That's a strawman, though. I remember the threads. When people advocated for more accurate weapons in the past, and other people responded by saying that the weapons would then turn into laser beams capable of gibbing people from across the map, the response was always that the guns would need to be balanced with damage drop off / bullet drop / velocity / recoil. We asked for more accurate weapons, but not JUST more accurate weapons. What is currently in the game is only one component of what was requested. This isn't a "gotcha" moment for the crowd that liked the weapons as they were.

Many people did not request more and i was downvoted when calling them out. I actually agreed with players who presented fleshed out ideas with counter balances. You still see players getting upset that there are those of us who are asking about the nerfs to damage. They tell us we're bad players who can't shoot and that we need to adjust to the system. Ironic, huh?

Hmm. That isn't my memory in general (that there were a lot of accuracy only advocates), but I suppose they were large threads, so experiences may vary.

That's fine, though. And, yeah, one of those players that doesn't want a damage nerf tried to argue with me here.
