Tasers are bad. Stun bullets too.

[mozi]

I can confirm Kiki's observation. On a server of 30 people or less, there usually aren't any officers around - at best, there's a detective. Nerfing the primary ranged weapon (up to making it single-shot, deary me) probably isn't going to encourage players to chose the job. And to be honest, I don't think tasers are that problematic. There only hold enough charge for four shots, stun duration fall-off is quite significant and in my experience, many people fail to hit their opponent anyways if the latter is moving around unpredictably.

I feel like the original suggestion is not so much a nerf as like a sidegrade but do agree with this sentiment wholeheartedly

admittedly I haven't been playing much in the past month or so but when I hear people bitching about supersec I have to wonder if it's a timezone specific phenomenon because I always see sec abandoned/staffed by people who picked random and immediately say "oh fuck no not sec" when they get the job
