perhaps work on how you approach enemies and try to shoot first?

Some guns work fine but most of the guns are just meh. Personally I find that using the right guns (Scar, M16, Avencys, M5A3 etc) makes a big difference.

Too many of the weapons are just not good at any distance compared to other weapons. The LMGs (LCMG, PKP) are mostly not worth it because they are outgunned by SMGs (and ARs) at close distances and they are outclassed by ARs at longer distances. SMGs are very situational (as they have always been), but in 2042 the maps are even bigger than ever and they are mostly useless compared to ARs. The DMRs are just in general bland (except for the BSV-M).

Gun balance have always been a problem for Dice and they have struggled with this in the previous titles as well. For me the best part of 2042 is the free weapon choice, at least you are not forced to using specific types of guns, that "suck" on many of the maps (like medics with SMGs in BFV).

Theres too many underpowered weapons in this game as it is ... compound that with the persistant server lag and some nights the games almost unplayable.

yeah, I have that written in other threads before DICE needs to learn to balance again.

The only thing they do is most of the time very extreme and ends in nerfing things instead of trying to equal the weapons out.

At the moment many are complaining that there is not enough content (especially weapons) in the game but in the end the same players are only using a few because these weapons are meta.

And the problem is getting wors in future when DICE is tinkering with the specialist and putting them into a pseudo class system with weapon proficiencies.

I personally play most of the time the weapon I like not the weapon it is meta and lets hope DICE will find a way.

They need to buff a lot of weapons
