Every Shot Counts Balance Update

Thank you for constructive feedback, yes this is what I am feeling and what needs to be done to balance the game. Thanks for understanding. Unlike most people.

 

Its the same reason so many people are asking for a sniper nerf. It doesn't happen every time, but every time it happens, you know, and it feels BAD.

 

Then whats with this nerf all cannon thread?. Are you asking to nerf your own (new) setup now?. That just doesnt make any sense.

 

I use 2 or 3 snipers on one boat. I want a sniper nerf.

 

Because as you climb up your infamy level, you will face stronger opponent, and when you finally cant hi certain infamy you will face player that you cannot outplay. Hence the lost of infamy you suffer.

Wasnt that the logic of this game?

 

Quite honestly you are doing really well to be MK5 at that infamy level. There are very few MK5's in nightmare and they don't get there unless they are highly skilled.

Your MK5 boat really doesn't do you any favors at this level of play. No knock on you, but don't ask for a nerf because you can't advance. This is the limitation of the boat. Nightmare should be reserved for those with strong equipment and boats.

When you hit MK6 your infamy will push you further up in infamy and you will reach nightmare..

 

Yeah, because even though i like destroying people, I at least realize when something is overpowered

 

Yeah I know, it’s just maybe I can be paired with other mk5’s until I reach nightmare league

 

You ARE getting fair matches. Your raw skill with underpowered equipment has put you in league with powerful boats. The unfortunate side effect is that they see you as easy prey because you roam in an MK5. When you get MK6 you'll be better off and able to push higher.

You will always face seemingly overpowered boats because you seem to be a skilled player. You are pushing the limits of your equipment.

I was MK5 Defender in nightmare for 2 months. I felt the same feeling of being easy prey. And still at MK6, I have less HP than most other defenders. Until last week I was even encountering enforcers with more HP than I have. Once in awhile there is still a shooter with more HP than me.

 

Which is the problem that I am surprised hasn’t been fixed yet, still.

 

When they're available, you are being paired with them... Or you'd prefer to wait until they connect?

 

Unfortunately, there aren't many at your infamy range and your wait time would be long. If you were placed with those at lower infamy you'd probably handily crush them. Not very fair to them in that case?

 

Any mk5 at ace 1

 

Double Tesla, I always wanted to do that for an enforcer, combats double bubble and is fricking annoying

 

Well they are still mk5’s right? Plus, I’ve seen my mk5 friends with weapons better than me, I’d rather face them than a mk6

 

With almost the same infamy you are I rarely see mk5s... Only mk6 and mk7

 

I get that, I'd rather see MK6 than MK7 but due to my infamy that just isn't going to be the case. I'm in matches facing unfriends equipped with high tier legendary stuff and I'm still rocking epic stuff with RARE bandages...

The point is we play skillfully with the gear we have received. Matchmaker sees our infamy and places us where we belong, like it or not.

And it's not always fair.

Yesterday I was in a match, highest infamy on my team at 4500. Got placed vs team with 2 5300+ infamy players. We luckily won because American Marauder (at 4200ish infamy) saved the day. We gained 29 infamy and carried on.
