Phantom Tuning Poll


(Ronan) #41

I can pubstomp with him but he’s not being played how he was designed to be played. THAT’S my problem.

Phantom is a recon based class that HAD stealth. Now he’s just this guy with an SMG with a sheet thrown over his head. It’s like they took Bushwacker, removed his turret, gave him a hardly viable melee weapon, and that’s it. That’s all he is now, a Bushwacker with less utility.

You’re simply upset because Phantom is a merc that changed the ‘meta’ of the game, per-say. Also fair to assume you took the time to complain the forums instead of trying to find ways of countering him.

It’s a shame that people like you lurk on these forums. I wonder if you’ve a nice setup on the boat, the rest of your body soaking in the salt water whilst the only things above it are your arms and head, slowly stroking your neckbeard and tilting your fedora ever so slightly each time you make a comment about how Phantom was “under nerfed”, “remove this character from the game, it killed me! DDDD’:”

He needed nerfs, you can even see my vote result. “Wrong way to nerf”. But, not this. Not so people like you could dance around and win games because something that killed you is not viable any longer when it’s up against you.

To further my point of how absolutely toxic this guy is-

You still don’t get it. The majority of the players stated the game was less fun. The devs listened to the players. And you’re still crying about people not learning how to counter him and dismissing the fact that you just need to learn how to play him. You can’t just go around getting easy kills with no effort anymore. That’s what people hated. That’s what the devs fixed. Keep crying, bitch.

That’s like saying if they removed Nader’s grenade launcher and martyrdom, and she still gets kills with her SMG, that you just “need to learn how to play her”. See how stupid that sounds?

Well, that’s basically what they did to Phantom. I could learn how to play any merc without their abilities, doesn’t mean it’s making the merc any fun. Phantom is an sub-par merc at best right now, he’s not that fun to play.

He needed to be nerfed, yes, but not nerfed to a way where he’s not fun. They made it better for the people who didn’t like Phantom, but killed it for the people that liked Phantom’s concept, not necessarily that he was OP.

Yea, he WAS fucking OP, but he did his job. Sneakily spooky ghosted his way in, killed people, and got out. Now he’s just a front-line assault with a sheet that absorbs some damage.

Please, remove your head from your conceded asshole and look at someone else’s point of view.

Good. I’m glad he’s less fun to play. That means that everyone else is having more fun in game. But I totally understand that as a Phantom player, you think that me considering all the other players level enjoyment as well as my own is me having my head up my ass.

No, if anything, you’re more more like the devil on the shoulders of the other players, constantly whispering; “Fuck Phantom! Fuck Phantom! Game would be better without him!”

You don’t care about the other players at all. You only care about yourself, and seeing the overwhelming number of people who agree that he was overnerfed or needed to nerfed differently?

Even players who said fuck Phantom agree that they went overboard? Damn, bud. Looks like I’m on the higher ground.

As they say in sports. “Scoreboard”

75 people say overnerfed or needed to be nerfed differently. +3 for the ones who said NO nerf was needed, and compared to the, uh…

Perfect changes, and undernerfed, that’s a total of what, 13?

I’m no math wizard here, but that’s 62 more people saying he needs to be buffed and fixed, and not what he is right now.


(loonyTop) #47

Lol I’m sure that Phantom players think he was over-nerfed. Now quadruple that number and you still don’t get the number of players who thought the game was less fun with Phantom as he was. Higher ground? Lol. Sigh, dumb as well as selfish. Not surprising.

"I was one of the people who said he should be nerfed…but yeah more I think about it and even played him a little…they went to far.

They really should get rid of his stealth or give him a more perfect stealth…" Post from someone who thought Phantom should’ve been nerfed.

Do you have a poll where a good 93-95% of people say he should’ve been nerfed?


(loonyTop) #49

What? No. So what? That doesn’t change the facts that everything I stated is correct.
