QFT.

Numbers don't lie.

Here is to all of you "ScR is soooo OP" or "ScR's have always been FotM" people. Directly from CCP Rattati's mouth. Blink

Your right, numbers don't lie.

However, Quantity Gëá Quality so I don't really see the point of your post.

The point is most players flock to the OP.

'

The reason most players "flock" to the OP is because they cannot compete with their current weapon. And when you cannot compete then you die and when you die you lose money, and most of us, including myself can't afford to sustain losses. So we have to try our best to use what is currently OP.

It's not our fault, just our way of compensating for LOW PAYOUTS in pub matches, as well as under-balanced weapon system. Don't blame the player base for trying to continue playing the game, try to make suggestions to make other weapons more viable and competitive. An example is the Mass Driver. How many times do you see this on the field... Almost never, unless the person is on a rooftop shooting down at you... In that particular case this weapon is amazing. But anywhere else, it's horrible. 1v1 it's horrible at any range other than the MD being on a higher ground. So you never see any players using it. The same goes for the Laser Rifle. There is one (or possibly two) maps where this weapon is excellent. The Dom/Ridge Hill map, and the bridge map are the maps where this weapon is great, when you're standing on a roof top or high ground from 80+ meters up. Then it's great.

So, in every other case we have these other weapons... And to limit it even further, only some of them work for all cases of close range and long range. Then you limit it even further by making the longer range more powerful than close range without limiting the close range capabilities of the long range weapons so the long range weapons become stronger in all cases. Thus you see them more often and they become OP and FoTM...

Ryme Intrinseca The Rainbow Effect 1363	Posted - 2014.06.19 07:34:00 - [1] - Quote CCP made LOTS of changes to AR, CR, RR and ScR in Bravo. As I don't find the Google docs spreadsheet very easy to read (redundant columns FTW) I thought I'd post this overview of the most important changes for the proto versions: AR: -8m range, +10% DPS BrAR: -4m range, +22% DPS BuAR: no range change, +25% DPS TAR: +6m range, +31% DPS CR: no changes ACR: -5m range, no DPS change RR: -2m range, no DPS change ARR: -5m range, no DPS change ScR: no changes AScR: -2m range, no DPS change So to summarize, ARs have received hefty DPS buffs, with the TAR getting a massive one as well as a range increase. Everything else is either unchanged or slightly nerfed. This is the new DPS table (bracketed numbers account for CR/ACR's favourable damage profile): 1. ScR 841 2. TAR 607 3. BuAR 595 4. CR 594 (608) 5. AR 453 6. AScR 421 7. ACR 420 (431) 8. BrAR 401 9. ARR 400 10. RR 398 I have to say, things look more balanced now. You have semi-autos at the top followed by the bursts and the shortest range auto (AR). Then you have the other autos, with the longest range ones (RRs) at the bottom. Will be interesting to see if those big buffs can make TAR or BuAR return to flavour of the month status after long absences... EDIT - also, though it hasn't been changed itself, I expect ScR to be a FOTM competitor due to the buff to Amarr assault.

We had an overabundance of RR and CR, hopefully this will make the battlefield more vibrant. If the Amarr changes plus Shield Module buffs make the Scrambler more seen, then that is a success as they were the least used of the big 4. I'm going to try to respond in the most unbiased manner that I can. I think that as far as damage output goes the CR, and RR are in very good spots. The AR should probably get a 2-3% reduction as it is completely overwhelming right now, within it's range profile. The SCR needs also a (roughly) 3% reduction as well as in the long range it shoots faster than the CR with almost triple the damage output... Long range guns should not shoot FASTER and hit HARDER than close range weapons. As for the range profiles. Everything is great EXCEPT the RR and SCR. These guns are out of control over long and close range. In close range they both out damage and out range all other weapons. They shoot over 90+ meters extremely accurately. I've noticed that I'm getting killed at ranges where I can barely even make out the character shooting me. That's a bit absurd. They are at sniper rifle distances hitting for full damage. I think their range needs to be reduced by about 6% at least for optimal damage output. And their close range needs to add some kind of dispersion so they don't outclass the close range weapons. I know that you've changed some of these numbers but all I'm asking is that we make CQC weapons out class the range weapons in close range and let the range weapons out class the CQC weapons in long range... I predict, if numbers stay the way they are, we'll see a ton more rail rifles (as in 1.6) with a ton more of ScRs. Newb

