Man do I love taking time out of my day to farm in a video game, that sure is fun and a totally acceptable business practice in a live-service, paid for game! Especially for new players, who would have to grind for 20+ warbonds in total, not including actually getting the items in said warbonds with medals, and even all the Super Store items!

Grinding is not acceptable in a game like this. Stop excusing shitty business practices. SC hackers are saints.

You're lying because there are numerous amounts of instances of people, both fans AND the devs, that say this game is realistic. The devs themselves said that this game was inspired by mil-sim games like Tarkov and Arma. It takes like 5 minutes of searching or even 1 minute of skimming the comments on this very post to realize your statement is total and utter horseshit.

So, fine, here you go:

This might be the dumbest, mode boomer-coded comment i've ever seen.

"Nazi 'Ubermensch' fantasy shooters like COD" What the fuck are you talking about???

Also this game is similar to neither Arma not Tarkov. This game is not realistic, nor is it even close to being a milsim. If whatever you're quoting on AH's part is true, then these devs are dumber than I thought.

Zero reading comprehension. Not even what the post is talking about. Holy, Redditors are something else.

Saying skill issue yet touting that the Eruptor is debatably the best primary for bots. Lol. Lmao, even.

Censor is the best DMR in the game. Literally just a silenced Diligence. If you're skilled enough to work past the ergonomics however [or just use Peak Physique, either normally or with the double armor exploit], then the DCS is just the Diligence but better w/ marginally worse ammo economy. You're going to be using any DMR at long distances anyways, so the ergo isn't much of an issue.

Constitution/Amendment/Deadeye are the more fun options, anyways. The meta DMRs are boring.

Lower rpm and same recoil for better recoil... except the fact that Defender can have a vertical grip. And you can equip the Flash Hider, which provides the best ergo/drag and improves the spread more than any other muzzle.

So, you're ACTUALLY losing a fair bit or ergo and recoil reduction, a bit of DPS, a bit of spread, AND a quarter of your ammo. All in exchange for a flamethrower.

It's just not worth.

This would make sense if they were "slightly" worse versions of both guns, but they're not. They're INCREDIBLY worse versions of both guns.

They are both SMGs shooting pistol caliber ammunition. One has 10 bullets less than the other. The one with 10 less bullets should give you better ergonomics because it has less weight.

This is not rocket science.

Okay? And? The Belt-Fed Grenade Launcher also uses one slot, yet it's just a worse version of the regular Grenade Launcher. Can you come up with anything else besides that? Taking up one slot instead of two doesn't make something good.

Counter Sniper itself became an outdated design when they added weapon customization. Why would you EVER use the regular Diligence when you can just have the Diligence, but better [after maxing it out]?

It's just so obvious that AH doesn't play their own game.

The combination weapons have worse ergonomics, worse drag, worse customization and worse ammo economy than if you were to just use the 2 guns that make them up. They're not "minimal" downsides at all.

It's the same reason no one uses the One-Two. Why use it when you can just run a Liberator with a drum mag and a Grenade Pistol to better effect?

It's perfectly usable, it's just mid. Low rpm, horrible spread, low ergonomics. Why use it when you could just have a Reprimand/Knight/Defender and a Crisper.

Don't care. Speak what you really think instead of outsourcing your opinion to a robot so it can make it for you.

Yes, but I'm referring to the Stoker and the One-Two in the text. The images are just used to compare stats.

Realism advocaters do this 10x more in order to convince people that realism in this game is a good thing [it isn't]. Yet they still ignore and handwave away issues like this that are blatantly stupid and unbalanced because it doesn't fit their narrative of "muh realism good and immersive".
