would also like to mention that slowness is brewable, and throwing them on enemies in close range takes lot more skill and seems a lot more fair than machine gun spam giving it

^^^

also give the machine gun user like slowness 3 or something, it only makes sense. carrying a heavy gun slows your running speed and then firing it should slow you down even further

oh ye thats true, so people dont spam it on ur face 5 block away and just politely run back to their own ganks

Just shoot back ._.

It is hard to understand Novaman...

Litterally the only reasons they exist

XSkull there are light machine guns too so slowness 3 wouldnt be reasonable for all

lol people r talking about holding heavy guns should make u slower we are literally talking about a game in where u can hold 255744 killos of gold in ur inventory

Enorme has a point there ngl

he doesn't tbh

He has a point but his math is very much wrong by a longshot, a block in MC is 1Cubic meter, a cubic meter of gold weighs 19,282kgs, a inventory of gold weighs 44,425,728kgs

But as that has been said, using "Steve's superhuman strength" to justify him being able to sprint while holding a heavy machine gun is very unrealistic, We are trying to balance guns, not cut the inventory down to legit 1 inventory slot with 3/4 of its stack limit, because. The average man/woman can lift 25kgs.

guns are already balanced

if ur talking about realism then take a look at this suggestion https://ccnetmc.com/suggestions/view/1148-make-shooting-from-skybase-bannable/

would be funny to get slowness from a gun when you can hold 7184.90304 kg of gold in one hand
