2 years ago I don't like this.
Nerf extended magazines by decreasing movement speed by 15% if they're equipped.
I highly doubt any spammer particularly cares about their dodging. All they care about is ratatatata. I highly suspect this nerf would not change much. I suppose it would make them slightly easier to kill, but, let's face it - with the exception of high burst damage weapons (Crossbow, SawedOof), Extended Mags is really not that big of a problem, and nobody really complains about it.
But if you must nerf Extended Mags, i'd rather go for something more thematic. E.g. reload time +100%, making it less of a "haha i can spam for longer if i want to" perk and more of a "i deliberately choose to spam for longer and will be punsihed if i don't do so".
Or, if you hate spam as much as i do, perhaps a better (more skillful) change would be to make the first bullet in mag deal 75% of its normal damage, and the last bullet deal 125% of its damage. That way, not reloading is rewarded whilst spamming isn't (not directly, at least).
Delete express ammo. Replace with a special (https://github.com/deferred-impact/battledudes-issue-tracker/issues/81 ). Delete kevlar, replace with an armor pack special. (Or at least make kevlar users noticable, as outlined in https://github.com/deferred-impact/battledudes-issue-tracker/issues/21 .)
I fail to see the need. These perks are problematic purely because it's impossible to tell a player is using them before a bullet hits. #21 would fix these perks. I fail to see how turning them into specials would fix anything.
Rework sprinter into more of a dodge perk that gives a 15% overall speed boost that lasts about half a second and can be used with a key like f. It should have a cooldown of about 15 seconds.
No. Perks are perks, they work passively. What about mobile players? Their screen already looks silly. And if you're a button addition enthusiast, perhaps it would be wiser to get #63 implemented first.
Either delete under pressure or at least nerf it more. Like down to 8%.
Nerfing it would make it into a useless perk (another "None" perk) so it's pointless.
Deleting it would be quite cool. It's a dumb perk that lets players completely avoid a very important mechanic (the firing slowdown). But, when was the last time Sarunas deleted any item?

Buff kill regen so that you regenerate a bunch of health (like 20 something) right away. However, make it so that kill regen users are distinguishable somehow. I would want them to have red particles around them similar to surviv, or perhaps a red glow.

Make equipment collector more skill-based: provides a 25% decrease to special regeneration time by default, plus a little bit of time deducted for each kill. Rewards epic gaming skills.
