Balancing power gun proliferation

[Kegereneku]

I mean, well ..... yeah, that is realistic. Generally, firearms will "beat" bows 9 times out of 10. Faster firing rate, larger capacity, more "damage".

I personally believe that the survival rifle is one of the "best" firearms in the game; good balance between range, fire rate, damage, and set-up time. But that is neither here nor there.

I suspect Tynan intentionally made it easier to fight tech-enemy to gather feedback on late game. At least it would make sense to me for a dev to do that.
Now that a scenario system is coming, all bet are off. Player will be able to start at very different levels of wealth/difficulty.
