First off all, this is a honest question. I don-¦t have much experience with Shooter Games and hell I-¦m not a game designer.
I painfully noticed that the standard (burst) combat rifle outranges the scrambler rifle. I-¦ve experienced that several times. Of course I raged and **** but now I really wanna know: What is the thought behind that?
Any serious answer/discussion is welcome, thanks. |

I meant the semi-auto scrambler. And of course I cannot confirm if these guys/gals used damage-mods or not, but in more than one encounter I was put down by cr on ranges over 50m in a fair and open 1v1 encounter. My shots registered and the opponents did too. I know this sounds like "He cannot be better than me, so QQ this weapon is op!" but it-¦s not. |

I except, especially from you KingBarbar, that others made different observations. Maybe my senses tricked me. I probably will have recording gear in the next months. If I still encounter that I-¦ll have some solid material to judge on. Thanks. |

My bad that I didn-¦t check the ranges upfront properly. 77 meters optimal range on the advance cr, that explains alot. I really did expect that range would be shorter.
Does this table still reflect the current game? http://web.ccpgamescdn.com/dust/news.control/65468/1/rangeprofiles.jpg
Do all weapon drop off in damage alike? |

Ok, my information was not precise enough. With "over 50m" I wanted to point out that this wasn-¦t CQC fights. One particular encout was more at the range of 90-110m. Of course I use KB/M and my opponent most likely had aim-assist so more of his shots hit potentially.
I sum up: Subjective observation. The statistics seems to suggest otherwise. Maybe the dropped me because of 2 more levels in proficiency, damage mods and having more eHP.
Last question which could also explain my encounters: Does the damage drop of linear or exponantially towards the absolut range? Is this for all rifles the same function? |
