So, in this patch, Arrowhead mixed things up and made widely unpopular changes and also nerfed the players again.

A few examples:

• Increased the health of all Exosuits by a minimal degree, while also making them more vulnerable to acid attacks
• Cancelled out the buffs for Exosuits by buffing the durable damage of even more enemies, tripling down on the horrible enemy damage changes from the previous major patch. This also serves as another shadow nerf to the Bastion, FRV, and all Sentry Turrets.
• Added stagger to Exosuits
• Hive Guard heads are now heavy armor (AP4), further narrowing build diversity

There will likely be several undocumented changes that negatively affect the player as well. Arrowhead has consistently proven to act poorly whenever the opportunity to do better arises.

Arrowhead clearly has zero intention of doing better. They were dragged kicking and screaming by Sony into making the concessions of the 63-Day-Patch, and have been working to reverse those changes since.

No lessons were learned in the past, and the studio's busted "vision" for this game will be the end of it.

My expectations for this patch were low, but holy hell.

This is Escalation of Freedom all over again.
