when will it stop?

Finally, the M-55 Argus comes to multiplayer. And a Rare, no less. Now all we need are the N7 Valkyrie and AT-12 Raider...

For obvious reasons I hope they put the N7 Valkyrie in the Promotional catagory

The carnifex and Piranha is balanced enough, IMO. Compare the Carnifex with the Paladin and you'll find the gun is standing in a very balanced position among the pistols.
The piranha has nothing to be nerfed, in means of stunning the GPS is stonger, in means of instance killing the Reagar Carbine is way stronger, if you still insist to nerf it please nerf its weight but not the damage output.

just increase the weight of the Piranha, leave the clip size and damage as is.

make the piranha as heavy as the crusader - balance problems solved.

viper would be good, if it didnt recoil so much - i dont know how its possible, but it recoils (for me at least) more than my black widow ... kinda sad.
But frankly, until you fix firebase rios crashing ... i couldnt give a crap about "balance" changes ... im sick of seeing that sudden black screen followed by "Mass Effect 3 as stopped working"

Except that Bioware's job isn't to balance around difficulty, it's to balance weapons around each other.  Weapons even like the Predator are useful on Gold if you know what you're doing or using the right class.
