Alright, let's talk about the assault rifle.
Why is it so shit?
Why does it do less damage than the hand pistol?
Why does it sound like a pellet toy?
Will the Postal 2 devs ever fix it? Because right now the only way to do that is to download a mod and lose your ability to gain achievements.

>>1715More importantly, why does firing it drop my FPS to single digits?
No.1730
1. Because it can be fired faster than the pistol, I would assume (granted, pistol still kills faster, funnily enough)
2. I actually never noticed that and liked the way it sounded until now

It's so shite I've never actually used it aside from cheating with endless bouncing cats.

>>1715I never had a problem with it, but you have to be pretty dead-on with tracking targets.

>>1715weapon damage is really random, sometimes enemies go dawn after a headshot and sometimes they need two shotgun blasts rith in the face
the pistol is so damn accurate is almost a sniper rifle

The Assault rifle basically is spray & pray. Which is nigh-useless on higher difficulty levels because a) most enemies have enough HP to headshot you once or twice anyway and b) the assault rifle has an absolutely shitty quality. It's a close quarters weapon really, but again in the higher difficulty settings, close quarters mean that you have to instakill your enemies or they'll shoot you in the face twice and you can call it a day. Hence, you'd use either a shotgun to pop heads, or a cutting melee weapon (i.e. scythe or machete)

If your gun can be used for both close combat and sniping there's something wrong with it. I'm of course talking about The Pistol, it should do a lot of damage up close and personal but have a large drop-off from a medium distance, and all other guns (Even the Shotgun when not up-in-yo-face) are just peashooters. They lack any kind of impact or feeling, and could use a serious overhaul.
Also the sound of the assault rifle was different before we had AWP in the Steam version.

>>1715While I don't agree it perform weak, it does feel weak. The firing animation is definitely not the best
