I really like this idea! It seems to fit to the game really well, only thing I would criticize is the weapon choice, since I don’t think a reflex sight or a drum fed smg would work to well.

Thanks for the feedback! For the weapons, I’m trying to find ways to make them stand out from the other weapons in the game. I think this is especially difficult to do with side arms, so I thought the reflex would make for a fun little addition to make it stand out more.

Also, for the drum fed, I figured a good way to balance out a faster reload time would be to give it a fairly low fire speed for an SMG.

I think that would even work for the EV especially on those tight and difficult repairs on the elevator
Bringing this 4 wheeled pain even slightly forward would actually help sometimes
Or for C4 for stopping the timer for some time.
Just an idea but funny enough pretty balanced.
