DO NOT increase rate of fire. This will just encourage ScR-style turbo abuse. In fact, we already went through a stage of high RoF Tac AR in Uprising, it was the only weapon anyone used and turbos were everywhere.
DO increase magazine size. It's a lovely weapon to use in its current state but that tiny magazine holds it back so much. |

Finally is the tac, suprisingly if Rattati is correct, there is no reason not tomuse this weapon. It functions almost exactly the same as the ScR just without the charge shot. It also doesn't suffer the supposedly crippling overheat, but simply reloads instead.
It leaves a big question as to why the ScR is overperforming, yet the almost identical TAC is not. It may be in any case the range, or lack thereof.
There is no mystery about this, 572 DPS for the ScR is a miscalculation. The current figure for proto ScR is 841 DPS (705.88/60*71.5), while the proto Tac AR only manages 607 DPS (500/60*72.8). So the ScR performs so much better because it has much higher range AND much higher DPS. |

So the ScR performs so much better because it has much higher range AND much higher DPS. This however requires a turbo controller, this is simply arguement for the a harsher ROF cap to combat such abuse, however you will notice this is calcualted at 8 shots a second, a supposedly more reasonable ROF for ScR users.
If you wanted to argue for a harsher RoF cap you should FOREGROUND the fact that at present a turbo ScR utterly dominates all other rifles. Instead you make out like Tac AR and ScR have similar DPS, which they definitely do not! So this whole thread reads like an effort at disinformation, to try to keep the ScR an I-win button by obscuring the indisputable facts about the massive DPS and range advantage it has. Maybe you don't mean to do that, maybe you don't use a turbo ScR, but that is how it reads. |
