So it's been 24 hours now since most of the guns in the game have been significantly nerfed. There are many problems that come with this which I will talk about. I did not reply on the main thread because it will just get lost in the arguements.
1. Based on what Bitzsam has said, guns were nerfed according to price. Last night he had said that the vector was a cheaper m4 with less freeze, this shows that while doing these nerfs, Bitzsam didn't have reward numbers in mind, just prices. I believe that reward guns shouldn't of been hit this hard hit now the vector is pretty much useless compared to the m4 which is available to everyone. The vector is no longer a goal that everyone wants to go for since the exact same gun is for sale in shops.
2. Many of the guns were left untouched which made this nerf not as effective. Some of these guns are metalstorm, mp5, pdw, thompson, sten, and m4. The problem with this is that the high tier guns were hit hard while lower tier were kept the same. This nerf would be more realistic if all guns were nerfed at the same rate. At the moment since most guns like ion, vector, bar, and gm4 are slow, the guns listen above basically destroy them.
3. There were many unnecessary nerfs done. The bar could of easily dropped a damage so that it could be 9 perfect and still maintain its value and the psg didn't need to be semi at all. I saw that you stated that vector was only nerfed so that it wouldn't be better than m4a3, but what was really the point of nerfing m4a3?
4. This nerf has not really shown that much of an effect in general. The same gangs still own the same bases and sparring just feels depressing. The whole game feels like multiplex but with unwanted gun stats.
5. This is the last point I have and the biggest problem. Why would anyone want to buy a gun ever again? All guns are equal now so there's no point for people to spend anymore money. Games are made to make money and that's it, not for fun, but to simply make money. Making all the guns this bad won't help this money situation. P2w games are the top money makers because they reel people in to spend their money. Making graal 100% not p2w won't do anything but make the server lose money. People in this world are lazy, they don't want to work hard they just want everything to come to them easy. When you enter graal all you got is a starter pistol and a starter knife and nothing else. You got to go out there and learn how to play the game, decide what you want to accomplish, and make time to grind and achieve that. Why is it that all the fun to use guns have been made slow, so that a $50 starter pistol can compete with them? Graal is a game that requires work, it's not like other games where all you need to do is play for a few minutes a day and turn into a God, to be a god in graal you have to be on for 10+ hours a day grinding. Newer players don't quit because they can't compete, they quit because they're lazy and don't want to do any work, they just expect everything to come free to them. If you don't want to change things back to the graal I use to know and love to play than don't. Just know one thing and that's that you're wrong, players play this game for several hours a day and know much more than any developers or gun admins.
Bitzsam I respect you for one reason and that is that you try to make this game better. At the beginning where you changed the old reward hats and make better rewards, added new aimpoint guns, and reworked gun looks. You were actually improving the game and making it more enjoyable to play. This nerf just went a little overboard and there could of been many alternate ways to go along with this without changing the entire gun system. Hopefully you have read this and understand where I'm coming from.
