Quote:The recoil of the SMG in 1.0.4 was bad, very baaaaad.But it's good with heavy recoil, because otherwise it kills too fast. Which creates the problems I've been talking about of players getting blindsided by someone they didn't see and not having a chance to do anything about it. I think players should be able to turn around and fight someone, otherwise it's all random luck who gets killed based on who spots who first.
I guess the weapons balance is hard to argue about, since it's more of an issue of opinion, but I still find it odd how I could instantly do far better with a shotgun that I hadn't used in such a long time than with the smg, my normal weapon.
Even if they weapons are all balanced in power, they still kill much too fast. Making players slower + faster killing weapons = a wierd, chaotic feel of gameplay that doesn't really emphasize skill as much.
