The game mode was a joke to begin with, originally making it near impossible to kill infected with anything except a ton of people teaming up on one, and usually needing a spec to actually do it. Now, it is arguably more fair, but even then, you have rediculous advantages to the point where if you don't pay, your chances of winning are slim. If you need to pay to play a game mode, it's a mark of sheer terribleness. Melee is much the same. It's whoever pays for the best gear and best melee. With guns, there is more of a grey area, so it's hard to pinpoint 1 best gun, but in melee, most NX stuff just outclasses GP stuff any day. That is why I refuse to play anything besides Elim, since people can't really pay2win in that except for Specs (GP is just as bad, dont give me bs about it) and assassins.
