Been talking with Spachala about the Famas/AUG as as the weeks have gone by, more and more people are starting to realize that the guns are a bit overpowered. I believe there's been an extensive discussion of it over in the US community as well.

The AUG and Famas make rushing with an SMG pointless as the fire rate will out match any SMG close range, and the firing 4 bullets of a famas is faster than firing 3 from an AK47 which makes it the king of medium range as well.

We could disable the AUG and Famas alltogether.

Or we could limit the number of them available. Since every match will have a referee of some sort (shoutcaster or referee), they can keep tabs on the number of famas/aug a team has.

My idea would be to limit the Famas/AUG to 1 per team; making it a valuable resource during the round. The player using the famas will not want to waste it as if they drop the famas the other team will have two, giving them a distinct advantage at close and medium range.

We could limit the gun to two as well, though it wouldn't have as much of an impact on the game as most teams are using 2-3 famas, 1-2 smg and perhaps an AK or scope.

Can we get a vote from the following teams as to what they want regarding the famas

Archaic - ban them both (but 1 is fine)
SQL - 2 famas/aug
iM - 2 famas/aug (but 1 is fine)
Vincitori - limit to 1
x5 - ban them both (but 1 is fine)
Carnage - ban them both
Dissident - ban them both

others feel free to post as well.

I think we shouldn't have it at all. But if i had to choose one it would be just 1 Famas/AUG per team

Take it out all together i reckon.

Yea gonna have to agree, take it out.

NO! leave it in, we dont want this turning into another 1 gun game aka cod4....

i agree take them out, but all the people that have been pracing them will disagree

i personally think the aug should go if anything

Classify it as spec ops then make 3 per side.

/Thread

aug/famas are the same gen, same stats, different skin / sound

Carnage -Ban them both. 0 per team

ban, ive used it alot since the start of the game, its so much stronger than any other gun. Would b happy to see it go. Proof that its stronger is now when u play fray or iM, their whole team uses famas/aug and no other gun.

Nick rofl, do u understand that if it is left in it will turn into a 1 gun game for sure. Its already leading towards that now with majority of ppl switching to it.

I agree 100%

nick so silly, if everyone uses famas then its a 1 gun game.

vote to ban or get boycotted simple as that.

On second thought, I think we should only allow the AUG since it has more ****** recoil compared to the Famas (because they are overpowered weapons we should only allow the one that's 'harder' to use) IMO.

I still think it should be limited, it is op, 1 or 2 per team simple
