Once more, i never meant using a pistol against a rifle would be equal, nor do i want that. But you continually implied you wanted a rifle to be better, meaning it is higher tier and better in every way, and that there is a 100% guarantee that you would win if you used a rifle and i used a pistol, and i had a 0% chance of survival. I’m merely saying that doesn’t make sense. You keep using the “x is better” argument when that’s exactly what i’m trying to say is bad.
I said “why do you think the military uses pistols” because again, you continually imply there is no way to win a pistolxrifle fight, meaning why even carry one? Why not carry two rifles?
TL;DR: I think there should always be some disadvantage people can exploit if they have the skill to do so. Obviously, a full mili geared guy should be extremely difficult for a freshspawn to kill. But it should be possible. There should be some way to do it. IE, all the armor is slowing him down. Rifles shouldn’t be the best, it’s a problem with U3. There should be some disadvantage that, say, pistols have over them. It should be difficult to win a pistolxrifle fight, but not impossible as you want. That expands over to attachments, grips shouldn’t just give static advantages, they should introduce a new advantage in one situation (lower recoil in a medium range fight) and a new disadvantage in another (slower draw speed in a sudden ambush/sneak attack).
No, that’s what you’re saying. Read the reply next time.
