maybe it's just me but the CBr doesn't feel up to par anymore. the rail rifle and blaster rifle simply out class it now and I was wondering if anyone else was having less than stellar results with the new CBr.

It can still out DPS them in a 1 vs 1 fight. But then again, strafing with an automatic weapon > ALL.

I agree, it's very good I've been having fun with my duvolle again. but my boundless just doesn't do the work it used to.

I'm gonna disagree, the CR seems to still pack a punch vs heavies.
I think it's too early to call anything and we need to see everything level out before making a judgement call.
Early observations seem to show that the Rail rifle is still good and the MagSec seems to be the new best sidearm, replacing the ScR pistol and SMG. Bolt/Ion pistol seem to be tied for decent sidearms, though a bit UP.
The ScR and AR seem to be the worst of the rifles because of how many people armour tank.

I switched back to Shotgun/SMG for the high alpha followed up by armor tearing goodness. Works better than pure CR now especially with Cloaks. It makes it easier to ambush and take people by surprise if you are careful and patient. |

It took a but to get used to, but I think they the CR is in a good place. I can still drop proto suits with the basic CR, and the boundless is still beast. It just requires full upgrades to bring it back to its former glory.
The RR is "better" than it was, but it still needs a slight tweak in its hip fire so it's less effective in closer fights. It's still far too tight for what is supposed to be a long range weapon. Especially now that they have the magsec AR....uhm SMG to back it up.
I am having a blast with the ol' AR though. It feels much better now that you can actually get into its optimal.

They still need to remove our ability to shoot through our cloak. Quick switching and firing a shotgun blast before decloaking fully has to go. Yeah I've done it, but it really feels dirty, and its one thing that if abused will get us scouts and cloaks nerfed into oblivion.

Assault Combat Rifle is amazing.. Specially with Sharpshooter 5 and LDS... 40 shots off the dome before you even realize.
The Burst is a little less effective in general when facing commandos, heavys... And the hit detection seems to messed for it to work consistently versus scouts. Its more situational now but still the best all around rifle in the game.
The Assault rifle is badass now.. and the hit detection on it seems to have been reworked... It hits well. |

I think its just you, CR is still one of the best weapons. Extremely low fitting cost like a sidearm, better range than the AR, great DPS.

Yup, played last night and still using my lowly combat with Lv4 Pro (no damage mods)
- No real difference, just squeeze off a couple extra trigger pulls to get through shields.
There will be the occasional foe at distance that doesnt drop as easy now the proficiency profile has switched but not really a problem so far

Scrambler pistols received a 40% decrease in DPS. Anything less than this is not over nerfed.
If this game was fun, I wouldn't be playing it.

Try using the Automatic Combat rifle. iv gone 48/5 with the Adv scout and BK combat rifle in 1.8 its still a very viable choice.
very good with flux grenades against those caldari heavies.

I think the CR is still quite good.
However, I think some of the issues of passive skills not loading correctly at spawn may be causing issues with it (unconfirmed). I notice that it seems to work better at times as far as range/dispersion and hit detection. Something just feels 'off' about the backend of this game as a whole right now.

I have seen this sentiment elsewhere. I don't understand it at all. Everything was nerfed, by about the same amount, so the thing that was considered the worst is now not considered terrible. Is it just the Gallente bonus that helps?

For me the Boundless doesn't register... I can hear the bullets hitting on the 7.1.... I Can see their shield glow as my bullets hit... No damage..
Found out last night that unless your crosshairs red up... The game doesnt think your aiming right... So you cant aim like... "OK enemy is between my sights, FIRE!"
It's put your crosshairs on target... Wait for CCP's servers and your client to realize it should go red... then fire...
No wonder hit detection is ********.... Specially if they are basing it on this.
Having crosshairs settle on a moving scout long enough so they can red... Is funny? |

Are you kidding me right now?
The CR is outperforming the AR in almost every measurable stat except clip size. It's DPS is insane and it can dish out that DPS at a very respectable range without a spool-up time. It is incredibly easy to fit even at PRO levels. In short, it is a powerhouse of a weapon that doesn't seem to have a weakness to speak of.

No its fine, trust me its fine.
Infact don't be surprised if they get another nerf in the next patch to fit into the range profiles better.

It is still too powerful. It's a very quick damage based gun which is ok but it's range band is too good for it's damage. |

Good call i agree the combat rifle just doesn't do enough dps anymore. Maybe a 5% bonus to damage? That seems balanced. |

Still working for me, and I've only got Lv2 proficiency on the thing. It lost a decent amount of damage, but I'm still winning in most firefights, even when I have less HP. I think CCP did a pretty good job on it, even if some of the other nerfs weren't necessary... *Cough*BreachAR*Cough*
