Weapon Balance
Let's talk guns. Anyone miss S1 R301? I sure do. Was wondering what other changes people might miss / want for their personal favorite weapons.
Reverts:
-R301 back to its old S1 state.
-R99 back to its old S1 state.
-Hemlok back to its old S1 state.
Snipers:
-Increased ammo capacity from 16 to 28 per stack.
-Removal of extended mags entirely.
-All snipers come stock with 2x optic.
-Marginally increased projectile velocity across the board.
-Triple Take stock with choke, hold down fire button to tighten spread, let go to fire.
-G7 reinstated as a sniper rifle, 30 damage per shot, 50 for headshots, 25 for legs, RPM lowered to 200 (roughly twice as fast as Longbow still).
SMGs:
-Prowler stock with select fire, removal of random recoil, level 3 heavy extended dropped to 30 rounds per mag, RPM dropped to 750.
-Alternator new functionality, fire both barrels at once, toggled on and off. Dramatically increased vertical recoil, slightly lower fire-rate, hip-fire becomes like R99 / Prowler while enabled.
Pistols:
-No changes to Wingman.
-P2020 stock with Hammerpoint, damage decreased to 25 per shot, per shot projectile velocity increased, magazine size decreased to 10/12/14/16. Base damage unchanged.
-RE-45 stock with Disruptor, shield damage decreased to 18 (1.5 instead of 1.7 modifier), base damage unchanged, magazine size increased to 20/22/24/26
Shotguns:
-No change to PK.
-Mastiff projectile velocity increased marginally. No changes to spread.
-Mozambique projectile velocity increased marginally. Marginally tighter spread. Stock with Hammerpoint, damage vs. flesh decreased to 30 per pellet, base damage unchanged.
-EVA gets full auto functionality. Full auto has the same behavior as other hip-fired weapons.
Edit:
Hop-Ups:
-Removal of all extraneous RNG. AKA, removal of ALL hop-ups.
-R301 + Flatline receive Anvil Reciever by default, damage reduced, removal of increased ammo consumption.
-Wingman / Longbow retain their 2x headshot multiplier.
-Havoc gets...uhm. Something. Does anyone actually use semi-auto on Havoc?
-G7 gets Double-Tap stock, shorter interval between 2 rounds in a burst, longer interval between each burst.
