Description of the idea: Fix or improve the burst fire, making it more controllable than other modes. Due to the weapon update (and marksmanship update) the M16 and SG550 (also MP5 with its burst fire) have become very unpopular choices due to automatic firearms taking over and burst fire having very high recoil on these weapons, even with compensators.
Burst fire felt very different before the weapon update. Bursts were actually going on your target on medium range engagements while also having a noticable delay before you could fire another burst. You can spam it which feels very weird (and admittedly shouldn't be done with these weapons) and makes them hard to use but even if you use them as intended.
I made this thread because of a old bug report but I was hoping that these guns could get a buff instead if devs have no idea wtf I'm talking about because of their high recoil and literally seeing no use now a days https://github.com/FredyH/Perpheads-Issues/issues/743
Why should this be added? (pros): Burst fire weapons such as the M16 and SG550 actually being used. Both of them excel at their job but sadly only at single fire modes and having no viability in close quarters. Back pre-TFU update I ran with the SG with burst fire, it was pretty fun to use but it's hard to show any footage of it in action.
What negatives could this have? (cons): None that I can think of, other than these weapons finally seeing some use again.
