Hipfiring more than 15 shots causes your weapon to be uncontrollable if you hipfire an entire magazine you *will* be looking straight at the skybox - this is utter insanity, every infantry weapon should be serviceable with or without a bonus this is an excessive heavyhanded overnerf of a weapon because it 'seemed' to be performing a bit better than someone would like it in cqc.
Quadrupled kick values are bad.

The RR is made for long distance
The ARR is made for short/middel distance
That's all
These changes essentially turn the rail rifle from a 'mainline' infantry weapon into a specialist weapon akin to the laser or massdriver. They're overdone.

Quadrupled kick values are bad. Switch it out for a breach AR then. That's a hipfire beast. Oh you still want to be able to kill people from really far away? Decisions decisions. Welcome to (the opposite version of) the world AR users have been living in, except we can't bust out a long range sidearm to help with our weakness. The RR should be as bad at hipfiring as the AR is at long range. No more do-everything, I-can-blast-away-from-range-all-day-but-I'm-fine when-I-get-rushed. HTFU
I don't have nor do I ever want to have SP invested in assault rifles on this character, they are not caldari weapons. Thanks for trying though, the solution to an overnerf isn't 'abandon the weapon completely and use something else', that's called FOTM chasing.
I don't want the rail rifle to be a 'hipfire beast', I want it to perform as it should - as a racial service rifle, not as a specialist weapon. In order to do that I needs to be 'useable' in hipfire and cqc, it doesn't need to be the best at it.

Why should I have to pay (in terms of SP and ISK) to have a 'not bad' weapon.

Oh? and how many kills did you manage in CQC? against what suits and weapons?

^I'm fine with your weapon being better than mine at short range, so long as I still get to actually *use* my weapon at short range. In its current state it's not possible.

^I like how every other race gets a gun that can shoot straight for as long as they want it to except the caldari zatara, but the caldari apparently aren't 'supposed' to be playing objectives, no they're supposed to stand on rooftops or hills 400 meters back because they cannot reliably hit a scout that runs straight at them.
Having low DPS in CQC is fine, having a gun that cannot hit things is not. The rail rifle in its current incarnation feels bad. It feels VERY bad.
Maybe the amarr weapons shouldn't be able to hit things in CQC either because hey 'they're not supposed to be short range!!!!"

^Lets not be facetious zatara. When the weapon bounces around so much that you're lucky if you land two shots on someone, you're not shooting straight.
All of the changes to both charge time and kick have been very bad for this weapon.
