I had a dream this night about me playing BW with a regular pistol in one hand and a water handgun in another :)) The water handgun didn't deal any damage by itself but it was capable of jamming enemy weapons with a couple of shots and increased damage dealt by electricity.
So, here's an idea of a new weapon if you need one.
I think it might also obscure the target's view with some kind of a moving transparent water texture and maybe work as a weak fire extinguisher.

In before "CX61 is a Super Soaker" commentary is revived.

Weapon jamming isn't much fun to make work, especially on rapid fire weapons, due to latency.

Something that does 0 dmg, targetted stream, and can stop someone from firing would be interesting.

It would be similar to how HMC stopped you from retaliating, but you don't die to it.

For a few seconds, and you will need at least 3 shots to do it. Something like that.
Anyway, I'm just suggesting some random ideas.

I just love the idea of flooding people with water in a deathmatch with regular weapons :) Also, IIRC you mentioned a problem with sidearms not being used - and this is an example of a weak support weapon which can only be used in combination with something else.

Try dual wielding and then say they are useless (don't use the a42 though, that's just spam)

Nonsense.
MD24's, A42's, D49's in some gametypes (freon, jailbreak, conflict), and MR-DR88's especially are all quite dangerous akimbo.

Entitled to your opinion and I won't think less of you for that.

I have no had any success using dual wield with any sidearm, however.
