you shouldn't announce nerfs to the public because nocebo can be really powerful and people will think the weapons are now worse than they actually are. hiding nerfs leads people to think that stuffty weapons are overpowered and you can laugh at them when they tell you to nerf it even though you already did |

for reference, the reload increase was from 0.64 seconds to 0.84 seconds |
