    I included it in a previous RC. It's been over a week at the very least since the SMG 2 was changed. People are just noticing now? The whole nerf SMG 2 topic was started while the current SMG 2 script was active.

    seriously avair, wut!

    i'm just gunna go dig out a screenshot from the emp_canyon match [fuck, i think it was taken during the bit when i thought that print screen was the screenshot button- take a look at the screenshots i put on the screenshot thread and notice that only one is from the canyon match during the PUG :(]

    anyway, i shall describe the screenshot to you: me as an engineer, and in front of me, NO LESS THAN SIX engineers. oh shit... people going engineer!

    what i did notice about the PUG though was that for the first time i was frequently battling other classes than engineer. grim gibber was doing damage as a machinegunner, and lobster frequently killed me with his goddamn scout rifle.

    I just don't agree that the SMG's are too weak... if anything SMG2 is a perhaps... perhaps too powerful. but not by a lot. I don't agree that the pistol is better in any situation than an SMG.

    this post was thoughtfully brought to you by a dedicated engineer.

    Or give Engineer the shotty pistol. :) No need to give pure shotgun then.

    Just side comment you may ignore this.

    Oh so it was some bug now that caused smg 2s to suddenly lose their power in rc 26? Maybe we should all revert to rc 25 just to prove that it isn't.

    rc25 aviar says its fine dont nerf it.. rc26 after no change has been made avair says its now easier to use the pistol for kills..

    we have too many people testing the RCs who dont want fixes or balancing so they can continue to get kills.. these are the kind of people who will find exploits and not report them so they can use them later on to win matches

    According to the script files themselves, they were there. Do I trust the script files or people's perceptions?
