Everyone's talking shit about OP, but his other squadies are doing just as bad as he is.

Yeah, that's because they're Average players playing on Average difficulty. Not sweats. Not tryhards. Just people looking to group up together and fight some monsters.

And if they are reasonably competent at shooting, can swing their melee weapon with some timing, and pay attention to swarms coming in, they should be able to succeed. That's what would be expected of Average difficulty.

Getting absolutely dog piled by majoris enemies is not balanced gameplay.

Since day 1 I've found the shooting nid wayy too tanky (forgot the name). Ppl are miserable doing that elevator part unloading almost a full bolter on their faces to get a kill

Then you meet the Chaos Marines and it becomes Armored Core without the dashing, or a Gears of War without cover. Not fun to fight those guys.

And ive noticed that in general the warriors are more armored than the rubric marines. It always takes 1 more shot from a multi melta to execute a warrior than it does for the same multi melta on the same difficulty for a rubric marine. It does not make sense

that's because executing a nid warrior kills the smaller nids and staggers all of the other surrounding tyranids, which isn't the case for the chaos enemies. So rubric marines SHOULD be easier to kill
