Some numbers:

Old:
Duvolle: 467.5 - Effective range: 78 - Clip size: 60
ASCR: 466.5 - Effective range: 84 - Clip size: 72

New:
Assault Combat Rifle: 464 - Effective range: 84 - Clip size: 64
Assault Rail Rifle: 471.9 - Effective range: 102 - Clip size: 42
Note:
Rail Rifle has 0.25 charge up time, dropping the DPS to 353.25 for the first second.


Some facts:
ARR has extremely tight hip fire
ASCR has tighter hip fire than duvolle
ACR is going to be very accurate according to wolfman on IRC
ACR has -5% against shields and +10% against armor. It is the only AR with non symmetrical damage application model.



My analysis:
Judging from these numbers, Duvolle is the weakest in the package.
Yes ARR has charge up time, but the thing has 102 effective range for cats sake.
It also hits like a brick.


And laser rifle is going to be useless

So the rail hits almost as hard as the thale - 3 damage, with a quicker charge up than the charge sniper with only 321.86 damage rpm 50. These numbers are insane. All these new variants need to be reduced drastically.

CCP accomplished two of their goals with this. Introduced all racial ARs and Killed snipping, which is now better with damping and the rail.

Duvolle is fully automatic with no charge Up and takes not that much on PG/CPU (Vs ASCR).
Duvolle has no recoil and spread.
I think they're all pretty balanced each others.


But all of these are damn ****** up and will be ******* OP.
Duvolle and ASCR is already totally OP since hit detection and kill everybody in 2-3 sec MAX with bad aim......
Aim assist is totally abused.
And the 2 new weapons are maded to be balanced against Duvolle and ASCR.....so they will also be OP....
The DPS is damn too high. (Seriously 450/500 of DPS WITHOUT damager or proficiency) means killing an Heavy or a fully tanked player in 3 sec.....
The actual DPS just killed the "tanking" meaning.....

You realize the range on the RR is 102m? Good for you if you snipe within that range, few do.

Then you'd have to compare the breach AR to the rail rifle.

The TAC to the ScR.

And the burst to the CR.

The only weapon that seems comparable is the burst rifle, because as of right now, the other AR varients suck while the AScR is just as good as the AR.

Kinda sad that the weapon with the lowest range doesnt really have any advantages.

Pretty much.
The AR nerf brigade got what they wanted.
The AR is now useless, though I bet they didn't expect CCP to make even better AR's to do that :P

The ACR has around a third less damage in each clip, and much less total ammo damage, than the other rifles. The range is reasonable and second highest DPS (after ScR) once you factor in the damage model. But I expect the standard CR will be a better option as its damage per clip and total ammo damage are better (though still on the low side).

The ARR is trash - same clip size and total ammo as the standard variant, but less damage per round. It also has an ironsight, which is criminal for a weapon with that range. The standard version of the RR, by contrast, has a lot of damage in the clip and in total plus better sights.

TL;DR the standard variants are probably better than the assault variants.

not as useless as lr

yes it does. It costs much less, and fits good. It also, comes in a fully automatic form in its basic variant. where as the others cost more and have no basic full auto variant.


the AR will work like a breach AR (which no one uses)
the assault combat like an SMG but per shot damage is low.
