Ever run into a SAW while someone is using OC? OC not only increases the, already huge, damage numbers, it also completely negates the largest disadvantage it has...recoil. Even on PS3 this can make it into a killer when placed in the right hands, don't even want to imagine what it can do on PC...Originally Posted by Mowazzy

forget nerfing them and add a random weapons jam like they actually have.
From what I have heard the SAW is a heck of a lot better regarding jams than the venerable M-60 was. Not had the pleasure of shooting on personally unfortunately.forget nerfing them and add a random weapons jam like they actually have.
Although an ole Ma Deuce is just a BLAST!

I actually just added random weapons jam on the suggestion board. Doubt people will vote "YES" on it though haha. I think it would be an interesting dynamic to the game if there was an off chance that a weapon could jam mid clip.
Well I will vote a yes for it, BRB...

Sadly, I'd end up with more weapon jams than legendaries from lockboxes.
See... This is probably where I kept having the disconnect on my end when I first heard the SAW was gettin' a dmg drop. I've only been running OC for the perk/building up weapon skill points. When I PvP I always use a limited cloak so I can approach a point w/o being completely rolled. I just figured OC with the SAW in PvP was like swatting flies with Hydrogen Bombs. Apparently not everyone displays the same lvl of restraint
If you put OC in the pile of "whynerf" then yea, I can totally see why it's being done. Just my luck to miss out on what all the kool kids are doing in PvP. v.v'
As soon as I get hit with a SAW in PVP my Escape Artist kicks in, I cloak, run behind them and it's game over for that poor shmuck.

Well, once I modded out my first SAW, it became my new favorite weapon. It is the B.F.G. in this game and, as a shooter, there should be one B.F.G. It fits my playstyle.
But it does out DPS other guns in non-crit damage for the most part. If that is a problem for Trion, they should have put SOME effort into really looking at the issue.
If anything, they should have re-visited the gun's recoil and bloom. The saw is SUPPOSED to deal more damage than most other guns- at the expense of recoil and accuracy. The great thing about the weapon system is its DIVERSITY. I have enjoyed switching to other weapons and discovering that all weapon types shine in specific situations, making playing ALL the guns fun. I think the original Devs got this one right.
If they put thought into it, they would have left the damage of the SAW where it was, and maybe significantly increased bloom and decreased accuracy. This would have retained the unique nature of the gun, but made overall, unskilled DPS more in line the other weapons through a lot of missing.
Sadly, they are taking the easy way out and just reducing base damage. Now we will have basically another AR, but with piss-poor accuracy.
must have over 100 hours of PvP if not more.
I SAW has killed me twice I think......
