Hey, that is okay. It was a wall-o-text anyway.
the reason I suggested XM-26 LSS is that it is not overpowered like the AK-74 based automatic shotgun with 10 round box magazine. XM-26 LSS has 5 round box magazine and uses a bolt-action mechanism so it would be a nice compromise between firepower and fast reloading with the smaller ammunition capacity, which is balanced by the quick reload.
Yes, I am very much looking forward to the new update about the AK-47, I am like a small child waiting for Christmas now. I am sure a lot of players find something to complain about the Commando class even after that but one can always hope...
I personally think Firebug should be enhanced slightly. How about making bloats explode in a ball of fire, which can set surrounding specimens on fire because of the massive amount of methane in their gigantic gut? I think this would increase their damage. The damage should be higher than the bloat acid when a bload pops normally. This would enhance their usability without making them too overpowered.
Berserkers are currently a bit too much of a solo-class, because many seem to want to score as many kills as possible and run around chainsawing things. After a while they get frustrated at the people who shoot everything they are running towards and run off on their own to leave the others to their own devices. It is only later when their role as a tank is getting more pronounced, but even then they can solo a bit better with their movement speed bonus, melee damage and damage reduction. A Riot shield would make the Berserker more useful as a tank for a swarms of weaker enemies and the mighty Fleshpound with the tradeoff of reduced damage output. I think it is time to make the zerker a teamplayer again.
You seem to be very persistent about the Barrett brand, any particular reason?
I seem to prefer things made I personally think any standard caliber marksman rifle with a scope to replace the iron sights would be great, maybe give them a semi-automatic sniper rifle which would not require you to lower the aim? That is mainly the reason why I suggested the PSG-1. Also that it is a German manufactured rifle which would be more likely to be available in the Specimen infested Great Britain. L96A1 was suggested mainly because it is made in Great Britain (and has a nice silhouette ).I agree, the UZI / Mac 10 / LEGO-smg form factor gets rather tired rather fast. They also make me think of "gangsta-rap"...
The SMG needs to be a tool, not a willy-extension. No dual-wielding SMGs either... I was wondering if the medic could have a new, brand spanking new multiple dose jet injector he could use in tandem with the SMG. That would allow him to heal a player, turn around and shoot the head off a crawler trying to chew on his a**e.
