So if your good with your character or just a smart player do you really need damage drop off? Sounds like people are just mad because hey are not playing a character well! Or are getting slammed by the enemy constantly. If I’m wrong please explain.
@OB1-The-Only-One the idea of damage dropoff is to force some characters to close to range and most shooters have this; characters that don't have damage dropoff in MP shooters tend to be rare and designed for being able to do full damage at any range as one of their distinct advantages. Right now in BfN, most PvP fights occur at the longest ranges as there is no reason to close the distance unless you're having issues hitting distant targets as you can do full damage as anyone at any range, with a couple special exceptions (NIghtcap and Super Brainz).
@OB1-The-Only-One@OB1-The-Only-OneI don't really agree with the problems in the OP, but drop-off is needed because of characters like Soldier and Electric Slide, who can essentially snipe, while also being very agile.This isn't really a problem, but it is with these chars because of their high damage output. "just position yourself better" or "just sprint or use movement abilities" isn't really something you can say for them.
@Fork_x_Spoon Pardon my language, don't need to be crass, with your Sap Trap we can go kick some Grass.
(I watched the trailer to get the lyrics right and got really sad at the "Now we're running through the trees and crushing enemies and no one ever leaves" part. The announcement has even ruined the trailer I love so much for me. Seriously, I housed to listen to it multiple times a day.)
