You don't play pubs much I see...
Haha. You completely misunderstood my post, and I mean COMPLETELY.
Where did I talk about the AR, I am not interested about it's values at the moment, nor its balance. What I'm more interested in is the progress of public players. I scour games everyday looking for good players, I am always interested in how they play - and yes I do play a lot of pubs, admittedly under alias - but I do.
I can honestly say that there are not any active public players that look like they will amount to much, I mean Vanquish, Spirit and yopa are good. I've seen some other nicks but they haven't really stuck in my head. The real issue for me is how involved publics are getting, so what if they are actively coming back to play more in the game - they're not seeking out clans, or TRYING to improve. And they're not trying, because they don't have to. Left Click -> Splatter. Done and dusted.
If you think public games haven't stagnated then wow, don't you remember 1.0.4, I mean yeah sure. Hi-Skill had a lot to do with clan players playing public games. But publics won't improve by playing with other bad players, they need good players to play with them - and they need to be more interested in the game. Which they clearly aren't. Sometimes it feels like I am playing with bots, 10v10, no talks or says anything. They just run around. . .
As for AR, I agree needs to be nerf'ed a little, and a more powerful sniper would be great to see also.
