Bigger characters hip-fire ADS/size balance ideas
Now I've been thinking for a while about what the best way to balance bigger characters like Gibraltar & Caustic with other smaller characters like Wraith & Lifeline.
I think it's important that speed of all characters remains the same as it's a vital part of keeping teams together, so I didn't even consider that for this balance.
One thing that has always bugged me is that a character like Wraith can run around with a weapon like a spitfire or devotion and hip-fire with deadly accuracy. It would make sense that bigger characters like Gibraltar & Caustic would have this advantage when it came to bigger and heavier guns.
So my idea has been that each character would have a strength rating and that would would affect hip-fire accuracy & ADS recoil depending on the weight of the weapon. For smaller weapons like the RE-45 or the R99 there would be practically no change between all characters. For weapons like the Longbow, Devotion & Spitfire the difference would be a lot more noticeable.
The question at that point is how you display weapon weight stats or whether you make it more of a hidden stat, to save people from trying to work things out on the fly.
I hope this idea connects with people and i'd love to hear any additional ideas that people may have in regards to it.
