    If 'OP' isn't a mainstay of this game's lingo, then we're not playing the same game. What do ZOE, Vulcan, Libs, SAW, shotguns, rocket primaries, PPA, AH, every-weapon-the-other-factions-get have in common? I'll give it to you: they're all OP! (or used to be for a few in there). :cool:

    Ahhh, I thought you were referring to the other "OP" as in "Original Post". My bad mate.

    I had a hunch that was the case. Confusing acronym that one. ;)

    HAX: methods by which any other player kills you
    OP: used to define any weapon or vehicle that kills you
    UP: used to define any weapon or vehicle you prefer to use
    liberator: the harbinger of death unless you are also in your own liberator or have a severe numbers/resources advantage
    balanced: used to describe any weapon or vehicle you use that allows you to easily murder your enemy with little or no risk to yourself

    We should add there's a second definition used by SOE:

    balanced (noun):
    - any and all features which may cause complaint or be considered enjoyable to use are removed until the weapon becomes generic to the point that no one uses it
