DUST Search - Petition to un-nerf the rail rifle

First, +1 to this if you support it!

Reduce the charge time, you nerfed it HEAPS! For instance

Scenario 1: Horrid hip-fire, great charge-time

I pull out my sub-machine gun to CQC people, and use my rail rifle for long range. I can still hide behind corners but i will be down 100hp max. before i start doing damage to him if we start shooting at the same time.

Scenario 2: I get given 1 Million ISK if CCP un-nerfs the rail rifle

Scenario 3: Great hip-fire, horrid charge-time

I am hiding behind a crate at the rail rifles optimal range and the enemy is doing the same. When i poke my head out he can shoot me straight away. When i want to fire i am down 200-300hp before i start doing damage to him. In this case i have to pre-charge, but if i pre-charge and he ISN'T there than i am giving my position away and wasting bullets. In this instance i would rather go closer to sub-machine gun range and kill him.

The kick for ADS should be lowered for more precision aiming for long range, while keeping, or SLIGHTLY reducing, the hipfire kick. Then, slightly increase the Magsec spool by .1 second. Finally, change Caldari Assault bonus to spool time reduction. This is along the lines that I was thinking. And what about a kick reduction bonus (for calda assault) ? Some weeks ago, you said you'll give us it, but anything... Now a charge-time reduction bonus ? I agree but only if you increase the basic charge time and decrease the kick. Whatever you are going to do, please change the CaldAssault bonus soon Ho, I'm thinking about this : Please fix the CaldaScout and the MinmAssault hitbox, (and nerf the tactical asault rifle and scrambler rifle = optinal) Like a dream
