Weapon mods (full-auto, burst fire, semi-auto)

[OG3]

I'd greatly appreciate the ability to swap from one of the burst-fire weapons (like Seven's) to something fully automatic.

Do you mean like a Loadout outside the game or an item in-game? That would be fun, but would ruin the balance.

I'd be happy with either. Seven having a functional weapon would be amazing

Yeah. I don't like spending 3 out of 29 bullets just to deny a soul honestly.

The challenge with this is that the character's weapons are part of balancing their abilities. Infernus, for instance, would be a VERY different hero with Abram's gun.

That's not to say it can't happen. I think something along the line of Facets seems to be looked on pretty favorably for the fan base, though, and we might see something like that.

I get that, but I'm certain it's possible to balance certain characters without resorting to burst-fire weapons. Give them a lower FR or something.

I understand that some people like burst-fire, but personally, I hate it.

I agree. I even made an item suggestion, Master Armament, that applies some changes to a hero's weapon based on who picked it up.

Those ideas aren't all going to be balanced, but I put up a bunch of ideas for each hero and an alteration to the gun. It comes at the cost of a t3 item, but that's why the "master Armaments" are just straight up better in almost all cases than the base gun.

It would still take a lot of effort and I think it would have to be limited on a hero by hero basis. There couldn't be an item that just turns someone with a Spread gun into a full auto or vice versa.
