From what I could test around with, the Thompson is basically an SG but worse in every way besides having a better headshot modifier and stability. It has around the same base damage but lower firerate, lower accuracy and the gayest damage falloff I've ever seen. While hugging someone, my thompson does 62 damage. Take 3 steps back and i suddenly do 40. Take 1 more step back and i do 30. That's half my damage loss from a couple of steps. It also has terrible reload speed. For those who have never used a thompson before, it has 2 deploy and 2 reload animations.
The first deploy animation is decently fast. Around as fast as the mac10. The second one is slightly slower, nothing against that.
The "quicker" reload animation is already slow. the slower one is so slow that i have enough time to go finish a worm queen fight with a rifle before being able to shoot a thompson again.
My suggestion would be to make it a bit more like the daybreak. A slow, bulky gun that can hit hard when needed. Slightly higher firerate (around 9 bullets per second), better accuracy, better reload speed (or at the very least make it use only the faster reload animation. its slow enough) and a more reasonable damage falloff.
