Takes too many hits to kill enemies.

Is anyone else getting frustrated with how many hits it takes to take down troopers? Not the specialist class of course maybe too easy for them. But everything else just seems like a pain to kill. Especially when I play the as the heavy trooper. It happens all to often when I completely light a guy up and he is able to run/roll away while i'm hitting him and doesn't die or he ends up getting killed by someone else and my kill is robbed. 

I'm a fairly good player and rack up about 15-30 kills a game but this is just becoming more frustrating then fun for me. This also doesn't really provide a good causal experience  I think health in general from all trooper classes should be lowered  or damaged dealt by all/most weapons should be increased, these should only be minor adjustments though nothing drastic. It's not right when I clearly should have killed someone when I get that many hits on them yet they still have enough time to hide and in some cases kill me when they activate the vanguard ability for example.

  • I've seen Heavy players absolutely mow down groups of people, especially with that pink/red sentry ability that fires slowly?, so to me it looks like positioning is key, like it is with other classes. Otherwise I'd expect the rapid fire miniguns to do little damage per hit otherwise it's too op, plus you get shields so you can't have that and the ability to constantly kill quickly. 

    That's just my take, suck your not finding it fun at the moment, hopefully there's some stuff you can unlock to balance it out or something.

    For the mini gun that's a star card. My issue with the regular weapons not doing enough damage.

    I have found that the issue isn't really with the health but more with how unbalanced the weapons are. A lot of them just suck. The CR-2 is the clear favorite for the assault class but I don't find it OP it seems to be just right. It's just the only good weapon to use for assault.

    Same issue with the heavy class I finally unlocked the TL-50 and it is clearly the best weapon for the heavy. I have been using the DC-15LE which is decent but only advantage in adds from the default weapons is slightly higher fire rate and in has attachments. Other then that it feels like that weapon needs a slight buff in damage. I don't use the FWMB-10k even though it does more damage is because the spread and fire rate for it is just awful need to be standing right in front of someone to kill them quickly  

    Alot of the weaker weapons just simply need to be buffed in some way with either damage, fire rate and accuracy. Especially the default weapons they are just awful to use and can't really compete with the better weapons.

    I don't want to see anything get nerfed though. Alot of weapons I feel need to be buffed up. And I found the issue isn't with high health.

    Ah so you're looking at the weapons overall - I guess I don't really consider that cos as an Officer player I've unlocked all 4 and just go with the one that I find best - I don't consider the other 3 that good and didn't expect them to all be equally useful...am happy to use the same one on all maps.

    I think the time to kill is pretty much perfect.

    I think that certain primary weapons need some tweeks.

    The TL-50 for example is a useless disappointment.

    The assault 3rd and 4th weapons are pretty over powered.

    The 4th specialist weapon is pretty over powered on certain maps due to it's ability to demolish spaceships. 

    But overall I feel the pace of the game is great.

    @Ravudha originally I  thought it was the high health but now that I have unlocked much better weapons it just seems to be the weapons being unbalanced instead.

    @Peligrad the pace of the game is fine. For me alot of the weapons are just awful.

    I disagree with you on the TL-50 though because I mop the floor with it. Wish I could post a clip from my PS4 share on here how I wrecked players with it on Blast. The range on it is pretty bad though due to it's spread and the attachment to reduce spread doesn't affect or show much difference. 

    But again I don't think any of the weapons are OP I just find that the 1st and 2nd ones especially for the heavy and assault classes are actually very under powered. 

    I will be upset is they nerf the CR-2 and other weapons because they are the only weapons I enjoy using plus I had to grind kills to finally unlock them.
