      No doubt, right? I got my 1000 kills with it before the buff because I really thought they were going to nerf it with this past patch. Boy was I wrong. I haven't used it since, because I want to focus on other weapons and get platinum with more, but I really didn't see an issue with it before they buffed it even more. The M16 took a little longer to get platinum, but I never used it much before the patch and couldn't say how big of a change it had. Now that I only need a few more kills to hit 1000, I won't be using it anymore either.

      I think a big part of the problem with Demize99's idea of balance is down to the facts:
      He doesn't play it on PC.
      He looks at statistics instead of in-game performance.

      That's why the M16 was weakened in the first place. Basically he said, "It does this much damage and can shoot this fast. If all of the bullets hit it's way too powerful." He failed to take into account the fact that if you spam it as fast as it can fire, you won't hit much so its effective damage at that RoF is a moot point.

        I've read they were tweaking the knife for the single player and accidentally affected the registration in MP.

          yup, I'm still hoping that isn't all the weapon changes

          M16 should have been changed back but also the tracers tweaked as well

            They're tweaking the helicopter handling, hopefully making it more agile. So the tracers, which were made to combat the nimble choppers on the consoles, might actually be balanced at that point.

              Tweaking the mobility & adding tracer countermeasures (Vsmoke) will be welcomed by all PC pilots. It is a little lopsided at the moment.

                Thompson
                M1 Garand

                Guns they should revert to pre-R7:

                M16
                PKM
                XM8LMG

                All bolt action rifles.

                Guns they should nerf:

                None

                Guns they should bust:

                VSS: two more mags please.

                I hope this list is clear enough.

                I'm not sure about Uzi,PP2000 and MG3, though.

                  pp2k was nerfed once i guess. Never saw a difference. Uzi sight is screwed up, could be fixed. They should make the blast radius of the CG the same as the AT4, where you have to hit the target dead on instead of the enemies general vicinity.

                    What it most likely means.

                    Uzi is going from 10 to 11.2 damage at max range.
                    AKs74u - hard to say but i think they will bump the kick value by 50% to 9
                    PKM is going back to 16.7 to 14.3 (which is a boost to its long range) hard to say if it keep the short range boost of 18 meter of last patch. or will go back to 8 meters of max damage.
                    T88 is nerfed back down to 14.3 at short range.
                    AN-94 will get its long range damage lowered down to 14.3 again.
                    G3 will go back to 25-20 damage

                    MG3 numbers change will most likely bump its damage by 1 bullet at both short and long range so the new values for it are 11.2 to 10.
                    -_- why are they f*cking up all of these guns that have no problems, its like they skimmed their forum and took up any whining they saw. I think the AKs 74 has enough recoil.

                      Im very pleased to have my G3 back with improved settling time, however the M16 nerf is still a real shame. Im still waiting for them to do something about the M14 sights or magazine capacity.
