1 ReplyThey don't "balance" anything. The seesaw the damage tables to create more play times. Remember when ARs got nerfed because "we used them a lot"? That's all we needed to see if we want to know their strategy. They make 1 or 2 weapon classes unusable and we let the sit without touching them. Balance time! Now dust off those (insert whatever class just got buffed) and grind out a few more hours trying to level everything up and trying to get that 1 weapon that's OP in that class. Time for a "new" batch of weapons that make the old ones obsolete! Everyone automatically goes for the weapon class that's been dominant for a month or 2 and ignore the underwhelming classes. Guess what? "Balance" time again! And rinse and repeat. Not a [i]bad[/i] strategy on paper, but that's why so many of us hate PvP. It's not about the players skill as much as it is "who's better at using the current dominant weapon and lag to their advantage?"
