my biggest issue was the bullet sponging and totally unbalanced combat, youd either be a god that couldnt die or someone who has to land 50 headshots with a sniper rifle to kill someone

Well, your biggest issue is easily fixed by adjusting the difficulty...

I started playing again for 2.0 on hard, and most enemies went down with a single sniper headshot. The ones who didnt were the ones where they had a split health bar, so it was easy to tell if it would.

play on too easy a difficultly and ai gets dumb as bricks and you become god, the problem is balancing.

I mean, hard isn't low difficulty...

I haven't tried the hardest, but I doubt normal enemies take more than two headshots with a sniper.

enemies routinely could take entire mags of sniper shots if rheyre levels above you / would dke to a pistol to fhe foot if they werr levels below you. youre either god or a balloon and it breaks combat. enemies with infinite hp isnt 'challenging' the way you want it to be, it's 'challenging' like a a 1000 question 12 times tables test

For someone asking about the current state of a game...

Why are you telling people who have played the new version they're wrong and keep talking about the old one?

Like seriously, what the fuck are you even doing?

Quick edit:

Actually, fuck it, no idea why I'm trying to help you
