As a caldari player, there is no point for me to run up and hack an objective if I have to turn around and run 30m away so I can shot at the enemy.
You guys been riding the Rail Riffle hate since it came out the door and forced a overnerf. I run lr has same weakness have u heard of sidearms ? that's what I use So assuming caldari loadouts here (to get the most out of cal assault, and because each race should be using their respective weapons) we've got the bolt pistol with 4 shots and a crazy long chargeup... or we've got a magsec which has almost zero dispersion and really bad hit detection issues and it's also designed to be used at long ranges. So... what sidearms should we be using? Or are we just supposed to use variant weapons all the time? I would pair it with an SMG, but then I am not purist. You have to make some sacrifices to be a purist, no matter what race you run.
See but that doesn't make sense.
Why would one races technology not enhance and accentuate the benefits of its own races technology.

Nothing else matters besides that fact. I'd have to assume you are referring to Rattati's statment to the effect that the fine details are not as important because the rail rifle accounted for 50% of kills. 1 weapon accounting for essentially as many kills as all the others combined implies pretty strongly that it has a substantial advantage over the rest. If you have a more plausible explanation for that, I'd love to hear it.
I feel like that is somewhat of a fallacy. In a competitive genre like FPS players don't necessarily gravitate to a weapon because it has a "significant" advantage they do some because a weapon has "an advantage" that being said that disparity could be anything from game breaking RoF to slight percentage more damage per round or some such nonsense.
Kind of feel like the nerf was heavy handed for watching clips of the game....not to say that it did not need some alterations like this....but perhaps not as great as this initial change.
