Should the SMG get a nerf?

Well I been hearing a lo of people saying it should get nerf and I want to hear your reason why it should or should not

I use it in warzone a lot because I can just pull it out for easy mode. I’d say reduce its ludicrous amount of magnetism, it’s way too easy to track people with since the bullets practically come out of the gun in a cone lol.

I was thinking its fine since its only good in close quarters but none thing else. The range is pretty decent but barely more range.

It has a lower range to an assault rifle and a bit more than a shotgun. With this logic, it basically needs the dps to be higher. Like, you can’t exactly go long range or even mid-range with it

What you mean by dpf

It’s a good close quarters weapon. It’s meant to be deadly at that range. More so over an AR and BR. Just like how an AR is better at mid range and a BR long range.

It’s fine the way it is. We don’t need it to turn into the useless SMGs of Halo 2 where a BR is more efficient than it at close range. 343 has found a good balance for every one of the load out weapons.

dps = damage per second

I know right? I made this thread because people keep complaing the SMG is to OP even though its not.

Ok I don’t think it needs a higher DPS because it takes the same amount of bullets of the AR I heard.

It’s fine. In arena it is a map pick up which implies it has to be better than your spawning weapons to some degree, which it is. In Warzone it’s a higher req tier weapon. There is no need for nerf.

It’s fine as is. In fact it’s already been nerfed from it’s beta counterpart to a degree.

It has, can you explain it?

I think its range could be reduced a tad. I got killed by one earlier tonight literally from 30-40 feet away when I wasn’t paying attention to that person which is ridiculous.

whays nerf

Reduce power.

No, it’s fine as is.

It’s fine the way it is, if they nerfed it then no one would want to use it.

To those complaining, you don’t like the smg? go play halo mcc

It’s a borderlands thing. What it means is damage per second which gets used all the time for borderlands with rate of fire and damage per bullet.
If a gun had lots of damage in one shot but shot really slow, then the dps would still be high and vice versa

I always thought it was fine as is, because there’s not much range to it.

No. It’s a pick up weapon in arena and a high level req in warzone, meaning it’s a powerful weapon. It’s fine just as it is. If it ain’t broken, don’t fix it.
