yea but if theyre "average" then no one will use it. all 4 modes need to be better than each other in unique ways for this weapon to succeed. assault type should be at least somewhat close to RE (though obviously not exactly like it), SMG should be better than the Howling with somewhat higher range, and the Rifle should be like DV carbine with better accuracy. if it isn't then well one of these types will be used more (imo assault). but tbh in this game its all about the range, so i think that other than sniper, we'll probably see this used as an assault more than anything.

Given that (hypothetical):

Assault- decent damage, decent range, decent accuracy

SMG- High damage, short range, Decent accuracy

Rifle- Decent damage, long range, low accuracy (DV Carbine style)

, then Assault is your best bet because it is the most well rounded, plus it would allow you to use a head that isn't one of the masks ( like maybe anti-explosive or the anti-trap medal one).

over all just feel like this wont be as good as the hype is, because one of the modes will be much better than the others. if not much better then at least decently better to warrant that it should be used more than any other type.
