The new CR and RR weapons are fun. Only problem is, they're backwards, as far as stability.
The Rail Rifle is supposed to be scaled down sniper rifle tech. it's supposed to be super-stable. It has to be, after all, if it's going to be effective at "longer-than-AR" medium range type distances. Yet it isnt. Even at level 4, it seems to have a right-left scatter effect, even when the player stands still.
And it has no option to improve it. There's no skillup for accuracy for it.
In contrast, there's the "combat rifle". Which is supposed to be a high ROF type weapon, meant more for close range splatter, than supreme accuracy.
Yet it has "sharpshooter" skill, and general skill increases that make it more, and more, accurate.
At even medium skill levels, if you use aim-down-sights, it has almost scrambler-rifle accuracy. The only kick to it, seems to make it go straight "up", rather than much of a side-to-side wobble.
This makes no sense: it is completely backwards to the way it should be.
Please fix this :(

"kick", in a properly balanced weapon, is purely up/down, surely?
(after all, thats why SMG has SEPARATE "kick" vs "dispersion" skills")
So this is a problem.
in reference to Talos's mention about CR being a more precise SMG.. I have no problem with that; i'm not actually arguing for more dispersion for the CR. I'm primarily arguing that whatever dispersion the CR has, the RR should be LESS.
And if there is no "improve dispersion" skill, that sort of implies the thing should have "zero dispersion".
which it doesnt seem to, to me. It seems to have both kick, AND dispersion, which aint right. |

yup, that would make me happy
although "obviously" a smaller delta for the assault version :)

thats what *I* thought.
RR should be to armor, what (assault) scrambler rifle is to shields. |
