A73 Skrith Rifle

Melee hits for 220
Has no auto melee fire

XMV-850 Minigun

Holds 100 rounds instead of 150

General

Fixed a serious issue which resulted in high ping players having no recoil at all with certain weapons when View Decline was disabled.

The BW servers keeps crashing persistenlty over and over due to bug in Weapon code (hotfixed by reverting back to 24/11/2012 version).

Edit: Got it, ModeHoldFire and ModeDoFire were removed from auto melee fire without total recompilation.

Hmm, with 100 hundred ammo, the Minigun is fine. Depends a lot on having a team backup for regaining health lost in front lines now as overspam isn't possible (killing many ppl with it in a row w/o releasing the fire, eventhough good % of the time is aimed at wall coz enemy is hidden, cleaning the area). Also I haven't found myself much into deploying it, except some map based occasions.

General
