:D I think is just fine... the hipfire/nonhipfire did not make too much difference to me =.
But there was a lot of balance now (; .. was super fun...

I've not noticed that much difference, but then I use Iron Sights as often as possible - I couldn't hit much with hipfire before the change anyway (!)

Has it actually caused players who spray bullet weps to use sights more often, or merely pushed them to use even more grenades/acid/longhorn instead? I don't think we want that either.

What happened to the Plasma Canon? Couldn't find it in the weapon List!!! :(

Poor M290 Shotgun, who will use a KS2 shotgun (3 shots) when you may select a LAW? Maybe in close combat maps, but wait, you may just leave a LAW mine in the room and kill everyone around!!! O=

The Plasma Cannon was cut entirely.

The M290's actually considered very strong at KS2.

Plasma would be great at KS2 with half the damage and half the reserve ammo.

Would be 3 shots for a kill which is no way OP.

Sry reviving discussion about the new weapons...
Just realised playing BW lost its magic for me because of longhorn and mars mines. Im not a good player, being killed often, but I didnt mind that till these two weps came out. It was never so frustrating like being killed by faggots previously using acid gun spamming around with longhorn and randomly placing mars mines around the map (not talking bout you, Aza). I enjoyed playing BW for learning from more skilled players and knew what they've done well to kill me, or what was really my fault - explosive clusters everywhere are just killing all the fun.
I dont understand the point of it - was it made for unskilled players who cant aim well to bring them some frags?? Think it should definitelly be a KS weapon, at least for reducing the number of players using it...

Hope there are more people with the same opinion which want play for fun and for learn something new, not just spamming around. :roll:

The Longhorn secondary makes some sense with Iron sights, but i see players just standing somewhere firing whole magazine randomized to the floor or around and be like ( im sure i will kill someone) fuck_yeah

Acid gun is cool, primary is a good shot if u hit, not spamming it, secondary can help u if someone comes towards u or someone wants to thaw.

But i totally share your opinion with the Longhorn.

The Mars Mine u hear and see ur hp drops..run away ^^

I too agree that MARS grenades and Longhorn are a little 'popular' at the moment.

It may just be because they are new. Give it a week or so to see if it dies down before any rash decision is made.

dk in particular made me roffle yesterday, complaining about MARS spam but he's usually the one throwing them at me.
