Exile is a standard weapon, Alloteck is a proto weapon, but we still rather use the Exile.
You say you only use Alloteck with minimun 2 complex dmg mods.

I think you made a mistake here, you are saying that im right

The answer is because an Exile Assault Rifle often outperforms a Boundless Heavy Machine Gun

boundless has alot higher DPS

any outperformance is by the player not the gun in that case (depending on range, if you engage someone while they are in optimal range and your gun isnt then well you deserve to get owned

TL;DR = They work.

Wrong. Aim Assist has been hotfixed and dramatically tuned down.

This is going to hurt some feelings. HIT SCAN weapons vs. Lasers (aim assisted) and Noob tubes. The only people griping about "diversity" in weapons are reallly bad players. The next post will be some d-bag saying how he slaughters with AR's, but only does so-so with everything else. Look up his stats. Add him to your watch list, and look up his stats. He sucks. He actually sucks really bad, and it merely a forum monkey. Thats it. Thats all this forum reaaaallly comes down to. Marginal players post waaaaay more than the top 5%. Fact.

Not only that, they work better than other weapons. Pretty much all of the time.

Hail AR 514. Go AR or go home.

What "other weapons" are there in this game? Seriously. Let's count shall we.

Not including sidearms or AV weapons there are exactly two:

LR
MD

now we can pretty much nix the LR off this list because, for one, it is a good weapon, and the only reason people don't like it is because they either don't want to deal with its CQC limitations or it's over heat. The weapon does just fine killing people other wise, in it's optimal range it is FAR better than the AR. Aside from this how is the laser rifle even really diferent than the assault rifle? They are both line of sight weapons.

So let's call this QQ for what it really is. "noone is using the MD... Whanh.

Well what do you expect? The weapon has a projectile arc, low RoF, can even kill you in close quarters (these are all intended factors). It's a pain in the *** to use and it is suposed to be. This is a weapon for people looking for a challenge, there is nothing wrong with this weapon, it kills people just fine when used/aimed properly (in fact I think there may be some kind of fall off damage bug for explosions, which means that it is functioning better than it should be). If there is any problem at all here it is operator error.

Last I ran the numbers, Dust had 14 weapon types - across all niches. The AR kills more often than 10 of those combined. Yeah, that's a problem. You're right though, there is no point to using any other weapons.

translation: I rock with my AR. This makes me think I have big balls.

Please. Diversity, BTW, is what makes a game interesting. It's also what keeps people playing and paying money.

Hit Scan weapons that aren't lasers need to go. Hit scan is so child's toy when it comes to projectile weapons.

Hail AR 514.

Awwwwww, Buster isn't any good at video games..... :-(

If you think AA is gone, put on a laser and get someone at range. You'll follow them every step of the way.

I agree with the original post. People went into AR because it's familiar. You also have options. Full auto, semi, burst, short and long range. This isn't about a nerf, it's just stating the obvious.

No I am saying that I REALLY like how the weapon handles but I can't kill anything with it with out atleast two damage mods, but that there are situations where I perfer using the burst over the assault even when I'm using damage mods on both simply because the way the weapon handles alows me to put people down more easily in certain situations.
