MentalreBalance

This is my humble attempt at creating a different, balanced, titanfall 2 meta. The goal has been to make each gun worth using without noticably increasing the quick and intense TTK of titanfall, instead giving each gun strenghts and weaknesses making none a jack of all trades. Making any one gun more equally effective when wielded with skill and situational awareness, and fun, always. Changes are extensive, and the mod can be used server side only, though this will cause some wierdness clientside. None of it is game-breaking. Feedback is extremely welcome, as I can't possible ever test my changes in truly all possible situations, nor be equally skilled with every gun.

If you'd like to avoid the client-side glitches, simply install the mod client-side, as well.

The server side only issues are caused by client/server conflicts with guns that have modified clip size (client can try to reload even when server considers gun full), modified spread behaviour (hipfire indicators will jitter), and other changes such as the quite different behaviour of the charge rifle. However, the issues are visual only.
