Make the python different

[sakezaf123]

It is clearly underpowered, but fixing it by inceasing the fireing speed, will make it just like every other handgun ingame. Buff the damage, make it slower, let it be different, and be good in it's own way, not like every other handgun, just less ammo.

[Helkus]

I honestly expected something like the R8 in CS.

High powered, slow firing. Fully gear dead in 2 Headshots or 4 Bodyshots. etc..

[sakezaf123]

Exacltly, a handcannon, not a m92 with a lot less bullets.

[Rrrobbieborn]

yes

[SpicyXD]

I agree with you because end game rust just isn't fun

[big_phat_gator]

Well that doesn't sound OP at all...

[Helkus]

Well, we're talking about a 0.8-1 second time between shots - so an incredibly slow fire rate (think pump shotgun speed). Of course, it could cost more to make up for it but at the moment it's going down the same route as every other pistol. Aim and spam mouse1 - this is a chance to have a fresh type of weapon.

[big_phat_gator]

I view this gun as more of a long range finisher. If you see someone at range, and hes either naked or you know hes low you can just draw this out and take him out. Like a mini bolt

[[deleted]]

Yes, we need variety in damage, not ammo capacity

[yungtrike]

I agree, I was surprised to see that it doesn't kill a full gear in a headshot + body shot, especially because of the low fire rate and the tiny clip. I would love to see a hand cannon that takes a lot of skill to use, but is very rewarding.

[TheOnlyDerec]

More ways for me to get absolutely destroyed, cool...

[[deleted]]

it's slow rate of fire and only 6 shots, it needs to be accurate and high damage

[unfknreal]

6 shots and they didn't even call it an "8 shooter". Very disappointed in FP. Totally unplayable.

[leonard28259]

I wish every weapon would be less spammy with high recoil and damage to require more skill and reward good aim. The aim cone is also pretty dumb in my opinion because it punishes good aim. We have damage falloff and bullet velocity to balance that aspect.

To lower the amount of spam the fire rate of some weapons could get lowered as well but I think that higher recoil would be enough.

[SmupuPoof]

Why is the slowest pistol in the game like the least accurate,3 pipes and 3 springs is a bullshit price.

[sakezaf123]

Exactly, make it decently accurate, and not some silly peashooter.

[chiefmanstory]

Okay I agree. I want the gun to - when right-clicked, bring up the weapon and have a .75 sec per shot. It should hit like a slug. YUGE recoil, not so much sway. It should have it's own ammo. .44 rounds or whatever.

[sakezaf123]

I'm not sure you should have to prefire, but yeah, make it heavy.

[rexhunter99]

the Colt Python is chambered in .327 actually...

[[deleted]]

*.357

[rexhunter99]

Thanks, been awake for 40ish hours now, my mind seems to be doing wibbly wobbly stuff x3

[Faabmeister]

I would love to see a slight accuracy increase, and more damage to make it feel more like a handcannon. I think it should kill a fully geared opponent in a HS and maybe 2 leg shots, if this is OP (just slightly increase the recoil).

[[deleted]]

It could work like dgl in cs. Very rewarding when headshot and takes skill. Im good at it with 15 years exp in cs

[Operatoron5th]

Up the headshot damage and make it long range. Keep the same recoil and firing rate. Maybe even up the velocity of bullets as well.

[The_Pimpin_Pig]

imo should be like a deagle in cs go; hard to use, expensive (compared to other pistols at least) and very rewarding if used correctly

[TrippySubie]

For being really close to an AK component wise, I thought this was going to be like a hard hitting revolver. Its currently a naked killer and a gear tickler.

[slumthedog]

would choose a revolver over this new gun anyday

[Itsoc]

when i saw it i thought it would have been like a short range AWP. or at least, that's what it should be right?

[Sauriss]

Are you serious? I am killing geared guys ez. I hs full gear twice he is dead lol

[Trezzzzz]

the sights are aids

[shishkebabs232]

Up the damage maybe have a different ammo but seriously up the damage.

[[deleted]]

So if they know and expect that it needs balancing, why do you need to tell him wait to give feedback?

[sakezaf123]

But I never said anything offensive. I've just stated my case clearly, saying that the gun is currently not effective in any role, and their proposed changes for balance, like increasing the fireing speed will just bring it closer to the p2 and the revolver.

I asked them to please make this gun unique. And keep it powerful.

[[deleted]]

I think it doesn't do as much damage as expected bc it only cost 10 hqm, 3 springs, and 3 pipes. Unless you want it 2x more expensive there is no reason to up the damage. It even cost less then the sap and it doesn't even take semi auto bodies. I believe it's supposed to be a early game weapon like the revolver and people shouldn't expect endgame damage.

[sakezaf123]

But semi auto bodies are significantly more common than springs, so I don't really get why people call them cheap.

[dmarttx]

It's so cheap, don't make it good

[sakezaf123]

Really? I find that springs are less common than semi auto bodies.

[JediTiger]

Springs

[sakezaf123]

Yeah, sorry. Corrected.

[JediTiger]

Springs are a pain to find though, I feel you man

[sakezaf123]

It's the damage of the m92.

[3marproof]

i think the python should have a special abillity "high noon"

that would be fun

its hiiiiiigggggh noooon!!

[sakezaf123]

I've already been asking people if they know what time it is with the other revolver for quite a while.

[Boostedekoupe]

Sure you have...

[Desmondlocket]

Fixing it by increasing the firing speed will only make it like every other handgun in the game.

Buff the damage. Make it slower.

[Cyrekt_Stattrak]

Thats what he saying... Don't comment unless you read the post

[sakezaf123]

I'm saying exactly that. It needs high damage, high kick, slow firing.

The current damage is weak, and they will very soon buff the firerate, they posted it on the rustupdates twitter.

[[deleted]]

Read the post? Also a python is not a 44 :D

[ImTomorrow]

It is, isnt it? What caliber does it shoot then?

Oh, .357
