umm, thats a 404 link

Actually, it fits quite well with the races.

Combat rifle actually has the highest RoF of all rifles, in line with the HMG and SMG (keep in mind the HMG also does burst). To balance this, they make it burst, but the rate of fire for the bursts is still super fast. This means that you're more likely to hit a player with all 3 rounds than you are to hit someone with 3 rounds of an assault rifle. This is especially good for heatshots. It being a projectile weapon, it does more damage to armor just like the rest of the minmatar weapons.

The Rail Rifle is a slow firing weapon with a charge effect just like every other railgun in the game, except that it's also a rifle so it is able to fire rounds more quickly. The slower fire rate allows for more damage, but requires a very skilled player to use correctly. This makes it a lot like the sniper and forge guns, which require that the player values accuracy to make sure the damage goes where it should.

I'm guessing that the Assault combat rifle will funtion much like the regular assault rifle, and the Assault rail rifle will be more like the Assault Scrambler...that is, good at close range, but not as good as the standard one at long range.

Eh.
It's been known for months that the combat rifle would be a burst weapon and that the rail rifle would be more of a breach weapon.

Also, you may get what you want for the combat rifle in the form of the rumoured precision rifle. SoonGäó.

Combat Rifle has automatic and tactical.

rail rifle only has auto.

Maybe they should have burst, too?

While I frown at have the rail rifle have charge up time, the charge up will be so negligible, it will not really impact performance.

I think CCP should dial down the RRs damage a bit so it's DPS is less then the Blaster Rifle (Rail Rifle-420 Blaster Rifle-425) so it doesn't become the new omnigun.

That, or increase the amount of dispersion when hip firing to something like Tac.

TBQH, I'd prefer if they just dialed back the rail rifles damage so it and is Gallente counterpart have a large difference in usability.

I'm not going to be satisfied unless rail rifle fire leaves trails of tiny smoke rings.

Its going to look like lightning

/woosh

Honestly if the rof is to slow for the rail it won't matter how much range it has it will still suck try the current breach and even within 1-10m you still get stomped and that's its sweet spot soo...
