  1. Personally I think the Mantis is OK as it is. They're easy enough to take down solo if you plasma charge them and it's not like there's not enough heavy weapons to take them down. In the right hands they're deadly but then so are all the other vehicles.
  2. Unfortunately it's a side effect of online video games becoming popular. The day the Xbox 360 came out the average IQ of people online took a massive nosedive. It's no different in any other online game, just look at COD/Battlefield. For some reason all the kids wanna be a sniper like there's something really awesome about hiding in a bush miles from the fight. Personally I think you should have to pass some sort of exam before you're allowed on the Internet but since it's not gonna happen I tend to mainly play with friends. I'd advise you to do the same.
  3. Not you personally. It was more in response to the complaining about weapon balance that seems to be so commonplace now. I actually agree with the sentiment of your post. Like you said, if people think Weapon X is overpowered, why aren't they using it?
  4. Literally every forum for every current gen FPS game has people moaning about weapon balance and crying about things being overpowered. Please tell me more about your experience in developing AAA multiplayer video games and how you tackled the issue of weapon balance. Oh, wait, you're not a video game developer, you're just a sore loser who thinks the world owes them a living. The weapon balance is fine. I've not used some of the weapons so I'm not qualified to discuss them in detail but the way I see it, they all do the intended job. Yes the DMR is powerful at long range, but it's supposed to be. Up close there are much better weapons. If you're playing on the big open maps, expect people to be using it and adapt accordingly. Stop sprinting everywhere, look at your radar, get behind cover, use your headset to co-ordinate with your team, choose the correct loadout for the situation and gametype. More importantly, accept that fact that it's not your God-given right to win every battle and every match. Yes it's competitive game, but moaning about weapon balance instead of asking how you can improve does nothing to help you win. Or let's say I'm wrong and the DMR is overpowered. Then what? Nerf the DMR. Great, now the BR is overpowered. Nerf the BR. Now the AR is overpowered. Better nerf that too. So instead of using the money you paid for your copy of the game to pay their staff to put up new gametypes/maps/custom games settings/armour/specialisations/etc. 343 spend their time and money fixing weapon balance issues. So you start complaining that the maps are old, or that you want more armour. It never ends. In short, stop complaining, either adapt or don't play. It's not like you don't have a DMR of your own. (Not a personal attack on anyone in particular)
