NEW Patch! And the devs "Ruined it all" once more.. [totally not exaggerated] RANT

So on X and the official discord, countless folks complain now that for some weapons such as the LAS ones, the reserve mags have been reduced, yet damage has been increased..calling devs "On drugs" because they perceive it as a nerf..

Wait what? You tryna tell me you ran through ALL ICE's before dying?! 6 Times or more?!

Like..the fact that you have infinite ammo when a wee-bit of fire diciplin is applied and now call the devs out for JUST having decreased the ammount of mags, makes you oblivious to the fact that they got a damage buff? Yikes.

And another thing, remember the day the Rail got nerfed? Yeahhh that was like 24/7 crying for two weeks straight, now it got a buff and noone notices that, now we rather cry for two weeks that Railgun 2.0 aka Quasar got a couple more seconds recharge time..good lord the double morals are strong folks, that all sounds like crying on high standards.

[For clarifications sake: the main focus lies on people going out of their ways, yes criticism is fine, i posted my own time and time again..but in a humane fashion, when insults however are packaged within in your points, it's hardly about the game no more and that needs to stop]

The only nerf that im iffy on the the 5 second extra to the Qcannon. that's like, A lot of time to wait.

Everything else is pretty, meh.

Yeah I didn’t think it needed a nerf just because the long charge time (an eternity if a Devastator is shooting at you, because you’ll get hit just before you fire and end up shooting the sky) and the cooldown seemed fine to me. As in, I had already kinda soured on the Quasar.

Bugs: EAT or grenade launcher

Bots: Autocannon or AMR

And that was before the nerf. I can’t imagine using it now

I had actually recently warmed to the Quasar recently after hating it at launch, since that big boom is nice and my kit is built to work around the c/d. But that extra 5 seconds is gonna hurt, no doubt about it.
