    You been living under a rock? Because you're obviously not playing the same game. Go play your TR and VS accounts. There are a few things that are ok with the NC but please don't insult anyone's intelligence. If SOE doesn't see that there is a Balance problem , then they must be on drugs. They have nerfed just about every damn thing the NC has. You nerf to balance not unbalance. We have sooo many weapons that are complete garbage it isn't funny. What SOE has done would equate to you buying a car and the car manufacturer coming to your house and changing your car while your asleep because they can. Then deciding to change it again and again. We are paying for this stuff. Basically it's like stealing your $$$$ because now what you bought is not the same as when you bought it. This B.S. has completely unbalance this game. How many stats does it take for these people ( supposed educated people at that ) need to see there is a problem. I play this game too and have TR and VS accounts so don't try and paint this rosy picture that all is ok with the NC. Not a problem just gonna get the rest of my money's worth and then see ya because I won't support people like SOE ever again.

    When I play TR/NC, I try and fight the VS exclusively, because that's the whole point of me playing TR/NC in the first place. I *rarely* die to a ZOE MAX. Rarely.

    I don't get it quite frankly. To me, they're easy to kill. When I *am* killed by one, it's because I rounded a corner and was shot in the face. I'd have died to anything at that point. Not just a ZOE MAX.

    Here is a quote from a NC player that has played all faction.

    If your a dev waiting for me to give you any money for your unballanced game you may as well start looking for another job.

    My last purchase in PS2 was a $5 in SC so I could get my TR infiltrator a sub machine gun I bought it mostly to have a sSMG on all three factions even though i rarely play anymore. I get 500sc a month for all access pass that I pay for with Krono from EQ. So there is no real need to give PS2 s dime.

    No interest in spending money on or playing a game that is so poorly balanced as PS2. No desire to buy item that are ether under powered are ones that are so clearly over powered that they will eventually be nerfed.

    or maybe it is just that the NC have whipped themselves into a hysterical frenzy of playing the victim and calling themselves UP across the board due to some issues with some of their gear and are in no need of blanket buffs to each and every piece of equipment as the NC bads would have you believe?

    Has anyone ever said that ?

    We need a few things tweaking up and TR/VS need a few things tweaking down .. No blanket buffs or nerfs needed

    Well if they think the NC is fine I'd be very interested to hear their assessment as to why the NC didn't win on one single server in the WDS

    90% of all NC posts on this forum for the last 8 months have been saying that with anectodal evidence, made up stats adn ballant lies. Accoding to some 6 pellets dealing the same damage as a certain gun with half the dps does not mean 3x the dps. and yes I am talking about the scattermax

    Dude, you just proved my point...:rolleyes:

    Nice way to try and save face but your point was a whole lot different.

    My point was that things were not as bad as people make them sound; you, on the other hand, make them sound like poor NC weapons cause hunger in Africa or something. IE: YOU PROVED MY POINT. :cool:

    Well if they want us to switch to another faction why dont they give a cert and sc refund on all spent on our NC characters so we can make a VS or TR character ?

    The problem with the shotgun is that it is a shotgun, its useless outside 10-5 meter biolab range, outside there it like we dont have a max at all, while in biolabs the TR max is not as effective as ours but can do decently, and the ZOE is as efective as ours, NC need railguns, period. and about the reaver its true we dont have very good pilots, im not very good either, but i like to look at the stats on everything, and the reaver seems quite underpowered by the fact that it is much bigger and while the scythe is much smaller, and the mosquito is much smaller and faster, the reaver has the exact same health as them.

    Balancing games around the lowest players is a great way to do it. Heres what happens when you buff NC guns, bads/noobs can use them, people that know how to play become massively overpowered with them. I personally would prefer to keep massively OP **** out of the game, even if the people who just finished downloading the game find it harder.

    You got it right bro, NC needs a redesign

    There is a core of truth to what you're saying, the longer the current imbalance stays the more NC veterans will pack up and leave or switch faction.

    So yes, every day the NC is filled on average by more and more n00bs.

    I'd be less surprised if they had just laughed at "NC buffs." There is no silver-lining for the NC. :(

    I wouldn't say NC is in a terrible place right now , but it does have a longer learning curve and I think are Max needs a better AV weapon because most of TR vehicles use so much spam damage that they can take you out way quicker and from much further away , ask yourself would you want to shoot at a two shot tank and stand their to guide you rocket or would you prefer to shot and duck.


    P.S. by two shoots I mean if both of their bullets hit you with max flak on your done.

    Please link the video with the approximate minute:seconds where this happened please.

    They aren't aware of the NC weapon underperformance because it doesn't exist. They're well aware of the whiney campaign of the NC to try and have their already very on par weapons buffed to be superior to the other faction's weapons. Seriously, if you really think NC weapons are underpowered you're an idiot. The raw stats of all the faction's weapons are preposterously similar. The only faction who has any advantage at all over the other's is VS with their no bullet drop. The difference is 99% in your mind if you actually believe in it. Would NC be happy if SOE just flat buffed all NC weapons to be 10% stronger than all other faction's weapons? What would be the point? And don't rabble on about "boo hoo shotguns" as if you don't have any other viable choices in any slot you can choose a shotgun. You're lying to yourselves and it's hurting no one except you.

    hmm.. i don't see an NC character in your signature.. Maybe you should give the NC a shot, if they're so good. :D
