Could you make handguns.... | Forums

I do agree to a degree! For mid to close range combat as a sniper you are pretty much guaranteed to die. I would at the very least recommend making sniper pistol more powerful.

They don't necessarily need to be more powerful, but the fire rate is atrocious. I feel like it ends up being one shot for every three trigger pulls, which is ridiculous. I could deal with 3-4 shots to kill with a pistol, IF I could just get the shots off timely.

They definitely should up the possible ROF for the pistols. It does not take that long for a hammer/slide to blowback and lock into place again.

Seeing some conflicting sentiment on the current state of handguns, though opinions on their ttk does appear to be on the consistent side of things. Thoughts, guys?

Personally? I think TTK is too high across the board but then again, I am one of those hoping for a new hardcore mode where TTK reduction is one of several aspects.

I was in a 1v4 so I whipped out my pistol since it’s supressed so I wouldn’t give up my location. Took out 3 of the 4... couldn’t find the last guy so it went to a draw. I think it does just as much damage as burst firing with a auto weapon.

Good for shooting out lights, not so great for shooting someone's lights out.

Semi-auto fire rate needs to be fixed on handguns as well as a number of rifles (such as the ACR) the artificial pause between shots fired and trigger pulls should be fixed/changed so every trigger pull fires a round. I think one of the reasons the M4A1 is so popular is that the semi-auto fire rate doesn't have an artificial limiter making it both more effective and more enjoyable to shoot.

TTK for almost every type of weapon is too high, but I'm sure many disagree which is why we need a Hardcore mode

[xMarTiiniix]

I wouldn’t want a major change to TTK. Maybe a small adjustment. It’s not game breaking.

If you have snipers 1 shot killing then other weapons do seem to be a little on the high side.