For the rest of us who arent PC rich, if you can't make at least some profit running ADV suits with proto modules then you are doing it wrong (or are a noob and need more time). Maybe not every match of course, but at the end of a day you should be ISK positive. If not, cut corners a little and shave the costs down until you are profitable. ADV weapons kill just fine. 2) There's also nothing inherently wrong with there being some niche weapons which are only great in certain situations or by people dedicated/good with them. Variety like that is what makes this such a fun game to play despite so so many obvious flaws. I love my LR, for example, it's in a great place right now and can be used on any map (in the right situation). It's also stupid fun to use. The only place where everything should be equally viable in the majority of situations is the primary racial rifles, and there I totally agree about the FoTM thing: Obviously AR should beat RR in CQC, the opposite at range, ScR against shield tankers(lol), things like that, but otherwise they should all have relatively equal usefulness. The rest of the weapons are just fine as long as they dominate in their one area, like the MD when you are up on a roof trying to clear space.

I would guess that Prof. V in the Plasma Rifle is the #1 Prof. V skill (followed by Snipers). I'm trying to use my lower SP weapons now (PLC, LR) for some more fun and excitement.

You make a good point. CR and RR represent a large sunk cost of SP. They were hyped quite a bit and after so long with only the AR and SCR when those weapons came out people put big chunks of SP into them quickly. That upfront SP investment and the simple fact that they were new created the bow wave of CR/RR. My opinion as a long time SCR and RR user...the SCR has always been the best weapon in the game IF you have a gun game good enough to use it. Any weapon can be "OP" in the right hands...the SCR is just more OP in the right hands. "Endless money forms the sinews of War." - Cicero Skype: jaysyn.larrisen Twitter: @JaysynLarrisen

What do you suggest? Evening out its damage profile will make it even more OP. It's supposed to be good against shields, and horrible against armor. That's why you don't see it in the killfeed anymore, unless of course I'm there. People want to use the weapons that have killing power. That's why all the armor based weapons are popular. Since shield tanking is low hp, it doesn't take much to strip shields in which case the downside for a smaller percentage against them doesn't matter. However, 80% against armor and overheat and feedback damage are all very serious disadvantages.
One Eyed King Land of the BIind 2065	Posted - 2014.06.19 16:56:00 - [23] - Quote As a minja, my CR/ScR usage comes to the same thing. Fitting costs. I love the ScR, but can't fit it on any of my suits without ridiculous amounts of sacrifice. I choose the CR mostly because it allows me to make the most of my other slots still (which doesn't amount to much either). The CRs low fitting costs were meant to be options for minmatar suits that have reduced fitting ability (unless I am mistaken), but because their is no racial specific bonus or anything like that for the item, all other suits that have plenty of fitting capacity can fit a CR and now have the ability to make fewer, if any, sacrifices in the rest of their slots. IF the CRs low fitting cost were directly because of the minmatar's lower fitting capacity, I would suggest considering raising the fitting requirements on the CR and giving minmatar suits a fitting bonus to it.

Izlare Lenix Last VenDetta. Dark Taboo 708	Posted - 2014.06.19 18:30:00 - [30] - Quote I have used and loved the ScR for about 6 months. I don't believe it will ever fill the kill feed the way the CR and RR have. The reason is because most players in this game have terrible aim. They need spray and pray weapons, which the ScR is not. After a few dozen deaths caused by overheating, most players will give up on the ScR and go back to their spray and pray weapon of choice. Gun control is not about guns...it's about control. The only way to ensure freedom is by having the means to defend it.
