be a little less realistic/grounded with the approach to the mod as a whole

a bit vague, but let me explain

as much as i want MWC to be the most realistic and absolute best tactical gun mod for minecraft, there wont be much appeal to that if you arent person that is looking for a mw2019 sim in minecraft.

it would be better if MWC focused more on building an identity with features that most gun mods simply dont have, like a better implementation of the mod within the world your playing in. So far we just have people with guns running around and shooting whatever they see, which can be a challenge early game but gets really boring after you get your first gun

the solution to this is maybe add more mobs that dont use guns, counter-intuitive but heres my idea:

instead of relying on terrorists/npcs with guns who can barely take 4-5 bullets, for future/upcoming versions, maybe make mobs that actually are a challenge to fight even with a gun, a good example would be the baron of hell from DOOM. Not the hardest fight but something that would incentivize actually having to create a gun

now im not saying that every mob should be a giant beast with 5000hp, you could also have stuff like the flood from Halo, small spider-like mobs to a zombie like creature thats just a bit stronger

another feature that might make MWC standout and be more interesting to download and use is just better compatibility with other mods

now im not talking about the guns itself, more-so stuff like the ores/ingots and how theyre created, MWC could be a bit more interesting if we could use the machines from Immersive Engineering to help in creating the materials for the guns, ofcourse with crafting recipes as they are now. It would be too easy to create a single gun, so i also recommend maybe increasing what you need to craft to make a gun.

maybe make the individual parts of the gun be what you need to make the gun itself, which might double the gunmetal count, but with the mentioned compatibility with Immersive Engineering, probably will feel more like a natural progression than the one we have right now

and make the benches for the guns harder to make

now im not expecting any of i said to suddenly be in the next update, stuff like this doesnt just appear in 2 months, im just recommending ideas/possible directions MWC could take after all the required gun remasters and bug fixes are in
