Its not meant to be used like that, I would instead say after about 3 secs, fhe gun begins to heat up, such that you get another 7 secs before it over heats. Its much fairer as it doesn't punish marksman, but does punish those who have one held.

If you hold charge you cant sprint, how many ppl do you know that walks more than they run, and how logical is it to walk all the time. As I said before, ( a overheat when firing to much and not fast enough ), is double penalty and too much of a drawback. Now if you are worried about the charge being held, why not just make it so after it is held a certain amount of time its lost, but overheat is an overkill nerf imo.

You could do it that way, if you like.
I see plenty of people running with a charged shot, you don't have to sprint everywhere.

The reason I favour having the shot slowly add heat as it is held, is because of the risk v reward system. At the moment there is no drawback, the last time I used an ScR, you could even cooldown while holding the charge.

there is no risk vs reward with your ssytem though, in your ssytem only an IDIOT would EVER charge the weapon, as while your charging and NOT doing DPS, your RECEIVING shittons fo damage, meaning with this game's TTK youll be dead before the gun is even 1/3 charged, and assuming by some miracle you DO charge and fire it, you better pray by the Amarrian god that it hits, you you just waited a shitton of time you could have been firing multiple shots and now youll die anyways.

A slight RoF limit would be something more reasonable. To be honest dont nerf it as hard as the Tac rifle was nerfed. (If anything can we raise the Tac rifle RoF a bit too while we are at it? )

You do realize that the SCR has double the DPS of the AR The scr also pays for the charge shot bc of the over heat, if you miss you have lost a lot of dps, and an immediate charge following a charge leaves you not many regular shots before overheat. Cr will win every time in cqc if you know what your doing. The rr is just as deadly at range if not more because its better against multi opponents. I do however agree the ar may be the worst atm, and may could even use a very slight dmg buff, ( slight ). When your playing dust and your frustrated...if all else fails...turn off the ps3.

We don't need another reason for us to worry about in the middle of an exchange. I included the MD as one only because, aside from lasers and ScR's, nothing kills its user more often. The ScR is the best 1v1 weapon in the game but fails when you add more enemies against them. The alpha damage is high, yes, but it is semi-auto and in order to get the most dps from it, you need to hit all of your shots. Period. Add the overheat factor into the equation and you have the most realistic example of "risk vs reward" in terms of weaponry, with nova knives at the very top and the PC right behind it. A SLIGHT nerf to RoF is fine with me. More hip fire spread in CQC in fine with me. But this? This is just a stupid and utterly useless suggestion. I do not approve of this thread. Bad idea is bad.

That's still two different ways of overheating which would mean way too much overheating going on most likely. The only way your method would be viable, is if it gained overheat while being held but actually releasing the shot didnt add to heat build up, and then imo that would really make it op bc you could just not hold the charge and spam charge shots. I think if this is really a problem the final best answer is a time limit for charge held. When your playing dust and your frustrated...if all else fails...turn off the ps3. Works every time.

As I said, gaining over heat while charging and over heat for releasing it, is completely out of the question. But overheat while charging, with no overheat for firing it, is viable. But that means if you charged to full and released very soon after every time, you basically have an unlimited amount of fully charged shots, that would never overheat you. Not to mention that if you didnt hold it long, a fast fired charge would leave even more heat build up for quick spammed shots after the charge, than you can do now.

Let's say the SCR user fires off a high damage salvo. If you look at the first second of combat the DPS is really high, right? But then in the next second of combat the SCR doesn't get any shots off because he needs to let his rifle cool down. This cuts the on paper DPS in half. Compare that to the AR where it has a high DPS for 5 seconds straight. Being able to sustain the damage output makes a huge difference when looking at the balance of different rifles. Try to kill it all you want CCP, I still <3 my laser.

Not really when they can walk around holding a charge shot that does close 400 damage to shields and then they can fire it almost as fast as an AR and do 80 damage to armor and drop any suit almost instantly, not to mention zero hip fire spread and the same damage and fire rate as the old DTAC which got nerfed down to 400 RPM and currently has an 18 shot clip which is the same as a non amarr suit can fire the SCR before overheating which I've heard goes up to 24 when in the proper suits.

No by my method you can charge the shot to maximum, since the timer is 3 secs before additional heat is applied. Then you must hold it fod an additional 7 secs before the gun overheats and provides feedback. Therefore only an idiot would hold the charge long enough (10 secs) to recieve feedback. It would not effect the use of the charge insidd combat, at the moment if you are lasting 5secs (2Sec charge time + 3sec idle), your opponent shouldn't be here.
