0 weapon balance as in this game is focused on bot catering...there are 3 guns that require pure skill to main in this game...anything else is either semi bot friendly or full on in the game purely for bots.
the shoot and youll hit something category is exactly as its described and yes someone skilled will outplay play the bot most of the time. the problem is that with 3 pro lvl guns and damn near every other gun being a bot gun...or noob friendly is that a team nowadays consists of to spit fire mains and some douche in the back just firing a spread shot sniper...whos * idea was that *. you literally have to be completely trash to miss more than a few shots with a bloody triple take.
and pls remember this is unfortunately a team only game...so i generally have 3 ppl fighting me at the same time...sounds like a balanced game right? 2 clowns just spamming 55 rnds out of a spitfire while d bag 3 is back there getting guarantee dmg with a triple take. meanwhile im sporting a scout with 10 rnds and it takes 7 to get 1 knock..guess what... bot number 2 is STILL spamming that bloody spitfire or devotion or havoc or pushed with a 3 inch reticle peacekeeper...guess what...the pk bot just had his cross hair 1/4 on my shoulder...if this was a scout its a miss...but because this game has 0 weapon balance and even less skill gap that 1/4 accurate shot just pegged me for another 40 dmg.
trash can guns...sure you can kill ppl with these guns...you can kill the bots who have no clue whats going on...but as soon as you run into that bot with the havoc/ devotion/ spitfire/ pk/eva your dead...and guess what your dead purely because respawn has balanced weapons ease of use to favor a lower skill requirement and also caters loot spawn to bots as well
if you wanna try telling me that casual players would enjoy this game if all guns required the same skill set as the longbow/scout/wingman youd be seriously tripping. can you imagine the player decrease respawn would have if every player dropped with purple shields and whatever 2 guns they wanted? i promise you they never wouldve reached 10m downloads cause new fps players would get clapped as soon as the touched dirt.
this is what i mean by 0 balance...the entire game is a spam fest of *. 4kd player drops gets a 2020 and no shield... the guy with 2 kills in 100 games drops next to him with purple shield and a pk...4 kd dies...did he get outplayed? no..his stats dropped because of some rng * and terrible balance between skill and spam
