Insane nerf to prox grenade with no mention of reasoning for the nerf?
- 4 years ago@NoonsYo - Reason: nerfing the experience gain to sell weapon and gadget bundles in the future.

@NoonsYo @Or maybe because they completely invalidated both suppressors and spotting specialists? Or because they made it completely impossible to flank, especially in rush? Or because literally everyone was using them and throwing them in the same place instead of encouraging variety?
Reddit moment.
- 4 years ago@yanmuheng A bit late and not expecting a reply but, could you elaborate further on that one? Like why would they need to reduce xp gain for that?
- 4 years ago@NoonsYo How about its op af, has no downsides, completely ruins stealth / flanking

nah i think its because they want to slow XP gain as much as possible (to probably sell xp boosts like a wanna be COD), but i like your thinking that the devs actually care about infrantry play style! got a nice lol from this.

because every one complained they are op which they are. And no way to flank. That’s the reason. You can look it up on twitter. Developer responded to a tweet of a complain of it being OP

They are been nerfed as people having been using them to level up. If you have been playing breakthrough youll see 10 proxy sensors on 1 obj its like having infinite UAV makes no sense to not nerf them.

I agree what's going on had 2 proxy sensors now only have one wich only lasts 7 seconds after throwing what can it do in that time nothing why mend something if its not broken another usless throwable while I'm here what have they done to the maps cannon fodder springs to mind 😡

It was a disadvantage for cheaters they got this from the cheat site forms they were complaining about it and wanted a hack for it so you can't see cheaters when used so they did a compromise I am not joking or making * up go read these forms from the cheat sites even if you don't cheat it is a place to see what is really going on and what to expect from cheats so you can pick them out.
