(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I originally posted this on the official COD BO2 forums, thought I'd post it here as well to see what you guys think.

I see people complaining all the time about things being way to powerful but they're the people that just suck at the game. The game is very balanced except for the exception of a couple of things.

The EMP grenade: Its meant to take out small killstreaks, so don't complain about your sentry gun, gaurdian being EMP'd run high killstreaks, and you won't have to be worried about them being taken out as easily.

Now what needs to be nerfed about the EMP grenade is the lasting affects it has on the hud.. its lasts way too long. I find EMP grenades being more devastating then shocks, flashes, and concussions. They aren't meant to replace stuns but now people use them as flashbangs simply because it lasts a very long time on the enemy's hud and in the long run does more damage because players rely on their radar too much. Specially for those like me who run high killstreaks then getting EMP'd and anware of enemies near you I often die when Im a kill or two off from a high streak.

The infamous target finder: Gives shitty players a better advantage not to mention everyone having them on their LMG's and just sitting back and taking out the whole enemy team. Don't get me wrong thats what LMG's are for but the target finder makes LMG's even more powerful. My suggestion would be to not put the dot right on the enemy but close to them or slightly on them so you can actually be aware that they are there but not be as accurate while shooting them. So in all it lives up to its name and helps you find them and giving you slight advantage but not having the dot right on them.

Shotguns: They're perfect the way they are. In real life you don't get "hitmarkers" with shotguns. They are how they are suppose to be, deadly up close, shitty at a distance.

Ballista: The only sniper that could use some more damage, but nonetheless I see people time to time doing very good with it.

SMG's: They're perfect the way they are, and the last nerf was enough. They don't need to be nerfed anymore.

AR's: They're perfect the way they are aswell, people complain about SMG's being more powerful then AR's which is not true but the reason is its simply treyarchs fault for making the maps so small giving SMG's the advantage.

Bouncing Betty. Pretty irritating when the damn thing goes off 20 feet away from me and it still kills me. Going prone works, burp some people ante up with the shock charge Not Happy or Sad really the only t
hing that pisses me off

I agree with the emps, they are ridiculous. They do seem more powerful than stuns/flashes. They could possibly make the target finder cover up the mini map if it is too op.

I don't know why the last couple people who posted were bitching about betties, they are SOO easy to dodge. All you have to do is crouch and you won't die to it(provided it is on a level surface, nonlevel surfaces might require you to go prone).

Pistols need nerfing, especially that god damn KAP40. If you want an SMG as a secondary you should be using overkill, you shouldn't be able to just pick a pistol and have it work the same way.

"Shotguns: They're perfect the way they are. In real life you don't get "hitmarkers" with shotguns. They are how they are suppose to be, deadly up close, shitty at a distance."

People need to stop propagating this false information. Shotguns in real life are not "shitty at a distance."

Concussions, flashes and EMP grenades all last too long as well. Make their duration as much as the shock charge. I can't stand being killed by shit players because they spam concussions constantly before running in to kill me as I can't even move. Literally when concussion grenaded with my mouse on highest DPI settings I barely turn 2 degrees in 5 seconds. Completely unable to defend myself unless I was already looking in the direction they are coming from.

Cake is a lie
Nothing really.

I will say the funniest thing about Target Finder users is that majority of the time they STILL GO NEGATIVE.

I have picked up some off the ground and the shit reduces visual recoil, gives you a big red crosshair, puts a chopper gunner diamond around enemy, has arrows on the side pointing at enemy and even with Cold Blooded it fucking beeps when someone is in your HDTV sight.

How people get owned using something that powerful shows how terrible most of it's users truly are.

EMP grenades last too long but honestly everything could stay like it is.
