Upcoming Release Balance Discussion (SVN)
I think it's alot harder to rate balance now with sniper vs AR and SMG since there was a bug which mostly only affected AR and SMG. For that reason, I'm going to wait for the improved hit registration before commenting on balance any more. I have a feeling that the balance may work out very well then, since every weapon will be effectively quicker to kill than before: sniper with one less pistol shot, AR and SMG with full hit registration, shotgun with improved consistency.

I think you're spot on the reaction times there. Some members in legacy tested their reaction times a while back and none of us could manage under 180 although a few, such as Sepehr, got close. For instance, my reaction time this morning is ~187ms (average of five rounds) -- not bad for being a little hung-over.
