VHX-D3 is good & NOT OVERPOWERED
As the title suggested the VHX-D3 is good & NOT overpowered. It was already nerfed and i do find it balanced in the game at its current state. Please stop complaining about the weapon. If players jus...

@RanzigeRidder2 Yeah it still outperforms every other AR in the game right now post nerf. It was the same with the RM68. That thing got at least 2 nerfs to bring it in line with the other AR's. Just goes to show how OP they are when they're released.
Instead of nerfing the VHX-D3 more than they already did, I would suggest to increase the power of other guns. Nerfing guns to a point that makes them feel like toys instead of guns just ruins the gaming experience.
I don't know why this community never makes a big deal about the absurd headshot multipliers. Nerfing the VHX is not going to solve gunplay. Priorities.

Done that months ago. Got no traction. The gunplay in this game requires a complete overhaul. That includes H/S multipliers but it'll never happen.

Well then there's no point of nerfing anything. Gunplay has only significantly gotten worse over the last year I've been playing. DICE should never have wasted time adjusting any weapons, including any of the vault weapons, if they can't simply type a different number in the HS multiplier code. I'd rather have one decent gun (VHX) to be honest.
- @Agent10_Alex This I agree is the issue with the VHX, it's not OP because of the raw stats, it's OP because it shares the 2.15x HSM that made the RM68, SFAR, and any AR meta in the first place, and then being a better sidegrade from AM40 is what confuses people in why it is OP.

Yep the RM68 was and is still technically a far better gun than the VHX, but the RM has spread and recoil now. The VHX has neither. The spread changes to the other weapons are mostly what makes this gun feel OP.Giving it only the red lazer is going to give it a major hipfire buff. Considering most people usually go with blue.

Increasing the power of all the other guns is a colossal task compared to bringing one weapon in line with the rest of the AR's. That will surely create more unnecessary balancing issues. Also don't forget, by buffing all other weapons you're making TTK even shorter than it already is across the board and a shortened TTK is also watering down any spread changes the devs introduced in previous patches. Less bullets to kill = less spread.
With the netcode and desync issues this game has along with 45hz servers, shortening TTK is not going to be an enjoyable experience.
- @I_DYN4MO_I This also Creates powercreep that DICE will have a extremely hard time to balance in the future, especially when new guns are introduced, older guns are gonna be weak in comparison to new options.
@CedarOfLebanon@CedarOfLebanonI would argue the other way, buffing everything just makes randomly dying worse and worse and it's already really bad in this game
Balancing weapons would require both buffs and nerfs obviously, that's why it's called balancing.....
M5A3 is close to being ok for it's intended use it's accuracy on range is a bit too high, run around with this weapon for a little while and doing 50-100m quick kills on stationary target is disgusting
And how Battlefield has mostly done it is take one prime starter AR make it all round very good and model everything after that, the VHX being better in every single way just shows Dice has lost the plot entirely
- @doubleome Every time my VXD has run into an Avancys player, the Avancys has won. I guess everyone thinks the other guys weapon is better.
