The main problem is that they blatantly used an aimbot at some point in that video. The NJ5 looks ridiculously OP of course, just like its younger brother. Main issue is, why did the raider get an update even though it is already the most OP class in the game? Seems to me it is amount of players using a class that brings the updates. since all the kiddies and comp players "main" raider.

Raider update, you got to be kidding me..." Watched the video and my first two thoughts were: "Why play Soldier now?" and "OP". Raider didn't need any new weapons Soldier/Brute need them... Raider now has 3 Special Grenades, while Soldier has only Anti-Armor and Anti-Infantry... Soldier has AR as primary, Raider has 2 better SMGs as secondary. And Plasma looks like a fast firing Spinfusor... And the new SMG can fire while scoped. Really disappointed (again) by this patch.

Inf was probably not very profitable for the devs so they got the first buff. I don't really see that many raiders out there compared to other classes so it makes sense that they where next. I would be surprised if the next class for buffing is not sentinel and boy will that suck the big hairy donkey balls. So what about the brute? People are spending cash on that class, I guess for trying out its hit-scan gun so no need to buff it yet.
