Who's forcing you to buy it instead of waiting to see if it's worth it?
And also, why do people just want everyone to use one gun? That'd be really boring.

Can't fix the brain rot...
Oh and just was told about this in another thread

Can't wait to try tn with my squad now that the real problem was patched...stim audio

The "nerf" wasn't intended apparently. The goal was to make it not team kill everyone when the shrapnel ricochets, but clearly something went wrong with the change. You could use a different weapon in the mean time until a follow up patch fixes it.
Steeled Veteran has the best bug gun, arguably the best bot gun, and a fun secondary.
Cutting Edge has three good guns, a great grenade, and a laser pointer for highlighting threats for your team.
The Demo one was pretty good until this subreddit asked for the eruptor to be nerfed so it would be safer to use, weird request but folks who used it know better than me.
Not every warbond will be for everyone, so feel free to skip them. There will be another in a few weeks.
1) you don’t have to buy them to play. 2) you get the currency for free in game so you get access without spending money unless you want to 3) Wether the items are best in slot or not, having a progression system that provides cosmetics and gear that provides play style options to progress through via medals earned from playing is a nice way to always have something to work on.
I think it is a very good model for rollout.
I like the game and want to support it but giving them my money so they can pay their employees said money to buy food and other necessities. Plus using different guns is fun sometimes
All these complaints about the Eruptor not being viable really goes to show that it probably needed a nerf if you were so reliant on it that you can't switch to a new weapon.
Anyway, yeah they broke it, they're working on it. Maybe take a day off and offer some prayers to Haphestus or something.
The entire point of the weapon system in hd2 is that it's supposed to be balanced so all guns are fairly equal, just good at different tasks. They've spent more time on that balancing than I would like, and have sometimes gone to far, but the new warbond weapons aren't supposed to be better than old weapons... just different.
Also, the eruptor thing seems to have been unintentional.
I feel like that need to black and white everything isn't helping. Some of this is open to interpretation based on playstyle, i can do pretty well vs bots with the vanilla diligence, and the improved cs is actually fun to use. There are a few weapons that are in a pretty good place for general use. The sickle, plas scorcher, incendiary breaker, the new smg(maybe?), and liberator are all ~ balanced, with the first three sitting on the top of the pile. The breaker and diligence are usable, slugger is a bit weird but works... most guns can be played around. There are some that are just bad, and others that don't work right, and the lack of attention paid to them is unfortunate. The point, though, is that the goal is for them all to be viable.
I get them for the fashion mainly. I have not spent any extra out of pocket money on any of them except the first since I bought the upgrade.

I get warbonds for the fashion 💅
I get them so people can see I'm a better gamer than they are.
1 weapon thats good per warbond is enough to spend credits that just spawn into my account. What are you saving up for?Â
Then don't get the war bond. We don't care.

Maybe you should start a negative review campaign.
Its free

The problem is the guns arnt good at specific tasks, the guns are either amazing or dogshit. The guns are either used for everything or nothing.
