See this is why i havnt liked a good bit off the recent weapon patches. Balancing seems to be simply making everything low recoil with very few changes such as damage, hipfire,increased recoil ect. Sure sometimes it happens but generally its incredibly slight like a .1 second decrease in reload time amid the masses of "decreased recoil." Soon the "make each weapon feel unique" is going to leave nearly identical weapons with only very slight differences. In short patches=MAKE ALL GUNS LAZER BEAMS, CALL IT A DAY.
