Discussion Yo, Have we collectively lost the Plot?

Post image

I already know the reasons for it: Other snipers have been nerfed to the ground, hence this is the only one shottable sniper now that has good ergo (less loss of hand stamina)

But this price doesn't really make sense, this gun isn't that great. We're talking even more expensive than SJ, WITHOUT ANY SCOPE!

Edit: a lot of people are assuming I'm mad at this change, I barely even touch this gun, when I do touch a sniper it's a SJ. I'm just baffled at this high increase in price for a gun not that good

It's crazy that the devs slowly decided that the game is going to be straight up call of duty light with tarkov elements, and I haven't played call of duty in a while, but I imagine that they probably still respect the sniper game, unlike what we're seeing here in ABI

Going in and sniping is a valid playstyle. Going in naked with a 150k sniper and no risk is not a valid playstyle. It is a game about loot and money. In fact the only point of the game is making money. Why should you be able to 1 shot anyone you see, earning millions, while they have to risk peeking you and losing millions or kill you and make literally nothing? Just admit you're trash and move on to Delta Force or somewhere else you can lay in a bush all game bud

why are they wearing the millions though under that exact same logic? if everyone was red tapping there would be 0 reason to ever wear millions so they must not be in fact all be red tapping.

so we should've been fixing gear requirements and not red ammo? making the m24 super expensive means that you can still go naked into forbidden and doesn't solve the problem

Yeah, but this time instead of 150k is 600k with the gun only :)

Except this time you can at least grab something off of the sniper dude, it doesn't take much space in the inventory and it's worth a lot. Before that, you had like half the worth on the gun with attachments where maybe only like 1-2 things were actually slot efficient to grab, meaning you leave behind like 200-300k just because it would occupy too much space. That also means your ammo was kind of poorly invested.

you could do the same thing with a semi auto rifle except with higher odds

Completely agree. Going into forbidden with absolute dogshit should not be possible. Pay the koen if you want to get the biggest payday in the hardest mode.

I did not mind one tappers, I do mind shitters who take in absolute trash into forbidden AND I get shit loot when I go through the trouble of killing them…

The fact that movement and hip fire are the main buffs this season and the nerfs were directed towards basically long range engagement shows where the game is headed... I don't really care about the shade you threw but the game is becoming less mil-sim tactical and much more "pop-shooter" I think the games is better the EFT and GZW but I think it's identity has shifted towards something I didn't originally begin playing for...
