As an Amarr loyalist its breaks my heart to say this but "I have a hard on for that RR" the sound is so futuristic and sexy the assault variant is my favorite kinda reminds me of a m14 or is it m16?

I haven't gotten a chance to try the Rail, the COmbat rifle is awesome though, both variants (though I like the assault a little better). That rail rifle is a beast on the battlefield but also a beast to fit on one's suit. I was worried the burst CR would suck liek the burst AR does, it most certainly doesn't though |

I went proficiency 4 on the CR and really like both models. I trained ops 3 for RR and it's not bad. As a Matari faction warrior the CR makes more sense. At this point I think all the rifles are balanced to each other and it's now down to personal preference.

I've been playing with the Prototype RR, and it's a ton of fun. I'm finally getting the hang of the hipfire and how to play with it. You simply cannot understand how much fun it is to kill the people who think they are out of range until you try it. |

I have been using standard variations of both weapons, and I must say I am loving the CR. It is probably a little OP, but I love weapons that behave similarly in all games.
With that said, I have gotten some nice kills with the RR as well. No matter what, it is nice seeing more diversity in the game, instead of everybody running duvolles.

I've tried both, I equipped my girlfriend's Logistics fitting with a combat rifle and watching her twitch people to death with the burst fire was awesome. I'm not so talented with it though. Personally I love the Rail Rifle, it's the perfect range for my scouting needs, I can keep reds at a distance where I cannot be detected and fire away from ambush. If I keep my Scrambler Pistol on my hip for reds who might wander into close range I have a pretty decent time. I have Rail Rifle fits for long range and my trusty Shotgun for CQC.
TLDR: I <3 the RR. |

I don't like the Combat Rifle. At all. I've never liked burst-fire weapons in FPS games though.

I bought 15 basic of each and only played a few rounds but my initial choice is still CR... reminds me a bit of the G11 from black ops which I was rather fond of. My first full ambush went 8-1 w 7 asst (not stellar I know lol) but for first try w a new gun and no idea how it's really going to act in a fight it was a good start and seems to compliment my style nicely.

Rail Rifle is overall the better choice and feels like the pre nerf breach AR, just with longer range and a bit of kick. the hip fire accuracy is boss and damage per shot is great.
the regular Combat Rifle on the other hand looks sexy and helps me against my bad habbit of full auto spray and pray that I am used to due to the SMG |

The range advantage of the other weapons outweighs the damage, honestly. A combat rifle with damage mods is just as effective - if not more - than a Burst Assault.

I'm not really sure yet which way I'm going to go. I run minmatar logistics so I figured I'd be going combat rifle...better up close, lower fitting costs so I can use the better equipment. Problem is...I'm a mouse and keyboard user, and the range / shooting profile makes the normal burst variants of the CR extremely finicky about your sensitivity settings since mouse doesn't get any kind of aim assist / friction. I'm not entirely sure what the problem is...on a PC fps I'd have no problem with that weapon profile, and I have no issues sniping or using weapons with longer bursts of fire. If I switch to the DS3 I have a much easier time hitting things with the CR, and shooting with a controller is entirely alien to me.
On the other hand the full auto CR is awesome. If there was a cheaper variant of it I'd use it a lot. I'll probably use it on my more expensive fits. My cheap support logi fits might start using the rail rifle more. I didn't get much practice with it last night, but I did get a couple up close kills with it. The idea being to try and hang back from the front line a little or use cover to pick off longer range targets while the rest of my squad focuses on the closer ones. |

Running the allotek was how I prepared for the MCR.
Ran a few matches with the standard and advanced CR, then cranked it up to prof v.

I tried the advanced RR for one match on an alt and immediately skilled into it on my main (op 5, prof. 2). The sound and feel won me over within seconds.
I don't think it's as powerful as other weapons are - both in CQC and at range - but both the sound, kickback and animations of the whole thing feel awesome.
That said I was practically sworn to it even before 1.7 deployed. Up until now I had three advanced racial assault suits but only two racial rifles, so something had to be done either way. I just like racial purity in my fittings. |

If I would choose between the two I would say "why not both?" Make a nice commando suit RR as primary and CR secondary. With the added speed to the reloading you keep spraying your enemies with the RR and the burst precision of the CR. |

I've got rail rifle proficiency 2, rapid reload 2, and ammo capacity 2. I just use the standard version on my regular assault suit, but I'm working on a commando fitting using at least advanced.
I gotta say, it's so fun to tear the armor off those gallente scumbags.

