Direct pewpew weapons, all other weapons that interfere with the direct pewpew weapons like machine guns, shotguns, plasma emiters, will be nerfed, again, and again, and again as it has been over the last 10 fukking years.
Its like they stopped caring about realism for their own game, and just tailored their weapons to make it comfy for people coming from other pewpew rapid fps shooter games.
so they get addicted, feel powerful, and send their money to these devs, that only seem to serve them, while most other weapons are left behind and ignored.
When you spend years learning the tactical rhythm of a game—accounting for positioning, suppression, deliberate pacing, and mechanical depth—watching it get repeatedly flattened into a twitch-shooter playground feels like a slap in the face. They trade away the identity and realism that hooked their core players in the first place, all just to optimize the dopamine loop for casuals who will bounce to the next shiny release in six months anyway.
