HA Heavy Weapons Changes (And More)


Saw this on the official forums, tweets from Higby (no clue how to do that embedding thing with tweets, so you'll have to suffer me quoting them ).

Jackhammer changes pt1: reduced recoil & accuracy loss per shot, max damage pushed from 5m to 12m, projectile speed 300m/s->400m/s.

Jackhammer changes pt2: ADS move accuracy penalty reduced ~25%, ADS move speed increased 0.5x -> 0.75x, hipfire accuracy increased.

Jackhammer changes pt3: reload when round in the chamber -100ms, reload when empty +100ms. These changes will be in next update.

MCG will get a better spin up, firing immediately but at a scaled rate while it fully 'spins up'. Not for the 02 patch.

MCG and Lasher will be getting some love too, but, not in the 02 update. Better spin up for MCG and less team damage for Lasher.
He also tweeted that battle rifles are getting a tuning pass for patch 03 (as well as major tuning passes to most infantry weapons, whatever that would amount to), and we're getting the ability to click player names in chat in the upcoming patch.
