SMDH  Ya know, it has less recoil, larger clip, more range, MORE DPS, a red dot sight, faster reload... Why should I use an AR again? And BTW, that screen shake is purely visual, it does not affect your accuracy. Not true... It does have recoil, its just that the barrel doesn't rise like the AR. Its just a different kind of recoil. The AR has a upwards-preferenceed kick, while the AScR has no preference and kicks in random directions. There are pros and cons to each of those. It does have a larger mag and more range, but you forget that a CRD-09 is just as hard to fit as a Duvolle. Even harder to fit, sometimes. How much higher exactly is the DPS on an AScR? It used to be lower, but since the Rifle nerf, that may have changed... I haven't looked at Rifle DPS yet. It's like 15 more DPS? Not that big of a deal, but it's still more.
That 15 more DPS, is a big deal when you account for the range, if a gun has longer range IT HAS MORE DPS because of how range works in this game.
For the AR between 40-65 meters its damage efficiency will drop by 2.8% per meter (on average) up until 65 where it does 30% damage.
Between 40-45 meters the ACR has a 14% DPS advantage. Alongside being equally to slightly better than the AR from 0-40 meters. This is just totally unfair as the AR gains NOTHING between 0-40 meters.
So at 0-40 meters the GEK does 393.75 DPS while at 0-45 meters the ACR does 400 DPS, from 40-45 meters the GEK does 338.625 DPS the ACR does 400 DPS. Even if you used an AR with the blaster mentality you gain nothing by closing distance since it does not increase even your DPS.
The AR needs to have an advantage in DPS over the rest of the guns, probably a 15-30% DPS buff (a reversal to the damage nerf) in order for it to compete and be right at home in CQC combat, it needs to have a fair trade off for the obvious (or not so obvious for some) DPS advantage some long range rifles have outside the AR's optimal. All this crap about kick and the AR is easy to use its balanced its a bunch of crap as every other gun is just as easy and more powerful, if you really want to balance around kick and ease of use then I want to see the RR kick about 5 inches on your screen per shot, and the ACR to have a epileptic seizure from shooting at an insane 1200 RPM.
For the Federation!
