    This is a dumb take.

    If there was a gun that 1 tapped every enemy in the game and had infinite ammo and maybe even auto aimed for you, that would suck a lot of the fun out of the game wouldn’t it?

    Would you not want that gun to be nerfed or would you want every gun in the game to become a 1 tap super weapon?

      Good thing you get to choose which gun you use. I personally would love that weapon. I’ve got two kids and a full time job. I need a nerf mode. The rest of y’all can use whatever other guns you like. But give me the BFG and let me have my fun.

        This game has like ten difficulty options. If you need the BFG on easy mode then you probably are just bad at videogames.

          So what. Let me be bad at video games and still enjoy it. Not everything needs to be a side hustle, maxed out, semi-pro, rise and grind. I just want to have a hobby, even if I’m shit at it forever, because it’s fun.

          You should try it sometime. It’s a much less stressful and actually enjoyable way to live.

        That’s what the difficulty mode selection is for. If you want an easy One-Shot experience just play on the easier modes. Overpowered over tuned weapons just create assholes in the higher difficulties kicking people out of games for not taking “the correct” load out.

        Those of us with a little more time or a little more skill or a little more both enjoy the harder difficulties actually being… Difficult. Imagine that, the correct place to give people the ability to have a Nerf mode is in the difficulty slider which thankfully the developers have done!

        Instead of complaining about weapon balance just turn down the difficulty and enjoy your easy experience

        Nope, I want a balanced sandbox. If I went into a lobby and everyone was using the 1 tapper (because why wouldn’t they) Then the game would be way too easy and I would have to do closed lobbies and go out of my way to find people that want to run the game without the 1 tapper, just to have fun.

        If you’re bad at games you can just play on easy mode.

      1 tap super weapon, and introduce a viable challenge to make that obsolete.

      But you’ll just get premium war bond weapons from here on out to close the difficulty gap.

        The weapons in premium war bond aren’t really good. Also, if it’s a nudge at the premium part being a money grab… I’m lvl 17 and I have the premium unlocked without spend any real money.
