@Sohsuh Working properly by the standard of players who prefer to not use any skill within the tactics department - working properly to the players who want to be able to run and gun without thinking.
Aka, APEX Legend players.
This is a different kind of game, where you need more than just mindless run and gun.
The pp29 is used by almost every player in every lobby - with maybe the SVK as well.
It's not because the gun is a representation of your skill, it's representation of who is desperate to get the easiest kills in the game.
