I know, I know, not another one! I was thinking about barrets. I HATE barrets because so many people use them. I have an idea to steer all but the skilled players from the barrets.
1. Slow speed inbetween shots.
Too many times you see a barret simply "run through" someone, barreling through them without the slightest pause, this also occurs with the m79, but not as bad since m79s have lesser range. This is to encourage sniping and not running as much, like a true sniper.
2. Less scope.
By being prone, you can pretty much see about 1/4 of the map, sucessfully covering it. This is unfair, I mean getting shot a mile away from where the sniper was is uncool. Decrease this slightly.
3. Only 6 bullets.
This is not that important, but the barret reload IS pretty long, and hardened barret users will feel the pain when they camp, as they cannot shoot for a good 10 seconds or so. This is to rid people who only camp.
I feel I nerfed it a little too much, eh, what are your thoughts?
