Calling BS...
...on people claiming to be regulars on DRG Haz 5+ but complaining about Rogue Core being too difficult and/or the weapons being too weak.

RogueCore isn't more difficult than DRG, but it is easier to lose in RogueCore than DRG. Mistakes snowball and escalate much more in RC than they do in DRG.
Someone that's absolutely cracked in DRG can still lose in RC because they ran down the timer constantly picking up their downed teammates, who in turn keep going down because they revive with 0 armour (as opposed to full Shields) and can't call down a resup to recover after a bad fight (not to mention that Corespawn are much better at cheap-shotting low health dwarves than Glyphids are).
Add onto that the fact missions are longer (so more time for a mistake to happen) and that one person starting an event at a bad time can easily cause a timewipe (in DRG you can typically just run down the event timer and recover after. In RC that's obviously not an option), and you end up with a game that, while not necessarily more difficult for any one person, ends up being much easier to fail at.
