I agree on the fire rate stat here
Though i think you're over doing the spread, 0.065 is a between solution
And if a clip reduction needs to be deducted then 12 is too low, 16 is fine

You made a big mistake and you clearly know it, but you can't drop it even though you already lost in the argument. You just couldn't admit to the community what you did was exactly wrong. People like Lyk who couldn't even clearly see the true situation of the matter wouldn't obviously understand.

Are the board of staffs here in ERA really ok with this? Why don't you ask them honestly what they really think of what you did.

As for you, you shouldn't really meddle with things you don't even understand.
No I didn't make a mistake and I don't intent to revert it. Want to know other staffs opinions then go actually read through the thread and see what those who posted have said.
You can't critize someone as 'not being able to understand' when you have given no context or backing to prove that you know more than he does.
You paid for your gun your gun you don't want it nerfed. Fair enough but that is not a reason for gameplay to be left untampered when you have a significant balance gap between mid tier and high tier guns. If you can't accept that there was a SIGNIFICANT unfair advantage then it's pointless arguing as you will always stick to that as a way of justifying the price you paid for it. Just because you paid more for a gun doesn't and shouldn't mean that the gun that cost less has a 1/10 chance of winning against it. The gun that costs more should obviously have a SLIGHT advantage but not one that can't be overcome by a more skilled player.
Work with the change or keep complaining and see nothing change.
Of course I wouldn't honestly expect that you of all people and the others who supports your idea would even understand the words I am saying. Why don't you go back through the topics that you didn't managed to understand and try to comprehend what the majority really thinks of this justice of yours.
Yet again you have said nothing to prove you know anything. "You don't and will never understand what I am saying" is the biggest cop out excuse for 'I have no real argument but you're still wrong and the reason why you are wrong I don't need to explain because you can't comprehend it'
There's so much people complaining, and going all towards BitzSam. Every shooter game have a balance between guns, some become the new meta and others are not used too much as before. The problem here is that this game hasn't got any balance in years, and the players are got used to the meta and it's hard for them to rely on skill now.
Instead of going towards BitzSam, why don't you make a reply with the gun stats that you suggest to have?
Why are you so arrogant thinking that you know the most here?
If you cannot and do not understand the reasons that's been given for the change, then whats the point attempting to put everyone down here and claim that you know the most?
To me it just sound pretty much self-centered and deluded.
The environment is too competitive for players to actually survive and if the guns aren't actually modified such that the playing field is made even more fair, more players will quit and this unfairness will make this game meaningless.
You can argue that you paid for a good firepower and so there's no reason to change but you have to consider in the context of the game because the player base has increased and so somethings must be compromised.
Maybe you are concerned the reduced firepower will make it difficult to kill, but the player base has increased so even with reduced firepower, there will be more players to win/kill. It's actually a compromise for the good of the game but that doesn't affect your potential for kills/wins.

Bar got another balance. Clip went from 20 to 15 but in favor we gained a faster reload. I guess this is a bad move Sam. Either increase a bit of fire rate or spread please....
It got that change based on a suggestion from this thread. Nobody said anything when it was discussed against it so I implemented it

What's ironic is you calling his stats ironic as an attempt to prove the point that his stats mean he can't have an opinion when you have 1/5th of his kills.
30000 kills is enough kills to have an opinion. Even at 10000 I would say that is enough. Eras gameplay is not a complex system, you don't need 200k-500k kills to have the most 'valid' opinion as your experiences are no difference to theirs. All it comes down to is how much you play/ how powerful your guns are.
Kills don't mean anything in this game anymore with the amount of account sharing that goes on, with multiple people getting kill counts up on a singular account.
Saying that he isn't allowed to have an opinion and trying to ridicule him because he has a different and arguable more logically reasoned than those counter arguments is just another tactic to try devalue what he had to say because you have no actual response. It's pretty childish behaviour, not that, that is unexpected but you can't try and argue a point that these changes are unreasonable when so are the points and attitudes most of you have had
Arguments? The only argument- non plural is that you spent money on the guns. So what? I've already explained why that is not a reasoning against the guns being brought down to give lower tier- skilled gun users an advantage. The guns were too strong in comparison with the majority of the other guns in the game, if you say otherwise then you are simply biased because you bought them.
I'm in this position because I am unbiased. You can say 'there needs to be more people making the decisions' but guess what those people would also have to be unbiased and therefore the same conclusion will be reached.
I paid for most of the high tier guns such as bar, shipka, pbp myself. I didn't get those guns for free and yet I am willing to put aside the fact that I paid for them, be unbiased and balance them for the benefit of gameplay as a whole

I've explained multiple times why you can't nerf the 2 strongest guns and then leave the other guns. Doesn't take much common sense to see that if the 2 best guns are brought down, so do similar guns so that those guns don't just replace them as they'd become statistically better.
I've only ignored your suggestions if they were the same repetitive argument i've answered 100 times or if they were for biased reasonings such as you suggesting me ingame to buff the p2ks (and after looking at your account I happened to see that you had just reached 100k kills so suprise suprise why you would want those buffed now that you can buy them).
The only valid suggestion i've seen you make is the cripple cannon which I have already implemented by reducing its knockback potential from 50% to 10%
You claim to be unbiased but your response to people spending money on weapons and the fact they are devalued is so what. That speaks for itself your biased and discriminate towards people who grind for shells or spend real life currency. The fact you don't value spending money doesn't take into consideration the people that do. The hypocrisy is incredible in your statement.
You fail to realize that your opinion alone is not the only one that needs to be taken into consideration. Just because you say something is too powerful or too weak doesn't make it so.
700 replies but apparently nothing is wrong.

You never said you were considering the idea hence the reason why 'Nobody said anything'. The NEXT time you are considering and idea make it clear you want feedback on it because we can never tell if your serious or not. (Honestly I thought the nerf was a joke and then you said it was staying that way)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't we say no when BiTzSam trying nerfing the BAR? Something about removing Perfect Shape...
At this point, it should be clear that the logic behind all this isn't correct, so why is this still an argument and not reset and reworked yet?
We'll continue to "complain" since this all still wasn't fair or properly done.
That cc nerf was mean. I suggest to make it AT LEAST 20-25%
Does the Cripple Cannon nerf apply for green mode too?
Okay amidst this argument might I suggest a buff to neo rifle? Sure it looks cool and it's cheapish but maybe it should have like a clip of 3, I really don't think 2 is enough for practical use unless you can lead your shots to an almost unsettling level, or be dangerously up close.
Would be too good for the price at only 5.5k if that happened. It's a 10 damage gun with fairly low freeze and a good firerate, the low clip and reload it all that's holding it back. That extra bullet would make a fairly large difference

Yes you can't specify damage effects to modes in a gun unless it's explosive
Keep this thread about the discussion of the new gun stats, not verbal bickering amongst each other. If you are truly serious about the balance change then look at the Original Post and alter the stats given instead of telling Sam to simply revert the changes. You can count the number of players who gave stat suggestions on one hand out of 72 pages, and those stat changes were considered.
