'winners winning more' scenarios

KS1 is fine, but on the rare occasions I've ended up with a ridiculously high net score it is always because I've strung together multiple KS2s.

Given that KS2s do make killing significantly easier, I would suggest that kills made between claiming a KS2 and dying should not count toward further killstreaks. Alternatively, once a KS2 is claimed, double the kills required to get a further KS1+2 or something.

If the gap between the best and worst players is too large, it means the worst are spending too long frozen, probably bored, and at risk of leaving. It's a difficult balance, I know.

Given that KS2s do make killing significantly easier, I would suggest that kills made between claiming a KS2 and dying should not count toward further killstreaks.

That part is actually the case now. If you earn a KS2 and claim it right away, you cannot start earning credit to another until you die.

The problem is that you can game it by waiting till you have a KS2 credit, dying, then claiming it. This will allow kills made with the KS2 weapon to contribute to the next KS chain.

I am unsure if this is intended behaviour.

Killing 2-3 people is fine for a bonus weapon. That's a quarter of the other team single handedly.

You don't kill them in addition to the amount you kill with other weapons, you use the Golden Pistol instead of them. I can kill more with mk781 or FS. Mk781 by the way kills pretty much as effective as the GP does - 2 fully landed shots per kill. And it also blinds, resupplies on kill and allows you to shoot without aiming at close range very effectively. Bulldog kills in 2 shots (1 if headshot) and has grenades (!). Deermaster works pretty much the same way GP does. Yes, Golden pistol is slightly better. But my opinion is that it's not that awesome to have only one extra magazine. That's what I wanted to say.

The KS2 train has reached its last stop.

Golden Pistol is also viable at range, where as your MK781 is not :p

I guess it was not intended behaviour. RIP

Put longhorn to ks1? then the damage can stay as it is.

[Rymosrac]

M75 Railgun
Is now semi-automatic with a fire interval of 0.9 seconds (1.5 on alt).

Haven't checked yet, but if this is the case, can the scope zoom stay in place now, instead of unzooming after each shot please.
