The shotgun is the only primary weapon without splash damage designed for close range, so it should have a longer range to help it compete better in CQB with SMG and ARs. The shotgun shouldn't compete with the AR for range. It's a shotgun! Give it a higher damage rate to make it as worthwhile as the AR if needed, but keep it close range. The shotgun's range is long enough as it is.
CCP shouldn't model other weapons after the AR. Balance is key, but not by turning every other weapon into an AR. Variety is key!

That's not true. If you look at the damage in half a second, the sniper rifle will outperform other light weapons. But killing a heavy with a sniper rifle takes up to 8 hits and 2 reloads. This can be done much faster and easier with an AR.

If CCP happens to Nerf this gun, I hope it can still live up to its description, the most advanced weapon of its class. Do you believe all the sales crap that's printed on the box?
Because that's what it is - sales crap. It doesn't literally mean that the AR should outperform any other light weapon in the game.

But only if all the shots are on target. With limited scope. And the target has no rep. And the target stays within reach for a full 16 seconds.
How often is that?
As D Legendary Hero said, an assault rifle can accomplish this in 2.27 seconds. So please don't pretend the sniper rifle is OP. |
