I never said I was going to buff the freeze, I was saying the freeze would be lower in comparison to the gm4 -which it is- as the gm4 is 0.145 freeze whilst the ion is 0.14 freeze.Originally Posted by D12*
The ion was given a 10 clip because so many people complained about it being slow. It basically has the same firerate as the m4a3 with only a minor freeze difference, buffing it anymore just makes the difference between the m4a3 and the ion almost non existent.
The ion was intended as an event alternative for the gm4, not a reward gun. People didn't like when the firerate was 0.3 even with a 20 clip which was why it was increased and the clip reduced. The whole point of the nerf was to remove the spam, pointless to nerf the gm4 and leave the ion more or less the same as people would just use that instead and the issue would still be present.
Ion is unlikely to be buffed, it was either fast firerate with 10 clip or same firerate as gm4 with 20 clip and the majority of users wanted it to remain fast
