So lets say you’re not a modder, what do you do if it quits working, you can’t return it, don’t want to throw it away and want to keep using it? Well chances are, you’re probably going to try to open it and fix it. This is very bad because it doesn’t matter if you’re a modder or just an average Nerfer, you’re going to be putting pressure on all these components in normal play quite a lot and since they’re weaker, they’re going to wear out a lot faster and eventually, your blaster will become inoperable. Not only have they made them difficult to get into, but they have ditched using metal springs for things like the trigger, catch, and magazine release, and started using what people have been calling “leaf springs”, which are literally just plastic tabs made to push said part forward and are much weaker. Again, I’m not very active so maybe I’m missing the bigger picture here, but from my position it looks like business as usual for Nerf right now and they’re doing just fine.Ĭlick to expand.I’m aware it isn’t aimed at modders, but with what they have done with the Elite 2.0 line, it doesn’t matter if you’re a modder or just some kid that wants to shoot darts, it’s bad for both sides. There’s been plenty of good stuff from Nerf this year (mainly the Halo AR) and the problems people are complaining about (outside of Ultra) are all outside of the target market of these products. the only wars I’ve ever attended) and your blaster had an M4 buffer tube on the back, politely show yourself the door. If you ever show up to a war where everyone else is using stock Nerf blasters (i.e. Again, the target market for Nerf isn’t shopping for that kind of thing, so if you want your Nerf to be more like Airsoft, Hasbro made a thing for you and it’s called Rival. Then this Walmart value brand Dart Zone or whatever they’re called have been making these ludicrously hard-hitting orange Airsoft-looking blasters that aren’t suitable for shooting indoors at things, your friends, or small children, and now everyone’s saying Nerf is dead and you should be buying those now. I don’t see why it’s a big deal to your average consumer. I also heard all of those blasters are welded together now, but Nerf’s target market is children, not 30-something year old men in their garages using industrial tools to alter said children’s toys. If I didn’t have a Rapidstrike or it ends up breaking, I’d probably buy a Turbine to replace it. Also the yellow Dart Tag relaunch was a flop. I remember having to read case studies in school about how Rebelle was sexist. But Nerf’s had plenty of unsuccessful lines over the years. I’m aware Ultra was.a thing that happened and people don’t like to talk about that.
My old Rapidstrike has been dethroned for shooting random things around the house now. The build quality is excellent, it’s reliable, it shoots hard compared to my old yellow stuff and it looks accurate to the games. My MA40 came in the mail and it’s probably the best dart blaster I’ve ever held in my hands. I’m very curious as to why you think Nerf is having one of their worst years.
