Weapon Balance and Gameplay Discussion
#80
I'm convinced the sniper is fine as it is, but I do have a couple of good reasons to give it its extra +5 damage back:

1)Smaller head hitbox - takes more skill to actually pull a headshot, making it a more challenging weapon
2)Helmets - with armour now being abundant, even with the extra damage pulling a kill with only 1 pistol shot is a lot less likely

...so basically reasons that you've all heard a million times, but I think these are really important points.

Also, was the nade damage reduced as well? They do feel weaker... combined with that AND only 1 nade per pickup AND longer spawn time they feel pretty useless now. I would recommend bring back the old damage and spawn time, but keep 1 nade per pickup and carry capacity of 3.

EDIT: Also, can the nades finally be fixed so they don't bounce off people?
