[@rocksolidhope]

Well said!

[@Grebogoborp]

I would say that the balance needs some tuning but balance tuning is expected considering it’s both early on in the games lifespan and it’s still in early access a couple guns need nerfs a couple need buffs some attachments need to be changed a bit and most importantly squad leader assault and support need some buffs probably just some passive tweaks (maybe make assault run faster so it’s the de facto rushing class and give squad leader access to all weapon types or something) and more utility will solve the issue and for support the major problem is just weapon selection being quite limited and exo armor being one time use per life

[@S1n1st3r0n3]

You usually sound like you are having so much fun while playing any game. But when you play Battlebit, you sound especially happy.

[@frug5629]

It's a good time, but it does have it's share of aggravation. Mostly with balance. The one thing I don't like is the dev's stubborn attitude with the Vector. He tends to hand wave the criticism as 'skill issue' when it does have a legitimate problem.
