DICE adjusting weapon damage based on beta feedback




The Battlefield 3 beta is over and DICE has no doubt received a ton of input on all aspects of them game, especially the weapons in respect to their damage and accuracy. DICE’s lead designer, and weapon specialist Alan Kertz has revealed a lot of interesting news via his ever growing Twitter account.

Among the confirmations is that the damage dealt by SMGs has been adjusted, after many complained that the UMP-45 and the PP-2000 were overpowered in the beta. However, Kertz stated that the main damage model for the weapons overall has not been changed.

It’s not surprising that DICE adjusted some weapons based on beta feedback, however, many also complained that it’s far too easy to kill people in Battlefield 3 compared to previous games, and that it almost feels like a hardcore setting. This won’t change, according to Kertz. Speaking of hardcore, he confirmed that damage will increase about 50% when playing Battlefield 3 on hardcore mode.

EA interacts and listens to the community way more then Activision. It makes you want to buy BF3 and just burn MW3. MW3 is such a copy of MW2 where as BF2 as focused so much on making it way better looking and more fun to play.

I'm glad they didn't really change the damage much at all. Guns are never overpowered, they're overused. Since Metro was an infantry based map, of course there was major SMG usage.

Another thing that would definitely affect the feedback is WHO sent theirs in. A CoD player would obviously complain about weapons being OP, just because he doesn't know how to fight it. If you gave them Caspian Border, they'd call jets OP. They'd call tanks OP. They'd call helicopters OP. Put down recon class and pick up the engineer class for once. Your team's obviously not caring about it because they're out fighting.

I love the fact that EA actually cares about their games, and they do something to improve them, black ops is as we speak, full of bugs and overpowered weapons, don't expect mw3 to bring anything better.
In the game shop where i pre-ordered bf3, which was 59 euros, i could also pre-order mw3 which was 49 euros.
Pre-ordered bf3 olololol.

The only reason the UMP seemed Over powered is because it shot so fast and with that instant kill glitch that was going on, people could only assume it was faulty damage.
