Snipers
Sniper rifles have received major changes in the snapshot. Scoping is now triggered by sneaking while holding the sniper. Scoping greatly increases the accuracy of a sniper, without the scope the bullet the sniper fires flies out of control. Snipers also have much more massive recoil while unscoped than while scoped. All snipers consume metal slugs as ammunition in the snapshot.

The player has the ability to walk around while scoped in the snapshot. Sharpshot armor grants a 30% damage increase to snipers (as opposed to the previous 25%). If the sniper is the mark maker or moon maker, it gets a 35% damage increase instead.

Sniper stats and abilities are unchanged in the snapshot, with exception of Mark Maker and Moon Maker - the 60% damage increase from sharpshot armor has been decreased to 35%. BayonetteSR now has an attack speed of 0.8.

Cannons
All guns classed as cannons do extra damage to armored enemies in the snapshot. All sticky bomber weapons have been classed as cannons.

To use a blaster, player has to hold their use button. The player will recieve slowness effect, and blaster will auto-fire after some delay.
