Too ammo costly, takes longer to wind up, doesn't always one-shot large demons and slows you right down when the game keeps trying to face fuck you with Serious Sam style run and gun.

I'd say the SSG was pretty well-balanced in DOOM, given that you had to be in point-blank range to actually do any decent damage with it.
If you're good at maneuvering, it's a jack of all trades, but it's not good for every situation.

I actually used the anit geth weapons, they seem pretty much effective against everything.

Assault rifle sounds like a fucking hammer and your entire group with them is just so damn op.

Still its nice to have backups, like the arc pistol and works like a charm for multiplayer.

Challenge is only incidental to worthwhile goals. Goals that aren't worthwhile are frequently very challenging, such as learning to do an upside down handstand while juggling with your feet.

Challenge for its own sake is pointless. That being said, accomplishing real goals will typically be challenging, such as reaching the top bracket in CS:GO or whatever. Randomly doing pointless tasks for the sake of a 'challenge' is an evolutionary dead end known as autism.

>>338280205
No way, shot placement is still vitally important, and keeping a pistol with you means you get less other rounds.
If you had posted the RE4 knife, I'd agree.

i quit csgo a year ago after reaching ge because i didnt want to pay esea and free ones were shit, dont know or care how it is now, the game itself was shit regardless

>>338280681
I feel like both handguns were OP in their own right. 10mm is the perfect anti human weapon while the revolver shreds even the largest mechs apart in 3 shots.
Also, they are surprisingly (as if it wasn't intentional) similar to the handguns used by two different street samurai in Neuromancer and Count Zero.
>>
>>338282658
It wasn't as good as 1.6. and ESEA was bad the moment csgo released.
>>
>>338282609
The red9 trivializes the sniper riffle, the knife and the need for handgun ammo.
Only place I can think the riffle would be vital is when the Regenerators start appearing, but that's it.
>>
>>338282082
I haven't played the new DOOM but that's the way it's supposed to be in the older games. The regular shotgun is already great so another barrel will really fuck shit up but since you can only carry 50 shells or 100 with the backpack it makes you either need to use it a bit more situationally or scavenge for ammo packs throughout the level so maybe without the limitations of those two things its kind of OP.
>>
>>338282864
>trivializes the knife
How? A weapon that immediately caused recoil stun in the target spots,hit multiple enemies from outside their melee distance, and allowed you to easily escape what would be a lethal situation or turn around into invulnerable attack.
Naw, man, knife made the game a cinch. Were it not for bosses and a handful of enemies/situation,you could reasonably get thru the game with the knife alone, and it has been done repeatedly.
>>
>>338282707
I just finished reading Neuromancer and I don't recall any special 10mm pistol described in it. The Fletcher was the only gun Molly ever used.
>>
>>338280897
only 9mm lol
>>
SSG isn't OP in D2 at all, it's pretty much a worse RL with more common ammo that you can use in melee.
>>
>>338280738
>WHY does it have a stock?
A lot of early handguns did that, turned them into essentially low powered semi-auto carbines. Actual semi-auto rifles were very rare (or non-existent) and cumbersome, so it kinda made sense I guess.

But it's not. Its a schnellphur 712
Is china at the beginning of the 20th century, it was difficult to import guns, so manufacturers sold lots pistols to the Chinese. Spanish companies started making select fire copies of the c96, so by 1934 Mauser also made their own selectfire pistol. Only about 100,000 official Mauser 712s were made, the majority in China.
