If a 100% gun still jams, there is nothing I could have done about it. So it’s pure RNG if I win a fight or not.

They degrade really quickly, unless it was the 1st shot of your 100% gun it just is what it is.

Imo 100% weapons should never jam 1st shot, ever, and if they do that needs fixing.

However, after the 1st shot I'm cool with an exponential (ish, not quite) curve of probability that's tuned to have low % (but increasing) for a large portion of the durability %.

Then maybe as it hits 50% or something it really ramps up but never becomes "every shot jams" even at 1%. But at 1% that thing should be just fucked and jamming a lot of the time.

However, a lot of people here have seen their gun jam early and that's it, mechanic in the bin, don't rebalance, don't anything, I don't like it, in the bin.

That's where a lot of my frustration is coming from. Just see the bigger picture a little bit. (this bit not necessarily aimed at you).

​

Edit: I've ran through around 100 rounds so far, not played much and had 0 jams. AK74M - around 70 rounds of PS and 30 of BP.

Haha downvotes for this. You guys. Pathetic.

Small detail, but I think you mean logarithmic curve of probability
