What's the point of getting a new, shiny toy if you don't enjoy the experience of playing the game? I'd just quit if I ever felt like that. Goals help to give focus to your play, and some sense of progress, but if you don't enjoy the process of achieving them, why bother? this, basically.

ChuckMaverick Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Using an overpowered ability/weapon combination and exploiting are not the same thing. Mirage + Simulor may be cheesy and unfun for the some of the other members of your cell, but it is not cheating. Exploiting means cheating, I don't get why it is so hard for some people to understand that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlitoooo Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Well to be fair, It's really boring, well it's fun for one game because you're like "wololo i'm god 99% dps blaze it" then it's cool for quick farm. (It's cool because i enjoy to enter a game, spam simulor, see 1 or 2 people insta quit... I think it's my troll side) But on the other side sometimes I play a good old frame (not too OP) with good old weapons like cernos and I play like a ninja. I mean I take cover not to die and it takes me 4 - 5 shot sometimes to kill something. I enjoy it too. english bad for sorry Edited December 6, 2016 by Charlitoooo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirfol Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) I read all the post and like someone suggested the way to deal with the situation is to nerf the possibility for mirage to do blast and singularity for the clones. For those who say "if u don't like it go solo" i say: are u friggin 7 years old? Because it's a argument i can say to you to: your bothering people go play solo if u want, but lets say the truth u don't do it because u want the bonus a 4man party give (more spawn). For those who say: hey i'm helping the party by nuking everything. Yeah IF IT WASN'T FOR THE FACT U GO UR WAY WITHOUT WAITING ANYONE and this cause other 3 people in the party to not take affinity. Wow u sure are helping man. Why someone need to run behind u because u don't care for other people? Go play solo if u are so egocentric your so op u will not have problems. For those who say : then why u don't nerf other nukers. Thats what DE are doing don't worry they listen to ur cry for balance, but don't whine when the nerf bat come knocking to ur door. For those who want to play lazy: well there is frost ur doing a awesome service if do ur bubble and stay in there sing Carmine burana. Here ur real lazy gameplay without much effort and giving a service for the party. Why are u even bothering to play a 3rd person fast action shooter if u want to be lazy is something i don't understand. And remember it's the fault of spammer ego who can't even push the secondary fire (click roll scrool) we have the visual problem. So yes nerf the sinergy of miramulor and then nerf other unhealty mechanichs and then u can start to balance enemies btw.

Exploit is using something to advantage urself while the vision of the Dev say otherwise. Like u described. DE didn't expect so much sinergy with this weapon and this is proved by all the nerf/rework they did until now. And ur really naive if u think the miramulor (not the quote but those anti nerf) isn't a problem and again the proof is in front of ur eyes, the number of pages for this thread and the number of this type of thread popping out almost weekly.

-CCC-Secret Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 If you guys do want to nerf the "cheese" the players have, nerf the enemy "cheese" as well. You see, if you remove those AoE nukes that are so called exploits, enemies will still be broken. Now imagine those broken enemies in a defense at level 60 or so. How long will it take to kill the enemies? Even with cheese tactics it takes about 5 minutes to finish a 5 waves, now imagine without the "cheese". 10 maybe 15 minutes every 5 waves. So you, you spend 10-15 minutes finishing the broken enemies and guess what. You're rewarded with a Magazine Warp. Yeah cool, that's like my 300th Magazine Warp, totally needed that. See? Not fun. You guys only want to fix one side of the coin, not the other. You guys ignore the fact that if you remove such "cheese" tactics the game will not become worth playing because of stupid rewards. It's cool if you want to fix Mirage + Simulor (which IMO isn't broken since it can't kill 100s as easy as Peacemaker or anything), as long as you fix the other side too (rewards and broken scaling).

(PSN)SISATi_Ih_PICKA Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Off course she looks op in lowered levels. When endgame comes back on consoles you be wishing for mirage/Simulor to carry you/ CC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GovernmentSecrets.gov Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Honesty it seems pretty rare to run into anyone using Mirage and simulor, simulor takes a lot of forma it's easier to just to use the flame thrower thing. I've used the simulor and it really doesn't hold up in the higher levels, especially against eximus units. Max range and efficiently Hydroid beats everything.

It'll just be boosted by Mirage's ability..which is exactly what the ability is supposed to do. The damage isn't an issue with the weapon, only how many people it hits. If the issue is how many people and not how fast or how much damage than mirage is fine because simulor hits the same AMOUNT of enemies regardless of whether clones are active or not.

I never once said Mirage was a problem or that she needed to be changed. My entire argument has always been about balancing the Simulor. Aside from Mirage being able to further boost the OP weapon there's nothing wrong with her. That's the weapon's fault, not hers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it the weapon fault? Have you tried using it against a level 100 gunner or bombard? I takes you 15-20 sec for the bombard and 13-15 seconds to kill a gunner. It purpose it to get rid of trash enemies. Now when I use my HoM build the time to kill a bombard went down to 5 seconds...she is the main reason that this gun consider op. Nerf it to the ground and then 2 weeks start complaining about the new meta gun that she'll use. But never fix the root of the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundervision Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 This is an offtop, but it's pretty close to WF's and other games' design issues when some features slip out of developers' hands: The whole thing reminded me of The Bee issue in Borderlands 2 (the game which is about grind much more than WF is). There was a legendary The Bee shield with insane damage AMP per bullet/pellet with zero Shield charge drain and this thing with pellet-based guns/shotguns was (and it still is for projectiles dividing after shot) friggin' OP until Gearbox made it share AMP damage among all pellets. It will be simple: Mirage = The Bee Synoid Simulor = Shotgun/Conference Call (Terra is a Raid boss) Spoiler Now the Warrior isn't a Raid boss, but still: One of vid's commentaries: >What is the point of playing the game then. ...and why even nerfs (and yet again mechanics slipped out of hands) can't stop abusing The reaction of the Bee being balanced was hilarious and caused a saltstorm. Sigh. ...sometimes it's hard to admit that some things aren't OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the Simulor's fault or Mirage's fault, but the interaction between the two of them. The fact that the majority of a Simulor's damage comes from orbs merging, together with Hall of Mirrors firing multiple orbs at the same time, scales the damage far higher than it would be with Mirage and any other weapon.
