It's actually a good thing subs and specials are locked.

Otherwise we would have to deal with splatbomb bubbler chargers. That makes me shiffer.

Or burst bomb everything. Which would extremely accelerate the current damage/defense meta

What if subs balanced themselves depending on the main weapon they are loaded with? Actually, I guess it would complicate things more.

I once entertained the idea that every weapon should be able to choose either their set sub or burst bombs, but I quickly realized just how tragic that would be.

game balancing would be more difficult, and the subs and specials, themselves, would probably be nerfed further to prevent "op combos".

I'm glad for the set sub and specials on weapons. As everyone has already pointed out, the game would be full of people using overpowered combinations. It also gives people an incentive to try out more weapons and see what they like.

As snipers have shown, you don't actually need a primary weapon. All you need is burst bombs....

I'm actually glad that subs are locked because burst bombs on everything would be soo annoying.
