OmniThought's Criticism of Weapon Nerfing
Weapon stats have quite obviously most likely been changed multiple times.
The developers of the game may be doing this, I can only assume, to appease the community, or because they feel that certain weapons are overpowered, however, weapons should not continually be changed. Players buy weapons because they have certain stats. When these stats are changed, the weapon does not have the same value to players that it previously had. Players will always complain that some weapons are more powerful than others.
Players should also be notified of weapon changes. Z8 may not be notifying us of these changes because players may complain, but, as the values of the weapons players buy are being changed, players should be notified, regardless of whether they complain or not.

They usually do tell us when the weapon gets nerfed. A lot of the times when you start hearing a weapon got nerfed, its usually somebody that does bad after a patch, and blames their gun, then the rumor of the gun getting nerfed gets spread. Although, if a weapon does get nerfed and if a lot of people object to it, then the Devs/GM's will compromise.
For Example: When the AK Silver first came out, it had a 38-114 ammo capacity, GM's said that they will be nerfing it to 30-90. Many of the AK-S buyers objected to this on the forums and in the end, the GM's compromised and made it to 35-105. -

This one example. One example is not sufficient enough to support a statement saying that they "usually do". There must be a reason why the amount of players noticing changes in their game play has outnumbered the amount of players who believe their game play to have stayed the same. -
Ok then, could you please name off these Nerfs that you know of?
I'm not going to post a list of complaints. There is a search button as well as a next page button for that. The purpose of the thread is to state a point that someone will take something from, not reiterate the complaints that players have already made. -
I know that there is a search button, but if you read most of the threads, people ask if the gun has been nerfed, some people will end up saying Yes, most say no. People start having an off day and can't explain why, then they see on the forums somebody asking if a gun has been nerfed, then the person uses the nerf as an explanation as to why they started doing badly.

That isn't a nerf, they just changed the sound of it. If changing the sound of the gun is a nerf, then that means the SL, AWM, and Dealge wee're all nerfed.
No one ever said that ebbcause they changed the sound they nerfed it.
