  • @Cabowse <- he has spoken and whenever he speaks you can be sure that at least 50% actually gets converted in a next patch!

    Now you know the damages for next season ppl :P
  • Umm.. Let me Review this...

    My review is in Red - Like a Teacher!

    PISTOLS

    P2020 

    Damage 13 > 14

    -hmm sound okay to me, how about 15

    Re-45

    Damage 11 > 12

    Headshot Multiplier 1.45x - 1.5x

    -I say nerf the damage to 10, and increase the Mag Cap to 30 to help it for-fill it fantasy role as a spray and pray weapon.

    Wingman

    Damage 45 > 40

    Rate of fire 156 RPM > 190 RPM

    Mag sizes 4-6-8-10 > 6-7-8-10

    -The damage can stay the same.You are right the base magazine size has to increase.

    - 4 shots are not enough. how about Mag sizes 6-7-8-9

    - Each mag size increase by 1 bullet, 10 bullets is a little too much, and want make much of a difference as 9.

    - But 9 is a multiple of 3, and is kind in harmony with it being a 6-shooter, but a 9-shooter

    SHOTGUNS

    Peacekeeper

    Ability to turn precision choke on and off.

    Yeass!! - In plankton voice

    Eva 8

    Decrease pellet spread by 20%

    Double tap stacks with shotgun bolt

    Eva 8 is good as is, needs no buff nor mutations

    Mozambique

    Increase mag size to 5

    This a big one for me, because I am a Titanfall 2 Vet. And Still remember the dread a Mozambique imposed on me in Titanfall 2 online and campaign.

    Those burst were deadly!

    I say buff mag size the standard 6 shot mozambique or buff damage to 60.

    Buff both Mag size to 6 and damage to 60 to recreate the terrible little shotgun I feared in Titanfall 2.

    Mastiff

    Keep as is.

    -Yelp perfect

    SMG'S

    Alternator

    Keep as is.

    -Yeah its good

    Prowler

    Keep as is.

    -good

    R99

    Add randomness to recoil and increase by a small amount

    -I would increase magazine capacity to 35 or 40 and nerf the damage way down, to recreate the original R99 the R97

    -This gun wall all about spray a large mag of low damage bullets and a high fire rate.

    - It was all about the van dame, rambo action hero of the 80s and 90s. 

    -Endless ammo and pure spray and pray fun!

    - I would nerf damage 9 or 8 and up the magazine capacity to 36 or 40, so people can spray and pray!

    - Heck I would nerf the damage to 5 and give it a 50 round magazine, just so people could have fun spraying and praying stuff.

    ASSAULT RIFLES

    R-301

    Increase fire-rate of weapon while using Anvil receiver.

    -The anvil receiver is okay, I kinda think its redundant, in that it turns your R301 into a G7.

    - The fire rate does not need change and is just as Op as the G7 in the right hands.

    - I would just increase the magazine capacity to 32, to increase the damage per magazine to being on par with weapons like the Flatline, Havoc, and Hemlock

    - It doesn't make much sense that the R301 is the lowest damage assault rifle with the smallest magazine capacity.

    - It not kinda silly, it just doesn't make any sense.

    Flatline

    Keep as is.

    Its okay, but I would nerf the damage to 18 to adjust for power creep.-

    But either way is okay. 

    HAVOK

    Single fire now leeches shields when hitting an enemy with shields.

    Headshot multiplier 2x > 1.75x

    - All assault rifles should have a 2x headshot multiplier,

    - Select fire could be reworked as a tickrate laser.

    Hemlok 

    Headshot Multiplier 2x > 1.75x

    -Headshot Multiplier should be 2x because it an assault rifle and it fires heavy ammo.

    -Just decrease the damage to 20 and reduce magazine capacity to 24,

    -that way respawn could add full auto and the Hemlock would not be broken.

    -A full auto assault rifle dealing 20 damage, and mag cap of 24 it not so bad.

    -I would like the see the Hemlock become Apex version of the G3A3

    -It would be nice to see, a slow hard hitting full Auto assault rifle.

    -1 that border lines a marksman's rifle, I feel a full auto Hemlock could fill this role.

    -The role the G3A3, served in  Battlefield" Bad Company 2.

    SNIPER RIFLES

    Charge rifle

    Magazine 12 > 15

    -No change, the charge rifle is in a good place.

    -Any changes will make it OP again or worthless.

    Longbow

    RPM 86 > 100

    -No fire rate increase

    -Naw, just keep it the same. Respawn increased the firerate of the Longbow before to disaterious results!

    -Remember Season 2 Longbow, It was so overpowered, Everyone used it and ranked and it was a nightmare!

    -No changes to the Longbow!

    -No mutations

    Triple Take

    Ability to turn Precision choke on and off

    Yeah, I agree. Toggleable choke.

    G7 Scout

    Damage 34 - 32

    Headshot Multiplier 2x - 1.75x

    Magazine size 10-15-18-20 > 8-12-14-16

    Recoil reduced

    Rarity increased

    - Again, No mutations!

    - Just revert it to it original self. Damage 30.

    - I mained the G7 in Season 1, and 2. It was good then and didn't need a buff.

    - In Season 2, we asked for a buff to the G7 because it could not keep up with

    - the Season 2 Longbow, but since the Longbow was reverted back then G7 can be reverted to its season 2 self.

    Kraber

    Can stay scoped in while performing bolt action.

    - It FPS tradition to make bolt action rifles scope out while using high powered rifles,

    - its a way to keep the weapon from becoming too Op and forcing the user to use some skill.

    - So... No change.

    LMG'S

    Devotion

    Recoil less jumpy when starting fire.

    Damage 17 > 16

    Recoil pattern less sporadic.

    -I agree with the damage nerf

    -Recoil pattern is okay,

    -It just need a reload time increase, to stop noobs from being able to spam it.

    Spitfire

    Keep as is.

    -Spitfire is okay.

    - I would like to see its magazine size increased back to 60 or 65, at the cost of a longer reload.

    - A 6 or 7 second reload would be a nice way to justify a larger magazine capacity.

    L-Star

    L-Star only overheats, still has 120 shots but does not need to be reloaded intermittently. 

    Impending overheat noise more apparent.

    30 consecutive shots before overheat.

    Overheat lasts 0.8 seconds longer.

    Hip-fire accuracy increased by 30%.

    -Yeah, it just need reloads removed, and only overheats.

    -30 round to overheat is okay, kinda on the safe side, I would like to see 40 to push more into the LMG category
