This is the first gun to introduce damage falloff. I wanted a way to cement the intended range of guns without relying on random bullet spread, which has proved an inconsistent and annoying way of regulating distance. However, I think damage falloff is in many cases a frustrating tool which discourages the use of weapons at longer distances, so there is a balance to be struck. For the time being I won't be adding it to anything except shotguns. The Shotgun has also had damage falloff added in this update, with 1x damage until 20m, then decreasing to 0.1x damage at 70m.
And yes, you can use it in time trials. Have fun!
