    Now that SMGs and shottys are bugged, (possibly a couple automatics) I wonder if this will affect the tactics used in the gameplay.
    Will the snipers be more popular?
    Post what you think will be different about how people play the game.
    Personally I have been using Dissa a lot more and it is now my new favorite gun.

    Since the way automatics/SMGs/Shottys have changed, they have not affected me at all. The only guns from those classes that I used were the mini gun the UMP, and rarely the model. I have been using MSR and Dissassembler for a long time now, so again it does not affect me much.

    Well, definitely almost everyone's going to use a sniper since that's the second more popular weapon type. However, I still think the number of Crossbow and Ray-gun users will remain the same. I don't believe their tick delays were affected by 1.8.

    We can definitely expect an increase in iso noob calling. :V

    It has affected my gameplay since I used to iso skully. Now I use iso and msr. I tried the dissa but it sucks in my opinion.
    I also notice that there has been a lot more iso users since the update.

    For now the gameplay will obviously be affected. Some of the guns are so bad that its unplayable.
    I think snipers will be used a lot more until the glitch is fixed.

    The Dissa does not suck! Its fire rate and ammo clip give it an advantage over the MSR. Also, why use the MSR when you could use the dragunov? There is no difference except that the dragunov has one more shot per clip then the MSR. This makes it better in my opinion.

    @Serine1002 Msr is love msr is life. Also, it has 6 shots so... 6:2=3 and 3 time 2 is 6! Half life three confirmed!

    But in all seriousness, I just like the msr better.

    I find myself using dissa most of the time. I have gotten quite a few nukes with it aswell. I dont rush or camp that much because if they get to close and you have a sniper, you are screwed. So my new tactic would be running around and spamming dissa and python.

    Well, I an finding my gameplay has really been affected by the glitches. I loved using ump and skully, and every infect I used mini, lemon or ump. I find infect impossible with only snipers, as I don't have ray and cbow sucks in infect. The overall gameplay has really changed, with almost everyone using a sniper or cbow, and Ray is now a viable option in ctf and tdm

    My gameplay has changed where I started to use the msr and dragunov more rather than the iso or dissa. They aren't too bad of snipers once you get the hang of them. It does give me a bit of a reason to use sleight of hands more often with iso than scav with another weapon.

    I remember back in 2013 when you were a pro for using Skully and an Iso Noob for using Iso :v
    Basically my guns are now:
    Dragunov @Majora_Jora taught me well
    MSR
    Isolator
    Disassembler

    I've been limited to snipers. However some of the automatic weapons are.... okay. Mehh
    I've been using Isolator and MSR. The Disassembler is too slow for me. It may do almost the damage of the Barrett, but I prefer high RoF over high damage and capacity when their damage values are so close.

    I haven't seen any change in the number of snipers in a game (being higher or lower). Oddly enough I haven't seen much change at all in the flow of the game. This is probably becuase of the lack of players using SMGs and shotguns in the first place

    Well, the amount of noob calling will go up :stuck_out_tongue:

    Sniper gameplay will go way up, and some "pros" will fall being unable to adapt.
    This will be interesting, as every time new tactics come and everyone is forced to use them new "good" maps come along.

    since i got the ray last night, and rather enjoy in TDM (dont know why, i just took to it like the MP7 <3) that, cbow, MSR, Drag, Iso, and knife. All I can say is that i have gotten so many better games since the guns bugged.
    Mostly because I like to play overly aggressive and snipers force me to not rush so darn recklessly XD

    It certainly has affected the game; there are 10 times as many people running around with snipers. Also see a lot more knifers. Personally, I haven't really adjusted my tactics. I just rush with the dragunov instead of with the skullie.
