From A Different World - Forums

Deth, Boris and I did some beta testing for the current weapons on the server. I'd like some feedback on some of the changes that we've done.

Shotgun:
clip has been reduced to 6
Firing speed has been increased
Damage has been lowered by 2

HUGE:
Firing speed has been increased drastically

Newten Launcher (Traitor):
"Charge" takes less time (Right mouse button attack, or "Alternate fire")

AWP (Traitor)
Damage increase to 101
Head shot multiplier x4 damage
(Essentially, the AWP can now 1 shot people if they are not a detective. Which is what it should be. If you get a headshot, it's a given kill)

Mp5
Fire rate increase (Shoots slightly slower than the MAC-10)
Damage reduced by 2



We're balancing out the weapons. The shotgun was changed do to the fact that it's an auto shotgun and it doesn't shoot like one. I feel like the changes we've made to it sort of "Balance" it out. The damage and clip size negate the speed increase.

Regardless, tell us what you guys think of the changes.

I like this. Especially the change with the MP5. It has a really small clip, but had a really slow firing speed, making it hard to be able to kill someone fast.

Originally I was going to give it a 25 round clip. But apparently you can't change the clip size ABOVE it's default. (So I can lower it, but not higher it above 15) because you'd pick it up with 15 shots, then reload it to get 25. Figured that was too glitchy. So the firing speed has been increased and the damage has been lowered by 1 - 2. 1 round clip should be able to kill someone very easily. Which makes it a desirable gun instead of a garbage gun.

I enjoy this update as well, however, the Jihad bomb still exists, so that's another day of me not being completely happy in life.

The Jihad doesn't get very many kills. In my eyes it's a pretty balanced weapon. I think the record for Jihad kills on the server is about 5 - 6. C4 has gotten much more than that.

The average kills a Jihad gets is about 3 - 4. Most people pan-out when they hear the bomb going off. And most people survive it. Also, it kills the traitor in the process. It's a pretty balanced weapon.

At this point, there are no plans for changing the Jihad. It's a balanced weapon.

Actually ive gotten an 8 man jihad...

Soul, didn't that happen before Deth nerfed the damage on the Jihad?

When did he nerf it? It might've been before. But stickz got an 8 man yesterday.

Oh. Well, I still don't consider it overpowered. Tip for not getting Jihad'ed, don't stay in a group, at least not too close.
