The Default Rifle In Anthem Deals More Damage Than Some Of The End Game Loot

It’s pretty evident for Anthem that the longer the game is in public hands, fans on the game continue to discover more game breaking bugs that further devalue the title as we reach the third week since the games released. The most recent issue that one player discovered is that regardless of if you dodge all problems that are affecting most players and grind the game for good loot, it doesn’t compare to the default rifle given at the start of the game.

Specifically the Defender Rifle players receive as a starter weapon, user YeetLordSupreme reported on Reddit that despite the amount of damage that is displayed when shooting enemies are disregarded when actually comparing to his level 45 masterwork Ralner’s Blade Rifle.

You can view the example with the GIF the user paired with their Reddit post:

In response to the report, BioWare Technical Design Director Brenon Holmes commented that “This is not intended, something ain’t right here.” Along with the game’s Community Manager following up on Holmes comment on the thread reassuring that this problem is unintentional and will be fixed in the upcoming client patch.

The most recent problem that users on primarily PlayStation 4 face is the game overworking the system’s hardware and results with the console shutting off and unable to power on after crashing.

Read up on Rectify Gaming’s review of Anthem where our own David Rodriguez tells that the game’s “Average gunplay and a lack of visual customization don’t prevent Anthem from being a great time.”

Anthem is available now for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.
