This is pure T_T Out with you Amarrian! Seriously though I actually agree with you that the RR is a little TOO good in CQC. I've gone in Rambo style RR blazing from the hip in CQC, and have wrecked people. The SCR on the other hand in CQC is OK, but nowhere near as powerful as the RR. The SCR in CQC is more panic spamming whereas the RR is *spool up* CHANGCHANGCHANG *kill*
The real question here is were you using the RR to hip fire newberries or actual competent opponents? That makes a large difference in your statement. Nearly any weapon put in a good players hands will ruin a newberry.
I believe all the rifles play their role exceptionally well.
If we're "talking dust" let's make a little comparison.
CQC weapons;
Nova Knife (shouldn't even mention this)
Shotgun
HMG
Combat Rifle
Sub-Machine Gun
Range Weapons;
Sniper Rifle (shouldn't mention this)
Laser Rifle
Scrambler Rifle
Rail Rifle
Forge Gun
Now let's look. If you put any of those CQC weapons in a competent players hand they will surely out play and out gun any of those long range weapons. (Perhaps not the Nova Knives, but that's a totally different discussion)
Let's go a little more in depth. The Laser Rifle is by far the most useless CQC weapon listed, let's cross that out now. The Forge Gun can be really deadly at CQC but requires time and very accurate aim, just isn't a logical choice. The Scrambler Rifle (both regular and assault variant) are deadly at CQC, but you need to be able to connect shots. This also takes time while a competent shot gunner will casual walk by you popping you with two or so blasts and you're dead. The Rail Rifle is very competent in CQC, probably the most formidable of the 'long range' weapons. The short charge up time may not seem like a big deal but against an HMG or shotgun, even a combat rifle in CQC that small charge up time can already mean your death.
Granted all of these statements are based on my own personal experiences. I only mentioned weapons that I have experience with using because I cannot judge a weapon without actually using it myself. You're welcome to disagree, but you truly should attempt to use the weapons before you go ahead and say they're OP one way or another. |
