also to keep in mind though it is physically possible to rapid fire a controller without middling the controller, to do that much in that that amount of time is unpractical and far from accurate.

I can spam a good deal from a scr clip, certainly not 19 times accurately.

Same here, got a fast trigger finger but none of them will hit unless I'm so close to the target I might as well hug them

Statements like yours are the reason I am skeptical of the claims who can max out the shots with just a finger and accurately.

I can't, and I don't know anyone who isn't a braggart who claims they can.

This is why I am skeptical that bringing the ScR to heel will "punish normal players who don't use modded controllers."

Just look at the Scrambler pistol. It got its RoF nerfed and now shooting it is painful. It is impossible to hold your rhythm with the thing thanks to what seems to be some sort or random interval application to make the RoF what it is.This is the same situation which would hurt regular users. Modded controllers can be programmed to the exact rate of fire while anything below what a regular person is able to pull the trigger at turns into an awkward mess of not knowing if you are going to shoot or not.

I think the real problem is that there are like three people in the world actually not using a moded controller with this and the combat rifle. Watch the kill feed and count the Scram kills. Better than 50% most games. The dps is off the chart and warping the game even more in favor of armor vs shields. Its time to fix this so we can go back to some diversity on the field. that and to be honest, I am personally tired of getting a suit with 750 EHP melted off in less than 1.5 seconds from insane range.

Here's the derived average rates of fire on a programmable input. There is some oversampling, but as you can see, the numbers are fairly consistent. So I give you the scrambler rifle Rate of Fire Measurement Test results (Preliminary) WoW has taught me that Purple means Legendary. This means Quafe suits are the optimal loadout for killing all of you.
Thaddeus Reynolds Facepunch Security 312	Posted - 2015.07.10 21:00:00 - [2] - Quote Ok, the methodology used was simple: I used a hardware interface (that is designed to allow the use of an Xbox 360 Controller with a PS3 or a PS3 controller with an Xbox 360) to run a few custom "Turbo-fire" Scripts that I calibrated to the correct RoFs over the course of a few days. The Scripts where calibrated by measuring the minimum actuation time that needed to be given for DUST to register the "keystrokes", then time was added from there, I tested the scripts using the PS3 controller on both a Windows PC and a Linux Machine to ensure that the RoFs it was outputting where correct. Then a corpmate of mine and I jumped into pub matches in squad, and recorded from both his perspective and my perspective the trials using the 'Templar' Scrambler Rifle on this Account. Each programmed Rate of Fire was used in 5 trials each. After each trial, before reloading the number of rounds remaining in the magazine was recorded. These trials where all done in the redline, and I apologize to my teammates in those matches for taking you down 2 people (although we did end up with victories in all test matches). Trials with the 'Templar' Scrambler Rifle took 2 matches to complete. We then repeated the same process, this time the character used was a fresh alt with no skills, using a Militia Scrambler Rifle. The same test method was used, and I issue the same apology. I then went in and analyzed the video to get the time to overheat, verifying from both the shooter's and viewers perspectives, and attempting (with minimal success) to ensure the correct number of rounds where fired. To get the time from the shooters perspective, the first frame of the measurment was the first frame where heat appeared in the interface, to the first frame where the weapon was inoperable. To get the time from the Viewers perspective, time was taken from the first frame in which a shot appeared, to the first frame where the "Blue Sphere" seize affect was seen. Any discrepancies where averaged out. Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper. Vehicle Re-vamp Proposal

This is a failing in the coding of a weapon rather than it being op when used properly. trying to get off 19 scr rounds without a modded controller and it will explode in your face. though, making it heat per shot rather than heat per second still won't stop cal players from qq, but it will make the game a lot more fair, and not punish normal players for the sins of the cheaters.

Well, I'd test it myself, but that's a lot of SP to save up, and I'm hoping that CCP fixes it before then (plus there are a number of other things I'd rather spend SP on), but assuming I have it before any issues with this weapon are changed, I'd be happy to test it as well.

Don't get us wrong, I'm sure we all want the Scrambler Rifle to be in-line with the other weapons, but it also needs to feel right. Currently, the weapon's firing mechanics feel right, it's the limiting factors on damage that need to be examined, which was one of the purposes with this data collection, to demonstrate that something was wrong with the heat buildup of the weapon (though the data is inconclusive on to how it generates heat, it is generating slightly more than it should). I'll get back to everyone when I get data for the TacAR for comparison. It would also be useful to know exactly what the multiplier on heat for the charge shot on the ScR is (If a Dev wants to weigh in here). Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper.
