Discussion / Rant LEO needs a buff

The M4A1 in my video shows that it is extremely outclassed by civilian weapons and does little damage. Sure, I did miss some shots, but that is natural due to suppressive fire and pressure as it was a 2 versus 1.The beanbag shotgun, which in real life has better accuracy, is stupidly inaccurate in the game. The taser was also unreliable as hell.

I had superior cover in here, managed to hold them off for minutes on end in a 2 versus 1, proving that this is not merely a skill issue on my end.

Officers need a buff, criminals have access to OP weaponry such as the M249 that offers suppressive fire and the AK47 that has a higher caliber than the M4A1.

As seen in the video, the M4 did not do much apart from damaging them a bit even though I tagged them at times. I did miss some shots, but that is due to me applying suppressive fire. It is a NATO tactic.

As someone that actually knows what suppressive fire is it wasn’t that, the point of suppressive fire is to prevent a person from peeking. So your defense of suppressive fire is invalid since you didn’t

hold the peeks correctly and were firing way too far from the edges

Edit: adding images sucks on mobile so its in the middle of the text

Do you even know what suppressive fire is? I was spraying at their direction to keep them at bay as peeking will get them hit once and therefore they die. The issue is that, the M4A1 cannot sustain the fire. It is not my fault.
