I disagree. The MK14 has the same rof as the Type95 so technically it can fire 3 shots just as fast as the Type95 can.

Nope, the MK14 caps out at 525rpm, and that's if you can even pull a trigger 9 times a second. Even if you can, the game auto slows your ROF.

@TrialStarDragon The amount of derp in your posts is unbelievable. Are you really that dumb? Stats are the defining factor in determining a weapon's effectiveness. What else do the devs review? Player skill? How is that possible? It's not.

And honestly, I think my brain almost popped when you said a 1HK, 20000rpm weapon with no recoil etc might not be OP if the person is bad. Not sure if trolling.

The type95 is a strong weapon, but not overpowered. It has strengths and weaknesses just like every other weapon. It has low bullet spread and recoil with quick close-range kills. It suffers in long-range encounters through reliability compared to the M16 M14 and all snipers. Due to the nature of burst weapons if you miss your first burst on target you'll die to an opponent who is on target with any automatic at close range.

Due to the high close damage and fire rate it has a luck factor to it as well. Hip firing and fast turning are more reliable then most weapons, but the type95 isn't the only weapon like this. The PP90m1 is a great example of having a higher chance of killing through fire rate/luck (hip firing/quick turning).

I do agree that the gun needed some rebalancing and I believe less hip fire accuracy is a good modification to the weapon. I do not think it should be removed from a 2 shot kill at close range. In the current state of things the M16 and Type95 are clearly designed for different situations.

It seems most of the gripe is because the Type95 was created as a close range burst weapon with medium-long range capability. If the Type95 was nerfed to a 3 shot kill it would no longer have a niche. The m16 would be better at range and nearly equal (burst fire rates slightly different) in close range. Thus the m16 would be a better choice and no longer have it's own niche compared to other accurate fire weapons.

It is more viable then automatics at medium-long range because it's a burst fire weapon. The m16 will take you down more reliably at range and the type95 at close range.

You're better off not replying to him, pics and sarcasm work well against his type.

I don't think it is overpowered. If you shoot them first then it'll be difficult for them to land shots on you. If they are far away then don't challenge. You can always make your own Type 95 class and even things out as well.
