It's still the goto on my scout suits, paired with a breach smg. Not a fan of the assault variant snce there are better options at it's optimal range. It needs a reduction in kick while ADS, actually putting fire on targets at 100m gets challenging. Be sure auto aim is off, if you fire on a group thats packed together you can watch the auto aim cycle through all the targets & defeats the purpose of sneaking up on them. Turn it off & you can pick out individuals easily within a group.

Well that's because it's a long range rifle, the assault variant is more suitable for CQC.

i haven't broken 50 kills with it since 1.8
it's still good but purely a long range weapon, i mainly only use it when the enemy are so far away that the breach, tac or burst won't get them.
so umm it's good for redlining?

it's fine. it still works at distance and works well. If I use one for the whole battle I get over 20 kills on a good day and 10 on a bad one. I only play advanced or standard gear.
having said that it's not as powerful as it was but who cares! If you've been learning to use it and you've skilled into it - stick with it.

CCP Ratatatatatata said the other day that the data on the Assault RR is way lower than others - meaning there are fewer kills with it than others, so no they are not that common yet, or if they are, people aren't killing with them to the same degree as other weapons.

That's fine. I dislike the fact that it has very high recoil at long range. Makes it almost impossible to shoot people if they decide to shoot behind cover.

hip fire it a 6 m while making little circles on the left joystick in a high speed suit.
just doesnt kill at range ... soo many people repping? just doesnt finish them off
played a match solo did 40 000 damage total in battle with sb-39 RR went 2 and 10 ( jokes aside) ive tried everything to get it to perform better , yes my cal assault is squishy in sustained fire but im running out of clip and running for cover or the reds just get away.
it could be bad server latency on top of other issues but ive notice ttk has been very high in some matches ambush oms yesterday had 60 and 45 clones left after the timer expired in a 16 vs 16 match and points were made at least 3 major war barge strikes.....

I tried running the arr on my assault suits but found that the standard still outperforms it.
The standard works like a assault sniper rifle, keep distance & plug away. Thats where the breach smg comes in, a very strong cqc sidearm to take care of those that think they can close the distance & gank you.
The rr nerf only really efffects those who can't take their finger off the trigger in cqc. Fire in bursts & it still works fine.

It's not good. Ads kick makes it unreliable at range.
I've stopped using it
Other rifles such as tac ar and scrambler are much better
We've been asking to have the cal assault bonus changed
I'm hoping they go 5% kick/charge reduction rail/hybrid weapon per level
The arr is in a good place atm |

It may just be that I'm more of a CQC player but I consider it the most boring rifle to use in the game and it's also relatively a very weak weapon in general (low arse DPS, huge kick, high charge up time).

My problem with that is that none of the other rifles are limited like that.
The AR is good all around and can be used at range if you feather the trigger. The CR has good recoil so you can use it at all but the most extreme ranges. The Scrambler Rifle is all around versatile.
The RR?
Only good if your enemy isn't shooting behind cover, if they are very far away and as long as they don't have a Scrambler Rifle or especially not a Laser Rifle.

I use both. On my cal assault with high ground i use regular, good for lots of cover fire and gets tons of assists. You just have
to realllllllllly know how to use it. Ask CHECKMATE.
For my scout i use ARR. Its good to pre-fire it and aim above who your shooting basically making a guesstimate on were the
enemy is and were your shots going to land.
I think right now there both niche weapons.

Creo que tu situacion es parecida a la mia. El fusil gauss es el primer fusil en el que me dedique a mejorarle todo. Desde que salio siempre lo use montado en exploradores y a medida que fue pasando el tiempo le fui cogiendo practica. Hasta que probe el de asalto y me encanto.
Antes del gran nerfeo llevaba el gauss normal en el traje para los enlaces, en un traje avanzado hecho para combatir a larga distancia y en el proto para conquistas planetarias. El de asalto al no tener variante basica lo utilizaba en varios roles de asalto por su buena respuesta en combate cercano y en otro proto dise+¦ado tambien para CP.
Despues de la gran caga** que hicieron, me frustre mucho porque ninguno servia en combate cercano y no me podia defender solo con el subfusil. Al tener el fusil de combate al 4, el mismo dia lo mejore a proto y le subi dominio y demas al 4.
Despues de todo esto a dia de hoy uso mas el fusil de combate, tanto el normal como el de asalto.
Solo conservo un traje con gauss sb-39 que es el de larga distancia para matar camperos subidos en sitios altos y casi nunca lo utilizo. El de asalto si que lo tengo con varias variantes de traje pero para mi es otro arma, antes apuntabas y casi no tenia retroceso, ahora a pesar de tener mas balas es una loteria al apuntar ya que oscila tanto que no sabes si estas quitando vida o no. Se han lavado las manos y han copiado el modelo del fusil de asalto de combate, eso es todo.
Conclusion, si te gustan las armas que hacen mas da+¦o al blindaje, cambiate al fusil de combate, una vez lo aprendes a usar es muy practico y gasta menos RA-CPU que el gauss. O almenos hasta que mejore la situacion con el gauss. Un saludo, |

Rail Rifle does its job. I run it it on a gal assault with 542 armor and 20ish reps or so. I find me a nice little hill and poke my head over. Anyone exposed for a second gets some bullets. Anyone exposed for too long dies. If im in cqc i switch to sidearm because its unreliable in cqc. It does its job. Thank you CCP.

My Cal alt has it at Prof 2 or 3, it's still one of the best rifles imo, as long as you aren't trying to hipfire spam in CQC, and even that still works well enough pretty regularly. I've been having plenty of deathless matches playing to its strengths in a pure shield tanked Cal Assault, which is not something that happens regularly on my other chars. Guess I should skill it on my main!
Reality is the original Rorschach.
Verily! So much for all that.

I use it almost exclusively and the problem I see is that it has too much kick while ADSing for a long range weapon. In CQC, it's absolute trash but that's the way it should be. I have Cal Assault 5 and Proficiency 2, btw.
Half of what I say is sarcasm. Don't take me too seriously.

The rail rifle is fun when you fit damage mods on it.
Whenever I see a Min or a Caldari assault, I would just switch to my ScP to wreck their shields and finish them off with a RR in CQC.
In medium to long rang, I find it a whole lot easier if you aimed above their waistline, stop firing for a sec to restart kick, and just keep firing until the other guy dies.
Long range against the lazer rifle, RR gets outperformed. I use whatever resources with the RR because I find it too fun when I get a kill, but overall its greatest strength lies in MEd-Long range, while weakest is CQC and engaging multiple enemies.
Still waiting for the tanks to be reintroduced

It's bad man. Real bad. GD got what they wanted. A useless rifle that can't even kill a horsefly. It can't kill at long range. It won't cut it at close range. Spool time is ridiculous. The ammo capacity is not even balanced with its stability issues.
I've found some fun in the ARR. Just a little bit. But a shield defensive cal player using a RR against weapons that destroy you faster with suits taking longer to kill, is just making the hill steeper for himself.

The only thing I find bad is the high recoil at range. Unless my target has very low health I will generally have to stop firing and then restart firing, and that tends to let them get away. That's not an issue I experience with other rifles.
