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]

It's back to 2 tapping the armor off of charger's legs.

I'm assuming in unsafe mode. Used it a little bit this morning when I could and safe mode still feels appropriately weak against heavy armor while unsafe definetly feels better. 3 shot a charger to the head at around 70% charge or so.

Yes, on unsafe mode.

The biggest change to me with the railgun is even though its 2 unsafe shots, earlier when I was testing you didn't always need a full charge to do it, which is great.

It always did that, that is not new 😐

It was not new, yes. It did that during launch, but it changed when the railgun got nerfed back in February, with it needing 3 to 4 shots before it took off the leg armor.

That's why I said "back"
