I swear, they really are. Back in MFB launcher wear wasn't really a factor, but apparently in Burst this isn't the case.
I mean, you can't even choose ripcords over strings to avoid breakage from pulling too hard because the gears apparently wear out too fast. Both my Diabolos and Dragon launchers only lasted a week until they started skipping gears(and I don't even click my launchers), which made them almost unusable. And don't get me started on any string launcher. Even if you were lucky enough to not have the spring inside the main gear of your launcher snap in half in a month's worth of usage, you'll have to worry about the string's outer layer being torn apart instead due to the repeated grinding of the cloth with the metal ring, which would cause your launcher to get stuck anyway.
So yeah, in short. Burst launchers suck.
