      Bruh, the article your commenting on is an explanation of what’s going on since the PSN fiasco, you could just read it, since you opened the post anyways.

      However, with that being said, new patch hit and added a bunch of content and balance changes. Discussion of the new content has largely been sidelined by people complaining about the balance changes. Players are frustrated that a meta develops, and then the devs nerf that meta into oblivion because they are trying to prevent “one-size-fits-all” solutions. Another complaint is that it takes far too long to kill enemies unless you are using the exact tool the devs intend you to use. Devs publicly agree that time to kill is excessive at the moment, but don’t believe the solution is just to buff all weapons. They promise to continue working on the balancing to find a happy medium.

      That’s the gist of it based on OPs post at any rate.
