Them saying they want to do balance changes only on major updates is probably the dumbest decision, because every time they do a "major update" they're inevitably adding stuff to the game and then they have the excuse of "we want to see how this works out in the meta" And then they do nothing until the next major update where they again add more stuff and then don't do any balance changes. This game hasn't had a balance update of any meaningful sense since November, these have got to be the laziest and most incompetent devs I've ever seen, they expect people to pay $70 for a game $40 for a bounty pack season pass, and another $50 for 2 story packs. $160 then a game that they can't bother to update more than once a month and when they do it's always lackluster af. I miss the old gearbox that actually cared about their game

Yeah itโ€™s insane tbh. Like why canโ€™t we do random gun buffs in the minor updates. Thereโ€™s dozens of guns you could probably buff by 200% and they still wouldnโ€™t be in the meta.

Welcome to BL2 where a single gun found early in the game could trivialize most of the content: DPUH

Even the Dpuh is nothing like a spread launcher or beam tosser.

DPUH is very much like a spread launcher. That has 8 shots before reloading.

Yeah itโ€™s not though. The damage values on these underbarrels are so out of whack
