Suggestion Title: L6 SAW nerf/balance
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Make L6 less powerfull by making it two handed.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): This will stop marines from dual welding it making game little more balanced.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Just make it two handed like other guns like m41a or shotgun.

RE: L6 SAW nerf/balance
L6 is useless as heck already due to its slow fire rate for some reason, making it less powerfull by making it two handed will not do any good, dual welding these things do no good too, you cant really die from a guy who has l6 unless you blindly keep running straight

Its hard to see that someone one of the marines could be actually a russian traitor no?

RE: L6 SAW nerf/balance
Pretty much what MrJJJ said, it's completely worthless and useless.
- Has a really low firing rate, lower then the shotgun's pumping (Depending on how quick people click pump shotgun) and M4A1 / SMG.
- Duel wielding does nothing
- To reload, you have to have a hand free (Making duel wielding even more worthless), click on the gun, pick up an ammo, click it on the gun and then click on the gun to close it (Otherwise you can't shoot).
- You can't put L6 Ammo in your belt. Meaning you are forced to wear a bag and fill it full of ammo, which could hold other things (Such as engineering tools, or grenades and such)
The only good thing about the L6 is it's ammo cap, 50 rounds. But that's pointless with the low firing rate as you'll get off around 3-4 shots before an alien gets in range of you, or runs away. And as far as I know, it's weak as hell.

I never really liked the SAW. We'd be better of getting it replaced with a Smartgun or removing it entirely.

I agree, the SAW is useless. You'd be better off using an SMG, even. The damage isn't significant enough for the very low fire rate.

I'd "turn" SAW into that Half Sniper Rifle with Thermal vision from AvP 2010.

Denied.
Saw is pretty much completly useless as it is, and is not making the conversion to new-bay.
