Improvements to R6?

Dariun · 01-26-2007, 07:08 PM

Just a few suggestions if they ever make a patch/update to fix R6 a bit

Weapon tweaks:
The snipers... even though the accuracy and damage ratings are high it doesn't seem like it. I've managed to shoot someone 3 times with a sniper (2 chest 1 head) and he didn't die. Also point blank shot in peoples chests with a sniper and same result. Make the snipers as accurate as it is stated and also the damage.

Shotguns:
Waaayyyyyy too powerful. I've been getting one shotted from a good 30 yards in story mode and terrorist hunt.

Sub Machine guns:
Strangely powerful and accurate even at longish distances! Sub machine guns have the worst range in the game and the damage isn't too great either, the only thing thats good is the accuracy. Yet I have been constantly getting killed by them from long distances even when I'm using assault rifles with longer range and better damage and slightly worse accuracy

I've noticed that sometimes headshots don't work... for example when I was hunting terrorists they were crouched behind a small wall and I managed to flank him and took 2 shots at his head with an Mtar and he didn't die

I think it might have been because of the walls dimensions/coverage it offers isn't accurate *shrug*

just a few things

oh and also the fix for incendiary grenades of course

i would just settle for a fix of the random freezes

Dariun · 01-26-2007, 08:02 PM

ahhhh I thought i forgot something lol

yeah random freezes can be a pita... i've only had it once though... right at the end of a match so i lost the points lol.

Side note... anyone else's xbox give them the disc read error/needs to be cleaned message now and then?

i get it occasionally and have to eject and close the cd drive for it to work again

I agree that shotgun was too powerful with long range, but I don't understand why you can't kill enemy with headshot or 2chest+1 headshot.
For me, 1 shot on head was more than enough, and i believe I never failed.

I don't know if you are referring to MP but there were not many chances to use shotgun in Single player and i guess they overpowered it because nobody likes to use close range weapon in single player so they wanted to balance it?
I don't know how it works in MP though.

anyway, I think they should fix many glitches in single player mode.
And there are so many people complaining about freezes in multiplayer mode(I don't play MP so it's not my problem).

hey Joon

yeah i was referring to MP/live terrorist hunts with the shotgun as terrorists seem to one shot me easily from distance

as for the snipers i've tried sniping with only 3 of them as one is still locked. The slow single shot then reload ones seem to kill with one shot even to the chest when it registers as a hit. The one (3rd one down the list) that is kinda like an assault rifle in single shot mode was the sniper that i used when 2 chest shots +1head shot was involved... i know the damage rating for that isnt as high as the other ones but 2 body shots should still kill regardless i think *shrug*

oh by the way i totally agree with the sniper rifles seeming no more powerfull than a BB gun, on a team sharpshooter i used the sniper rifle and i shot this guy about 3 times ( i even saw the blood spray ) and all that happend rather than his untimley death it gave my position away. HUmmm like the good old AWP sniper rifle in CS where it was a one shot kill

AWP was overpowered LOL, that's why I always played in a server that restricts AWP. whereever u shoot, it just over kills, LOL.
