I'm talking SNIPER RIFLE RANGES. Where the H E L L did you get the idea I was talking about blaster turrets. I am an avid real world shooter. And snipers ARE able to hot targets out and over 1mile. Yet, to the CCP DEVS and anti-sniper winners do they think it makes sense to SHORTEN ranges. As I postulate, I thought the Eve Universe was supposed to be more advanced. Everything they are showing is inferior to "real world" weapons. I could hit with accuracy targets out to 350m with my M-4. But, CCP thinks sniper rifles should be effective at less than 500.

You seem to be missing one very important point here. This isn't the real world. This isn't a simulation of the real world. There is nothing even remotely real about DUST.

It is a game and the Devs are making changes to the sniper rifles to make them better fit that game, its direction, and the enjoyment of all its players. While your individual opinion is of concern to them they also need to think beyond the individual and look out for the greater community.

It's a moot point after playing this game for almost 2 yrs and recommending it to my friends, I deleted the piece of fecal matter of a game after 3 match's tonight.

look you the op is clearly not after logic and sense here. Your just wasting everyone time here with you're sound reasoning

A new software defense patch arrived in all dropsuit manufacturers allowing shield and armor oscillations to pick up incoming sniper rounds beyond 400 meters. Suits can now react fast enough to arrange shielding and armor plating in a manner to completely deflect the round rendering it null and ineffective. This software update nearly is game changing as the new digital fortress electronic series given to eve starships that disallows viable engagements beyond 250 kms being feasible.

While caldari arms manufacturing are trying a way to circumvent issue they have redesigned tractory calculations and shell design to impact much more force if they hit. Net gains of increased energy departure allows rounds to snap clone soldiers necks with greater ease even if the round itself does not penetrate. However in their mad lapse to complete and distribute the software rival arms manufacturers stole lines of the code involving the impactor calculations and have now applied them to their side arms. The new calculations despite being simple in commands and adding in upsized ammo partitions draw lots more form the suit's power in recoil compensators than previous incarnates. The new models feature higher damage than before and stronger head impacts against the high tech dropsuits.

I am very upset about people killing me in an fps

Logis... uuuuuu tha adrenaline when repping heavy in gunfight!!

you mean you try to rep the heavy while the invisible scout sneaks up to you and one shots you with his shotgun?

Increased pg on pistols...lowered pg on magsec...backwards...in what reality would a pistol take more power than a SMG?
Decreased mag size on Charged Sniper...and shortened ranges???? Again...in what reality does that make sense. Considering everything every country (real world) is trying to increase is range. Modern day snipers are making kilometer ranged kills on a regular basis now.
And then some Billy Badass one shots me with a ******* bolt pistol. I quit playing Dust I WILL NOT PLAY YOUR PC VERSION. It'll only be even more fukt.
