1. Increase charge-up time to 0.5 seconds.
2. Slightly reduce clip size (probably no more than 10%).
3. Drastically increase hip-fire recoil. The dispersion can actually stay where it's at.
And that's it. This should at least lessen the RR's effectiveness in CQC, helping to cement it's role as the long rage assault rifle. Honestly after all this it might still be doing just a little bit too much damage for how much range it has, but I think this would be a pretty good starting point.
Comments welcome and appreciated. But please folks, try to keep it constructive and civil. Flame wars help literally no one. The hipfire criticism is unwaranted, ccp own post about the rr sold it on how good the hipfire is, thats what they said about the weapon, it has great hipfire, thats the sweet spot of the gun. People want it nerfed because they are dying too it. |

My problem is the fact it does 3 DPS less than a same tier Gallente AR. In EVE, hell ALL sci-fi games, the longer range weapons have higher alpha, and less DPS.
In Mechwarrior 4 you couldn't just stack AC5's and instaWTFpwn Assaults(super heavies) from range AND CQC. In MW4 you couldn't stack large lasers and have more sustained DPS than a similar tonnage salvo of small lasers.
In Halo, you get a high DPS AR, higher alpha Battle rifle, and then the DMR.
In Star Wars: Battlefront 2(god that game had some problems) you didn't have snipers running into CQC because their sniper had the same DPS as an AR or shotty. Chainguns didn't snipe across the map too well either.
Would you like me to CONTINUE pointing out Sci Fi shooters that follow this logic? But thats not how this weapon was designed, its a frontline combat rifle, it shouod be comprable to both the scr and crmas, well as the plasma rifle, its kick ass in its range, which happens to be longer than the other rifles, is slower firing, has less amo, and short spool up time, this rifle has stretched the battle field and people cant just run stupid. |
