Its either;
A) Full auto AR users have decided they dont want to be tryhards anymore (Highly unlikely)
or,
B) They're practicing for the Combat Rifle.
Because of their rising popularity, I'd just like to say....
I used Burst ARs before they were cool.

They used to be my favorite. I remember when the AUR proto burst had a scope but no dot in the middle so I had to aim by firing a burst to track the shot and I still loved. Maybe I'll try them out again.

LOL at (A). Like that's going to happen.
When I first started Dust, the Burst was the first weapon I skilled into and I used it for such a long time before realizing the full auto was simply better.

I switched to the Burst a few weeks ago because I knew the CR was coming. I much prefer the ACOG to the open sights. |

The Burst would be my go-to if it didn't have the scope. Iron sights or a Red Dot would suit my much better. I hope the Scope on the Combat Rifle is actually different (ie: better). If not I am probably going to go with the Full Auto version.
Right now I dumped the standard AR variants and went to the Breach. I love it. |

I use it to train my aim and mental discipline , one day I hope to be able to use a fully automatic rifle with my own controlled bursting....
Pulling out an Allotek with 3 dmg mods can definitely be surprisingly deadly and fun.
Burst experts, ADS or hipfire, optimal range for hipfiring or simply not worth it?
Before I log on and try it out, been a few weeks since I used it last. |

You guys ever play the game where you see a new Dev reply and you try to guess who replied before you open the thread...
I was right on my guess for some reason i knew it was going to be Rattati :)

It's sort of like the scrambler rifle in that regards then. If you can get within shotgun range then sure, hipfire. Otherwise ADS is your best bet.

That is unfair.
That means that if any corps attack them, he could use his dev powers to, nerf their weapons, or make it so that they can't get into the match.
Rattati are you in Nyain San?

At least for the burst HMG ( i remember you mentioning you use one), unless your target is within 10m I always ADS, since you have to be more precise with it I like to take my time with my shots and line them up better than I do with an HMG. Hope that helps. |

I love the phrase tryhard, you can easily tell when someone's feelings have been hurt.
I may have deleted DUST but I still care deeply about this game.

I strongly recommend finding a small target (the triangle on the legs of an installation work great) and practicing hitting that one day as you strafe. This will train you to aim for small targets and, subsequently, the head of your enemy. I don't recommend trying to land headshots on faster moving targets like Caldari or Minmatar guys (it's less important as they have less HP) but it's very important for other, slower and more durable targets.
Once you get into the habit of aiming for the head it's best to know -when- to use that knowledge because if they're directly engaging you it's generally not a good idea to stay aiming down the sights, especially if you're an armor tanker and move more slowly.
With that, the burst rifle is amazing in it's design and the flash DPS is incredible for fast moving targets if only for the shock value - a lot of guys will reconsider attacking if they get reduced down to a third of their shields from a single burst. It's flaw, however, is that it's incredibly hard to keep those groupings together with hip-fire and you'll be left with a situation in which it's honestly best just to remove their shields and switch to an SMG due to it's higher armor damage and higher rate of fire (rate of fire is key for hip-fire engagements).
Hope that helps.
Oh! Love your suit by the way Set as my favorite in the quarters.
