I mean it seems reasonable. Benefits with no downsides didn't really make much sense.

Yea I am dumb af for not reading patchnotes. Thanks for your worthless opinion here though not relating at all to the post.

Anyways I'm glad the thing that reduced the reload speed by literally half finally got nerfed, it was stronk af & we needed a reason to not pick the half-reload-speed option over other magazine options. Might see quad stack or hell even the +8 magazines in games now.

Good. It was literally free 100% faster reload with the only drawback not giving other positive stats. Honestly should've been in the game from the start.

Besides, we already have a handful of reload reducing skills and AI buffs if you play solo.

Damn, as a VR player I really liked the speedpull magazine. Having to wait for the reload circle to fill is wierd. They should make you able to immediately pull out a fresh mag but make it require precision to seat in VR rather than how it works now, but I imagine VR's not going to be fiddled around with at this point.

I find larger magazines are more comfortable for VR in the first place to reload less often rather than reload faster. We're not penalized by the stability stat anyways though and that's the biggest hit. Minus one concealment isn't really all that big a deal. I guess minus 4 accuracy is significant but it can be offset with other attachments.

What's even the point of nerfing a weapon mod that was available for 10 maybe 15 weapons at best? Even the majority of those guns were not meta like the entire CAR/AK family or the P-90. It would've made more sense if they nerfed the bigger the better to balance meta.

Made worse weapons like the JP36 even worse since now you are stuck with clarion levels of reload, might as well just pick clarion
Same for the rest, might as well pick either Lions roar or Gecko for conceal builds

use the speed pull mag, agressive reload basic and lock n' load aced with a full auto assault rifle, do i need to say more?

[Big Dick]

The only reason they are doing this, is to make old DLC (gage spec ops pack), and weapons from old DLCs that have speed pull mags, less valuable - and the new DLCs (vast majority of which feature guns that don't have speed pull mags) more valuable

For people saying that this is for balance reason. There are hundreds of ways of making things more balanced but Overkill chooses not to follow them. It's just a matter of old stuff getting more and more useless and new stuff added often being overpowered

Honestly mods are just more balanced and fun. It'll take a while but i'll probably make a mod that reverts this idiotic change just to piss Overkill off
