ME2 LE Combat Remastered

Major features: 

• []Weapon stats & progression overhaul. All weapons feel like deadly sci-fi weaponry, and are alternatives to each other, while having unique "personality", giving the weapon selection screens an actual purpose.

  []Enemy AI no longer unnaturally pin-point accurate. Enemy accuracy depends on their weapon's recoil, their movement, and your movement.

  This greatly changes the ways you can move around, and control the battlefield. []Player class loadouts changed to add more choices of the weaponry that complement your playstyle (or the ones you simply like)

  []Weapon VFX and SFX changes - weapons should look and feel far more powerful and deadly.

  New V1. 0 release, and a new accompanying video!

  Details:

  The core of the combat in vanilla ME2 and ME2:LE (sitting in cover) is primarily enforced by enemies' ability to deliver incredibly precise full-auto fire, regardless of distance or weapon used. In stark contrast, your own weapons do almost no damage (barring few exceptions) while having nowhere near the accuracy of AI enemies. This makes weapon-heavy classes such as Soldier feel very underwhelming to play, especially after the magnificent gunplay of ME1:LE - which is what inspired the creation of this mod.

  This mod aims to fix this by:

  1) Introducing enemy AI accuracy penalties for various in game actions

  Enemy accuracy will suffer when they:
  • []Sustain automatic fire (their weapons also have recoil)

    []Are moving

  • Are trying to hit a moving target

  This means that a moving enemy trying to hit a moving target with automatic fire will be about as accurate as you'd expect. You'll catch a stray bullet here and there but they won't shoot every round through the same hole in your armor anymore. As a counter-balance to enemies hitting less, their weapon damage and initial accuracy has been increased where appropriate.

  This also means that an enemy who took their time to aim from a supported and covered position will be slightly more dangerous than normal.

  Further, the enemy reaction time (time between spotting and starting shooting) has been increased from gamer-level reaction times, to something more fitting within the gameplay flow. The reaction time (aiming time) also now differs according to weapons the enemies are using - they will aim faster with lighter, smaller weapons.

  2) Weapon Re-balancing
