no stopping power : freezing time = cant shoot

[FreakyQueen]

i think making zones weapons not having any stopping ("freezing") power would balance the game a lot.
many times a character can die from making 1 mistake of hitting a stream of bullets, and those bullets are fired so fast they cannot escape. also, when fighting a strafing enemy: if the enemy is above you and a bit to the left, firing down and strafing right and there is a wall to the right: you have to either move down and away or into the line of fire -- if you move at the enemy they can easily step aside, backwards and then towards you again, threatening you with their fire.
when a bullet hits, i think the character cant fire for time equal to the freezing time, but it doesnt interupt their movement at all. its worth a shot to try it out..
