Your squad loves you young Pig-o-wan. (Image removed from quote.)
Pistols are a bit too strong and most of the Heavy options are obsolete unless in special circumstances(Drop on Cobble, Apps on Inferno, ect ect)I think targeting trains, convoys and barges should have a greater effect and remove the town resupply so you have to defend those if your base is being destroyed.
Nah pistols are fine. You have to remember they are mainly for ECO rounds. Games fine hence why it's been around so many years.
