The hop-up changes in Season 3

So if any of you guys watched the videos of the Game Changers that played the new map already, you might have heard about the hop-up changes coming with the new season.

IF YOU DONT WANT ANY SPOILERS DONT READ ANY FURTHER!

My info comes mostly from this video from JackFrags.

So at long last the Disruptor rounds and the Skullpiercer hop-ups are gone. And 2 new hop-ups have arrived: the Anvil Receiver for the R-301 and the Flatline, and the Double tap trigger for the G7 and the Eva-8.

The Anvil receiver will boost your single-fire damage, but at a reduced fire rate and increased ammo cost. It will cost 2 ammo per shot if you fire it in single-fire mode. From the looks of it you can still use the full-auto mode like you used to.
And in the video you could see that the R-301 bullets were red when the hop-up was attached, and I asume the same will go for the Flatline bullets.

The Double tap trigger will let you fire 2 shots per trigger pull in rapid succesion, and will be usable for the Eva-8 and the G7. Personaly I will probably just miss 2 shots per shot with the G7 instead of 1 now, but the hop-up on the Eva-8 will most likely shred anyone at close range.

With these changes the weapons with no hop-ups include the new Charge rifle (which is a normal weapon, instead of being a care package weapon), the care package weapons, the R-99, the longbow and the wingman (which both lost their Skullpiercer now), the Spitfire and the Hemlock.

I hope I didnt forget anything, and I might have missed some additional info, so please let me know if I have to correct something and I will get on it ASAP.
