Why are VS weapons SOOOO OP
IDK maybe its just TR is so weak and their weapons and tanks so awful. But it really seems like VS weapons always seem to do better than anything else.

If you want further proof just look at how many contients they controlled since forever. They are about to get their third

This is my theory, people just got tired from losing, and they changed to Vanu instead of become better, so Vanu is full of NC and TR traitors who wants "easy win"

I wouldn't say OP but more forgiving since there is no bullet drop. You could say the people playing the VS side is playing the game like counter strike while the TR and NC is playing it like PUBG.

If you can't beat them at gunplay, you could always use harassers, mines, cloakers, esfs, bases and many more features in this game to beat them. It also helps if you have a coordinated outfit/group of friends that you can play with.

Not really discounting hackers but those exist on all 3 factions.

Bullet drop doesnt mean anything at effective engagement range.

Like yeah, they have a shotgun with No bullet drop. Give it up, you cant win.

That aside i dont know where you play, but on Miller ive found that, since most of their population is concentrated in 2-3 outfits that play to win, not to have fun, they tend to win more alerts. If you want to win you only have to sit in empty bases with 95 other people to cap it. Most battles are won and ruined by having more people.

They are just willing to traderfun for winning.

Play VS. You'll find that not only are they not OP, but that they are also the weakest faction in the game.

VS weapons are high accuracy, low recoil and have fast reloads. They are not op by means of time to kill, but they are the most easy to use weapons in the game.
And on top of that, there is the whole "i don't have to aim" issue with AoE weapons like the lasher, or projetiles with bigger hitboxes, that turn misses into hits.

Two points.

1) VS are not OP. They just have a skill ceiling so low the rest of us keep mistaking it for the floor.

2) There is only one OP faction in the game and it's the one you are fighting at the time.
There is only one underpowered faction and it it's the one you picked at the time.

You're really delusional if you think that. After years of playing NC, I decided to switch over to the VS. I joined TWC2 and I never looked back. Most of the Officers are decent than NC but its the weapons is what makes the VS win.

I'm still unclear to why people on this forums still think that the Gauss SAW is the best weapon while the VE-H Maw has Unstable Ammunition which extends its bullet size by 1.5x and has the rate of fire similar to an SMG, damage almost similar to the Gauss SAW. Oh and did I mention that its extremely accurate? Like I barely need to aim using that weapon to wipe entire squads of NC/TR's.
Unstable Ammunition Makes headshots pointless tho.
Its rewards people who spray and pay.

Headshots don't mean anything if it isn't a sniper or a Gauss SAW. The last time I used a Gauss Saw on a VS, I shot them 4 times on the head and they did not drop. So I raged back to my VS and actually had fun killing NC/TR without having to aim. The VE-H Maw kills every infantry in less than 2 seconds unlike the Gauss Saw which takes forever because of how inaccurate it is. Point is, Unstable Ammunition may make headshots pointless but it stacks the body count of enemies by 10x than the Gauss Saw.
That's exactly what Amanoob meant with "VS are not OP. They just have a skill ceiling so low the rest of us keep mistaking it for the floor."
If killing enemies in less than 2 seconds seems good to you, you're going to have a bad time against any player that can and does aim for the head, because then the TTK goes down to a quarter of a second.
