Today's update is our official showcase of the Colt M16A2. Modeled by the supremely-talented SiD, one of the guys who helped found Firearms: Revival in 2004, this baby is truly beautiful. Stoke's skin and thisismyname's animations add the final touches, and from our use of it in-game over the past month I'd have to say it's one of our most visually appealing guns.
The M16A2 fills an interesting niche in our lineup. Our other assault rifles are all automatics, hence they're very bullet-hungry and feed into the spray-and-pray style of fighting. The M16A2, on the other hand, does not have a full-auto option. To use it effectively one must take careful, aimed shots on either semi-auto or three-round burst. This may sound like a drawback since the rate of fire is artifically limited by the burst option, but keep in mind you get accuracy boosts for using semi and burst (and that's on any weapon in our inventory, not just the M16A2). While credit cost, base accuracy and other handling data aren't fine-tuned yet, so far in testing the M16A2 has proven to be a well-liked niche weapon for those preferring a blend of precision firepower and volume at a reasonable price.
