Weapons balancing

tell me please that the weapons won’t have to be nerfed or tuned… Please and thank you. I remember Halo 4, it was a very on going thing that kept happening, first the storm rifle was way too Op and then it was the suppressor and next it was the pulse grenade, it was like any weapon I got serious kills with or any system I set up for getting kills kept on getting taken away from me because of weapons tuning and gear being nerfed. It’s one thing to have no skill, but it’s another thing to have no skill and therefore complain about weapons and gear! And by doing so you force other players with skill to steep down to that low skilled player.

Please no weapons Nerfing or Tuning! As a wise word I once heard “it’s not about the game or what the weapons or AI are like, it’s all about the player” so for Halo 5 please no weapons tuning

Reported!

Typical. It’s a not illegal to report someone. And that makes reporting someone a legal way to troll them.

Exactly. Anyhow I agree that it is the player not the game. It is the player that either makes it or breaks it. And weapons changing or tuning or Nerfing is like 343 catering to a small group of people. If you haven’t got the skill then you shouldn’t be complaining. At the same time people should be placed in lobby with people near their skill rank. (No one Nerfed the CE Magnum)

I had CSR 47 before weapons started getting nerfed, then because of all the Nerfing, my CSR level dropped to a 16. I completely wasted people in maps like Abandoned and Adrift. Maybe… Just maybe I could’ve held my ground against developers. And that’s a huge maybe cause they are all like CSR 50s.

Me me and my buddies knew how to move around and use maps. Yes “use them” and that is really what skill is, knowing how and when to use weapons and gear to out smart and out play your opponents.

How’d you do in the Beta? Mine lagged like crazy and at the time my internet connection was restricted… Somehow… What did you think of the maps and such?

They were pretty cool. My favourite would’ve been Truth. It’s way more open and tons more places to flank from. You really have to watch your back or at least have a solid squad to protect key points on the map. I loved the SMG returning but without dual wielding it’s kind of a bummer. Or can you dual wield? Lol it’s been a wile. Anyhow you can’t dual wield… And that was pretty much a big thing in the previous Halo games, now just trying to think of how cool it would’ve been to jet pack and mow down unsuspecting Spartans! Would’ve been the best, but they took out dual wielding and added Spartan Abilities. Kinda sucks we couldn’t have had both!

I think that at most we’ll get one tuning update. Halo 4 had so many because of custom loadouts and it was 343’s first attempt at making a new game. This time around not only do they have more experience but they also had the beta in January and warzone demos at E3. I doubt that they’ll need to change things up that much.

When people talk about weapons here, they usually say they want the SMG to be nerfed. I hope this doesn’t happen, it’s actually a useful weapon now. They say that it just melts people at close range, well isn’t that what it’s supposed to do? It still loses to other weapons, even the Assault Rifle, at range so IMO it doesn’t need a nerf.

Yes but I guess that people really don’t care what happens or how it affects their gameplay. It’s really a pointless discussion. I mean it’s not as big of a deal like split screen or mission difficulty. Lol, no one yoinking cares! Lol

I’m pretty sure the storm rifle got buffed over time, not nerfed.

It totally got nerfed! When I played rumble pit, I used to be able to lower a guys shields and kill him with ease! Then it got nerfed to the point that it only lowered a guys shields by 75% before it overheated! It was crazy Nerfed! And the EMP effect on the pulse grenades got taken out… Which for me isn’t quite as big of a deal. But still

Automatic weapons got accuracy & damage buffs. It’s in the patch notes.

People are complaining about balancing weapons now? I’m witnessing the new low in progress.

Na we are talking about people that complain about overpowered weapons. And it’s a discussion not a yoink fest. You ain’t seeing nothing!

If a weapons overpowered, it should be nerfed. What’s the problem again?

When people say that weapons are overpowered because of their lack of skill. I tell you! It isn’t the weapons, it’s the players! Lol.

Sigh

Look, there’s no way to say this without someone getting mad, but it’s really not my intention to offend you: you’re not as skilled as you seem to think you are. In fact, you probably only played as good as you did before the nerfs because you were using overpowered weapons.

“Stop ensuring that weapons are balanced, I relied on overpowered weaponry to play Halo 4”

-you, 2015
