All of that is huge for sure, I have been enjoying a lot of the balance passes they've been doing. M16 got a damage increase, so it floats that DMR line again. Shotguns got a huge buff, its literally the new salt shaker because it was already pretty strong prior to the buff, but from blueholes perspective, statistically no one was using them.. but really the winner in it all while the pumpie is amazing, the auto shot gun is actually usable; which felt like never the case. The alternative weapon slot with the drone, med bag, and now scouting scope, and tactical bag are pretty legit.
Right now, I think my biggest sentiment is that all the great editions added in Taego.. needs to be added in all the maps. Taego brought in cluster drops, so its like a ton of crates that have a variety of gear.. and a couple chances for the hightier stuff. As well as self revive and to a much lesser extent the gulag. It also has "hotspots" that offer all the loot that exists in the game rather than map specific loot.
If I play around the usual primetime, anywhere 4-12.. its pretty rare to see bots, maybe more common on like the week nights.. but I also don't play this game hardcore or anything. I just know that I kinda enjoy that MMR is no longer in the game.. nothing more exciting than seeing a big name or a streamer
