i accept your offer to remove sr8 provided psg gets 3 bullets, insta-frags on chest area and has no movement penalties.

(and gets sr8's sound, and model)

(ok, and name)

[Woekele]

But not lethal on other parts?

feet could get nothing provided the one shot screams "OH MY FOOT!".

It is definitely underpowered in comparison to others, but to fix it would probably only require a slight tweak.  I understand that it is very difficult to balance, but I do think that if you hit a chest with no vest that person should die unless there is someone standing there with a medpack who immediately starts healing while the player does as well.

I dont agree that the PSG1 is at all underpowered.
I use two weapon load outs, one of them is a PSG1 the other is a M4 based loadout.
Its a harder weapon to use well when compared to most other weapons, but imo more effective when you have it mastered.
The role it plays is a fairly obvious one imo, its for the offensive sniper it somewhere inbetween the g36 and sr8, it really comes into its own when you have multiple enemys either charging you or even better slightly distracted, it may not fit in amazingly well with Team Survive but in BM and CTF its a usefull weapon. The 5 Bullet clip should allow you to take down two nme's without too much trouble. It also allows much quicker weapons witch time after youve taken a shot, which is another huge advantage over the sr8.

I like it.

i use it a lot in a big open map, let's say ryadh, no kevlar, rushing with mp5 (laser + silencer)taking out the sniper at the far end of the line and then switching to psg from behind their line :, they never know what hits 'em hehe

Well most of people dont use it seriously (in clanwars).

When people play with it, its often noobs or people just trying it out for fun.

I think Sr8 is over-powered compared to it, take a bullet out of sr8 and add it on psg1 

Anyway, woekele, plz dont flame me, i sweat easely!

[Woekele]

lol?

[mitsubishi]

but also sr8 is for noobs.

I agree that PSG1 is weaker than SR8 but for me its ten times more fun to use PSG1 and pick out noobs across the map 

And basically that is its only advantage it very amusing weapon, maybe in 4.1 PSG1 should have ability to hit vital organs so you had a chance to get a lucky instant kill shot when aiming at enemy torso.
