Hey guys, i'm new to this forum so try not to be too harsh, please...
ok here is my idea to balance the rifles:
rail rifle: get rid of the breach variant and replace it with a very high damage, low rate of fire, long range weapon with
pre-shot charge up mechanics, just like the bolt pistol (full auto). It would have to have overall dps reduced, but
the high alpha damage would make it an ideal long range weapon, and the low rate of fire would on one hand compensate
the recoil. On the other hand it would, coupled with the charge up, make the gun
less suitable for cqc engagements. Finally give it a very high optimal range with very low falloff, just like railguns in eve.
assault rifle: get rid of all the messy variants and only implement the breach variant, with best performance at close range
(maybe increase rate of fire for all variants and a slight increase to magazine capacity, too)
combat rifle: the main change is to slightly reduce it's dps, witch should be a less than the plasma rifle, and change the
ranges -> "low" optimal range but high falloff range. It would be aligned with eve, and would balance the reduced dps (at least
i think)
scrambler rifle: i'm not sure, i would keep it just like it is now, but with increased heat-buildup on the assault variant.
At the end of the party, RR would become a long range monster almost useless in cqc ("almost"), the AR would shred at close range, while CR and SCR would be somehow in between, with their strengths and weaknesses.
This is just a couple of ideas thrown on the forums, feel free to comment and criticize (possibly in a constructive way)

At work so can't give a full breakdown, but I will give you some advice.
Your post is the dreaded wall of text. Even though you have line breaks the list of weapon suggestions is still one big, poorly punctuated blob. Apologies if English is not your first language, just saying for a post of length many will not bother if it's hard to read.
Oh and +1 as a welcome to the forums
Edit: wall of text not as bad as I made out, stupid screen wrap on phone. |
