SCR is the best anti-infantry Light Weapon in the game. You just have to know what you are doing
Yep, well, they're going after you too buddy: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=109861&find=unread

Was never the FotM, just people don't know how to use other weapons effectively. Dumb asses trying to snipe with shot guns and CQC with Laser Rifles.
In other words: Flavor of All Time |

No, that's what I'm saying - it's always been the subject of hate for a while now. The Breach Assault rifle got nerfed into oblivion, the Tactical soon after that (until it made a come back for three freaggin weeks at the beginning of Uprising).
The vanilla Assault Rifle has been subject to all kinds of hell, most notably because back in the day you could get Sharpshooter Proficiency and do full damage at 120 meters, but it was "kinda" balanced because there wasn't any aim assist and you only ever had to worry about the hard core skilled players who can aim without aim assistance.
Suffice to say, people will ***** about whatever kills them and when you don't know what you're doing (running out in the open, not using cover, not being in a team, not understanding the weapon you're using) all of a sudden everything seems over powered because there's no possible way that you could do anything wrong - there's no possible way that someone took advantage of your stupidity.
Hence why when Aim Assist came in 1.4 and the game stopped being "who can circle strafe the fastest to counter terrible aim" half of this community didn't have the skills they needed to react and compensate.
Thusly, AR hatred amplified. Now, CCP will nerf it - and Aim Assist - to the point that we have Team Fortress 514 where the we all have different class names.
Heavy = HMG
Medic = SMG
Scout = Shotgun
Soldier = Plasma Cannon
Commando = Forge Gun (it'll make sense when they nerf everything)
