As far as autofire rules go, the core mechanic in SR3 is... a less than optimal aproximation of what autofire should be.

Personally, I wouldn't mind if what's the core mechanic becomes the Optional Rule, replaced by some variation of the Suppressive Fire or the Searching Fire rules as the new default.

For all we know the game's already 90% written, but hey, wishful thinking makes for a nice idle past time.

Who else wants to see autofire revamped?
