The CR balancing mechanics are not effective lets think of some unique ideas to increase the fun and skill cap of the weapon.
Lets stay away from direct stat changes the devs can handle any balance alterations they choose if any.
Stay on topic I don't care if you think it needs changed or not this is just a brainstorming session so try not to get your panties in a bunch.
I think making it manual reload could be a cool mechanic when you're in combat is when it becomes a balancing factor during those moments of excitement when you hit that trigger and hear click.

How about a actual jamming mechanic (not like the ion bug) a rng roll for reload it is a projectile weapon and this happens quite often with open bolt systems.

Otherwise i would be pissed if I randomly died when it jammed, cause that's what would happen. If that did happen I would expect the others to experience random malfunctions...
I like that, leaving it up to the player to screw themselves it would also likely put an end to turbo you sneaky bugger :D.
Not to get off topic, but I wish they would have done something like that with the cloak delay. Like a damage debuff instead of just not being able to fire that way scouts would have a chance to expose themselves.

Is this really necessary?
I see no reason why the CR is not already in a good place.

I'm an Amarr Assault with only a single Enhanced Shield Extender. I'm made out of armor, really...
The CR kills me more than any of the other rifles, understandably.
I don't see the issue with it really... I don't feel like it kills me too fast, or that I need the enemies weapon to jam so I can get an easy kill.
It doesn't need to be nerfed.
Please, make my Opus pretty...

Honestly dude, stay the **** away from the forums with your tarded ideas.
The CR is fine as it is and really doesn't require being tweaked at all.

The CR is my primary weapon, for no other reason than the fact that it works well with the tactics I use (to clarify further, I use a speed tanked scout).
I think that the jamming idea sounds interesting, just as an idea at the very least. Brainstorming is fun so why not contribute.
I like the idea of adding a few different firearm malfunctions, or at least just to think about it. Mechanically these ideas below are tailored more towards gameplay than realism and any numbers are off the top of my head.
Hangfire: There is a slight delay between a trigger pull and the firing of the burst/bullet.
Squib load: Jam, must press the reload button prior to attempting to fire, or in 3 bursts (CR) or 10 bullets (ACR)--each of these bullets failing to escape the barrel--there will be moderate splashback damage from the pressure build-up.
Slamfire: Gun may shot a round when it loads into the chamber, causing an extra bullet to fire even if the trigger was not pulled. Only happens after firing or reloading, as this is when a new bullet will be fed into the chamber.
Hammer follow: Causes the gun to fire faster than it was designed to, however the condition will deteriorate to the point where it jams completely, and the only way to stop the hammer follow or fix the perma-jam caused by it will be to use a supply depot, or a nanohive.
Just some fun ideas to toss around, probably not really a great idea for actual gameplay, beyond the occasional jam coming up when you fire too fast.

Personally, I want the gun to have a slower "Burst" ROF, and in exchange, deal more damage per burst.
Kinda like the BR from Halo, that thing my not be the fastest with ROF, but those bursts HURT.

Me being an ex resistance fall of man player reloading after every kill became ingrained into my brain. To this day i still reload after every kill or assist. I do not see how this could be a balancing mechanic loL.
The CR is fine, i dare you to use that thing in PC (against good players) and pull a 4.0 kd.

Well, the CR is one of the rifles (like SCR and RR) that always remain above the average in KDR and Purchases. It may be -15% to shields but even in my shield tanked Cal sent suit it sure doesn't feel that way o.O
More time to let meta develop needed. |

How many times are you going to be told that your ideas are terrible before you actually start to examine your own work?
Like for crying out loud!
Redline "Pings?" That just makes it easier for me to redline stomp. Sidearm only scouts? BRB, gonna take away the LW slot from Logi's while I'm at it. Commandos getting a bonus to SIDE SEAT DRIVING??? Mybofibrils give you a DB PENALTY? Heavy Laser? I can get behind that, but the thing you proposed will only be used to massacre infantry at range with single sweep. Especially since you REMOVED the overheat.
Seriously. If one person says you have terrible ideas, pay him no heed. If two people tell you that you have terrible ideas start to wonder. If three people tell you that you have terrible ideas, pick up a book on critical thinking.

Red line - at that point it really doesn't matter because your not likely to recover and to be fair this was thought up when we were under the restriction of no client patches.
Instead of restricting scouts to side arms everyone gets to play scout the way they want as long as what they want is to play a cloaked shotgun scout.
The commando idea fits lore and would be ******* epic.
It is pretty easy to see who is juicing and who isn't :D
I didn't remove the overheat, It would not seize, and the overheat would kill you if you let the weapon rip to long.
Obviously if 3 people think it is a bad idea it must be /rolls eyes go read a book kid. There are 50 mouth breathers for every productive person on these forums, and the reason there is so much trouble getting positive change.

Kinda like the BR from Halo, that thing my not be the fastest with ROF, but those bursts HURT. I agree with this. The reason the Minmatar continue to use the weapons they do is supposedly because they are so reliable. A burst weapon that takes 10 bursts to kill someone is in no way reliable, in fact it is totally unnecessary for it to fire in bursts at all. I see no reason for a rifle to be fired exclusively in burst mode unless you can actually rely on a single burst to do a significant amount of damage. The fact that you can fire it pretty much automatic also seriously undermines the ACR, a standard CR can get almost as many bullets out in the same time, and deals a lot more damage. Unless you really can't deal with the scope and want the iron sights, there is no reason to use an ACR over the standard. CR is pretty much the only weapon I use, I have it almost maxed (fitting optimization is still 4). I would hate to see my favorite weapon completely nerf'd to ****, but I just can't say I fully agree with the way it is. |
