[Suggestion] Scavenger Perk Improvements

I have played MC-War and owned Scavenger for a while now, and I have noticed how unbalanced it can be sometimes. Certain guns, such as the MSR, take two ammo per shot. Others, like the Ray Gun, take four ammo per shot. When you have Scavenger active and you kill someone, you receive ten primary ammo and fifteen secondary ammo no matter what gun you use. This makes the amount of ammo you can get surprisingly unfair sometimes. I have some suggestions for some adjustments to the amount of ammo you get per kill for each gun. Please leave a vote in the poll saying which you prefer.


First Suggestion: Scarce Amounts
In MY opinion, the game would be much more fun if ammo was very scarce, so people would be more cautious of how much they had left. Also, this would prevent people from going on those 40+ killstreaks where they just spray bullets into the enemy spawn carelessly. This would make the game more enjoyable overall for more people. Also, this way, the game would be not so pay-to-win as it is now. Everyone would like that.

Second Suggestion: Sparing Amounts
Alternatively, for those who think large amounts of ammo for the donors is better, here is another option. The player would get a decent amount of ammo, but it would still be balanced.

These are two suggestions. Leave a comment below if you have a question or concern. The whole point of this thread is to inspire change in the way that Scavenger works in order to balance it out and create a more enjoyable experience for Scavengers and non-Scavengers alike.

You think so? Did you read through both suggestions? Currently, Scavenger makes the game more of a pay-to-win style server gamemode, and nobody wants that. Are you implying that because of this, Scavenger would result in the player NOT having enough ammunition?

 

Hmm, I see what you mean. However, my second option does give a considerable amount of ammo to each gun, respectively - enough for any player with a moderate skill level to have plenty of ammunition at the ready.

 

What do you mean?
The players would get their starting ammo, obviously, which is more than enough to get at least a dozen kills or so.
Also, remember, you get more ammo at a five killstreak.
The amounts of ammo aren't that large. However, this would help ensure that players who purchased Scavenger aren't winning only because they paid money, as you would need to have considerable skill to get kills without wasting too much ammunition.

 

Are you familiar with how the ammo system works?
ALL players start with a set amount of ammunition. At a five killstreak, ALL players get more ammo.
Donors who have Scavenger also get ammo when they kill someone. My argument here is that the amount of ammunition they receive is TOO much, making the winners of the games ALWAYS the players who donate.
The way I have listed ammo would make it so that the donors don't have unlimited ammo next to the non-donors who don't, yet they would still be getting their money's worth.

 

Fair enough, I suppose.
The way I see it is that the Mc-War perks aren't supposed to determine whether you win or lose like they are now. They should just give you that little boost that will provide an advantage in certain situations.
Sadly, this game is mostly pay to win, and the developers and owners of the server seem to like it that way.
As most of you all don't like my ideas, this discussion is over, I suppose.
Thanks for all of your opinions!
