ON THE RR, yeap.Pretty much what the title says.
1st- The opinion on the RR being OP is completly based on personal experiences but its not a hard fact, the RR is not the weapon dominating the battlefield like the TAC,LR,AR or MD were in their time.
2nd - As i stated before,this NERF THREADS are more based on personal experience of their (butthurt) Posters than actual Facts. In MY PERSONAL experience for example, the COMBAT RIFLE is the one thats completley broken, (The STD CR shoots 3 bullets per R1 button press for a total of 96 BASE damage, more than a VIZIAM SCR RIFLE per shot,while having better fitting requirments, a better scope,better ROF, no overheat mechanic....)
AND STILL you dont see me requesting a NERF for it.
Why?
I've learned something most of you still havent.
CCP ends up BUFFING UnderPowered stuff eventually.
(Some posts stating why the weapon is Underpowered is more than enough)
BUT they also nerf stuff on request,...OUR REQUESTS.
Example:
GÖª CCP noticed Tanks were Underpowered in Uprising.
GÖª Tankers Cried EVERY single day for AV nerf.
And what happened?
GÇó CCP Buffed tanks to reasonable levels
GÇó CCP Listened to QQ tankers, Nerfed AV.
Result:
Tank s***storm we are in now.
So, inbalance.
The Rifles are all in a GOOD PLACE RIGHT NOW, balanced among themselves pretty well:
AR: unlike most butthurtz Duvolle AR users pre 1.7, the ARs are in a good place right now. Good damage bonus, Decent range for a CQ oriented weapon, Great Hipfire, Good RoF. Mostly a Weapon that Apllies CONSTANT damage to the enemy in good chunks. If i can Do with a 'Toxin' AR (and im a pretty sucky AR user), you can do with a GEK or higher....
CR: Good range, Good Fitting Requirments, Excesive RoF and Very good DPS. The weapon is Overall one of the best in the game, if the player does not mind the Burst Mechanic.The weapon truly has no weaknesess.
The SCR RIFLE: The SCR rifle has HORRIBLE Fitting requirments, horrible Overheat mechanic that after 1.8 with the Loss of the Heat sink in the amarr assault, it will make it even harder to use, a Sight that does not really help to fully use the weapons range...Overall a Mess. BUT , the ''CHARGE FEATURE'' is what makes the weapon powerful never the less.
The High Alpha damage of a (connected) charge shot of a SCR makes all the drawbacks bareble since it makes the weapon the best option for 1 vs 1 engagements with a very good Range...for now.
RR: The main weapon in discussion here. The weapon has High Damage per bullet , the best range and a miserable charge time (0.25) that was the thing SUPPOSED to balance it in CQ. EVEN if a charge time nerf (to .4 or .5) the riffle will be best at longer ranges.Now, before considering to touch the weapon ,i propose to let CCP know that other weapons need a buff, before NERFING one of the weapons that can actually kill as it is.The weapon has Very good hipfire and range,but looses many times to AR's and CR's in closer ranges due to higher RoF and lack of charge time and in the Med-Long ranges it goes 50/50 vs the SCR rifle since a charged shot wIll take more than -+ your HP...
Overall, i get into the forums and all i see is . RR is OP, RR needs nerf, whatever posts.
Some of them even have REAL good solutions for balancing it, but i say, AGAIn, for the last time.
Buff the other weapons before even talking about nerfin these one please.
Ty for your time.
