I've been casually enjoying the update. The nerf to the incindiary breaker was unexpected, but as a guy with an ammo pack, it didn't matter much.

Mega hives and difficulty 10 in general are hectic and hilarious. Honestly it feels like it's been awhile since the reinforcement stock dropped below 10 for me. Actually having a challenge after players have gotten good is refreshing.

The flame nerf is understandable considering they released a primary and secondary flame launcher. Imagine a secondary just melting charger in seconds. That's what would have happened had they not changed the flames to glance off heavier armors.

One of my friends who got back into the game specifically for this update has gone straight into being a fire elemental. Believe me when I say that he doesn't care even a little about flames only burn soft bits. Being near him is hard though as the floor is always lava.
