There may be a few I missed I was trying to somewhat contribute to my team, It was a great match too even though I was camping out we had one bar left and cloned them. It is 6 kills a piece average and most were from 2 players which doesn't look like a weapon that is over preforming to me, It looks like a weapon that is being used.
Extra info: RR/ARR users: A ton CR/ACR users : A ton Shotgun users : A ton
The last 3 on the feed blanketed it there was a few nk, remote explosive, SR, and scram rifle kills.
I would bet the activity wouldn't even be this high if people didn't say this very mediocre weapon was "fotm" or OP when it clearly isn't. Furthermore I would think a CPM could find more meaningful things to work on as opposed to crying wolf. *sighs*
Despite the fact the Breach AR is a variant weapon, it would always be used less than the RR, CR, ScR and AR regardless as its not prefitted to the Starter fits that the new players use, and therefore may not even know the gun exists, let alone that its FoTM.
Earlier while in a squad I called out "Breach AR" everytime I saw it in the killfeed in a Dom. Nearly 80 times I said that. More than the RR, CR, ScR, AR, even HMG. Why? Because the "good", older, more experienced players were using it. The players who know its overperforming and therefore use it to gain an advantage over those who dont know how good it is.
There are more new players than vets here too (if the 300k individual logins is true), so the usage of standard variant weapons makes sense. The TAR is very good at the moment, but why do you rarely see it used? Its balanced, and its a variant, not meant to be good as its sibling, the ScR, which is more commonly used. The BrAR needs changing, similar to Daddrobits numbers posted earlier in the thread, putting it inbetween the AR and the RR, like the TAR is between the AR and the ScR, and the BuAR between the AR and CR.
