    I'm asking for a single thing. It would require more skill, less camping and more strategy than now. L120 sniper rifle should get 40 bullets, including the starter magazine. It would require more skill to use this weapon, since players would have to conserve ammo. Also, they would camp less since it will be less effiecent in the update. I see nothing bad in this suggestion. Also, nuking will still be possible.

    I agree, the isolator as too much ammunition. I don't even use all the bullets when I play with it.

    One suggestion. 32 rounds.
    Just have the weapon use two clay per shot.
    I like this idea, the Isolator and Model, the most powerful sniper and shotguns respectively, should not have a lot of ammo. If anything, the bad weapons should have more ammo.

    In the update, the nuke killstreak will be harder to get. I still wanted to make sure that it works, but I'll look up later.

    Yes, it will be a 35 killstreak. Now think.... if a player didn't have scavenger...
    They need to hit with 5 of their 32 Isolator bullets. That would get them a 5 killstreak, which is 10 extra rounds. By the time they have about 4 shots left, 33 killstreak. Time to use that Python. Or if it's a large map, hope that you hit someone. (or make sure you actually hit them, by using good skill :v)

    This is a good idea, overall the isolator seems to op with ammo and damage.

    But if you have the scarvenger perk...
    You can spam 2 magazines and only need 1 kill to get them back.
    Good idea, but I doubt that it's effective

    It will still require more skill. Few pros use other perks with Isolator, for instance, sleight of hand.

    Most people use scavenger anyways, since you most likely will run out of ammo.

    Hell NO.
    The only gun prestige 36+ without scav can do consistently with is Iso. This would just be a huge pain to those without scavenger.

    I just rethought this. The others have a point, since it is the only weapon you can get a high killstreak with, without requiring scavenger. Now I'm kinda going no.... However, if the effect scavenger had was slightly nerfed, that could be fine, I suppose.

    How about instead of nerfing the ammo for iso we buff the ammo for every other weapon (automatic's mainly) :V

    You could still nuke. Just be more accurate.

    But iso is the one gun that is good that you can use without scav. People like me who dont have scav will suffer a lot

    You don't need nukes to be a winner Porkie. Nobody needs nukes to prove their "skill".

    For instance, I don't go for nukes. It's the K/D ratio that I want to upgrade.

    Absolutely not. The model and Iso are some of the only guns that people without scavenger can actually use. If the ammo was halved then all chance for non scavenger user to nuke would be severely damaged. Then guns should stay how the are: Secondary: 32 ammo Primary: 64.

    Instead of 40 ammo, if anything were to happen it would be 32, each shot takes so much ammo and all guns get 64 ammo each life. Example: Cbow takes 4 arrows to shoot, MSR and dissa take 2. Anyways I completely agree with this because at the same time it has the most ammo out of all snipers which isn't good
