The ScRs usage has skyrocketed and is now almost as common as the vanilla AR while being EVEN better than the AR. Its an incredible feat to be sure seeing as how everyone also armor tanks. But the extremely effective hipfire, the INSANE damage output, the ease of use, the range, and the usefulness off both variants has shot the ScR straight to the top now that hit detection is decent. The ScR stacks great with dmg mods and prof, but is great even without them just like the AR. Due to it being able to instantly kill protos and heavies with ease at any range its effective(close,medium,and far) as well as having a range able to outclass ARs and most other weapons. This range is amazing as it covers the distance of many outdoors firefight hotspots that the AR falls just short of.
The ScRs effectiveness compared to the AR is still debatable, seeing as how the AR is many times more reliable without the overheat, but the assault variant of the ScR being so usable can be seen to remedy this while still maintaining extremely great damage output.
One things for sure, the ScR is competing with the AR for the top spot, and can possibly even be called better.
P.S. I've got 50k SP left til i get a skill i need, but afterwards I'm going straight ScR and prof. I already have prof 3 on ARs, as well as an alt with proto ScRs, and have used both plenty. In my personal opinion, the Imperial ScR is currently the best weapon in the game due to its range and ability to stack damage mods and prof better than the AR, while pumping out enough shots to down a tanked heavy in less than a second.
I dont see average players going 40+ with a Standard Version SCR, hell they dont even go above 10 kills, its not the gun its the person using it, if you don't have aim and have an accuracy rating if 20%, you are not killing anything with it.

So we are lucky there are other weapons to use for ripping clones apart. And BTW Rei Shepard we are having a kill a celebrity day today... so ... you are... kinda.. targeted 
Oh Dear, ill be sure to equip my Templar SCR to align the Gods Favor in my stead and keep the Imperial for Regular days then :)
GL, ill be online at the normal time today :)

And that is a "problem" how exactly? A weapon that is difficult to use should reward player skill. Not my or anyone else's fault that we know how to aim. Your counter argument is completely invalid.
completely agree with Lea here, if normal people cant use the gun properly right now, what is gonna happen to the SCR when its tuned so that good players cannot use it ?, you want a gun that overheats after 6 rounds fired at max skill level so you can at most kill only a single person with it?
Paperweight on someones Desk most likely....
I should put some work in mastering the Sniper Rifle in Cqc on the run, without taking a knee, now that would be some Epic QQ.

The key is to forget that 'skill shot' rubbish and just spam shots like most people who use it, you'll find out that its really just as noobish to use as the ar, over heat mechanic takes ten minutes to get used to. Every gun in this game is an easy to use nub gun, all of them! Scr is really easy to use, anyone who thinks its a skill shot weapon must either be trying to protect it or just plain simple lol. It is supposed to be better than the ar though and it'd be best to wait until the other guns are out before testing, I think the scr is fine really but skill shot? Gtfo lol.
Why isnt everyone going 40+ with it "EVERY" match ?
