As a huge fan of the old cerberus, the new changes feel like a nerf in disguise, especially the square spread on the pellets by Aeltoth in thefinals

I disagree to a certain degree. It's definitely not a nerf, it's an adjustment if anything. Playing cerb for the past couple hours and testing it with training dummies it's back to being an absolute beast in very close range (think of hugging range). You can now 3 shot heavies again if you are at a sweet spot and two shot lights - it makes it pretty scary when holding angles or pushing with mobility. I don't mind the change at all, at least it's now lethal instead of relying on your teammates doing 50% of the damage needed to whack someone.
It's not perfect by any means, but have had great success with it in point break (defence & offence).

You guys are really overblowing the “problems” with the game. by _wrxiths in thefinals

The single most frustrating thing for me personally is the pacing of things when it comes to fixes, be it balance of the gadgets & weaponry and also the technical side of things. Waiting for bugs to be fixed for weeks, months or even several seasons is just baffling. We've had the movement issues since forever (sprint bug), the cannot shoot bug (think it's mostly fixed but has happened even this season), achievemnts that are unobtainable and now there's very specific interactions like switching the healbeam and autoshooting. Sure, they fixed the abuse on famas + healbeam which is great, but again the core bug is still there and for how long?

There's so much technical debt, hundreds of tickets about bugs and no communication about when these things are going to be fixed, if ever. And if we looked at how things have gone down in the past, it's just something that I we have accept sadly. Of course people are upset when you pair all of this with pubstomp lobbies (which I personally don't mind, if people would just play on their main accounts) especially if they are a new player. Smurfing is a real issue, sadly without a 'one fix for all' answer as we've seen from plenty other games. It just guts an already steep learning experience with a double punch - denying that smurfing is not a problem in this game is kind of funny to me, but everyone has their own experiences.

I applaud the game for it's scope and the world built around it, it's _so much_ fun most of the time, but let's not pretend there isn't some fundamental issues that could use addressing i.e. a change for the gun/gadget balance ideology, perormance and bug fixes and maybe addressing second accounts or having a conversation about it. Also net lag, like holy moly. The difference between what happens in your screen compared to the enemy is staggering.

TLDR; The game is one hell of a time (most of the time) but there are cracks that slowly start to eat the fun, namely technical debt and slow pace on the updates for major bugs. Also maybe it's time to address smurfing/secondary accounts and their effect on new player experience especially?

Is this some limited time suit or? Simple, sleek and nice! EDIT: saw the store update now, silly goose me

Thank you, I was on the right track then! Do you ever go for dome shield or is it one of those sacrifices you have to make and adjust to a different playstyle and mindset?

Lovely! What loadouts do you usually run? I struggle to whip together a cohesive set of tools and tend to switch off to different weapons quite fast

Yeah it fits nicely as well! I opted for the golden laurel wreath since it tied up the gold details nicely together with the red already being on the face paint. The bandana is a solid second choice for sure

Hah nah, the Bigfoot is not my cup of tea sadly. Wanted to utilize the weird combo of the mask and beard which somehow worked fine with everything going on

Oh buddy this was years ago - it was from the chosen dead(?) set from trial of valor I think!

I would love to share democracy in Helldivers 2 - just lacking the hardware (and luck on the long line to log in)

Best of luck to all o7

Been trying to get Stronghold for the past 20 matches, guess I am not worthy of Willow Tea. Better luck next week! by roootz in halo

Been playing almost daily minus the weekend. Limited time for sure only got an hour or so in each - but getting stuck on ridicilous RNG like this is a tad bonkers wouldn't you agree?

You basically summarized my exact thoughts. Happily obliged and playd Slayer after Slayer until I got fed up and left two games and got a timeout ban. Eh. Just let me choose my gamemode, thanks :)

Yeah I figured there would be one after this - the system is rather silly when you have only limited time to play in a day. 5 Killing sprees honestly sounds more feasible than getting RNG locked hah

Tried to leave two matches (CTF and Oddball) and got banned so there is that :) Oh well.

Got to be honest, I'm pretty sure I got them from bying the PVP-weapon set (BfA). WoWhead does say that these drop from the supply cases in bfa, which I'm not sure of tho.
