You cannot balance weapons so that they are equal to each other. Do you realize that? There's no such thing as weapon balance. Is the Viziam Scrambler Rifle on par with a Militia AR? Is the FG on par with the MD? No...because they are not balanced. They can't be identical, but they certainly can be balanced in their role. The RR has great range, so it needs to be less effective in CQC. That is done in both cases by limiting your FoV with the scope. Balance! He said weapon balance! Of course they can't be identical, but we're not talking about the identity of the weapon or the look. He was talking about weapon balance. You're putting pancakes on salad...stop it.
No skihds is right balance is more than just It took three seconds to kill him with this gun, so it should take 3 seconds with this one too. You RR is the longest range rifle so it makes sense that its going to produce poor results against short range weapons in short-range environments. Thats balance. Well this gun obliterates him in these circumstances so I need to pick fights with these conditions and avoid fights where he wil win.
And I said Welcome to balance my friend No mention of the word weapon.
Unless your a Computer Scientist don't tell me how Game Mechanics Work.

That is not balance!! That is the rifle's operation and design!!! And the RR was designed to be good in CQC!! . CCP has stated this!
Thats exactly what balance is, we each have a fair and equal opportunity of killing each other, so long as you keep me far away and so long as I keep you at arm's length. Otherwise balance is unfeasible, impossible.
Which is simply not true, I can kill certain suits and weapons with ease, I can be killed with ease by certain suits and weapons. That is the foundation of balance, if he has sniper I use a shotgun, if he has an LMG, I use a rocket launcher.
The RR was designed to be the longest range Assault Rifle, it would excel at long range and be profecient enough to put up a fight at shorter ranges, however if you expect it to be good at short and long range you.
1) Clearly don't understand the concept of balance in this game. 2) Clearly don't appreciate your weapons strengths and weaknesses 3) Clearly don't care much for the ethos of the race from which your weapon hails.
