Could we try to stay .. somehwat .. on-topic?!
I know, basically you guys have a lot of fun just chit-chatting away - but this thread is meant as a serious discussion - and more importantly reference - for developers to gauge the viability of the gruelsome, ephemeral and illusive prospect of a balanced weapon-set.
Even though we know, and acknowledge, that some players play one weapon exclusively this does not deterr us from the vision of a game in which each weapon has at least the basic chance of being balanced against any other. Please remember, we're not aiming at realism, but at a fun game. If you want realism - join a live army, go to war and get your ass blown to bits by an enemy who laid down mines decades ago and probably had their legs torn off by their then-enemy almost just the day after.
