TL;DR: The second round of balance passes to the Mattocks were not deployed to the live server when I thought they were. All testing and footage you see is using the "4 pellet" model.

G'day guys. So, bit of an awkward scenario for me to wakeup to today. So allow me to explain;

When the second round of changes to the MAX suit were originally planned to go live, I decided to hold off all my content on the new Mattocks until that second round hit the servers. Now when that patch did "deploy" I immediately began running some numbers in my TTK formulas and began running tests in game. The results in game captured in the VR training room (which you saw in the video) matched what I worked out on pen and paper, so I wrote that off as accurate and decided to take it to scripting in the video.

As I have been told a few times now, the second round of balance changes to the Mattocks never actually deployed to the live servers, creating a very mixed message behind my latest video. Which leaves me at a crossroads as to whether it should be taken down or not. Unfortunately, the video has already accumalated 3,000 views; and for the most part, there is some "take-away" that still applies to the video. So allow me to clarify some things here:

· As of right now, the AF-34 Mattocks still dish out 4 pellets at 100 damage, and the VR training room tests are results of that damage model.
· Above all else, this proves that the original adjustments that were made were too strong.
· This also suggests that the changes that are coming will help to dial down the MAX's CQC prowess a smidge, and help to really mitigate some of the ranged capabilities we witness as well.

I want to point out that I will be leaving the video up, as my suggestions regarding future balancing decisions for the weapons still sit as my opinions regarding the weapons and their future balance.

Sorry for the confusion guys.
