The heavy ammo stopping your movement mechanic has got to go. It just doesn’t make sense that a bullet would slow you down when you’re trying to run away. The countless times I try to slide when getting shot up by a spitfire and the mechanic just doesn’t work so you get caught looking like a bot crouching when you’re trying to slide and run away to cover. Especially with how easy it already is to run the spitfire for anybody. I play solo a lot and 1v3ing all the time is hard enough and to win 1v3 your movement has to be on point and it’s not possible when your movement gets completely shut off because you’re getting hit by heavy rounds.

It is universal to all guns, the "heavy ammo only" thing is a myth.
