This will be short and to the point. The NTW-50 sniper is way too powerful against tanks and it just feels super cheap to die against a sniper across the map. Theres so many ways to destroy armor and the last thing we should be worrying about in a tank is a sniper camped out in a bush 500 yards away. Please reduce the damage the NTW-50 does against tanks
smdh... and this isnt cod?
And we have a 30 cal LMG with AP rounds that takes 250(you spawn with a total of 200) rounds to destroy a jeep. DICE needs to hire somebody who knows how to balance *.
They just need to stop.
@cng82Having tried the thing myself, I am not sure that it will be used as often as you fear. It is too cumbersome with its slow animations and the sacrifice of a more versatile weapon, unlike the M5 spam.
In any case the type of tanker who stays way back and farms people while turret-glitching behind some cover, needed some pain imho
It did felt good though to outsnipe with a headshot with that slow velocity a regular sniper who was on top of a tower though
It's still at the level of a water gun, but you're nerfing it?
Are you sane?
Buff bullet speed and bullet drop
Don't forget this is a 'high power' sniper rifle
Wait they are nerfing it? Why the gun has a long reload and extrem bullet drop and super slow rounds… and still not a 1 hitter over 200m
The damage against vehicles is reduced, currently the makes more damage than the M5. The DPS are 5x as high as from the M5.
The damage against infantry is not changed.
DICE TeamHey @Outkast1877 @RNM4010028 @BlurKiller we got an upcoming update where we are Reduced effectiveness NTW-50.

Update here.

You guys talking about the normal Anti Material rounds or the high power ones? Cause the normal one's do poor damage took me 6 or 7 bullets to destroy a hovercraft
@EA_AticI don't think it should be nerfed just my opinion, you gotta switch to the AP rounds to do decent damage to a tank w it in general and it is meant as a demolition anti material , damage in the game actually seems good, its other things that need balancing and adjusting, plus at long range the .50 is totally off and has no viable calibrated scope or even different reticules for range finding, but that's my experience on PS5 as well, also it is has the slowest fire rate of all of primary and secondary weapons.
why not give a go at buffing the recoilless , first with the reload speed
I think they should consider level the playing field of weapons in general get rid of spread / bloom whatever people want to say and just balance weapons in the more traditional way, there is too much going on w 120 players to not let it be where you aim and shoot is where it is going,
but that's just my opinion
thanks
take care
