why dont they just take out all the skill weapons in the game and the game will be just like Call Of Duty with shields, who ever sees who first, wins.well, in a BR match, it IS whoever sees who first wins.
seriously, BR fights come down to who shoots first. that's IT. if any weapon needed to be taken out of the game, it is the BR. (mind you, i use the BR a LOT, but i still agree with it being too overpowered.
with weapons like the SMG, or the Assault Rifle, they can be countered. the exception to this is if the opposing player has a BR. basically, if you're close to medium range, BR wins.
and there's one exception to that: dual wielding. if you have an SMG and you dual wield a Plasma Rifle, you will OWN in close combat. BUUUUUUUT, since they removed dual wielding, they deemed the BR too powerful. i mean, come on, if they had a BR in FireFight, that's ALL anyone would EVER use. at least with the SMG, you need a backup weapon.
also, the new Magnum was MADE for headshots after you've taken down the enemies shields. it's not, and never was, a direct copy of the hand cannon.