Same. I went ops 3 on both. I was originally never going to try the RR because Matari loyalty but decided that was a dumb reason not to try it out. I found in the end that CR was more my playstyle and that is what its going to come down to. I'm a **** poor shot, so something burst that I can feather but still conserve a bit more ammo than laying down the trigger is working out much better for me. Also, running in to revive someone often takes clearing the space. That up close combat works well for me with the CR.
Though I will say, I've been killed by an awful lot of RRs these past 2 days.

So basically most players went for the Rail Rifle, and the more skilled players went for the Combat Rifle. I guess I'll go for both when I get on Dust.

Both First choice is RR (better sound and no sharpshooter skill) I'm waiting to have enough sp to skill lv.4 of CR, then i will use a-CR, i don't like that much burst weapons. For me things are black or white, single shot or full auto, no burst

Kristoff Atruin wrote:I'm not really sure yet which way I'm going to go. I run minmatar logistics so I figured I'd be going combat rifle...better up close, lower fitting costs so I can use the better equipment. Problem is...I'm a mouse and keyboard user, and the range / shooting profile makes the normal burst variants of the CR extremely finicky about your sensitivity settings since mouse doesn't get any kind of aim assist / friction. I'm not entirely sure what the problem is...on a PC fps I'd have no problem with that weapon profile, and I have no issues sniping or using weapons with longer bursts of fire. If I switch to the DS3 I have a much easier time hitting things with the CR, and shooting with a controller is entirely alien to me.
On the other hand the full auto CR is awesome. If there was a cheaper variant of it I'd use it a lot. I'll probably use it on my more expensive fits. My cheap support logi fits might start using the rail rifle more. I didn't get much practice with it last night, but I did get a couple up close kills with it. The idea being to try and hang back from the front line a little or use cover to pick off longer range targets while the rest of my squad focuses on the closer ones.
I thought for this reason as well I'd be using the RR and scared of it at the same time. I started my logi journey in MDs and SMGs, but once range became a huge player, my suit never stood a chance against the ARs. When ScR came, it was even more vital that I had it to simply match their range. They were taking me out from across the map and I had to arm myself with something that could reach out and touch them back in time to find viable cover. However, I'm finding the CR is much more for me. I'm a bad shot, but have done significantly better with the CR on my controller. I find so many of my other team members are running RR that if I can avoid those in the distance, they'd take them down for me. The CR lets me get in to an area where team members are down and clear the room much more efficiently. I'll say that I've died plenty from RRs lately, but up close and personal, I think I'm winning out over the RRs with my CR.

Compared to the combat riffle, I don't understand why anyone would still use the Assault. I've given it to my heavies to replace their HMG too. |

Honestly, I had no idea, as you may know I'm not a game developer, so I was "as surprised" as the rest of you. I kind of thought it was pretty cool though, but haven't formed a real opinion since 1.7

not sayin RR needs adjusting but i have prof 5 and SS 5 in CR and lv1 in RR and the RR still kills folk quicker in CQC. same with AR i have prof 5 which is apparently according to CCP shortest range and highest damage which is basically bulls**t. AR is pretty much at bottom dps wise in CQC RR hipfire needs to be on par with a sniper rifle because atm the whole rifle balnce is a joke. you may as well go for scram or rail fotm than anything else. there should be balance and choice but there simple isn't
It's only after we have lost everything, are we free to do anything.... Unless CCP take away your BPOs

I do find it odd that the longest range weapon has the best hipfire spread... That's just asking for AutoAim and oober l33t kb/mers to go ham and punch some nutz.
Though personally i find Cr best. Chews up gallente's like a shredder to paper. Caldari's on the other hand...

I agree with an RR nerf to hipfire, but only to the Normal Variant. The only good thing is that the spread gets insane if you can't hit the target after about 10 shots.
The assault variant is supposed to have good hipfire.

LOL.. I think you'll be the only one.
The combat rifle is amazing. I'm a bit biased cause I run minmatar everything. If I were Caldari I'd be saying the rail rifle. Hip fire CR is where it is at. The assault variant is good but too short on ammo. I'll just use my assault SMG thanks. |

I won't lie I love it too, but I haven't seen one blue post acknowledging that it was meant to be added to the game. It seems like no one knows at CCP that it was part of the patch...
I've been asking for sticky REs since closes beta! :D But I'm scared it's a feature that will get pulled if it doesn't at least get an official after announcement : ( ;_; updated patch notes at least... |
