rail rifles, scrambers and combat rifles are all balanced relative to each other, its the plasma rifle that hasnt found its footing. |

Yes but RR, ScR, CR > AR > Every other weapon in the game. It honestly doesn't matter if those 3 weapons are balanced with each other as they need to be balanced with every other weapon in the game and they're not.
balanced against what other weapons exactly?
specialist weapons (shotgun, mass driver, laser rifle) aka situational weapons?
sidearms?
AV?
sniper rifles?
please explain what other weapons the assault rifles should be balanced against, and yes i already know you mean the specialist weapons, they are situational not mainstays of the infantry force, they have areas they shine (except the laser but i hear a fix is coming soon) but are more limited then the assault rifles to compensate for their unique advantage in other areas.
need to breach? have a member of the squad bring a mass driver to chuck rounds in to soften the targets and make them unresable on death
need super long range suppressive fire? laser
need super CQC shotgun.
its impossable to "balance" against these specialist weapons do to their unique elements. |

I'm sure you will change many minds with it. rail rifles, scrambers and combat rifles are all balanced relative to each other, its the plasma rifle that hasnt found its footing. Drop its range and up its damage But the CR should still be comparable in short range because that is how the rifles were designed. AR - Short CR - Short to Medium A CR user also has to do more than an AR user - if they miss or dont pull the trigger quick enough they lose. At close range its just pulling the trigger at just outside of that ironsight is better than scope for the average user imo.
one thing it does NOT need is more damage....
the fact that you even suggested it makes me doubt you quite a bit.
and the scrambler and rail both outrange the combat rifle a meaningful amount as it is if you lower its range you eliminate alot of the available stratagy used by combat rifle users to counter these weapons.
its the rate of fire you want to look at if anything as currently the combat rifle does more damage in cqc then its own assault varient due to 120+dmg bursts at super speed done by anyone with an itchy and accurate trigger finger.
the regular scrambler and combat rifles need a little more delay between shots so their assault varients have a meaningful use in cqc over the regular varients, then the plasma rifle will shine how its supposed to. |
