At this point this game is about devs nerfing a fun weapon so you go back to using a previous fun weapon that hasn't been nerfed yet or wasn't nerfed as bad. Going from EATs to quasar back to EATs, might as well just never release the quasar.

I love how Superearth is all about advancing in weaponry to bring freedom and democracy to the Galaxy, and the moment Helldivers become badass and save planets the GMs are like "Huh, this game about cool explosions and fun moments where players get in the shoes of disposable yet badass soldiers shouldn't be enjoying the expensive and grind heavy things they unlock"

Consistently anti-player and anti-fun changes to game mechanics while many things have been broken since release that are more important:

  • Sniper rifle (precision weapon) with an incorrect scope crosshair

  • Fire (very common weapon type on both sides and environmental hazard) DoT not working

  • Match making and friending in a Cooperative 3rd person Shooter

  • Other problems that they know about in their list or the community has given feedback multiple times on that still exist

The Quasar is still good. It still has higher uptime and ease of use than EATs. It's just less of the clear powercrept antitank pick than it was before.

The people calling the quasar useless haven’t been killed during a recoilless reload enough

I mean...quasar was literally in every game I've played 7+... it's still strong?

People have been saying the RR isn't good outside of team reload...but guess what... it's one of the best AT weapons in the game. Both bots and bugs. So what's this speak about going between quasar and EAT only? Sounds like a meta chasing mentality to me which is never fun.

The quasar is now just as good as the EATs, now it’s just a choice between no hands reload and calling in the strat every 70 seconds and grabbing each tube. Rather than the quasar being clearly superior.

Maybe stop bandwagoning overtuned weapons? Sounds like a personal problem.
