    This idea is self explanatory. Random crits is where a random shot/burst deals x1.5 damage. There is only a 5% chance of getting crits it will mainly benifit the lower level players since their weapons arnt as powerful. This is virtually useless for most/all snipers and the skully since they pretty much always OSK anyways. However higher level players much pay close attention so they do not take a huge amount of damage from 1 m16 burst.

    For all burst fire weapons (m16, FAMAS, etc) only 1 burst will be crits. For all auto weapons that do not have burst fire, only 4 shots will be crits. For semi auto/pump guns (snipers, pistols, shotguns) only 2 consecutive shots will be crits. To make sure things arnt to OP, the Minigun, Ray, cbow, flamethrower, and LAW will NOT have random crits.

    This thing ruined a game called TF2. Some of you may not have heard it, but with them enabled, it strongly screwed up the game for the good players.

    New players just simply obliterated good players by having these. They deal EXTREME amounts of damage and are purely based of luck. Favor always is towards the new players, therefore it eliminates the skill required.

    Guess you have a point, especially when burst assault rifles deal a lot of damage.

    P.S. Still can't change my vote. :V

    So that explains why tf2 isn't as popular as it was...

    I mean, getting 1-shotted with a shotgun by a gibus f2p player is kind of annoying, knowing that you are the better player.
    This will happen on Mc-War as well...

    In tf2 this is called a mini crit since it inly deals x1.5 dmg

    Actually, it deals 1.35 or 35% increase in damage. Or the random actual critical hits are very bs and occur often with Melee weaponry. They deal 3x times as much damage and it's ridiculous.

    So, I kind of think a body damage multiplier would be better to use instead.

    Then again the only classes that really use melee weapons are demo pyro and engineer and medic
