20-round magazines for VSS

Recommended Posts

Title. These would make this weapon a bit more useful. Since the limited range makes it a shoddy sniper, the stopping power of the round is so-so, the suppressing effect was nerfed to the ground and the 10-round mag makes it a poor choice for close combat, the VSS really is a mediocre weapon. With larger capacity mags (irl these are pretty much standard issue, and there are compatible 30-round mags too iirc) the VSS could serve as a decent jack-of-all-trades weapon. Right now it doesn't hold up to its companion heli-only guns, the LAR or VSD.

They gave it a massive damage buff in 1.06 experimental (seems they do not mind ignoring the weapon's real life characteristics). It does 95 damage, plus 3x armor damage multiplier. Should easily destroy a pristine plate carrier with one shot (in real life, it would penetrate soft armour but be stopped by a hard plate). I don't see why it shouldn't have a 20-round magazine but it is now fairly strong (for better or worse).

Agreed, this should have been ingame from the beginning.

That way you could turn it into an AS Val, so it would have more all around purpose.

This buff just seems silly. Its a bit annoying they are  straying so far away from real gun characteristics and ballistics after they have been realistic for 4 years.
