The protecting team already is OP with M4s. It's only not so obvious because most of the cops waste their time at the armor spawn. The problem in my eyes is that M4s are too accurate at long distances. Reducing M4 skill for the cops would help with this- then they still have a formidable weapon to run up against the terrorist's combat shotgun. Security should still have max skill for M4, because they're security.
True, M4s are very powerful. I'm kinda thinking the same thing, maybe skill reduction for M4 would help the case, it won't hurt to try it at least.
thanks for the +1 They wouldnt be too op, the securities are usually using mp5s irl and pistols such as deseart eagle or 1 9mm pistol with the m4 as backup. In swats the mp5 will affect them but they wouldnt be too op and swat kinda needs something that will make them swats.
Yes, but this is not real life. You have to try and keep the game in balance, otherwise it's all gone to crap. Looking at things from your perspective, Securities and SWAT should start off every round with full armor, because they have it irl - which is utter nonsense. Not to mention that it would probably be ok to you if Secs got Deagles as well lol. So yeah, if it can be balanced out, then I'm in favor of this. If it hurts the balance too much, then nope.
