Yeah I am with you.  I am not a primarily a Type 95 user as yet.  Way too early to fall in love with any one gun. Although I do like the feel.  Right now I am in the 1000-2000 kill range with 3 or 4 guns.  Testing the waters.  Whatever I pick up I try out.

I have taken into account all the information in the graph included in strategy guide.  Would you like a copy so your information can be a little more factual? I can upload a jpeg for you.

I don't agree with someone being able to fire 3 shots with mk14 faster than a rapid fire t95

They don't have to fire 3 shots faster than a rapid fire Type 95.

In a sterile comparison between the two guns, the assumption is made that a semi-automatic weapon fires as fast as the mechanical parts can move - not how fast a human being can pull the trigger repeatedly. Otherwise you'd never get any idea of what the fire rate of a semi-automatic weapon.

Nonetheless, a sterile comparison does not matter because there are no sterile situations in-game. The Type 95 player may get all three rounds into the MK14 player, he may not. But the MK14 player only has to get to rounds into the Type 95 player.

For some players, getting 2 rounds into an opponent with two pulls of a trigger on a semi-automatic weapon is easier than getting 6 rounds in the general direction of an opponent with a burst fire weapon - regardless of rate of fire.

Whether or not all players feel that way or can do it has nothing to do with game balance.

The type type 95 is one of my favorite weapons so far. I don't see much wrong with it, it can take upto two burst fires to take down someone unless it's a headshot. You need to be hell accurate to pull off two spot on bursts or even one to get the kill. If not you just die... If they nerf this gun then they seriously need to take into consideration nerfing all the sniper rifles that are one hit kills...

I can't see them nerfing a burst fire weapon and not nerfing sniper rifles. I mean the main sniper rifle I see people quickscoping ohk's with is the barret and that's semi auto, it has a faster refire speed than the type 95 and kills in just one bullet. If any weapon is OP in this game it's the sniper rifles that pull off ohk's.

First off I am not a "SMG hipfiring noob" I believe I have one class with an SMG and it had dead silence pro on it.  Secondly the reason why I hate on the Type 95 is because with a strong connection no matter where it hits the person you can get a one burst kill everytime.  And amazingly somehow people have learned how to curve their bursts around corners and hit me. 

Yeah, it is a horrible way to look at something.

You're demanding that every weapon perform exactly the same - ON AVERAGE.

That ruins the game. It has totally ruined the series.

It takes skill to get to higher levels and prestige faster than the AVERAGE player. I want a game that works that way. I don't want to jump into a game where a level 1 guy has access to the same weapons, equipment, perks, etc that I have. There is no satisfaction in that. At all. Zero. None. Nada.

So how does that relate to this discussion?

Who gives a rat's azz whether or not the Type 95 is OP???

I get satisfaction out of running out of ammo in whatever gun I use and having to pick up the FIRST available gun I come across. That might mean I start with a Type 95 ... and wind up with a pistol of some sort.

But if I can survive with that pistol long enough to pick up an AK 47 next, then I am having fun.

I wish you people would go play Halo or something else - go play BF3.

What made COD4 MW1 a success was the fact that there was NO weapon balance in the game. There was no PERK balance in the game. You either figured out which weapons and perks worked for you or you got slaughtered, pure and simple.

Figuring that out was the first part of what made the game successful. That took ingenuity from the player and it was huge step forward in gaming in general.

The other part of what made COD so popular was that above all else - the player actually had to THINK and successfully read what moves other players were going to make.

Having guns that all perform the same - ON AVERAGE - removes the necessity to do that.

It DUMBS DOWN the game.
