Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary)
We currently have 2 fire modes: Fire and Aim/Surrender. I'm suggesting a third mode that has a significant trade off in order to mimick the Smartgun's IFF system.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole)
Less FF issues, more strategic use of marine deployed defenses and formations.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc)
This firing mode would allow back line marines to still lay down covering fire without the glaring issue of friendly fire. It would allow you to cover people who are being dragged. It would force runners to be more strategic when picking their fights.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it)
My initial thinking is to reduce move speed, and fire rate. Accuracy could also be reduced if this is not enough for the benefit. This would have no effect on explosive weapons. This could be restricted to Rifles and SMGs, as mass buckshot could be an issue.
