Not unless you miss… has happened many times.
Weapon management is now a problem?
And as previously mentioned, the Support actually has the best sidearm in terms of raw damage.
Bf3 had best lmgs and overall best gunplay and damage model. Lmgs did 25-18.4 damage and gpmgs 34-22. And on top of that great suppression.
Would have been perfect in this game too. But i think it’s too late for a change that big for Bf1. I only hope next bf will have gunplay, ttk and suppression similar to bf3.
I mainly play support and im really excited for the buffs. Lmgs reallly feel like peashooters in some occasions.
agreed, the only thing I would change is increase the minimum damage on a select few, making them need 1 less bullet to kill at range.
And the 1911 is going to be shooting much slower and be far less accurate at 16m.
Pistols are only really relevant at extreme close quarters or when you are finishing off a injured opponent at range. If we look at extreme close range literally every weapon, even the automatico gets beat out by 2 pistols, the bulldog and howdah.
The only thing that was maybe possibly needed was the “weak” LMGs (lewis, huot, perino) to have a buff to their min damage or a damage drop off buff.
