Max, I dont know why you think the VHS is op.
I've posted about this a million times, but I'll just reiterate:
-
The VHS has insanely low recoil. The vertical recoil is the lowest of all the assault rifles and the same as the MP7 (/w a Foregrip). The horizontal recoil is a bit higher than other 5.56 weapons at 9, but you'll never notice that anyway because of how insignificant that is.
-
The VHS has the highest firerate of all the assault rifles at 857 RPM, beating the M4A1, which had the highest firerate before with 741 RPM. The MP7 has 900 RPM, just as a comparison.
-
The VHS-2 has the same shots-to-kill as every other assault rifle in CQB (guaranteed two-shot kill to the chest, with or without armor). However, this also makes it the deadliest AR by far with the near-MP7 firerate and virtually no recoil.
-
The VHS-2 is available to Security Rifleman, so every player on the Security faction can grab it.
-
The VHS-2 costs the same as an M4A1 despite being a direct upgrade in near-every regard except for velocity (which makes no difference in STK in CQB).

Personally I think the new guns are kinda shit or at least on par with other guns in their class...
Incorrect for the reasons listed above.

...I've already gone back to my fal/l85 combo.
Well, it's better than the L85 by a landslide. 857 RPM is a tad better than 652 RPM. Battle rifles are probably still the meta, but it's annoying how powerful the VHS-2 is considering how easy it is to control (hence me calling it a n00b gun).

Maybe because they're new and everyone is using them so it seems like it's all you die to?
I haven't been playing PvP and I'm not going to unless they actually fix the gunplay and/or add Ambush.

IDK I just dont think they're that great and worth making a stink about.
You're probably the first person I've heard say this.

But if it really bothers you please dont ask for nerfs. Ask for buffs. We dont need this game getting any softer.
Buffs to what? Other guns? I've been asking for that for half a year now. Sadly, NWI doesn't care.
