    Introducing...
    Another completely overhauling idea from Phanta Radicalists®!

    How about let's remove ALL the guns, and replace them with an UNTIERED, UN-OP arsenal?

    What if your chances of survival wheren't determined by the loot you found in chests? What if winning a match was truly defined by skill, and skill alone, untainted by the entropy of RNG?

    I say, remove all the current guns! Revise the gun system so as to remove all notions of tiers, balancing each weapon to reduce the amount of randomness involved in winning. Imagine a world where you didn't have to face miniguns and barretts with only the weak firepower of your tier-1 pistol!

    While we're at it, the current weapons seem overly generic as well. Do we truly have any unique weaponry in our arsenal? It's the same M9, the same AK47! We want variety! Add more weaponry, less stereotypical and common guns to the mix. AK47? Old. M416? Awesome!

    Woah, that took a turn in a random direction.

    While I agree on making the gun pool less generic from the other servers, I don't agree on removing all the current guns.

    Don't remove weapons, just ditch their tiers.

    Personally, I don't like this idea that much.
    Think about all the hard work that people did, it will be a waste.
    And, weak fire power in mc-war, is really weak..

    Nope, nope, nope. Phanta are you drunk. I recommend taking a break until you sober and rethink this idea. :v

    Outbalancing all the current weapons could be a good idea...

    Interesting idea. I don't like the idea of everything being the same tier. Why even loot then? It seems to big of a change from what fpsHG already is. I would like this idea in War maybe, but not fpsHG. :V

    You could say the same of, say, TF2.
    All the guns are balanced, so why even try to unlock them?

    For variety and different uses in different situations I suppose. However, this just doesn't feel like fpsHG to me. I feel as though there should be a great incentive to loot chests. If everything was the same, the guns wouldn't matter as much as the food or ammo.

    This would be better for mc-war.
