A side note that's partially related to the SCR - I find it rather amusing how the nerf brigade is bitching so much about the Gallente assault rifle when the Amarr assault rifle is almost the same but for a marginally larger amount of dispersion for a slight increase in range.

Well I guess the aim assist helps a lot now with easier tracking and such. The semi auto scrambler is good, I can say better than the TAR, even with its crazy heat build up. But when talking about the assault variant, the AR is better in every way.

keyword: dispersion

A real life example is the M16 and AK-47. Anyone (including a child) can use the AK-47, it's a simple point and spray weapon. But only a trained solider can use the M16 and be BY FAR more effective, because the gun in more technology put into it. The trained solider will be better with the M16,. than the AK-47 time-after-time.

Wow. That WHY thread you posted earlier was dumb, but this statement is in another class altogether.

The only relevant difference between those two guns is the AK-47 is a hardier weapon that doesn't jam nearly as often, but pays for that with lower accuracy due to its parts being machined more loosely. The M16 is the opposite. More technology, lmao!

Yep.
As an SCR user, I can safely say that my beloved SCR can compete and win against an AR any day of the week.

I've fired both and I would describe the AK as A pick-up truck and the M16 is a sports car.

But you use Proto all the time Arky, try out the Standard level for a few matches.

The AScR is harder to fit. It soaks up PG more than the AR does. On a shield suit this may not mean much, but its huge on an armor suit, which needs every bit of PG it can get.

So why doesn't the world's top military use the AK-47, especially these days?
I was talking about the finer point of what makes it lethal, because it pertains to the discussion. Why do all of my posts seem to miss you, and go over your head, but nobody else's? I have a knack of breaking things down to simple points, and discussion. And, I use outside analogies a lot (like the M16 & AK-47 one you just read) to make things even more easy to understand... yet you miss even the most simplistic messages I type on here.
Either your are ignorant, or just looking to b*tch specifically at me, in which I'm flattered... you're probably one of the countless people who circle and hump me in the war barge before every game, aren't you

Oh, and the M16 will jam up about 20-25x less than the AK-47 (because you were no doubt referencing knowledge from the 1970s...)

You know what, you have inspired me, and for that you get a +1.

I have 1.6m SP burning a hole through my virtual pocket and have been trying to figure out what weapon I want to invest in. As a calogi I need a main weapon that can cover a wide variety of gameplay elements, including CQC since I have no sidearm to use. All other weapons were out the window in this regard, except the AR. But the ScR and AScR are both similarly capable, and I am going to give it a try.

When I log in tonight, I am going full blown proto ScR and AScR, to hell with my KDR and to hell with the 140m ISK I have. I am going to force myself to get good with the ScR, and likely will die (a lot) while trying.

I am just so sick and tired of using the AR, and even if I know I will suck with the ScR, I am going to do it anyway because I might actually have some fun while doing it.

Probably because the AK-47 is 66 years old and has gone through many many versions and upgrades through the decades and comparing it to the modern version of another weapon is skewing anything meaningful to support your own point with some fluff and flash which ironically weakens your credibility rather than bolstering it

Kind of funny how if you just said AK-74M this could have been avoided

I never really understood that as well. Maybe because hating the GAR is the new FOTM

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

Felt the need to bump this thread.

As I said I would, I speced into proto ScR and AScR. And I have to say, this weapon is beyond fun!

I did relatively crappy the first few matches, but once I got the hang of it, the ScR is freaking awesome! Being able to absolutely screw somebody up with a well placed charge shot, or just spamming the weapon semi-auto is brutal. This weapon is AMAZING!

Even if a player is tanked (shield or armor), and I land a charge shot, I can finish them off with a few semi-auto shots before they even realize WTF hit them. I was able to nearly 2-hit a heavy with 2 charged shots (and I finished him off with what I had left without overheating). Even with a militia heavy, that is at least 700+ HP

The overheat is pretty crazy since I am not an Amarr assault, but it's still manageable. If I don't charge a shot then I can semi-auto many rounds before OH. If I shoot a charged shot then I am pretty much screwed in CQC if I miss.


I have been AR user for over a year now in this game, and the ScR is a real nice, and much needed, refresher.

I'm already pulling 10+ KDR games with it, and topping the match leaderboards.

Having the power of a sniper and being able to cope with CQC, is pure win. Versatile weapons FTW!!!

Oh the weapon itself not but hating the weapon is quite common around these days...a lot more than usual at least thats my impression

The ScR is better than the TAC AR only if you got all the skills to match it(prof 5, amarr assault proto, 3 complex damage mods) and the AScR just doesn't perform as well as the AR because of the increased dispersion drastically lowering the average DPS you can consistently put out in battles, the increased effective range is also extremely hard to notice from the scramblers.

Also, the TAC AR beats the ScR in close range because you can spam bullets(which miss at close range alot for both of these weapons).

Altogether I'd say both weapons main variants do the job best, the duvolle beats the imperial because its far more reliable and versatile, but the imperial definitely does its niche of medium long range engagements far better. The imperial is a monster with the amarr assault+prof5+3dmg mods, but such a serious SP investment prevents it from ever becoming FOTM.

The biggest thing with the ScR is learning that ir fires on trigger release as opposed to trigger push. As a Metroid veteran, that came easily to me :3
Still a very good and fun gun, just not what you want to take to an Amarr or Gallente brainpan.
