Honestly it's hard to think that ANYONE would believe the statement like 'The damage buff for low rank players was unintentional, caused by a bug and was fixed by a backend patch'. 😉
DICE? Bug?
I believe it.
Considering the date of the OP, is this something related to April 1st stuff?
@UP_Hawxxeye
That was me -- and no, definitely not related to this specific date. 😉
Just had it happen again, level 10 should have been dead but no just keeps on shooting me. Is there any way i can pull my tickrate graph from a previous game? this will prove that this level ten took way more damage than any normal player. I purposely went after this player so it happened 3 times.
I believe in you guys. , Put yourself in the new player's shoes. Buy the game up to 2 years after launch (obviously there are many high skilled players on the server with you ) and you always get ya * handed to you on a plate, 9 people out of 10 will prob uninstall and move on very quickly. *Therefore potentially losing a paying customer skin packs etc. *So the reason in my eyes is to give the new guy a little boost for a little while then he may enjoy and be willing to part with his cash for skins etc.
Yes I know this hasn't been proven and has gone very quiet of recent but I too still have the same issues with low level players
My post is not to point fingers or accuse anyone of the above but this is MY VIEW & IS PURE SPECULATION on this matter
*Speculation only (my view on the subject)
I'm going to close this one since it's been a year from it last being active.
Been seeing it alot lately in July 2025... EA is doing something so the new players do not get discouraged, but they did not earn it like we had to. EA wants to keep the platform alive and to keep selling the game. I see it all the time GETTING waxed by a level 7 4 times in a row all the while shot a full mag into him,,,,, And I die.
