Re: SVK? Why nerf it?...

@Eventhius85 Well deserved it was an unworthy easymode weapon cspable of out dps AR , smgs , Snipers at any range .. Its very design was broken if they adjusted it . Its a good thing

  • @Stew360 "Snipers at any range", maybe because there is a range where DMRs should win in that conflict or have dominance in general shared with a decently positioned LMG bi-pod (which would come with risks as in previous iterations)?

    A sniper is a 1 shot kill to the head = more dps (or the .50 which is a 1 shot to the body at some ranges)...

    It does not get close to the dps of SMGs or the ARs (especially not close in spray and pray) and now their spread has been reduced it does not compete in the mid to long range.

    What this knee J E R K nerf has done is created a massive deadspot in the game and made it harder to close distance in general, especially due to the fact that snipers have no flinch or supression, which means they can take more time to line up shots at that range.

    This change ruins the balance of the game because the DM7 does not work in mid-long range either.

    Also, if the SVK was so easy mode, why isn't the most used gun, or the "Meta"?

    It was only good before because it was viable, now the meta is between the any SMG, the AK, PKP, and the DXR.

    we are only 4weeks in so the balancing has just begun, there where always guns those outplayed others. I’m sure we will get mor patches which will address balancing issues

    The SVK is still power full you only need adjust your gameplay a little bit.

    The Visuals to up left are the thing that I ned to get used to it and not the small delay between the shots^^

    And till now I don't have played much any AR or SMG (only to test how it handles), I'm playing one shot guns since the first day^^

    It's a kind of my own Challenge here^^

    See you on the Battlefield

    @emerson1975 It is the headless chicken player running around the map hopping / sliding everywhere taking too much caffiene and getting mad with everyone who plays the game like a tactical shooter rather than just run and gun. Hey my SMG / AR didn't beat you at every range, your gun is OP...

    The nerf was maybe needed but classic DICE made from OP gun completely useless gun, the kick it does after each shot completely negates faster firing on any range. Close combat 15 ammo magazines made for 3 shot kill close/medium range cant be used at all since gun kicks like a crazy after firts bulet. As always nobody tested the changes AT ALL.
