That's all they said, I'm guessing whatever buffs they've made have just made the weapons better in general, not specifically telling us what exactly they've done.

FAD - increased damage and range.
M16A4 - increased damage and fire rate.
AK47 - reduced kick.
UMP45 - increased damage.
MP5 - increased fire rate.
PM9 - reduced kick.

My prediction is the FAD is going to be ridiculous if that's true, damage and range + an incredibly high fire rate for an AR, nice! Smile

Yeah, the FAD is awesome, it's low damage was compensated with a high ROF, but with the buff, to awesome Smile
