The SAW has gotten some changes in hopes of sparking more variety in nuke plans and maybe someone will actually buy it now.
Main Changes:
- SAW now requires an empty hand to fire properly or you'll get heavy recoil and the gun may even fly out of your hand.
- The generic ammo the SAW comes with does 35 damage with the burst being lowered to 3, also lowering the total fire delay.
- Cost lowered to 30 from 40, ammo now costs 7 instead of 12.
- Three new ammo types for purchase-
- Bleeding - Minor brute, causes a lot of bleeding on hit.
- Hollow Point - No armor penetration in exchange for 45 per hit. A full 3-burst will drop a regular crewmember and leave an officer on the verge of crit.
- Armor Penetrating - Reduced damage in exchange for ignoring most standard armor and being better equipped against the tougher bullet-resistant gear.
- Incendiary - Little damage, but ignites targets on hit. Its like a flamethrower but with bullets, only good things can come from this.
