Re: For those without access to the films

In Response To: Re: For those without access to the films (stabbim) : I was thinking about this recently. With 0% bloom, the pistol seems like it : would become a different animal. It was already superior if the range was : close enough - that advantage grows significantly without bloom. : I remember an interview with Frankie recently talking about the amount of : bloom they'd end up using in the new playlists. I am not 100% sure of the : wording, but the gist of what he said was that the bloom would be reduced, : but probably not to 0% in most gametypes (I think maybe 85% was : mentioned?). The reason I mention this is that he said something about the : needle rifle becoming a power weapon with 0% bloom. At the time I assumed : that was just due to its higher ROF, and the supercombine effect, which on : their own could make it a hugely overpowered weapon without bloom. But : after reading your posts here, I wonder if there was something more to the : worries about the needle rifle? At this point I'm not really understanding why they didn't go all the way and add ROF caps to the bloomless NR and the DMR, like they are with the Magnum in CE mode.
