Why nerf fully auto guns in an ARENA shooter? (Patch C)

Post » Sat Mar 09, 2013 12:13 am

I have been watching these forums since launch and no-one has complained about the scar and muzzle break combination and you decide to nerf it.

The recoil is terrible as it stands and you increase it! I purposefully tried to figure aout a combo I felt comfortable with instead of jackal whoring and you nerfed the one combo I liked.

Let me repeat NO-ONE complained about the scar/fy damage at range or the muzzle + scar combo in these threads at all. Where do you get your nerf ideas from Crytek?!

Good thing End game is coming out for BF3 - watch my log in time with Crysis 3 drop and scratch your heads wondering why.
Nerf the decent guns and make them crap - wats left now that shoots straight?

The takedown and grendal. Most FPS vets arent gonna use burst or single fire in an ARENA shooter (which crysis 3 is btw).

If your looking at percentage of people who use the grendal and takedown the percentage is low cause those guns svck for the fast paced ARENA type shooter (which Crysis is) - competitive fps vets prefer a fully auto gun. It is the nature of the game being an ARENA shooter that people be using fully automatic guns.

Nerfing the fully automatic guns isnt gonna increase burst and single fire gun usage in Crysis 3 overall...maybe on some long range maps, maybe.

1. The combination wasn't nerfed. The separate pieces were. So, it effects all loadouts.
2. Everyone has been complaining about the SCAR.

They dont just watch the forums. they alls have their telemetric stats that get recored on weapon usage and everything. These are much more reliebale then some complaining forum users. They probably concluded that those attachments would give an statistically unfair advantage to users not using those attachments

Yea but I havent seen too many, if any at all, ppl complaining about wanting a nerf of the recoil reduction of the foregrip/muzzlebreak. Fine nerf the autoshotty but I cant see where this was necessary. There's sufficient recoil.

Foregrip/muzzle break nerf was not needed - and wasnt called out in these forums as a problem.

Why dont you nerf match barrel and laser sight then too so everyone cant shoot straight?!!

(Btw no-one complained about the scar and fy at range either)

I guess you're just a huge scar + laser + muzzle breake + foregrip noob.

As if Crytek or EA cares that you're going to be playing BF3 instead.

Quite the rebel, going from an EA game... to.. ya know, another EA game.

That'll show them!

I mean really, do what you want, but saying you're going from Crysis 3 to BF3 to put a hurting on Crytek is laughable at best. And over a little balancing patch, too. Calm down, it isn't like DICE hasn't nerfed 75% of the weapons in BF3 at one point or another.

Everyone centrainly didnt whine about SCAR, the nerf was based on stats and those who said it was OP because their whining got no resistangce.

I didnt disagree with them so I was quiet about it, it was borderline OP eitherway~

Anything that increases the skill cap of a game is a good thing

LOL! Go back and read my post during the BETA, and in the following week. You'll see that I called it! I said Crytek would fix shi t that no one ever wanted fixed, but would leave the most jarring ad flagrant issues unpatched. CryTek is the single worst game developer ( that considers themselves a triple A studio), that exits in the WHOLE WORLD.
