Please watch Respawn: R97 - R99 Rework, Xbox Ahoy.
I have been watching some Ahoy video and was surprised to come across Some Titanfall 1 Videos.
The R99 is of big complaint and need a nerf.
But I feel their are some traits of the R99 that are now Iconic.
Like:
The high firerate 1060
The low damage. 9 or 7 or 5
Large magazine capacity. 36, 40, 50
Superior Hipfire.
By watching this video, I now know how to fix the R99.
Just lower the base damage to 9, 7, and 5.
9 damage to 9 meters
7 damage to 17 meters.
5 damage to 20 meters.
Magazine Capacity:
Base 24
Level 1 27
Level 2 33
Level 3 36
I believe a mag capacity of 40 or 50
would be too much for multiplayer but would be okay for campaign.
Tight hip-fire.
Low actual recoil.
Low ads recoil, their is no reason to have high recoil with the low damage.
