OP weaponry?

[NullCult]

I have played for a bit now and I wonder if anyone else think some of the diver weapons are wayy OP, I mean once you get to tier 3-4 weaponry (big ass harpoons and assault rifles) It is basicly game over for the Sharks unless they stomp harrrrd early game. I think this couldd be solved by making weapons less accurate, I mean com on, we are under water and all weapons aim as if they were laser pointers up to 100meter, that is just silly.

[Deadman]

Well idk about the actual range of the weapons but the rifles are real weapons that are designed to be accurate underwater, so I think it stays true to the real thing.

LOLOLOL OP weaponry.

Divers: 30 lives, no wallhacks, lots of darkness to hide sharks, way more vulnerable, less "sprint".
Sharks : 30 lives, wallhacks, insane stamina regen and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ long lunge, barely have to aim with lunge kill, can lunge-kill dudes in a safe place then just kep runing away...

I could go on.

Hmm dunno, I havent lost a single match ever since I got the big harpoon-gun. 1 shot 1 kill. also easy if all divers hurdle in a tight group and shoot anything that moves of grabs someone, just stay in a place where the shark cant grab and skip, but have to turn in order to get out and it´s a sitting duck with person stabbing away 1/4 health of the shark and 3 other dudes with big harpoons and machineguns just blasting it (excuse typos, really tired). Also flare and mine spam.

It's not very hard to avoid divers seeing you and firing their big ass guns so long as they're not spamming sonar buoys or something and that's the point of being a shark. You can't just pull a Leeroy every time you go to attack.

Yeah, it can be hard to snag them while they're grouped up, but cooperation with your fellow shark and planning out your attacks means you're pretty much bound to win unless the tickets are like 20-5.

[EpicBaller]

Good, communicating divers vs good, communicating sharks is actually surprisingly well balanced. Good lone wolf divers vs good lone wolf sharks isn't even a contest though, sharks will wreck.

I really don't think any of the diver stuff needs nerfed, to be sure.

[Copper]

Yeah yeah sure op weaponry, explosive harpoons that cost so much you can only pick'em when you got like a couple of tickets left if you're lucky, mines that pose more danger to divers than sharks, nets that work when they feel like working, bla bla ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bla. Go on, write to developers how overpowered divers are so that they can take it all away. You know what, how about teleporting invisible makos with special ping or bug or whatever the hell this is that doesn't register hits? Or GW with endless health? Or nearly every breakable wall or other obstacles that leaves divers open exposed to attack from almost every direction? I guess that's just fine for sharks, right? Oh, i guess there's an excuse for that: there are only 2 sharks allowed. Heh, ♥♥♥♥.

As a shark I never had any problem with dealing with late game weaponry not hard to avoid harps they have a slow tract

[2PIKACHUNO]

The game is made so that victory already leans to the sharks favor. But when the players start getting better weapons thats when as a player you need to evolve your strategy, attack from above and below. The problem with a lot of shark players is they complain that diver weapons are OP such as the explosive harpoon, get the evolution perk that enables you to see which character has that gun. or stop rushing in from the same side every time. a good shark is an unpredictable one.

There are a few threads where Divers can 'fix' the darkness problem, so that doesn't count. Less sprint? DPV, 'nuff said. Wall Hacks? Plant mines on brakeable walls, problem solved. The game is balanced, so yeah... That being said, I don't think there's OP weaponry for Divers. Sure, a well geared and expereinced group of 4 Divers have a crazy advantage in certain maps, but it's still even if both sharks know what they're doing.

[®omano]

For me sharks are OP..... Never won a single game as a diver.. I mean maybe with bots but against players I never won. I often see sharks who one shot us in a second (a mouse trick/macro maybe??), and things like that, I never noticed OP divers but for sure sharks ARE Over Powered.

Still enjoying a lot the game, even with OP sharks :)

[Akrasia]

i apparently suck as shark... I've lost every game.

Lol at this. I'm aware of the cheapo "visibility maximization" you can do, but that's sort of scummy.
Yeah, the DPV. The near-useless first version that makes you a bigger target farther away from the group, and costs \wastes money. Amazing solution bro :-D.
Oh yeah let's throw money on land mines and hope to god that idiots don't wander into it but sharks do, instead of..you know...dashing through any other entrance, of which there will be 4 at any given time...?

*Someone* is white knighting a bit, methinks.

Check the guides section if you haven't already, there are some helpful hints about how to do well as both shark and diver.

White knight? Mkay. Seems to me someone's just QQing cus he's bad as a diver. You're just looking for excuses tbh. 4 more entrances? Have two people carry 3 mines each. 6 mines total, problem solved. DPV not good enough for you? Get the Magnetic one and you'll get the money back ASAP. The fact that you're bad doesn't mean that Sharks are OPed or the game is imbalanced. If you don't want to fix your settings to see sharks from far away, you're problem, not ours. But like someone else said in another thread "There's a reason most good players fix their settings that way." QQ more <3
