lol this thread
lol this balancing
lol this pricing

There's no way to properly balance the gun balance/pricing system at its current state without pissing a lot of people off. Had guns been at least remotely close to each other in pricing, then balancing guns would be peachy, to the point where anyone with an inklet of a clue about the gameplay can properly balance the game. The gameplay mechanics of Era are so basic and barebones; it's not the fact that the staff can't statistically balance the weapons in such a barebones game. That's the easy part.

The problem lies with the pricing. After the ridiculously outrageous prices were set on guns such as the likes of the BAR or PBP, you've crossed the event horizon. The point of no return. Nerfing these weapons to bring them in line with the rest of the low- and mid-tier weapons is essentially scamming everyone who previously purchased them, and keepin them in their current state makes the people who can't afford the weapons at a severe disadvantage. I usually don't say this, but...

^yes^  

there actually is a way to balance the guns. Only possible to perfect balance through absolute reset of weapons and re balance all of them.

That's never going to happen, it would take immense amounts of work, and would be basically scamming all the people who purchased guns already.

I don't think you read my post at all.

1. It's debatable which is better, as far as sparring goes, p2k are better
2. Why are you asking for bar to get nerfed, and not p2k to get buffed.
3. They won't nerf bar, as it would result in riots and it would be unfair to those who spent the 200k
4. Much more people have bar, and the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few

I never asked for bar to get nerfed. I simply explained to you what Ghetto was saying as you didn't seem to comprehend it.

He wants bar nerfed so the p2ks can be better. I think his demands are reasonable.

Lol you forget your own posts quite easily.

Show me where I said it then.  

I did.  

omfg you are stoopid  

I'm done trying to talk to you. You all obviously have to much arrogance to see anything with any level of reality.  

Jesus christ Ive only read up to the second page and this thread is already ridden with drama and butthurt. Man has era gone to hell. Again. In fact, this server has gone so far into its own arse that hell is a compliment at this point.

As for this thread, guys, let it die. Dont complain about annoying spam threads when you guys just randomly prolong them with your arguments and stupidity. The staff just need to stop trying to quell the hate on graalians and start trying to actually make progress on both refining the mechanics and stats of all of the guns, and creating new content so that other players wont get fed up with the lack of content.

A personal bit of advice for ALL era staff, especially those who decided to participate in this thread:
Hate only exists because you acknowledge it, players are just going to keep complaining as long as you keep responding to it. Just ignore the hate and focus on the helpful advice.
