<Usso> thoughts on that new ak?
<thomaas> it's leaning too much on the offensive side
<thomaas> as in a rushing weapon
<Usso> i still think its ass compared to the aug lol
<thomaas> well, that doesnt mean it needs a buff
<thomaas> it means aug needs a nerf
<thomaas> and yeah, it think it's worse too
<thomaas> dardar took away the one thing it excels at
<thomaas> which is long range and accuracy
<thomaas> even minimi in that beta
<thomaas> has more range and accurate
<Usso> yeah
<thomaas> at that
<thomaas> i dont like the ammo deduction either
<thomaas> AK needs those extra bullets to bait players
<thomaas> or strategic spraying
<thomaas> what i do
<thomaas> think it needs
<thomaas> is just push
<thomaas> MAYBE
<thomaas> a hint of damage
<thomaas> just a tiny hint
<thomaas> but Push should be it's bread and butter
<thomaas> it should be able to hold a route
<thomaas> and play that defensive role
<thomaas> it was given since day 1
<thomaas> and not be backed down back to base
<thomaas> because of a hard rushing steyr that shoots in a straight line of fire
<thomaas> thats where push comes in
<thomaas> it's enough push to benefit ak and it's role
<thomaas> and accurate at a long distance
<thomaas> but it wouldnt win a STEYR/HK headfirst
<thomaas> just bite HP off bit by bit
<thomaas> while players try to close in
<thomaas> but you have to take maps into consideration
<thomaas> most maps are close range
<thomaas> so it benefits weps like aug/spaz/hk/de
<thomaas> so i'm not happy with the change
<thomaas> the tapfire isnt needed at all
<thomaas> it's kind of disrespectful to make it tapfire
<thomaas> and bad at long range
<thomaas> while minimi doesnt require it
<thomaas> and good at long range
<thomaas> also minimi can kinda hold onto you
<thomaas> unlike AK
