Zekain Kade BetaMax. 931	Posted - 2012.09.22 04:37:00 - [1] - Quote Aside from the obvious it detection problems, the tactical rifle is an under rated, and underestimated weapon. It can do so much, but because so few people use it, and even fewer are good at using it, most don't bother with it.This gun gives you so much control on how fast you want to kill your targets, it has a massive range advantage over every other rifle, It's scope is better then any other rifle, and it has almost no recoil. Unlike the standard spray n' pray rifle, this gun actually takes a lot of skill to use properly. Once you're able to master this gun, you'll be able to out do nearly every other rifle men on the field with little to no resistance! Why? because you can out range them :D I have been using the proto version for most of my time playing this game today. It is a challenge to use, but it is very rewarding once you get the hang of how it works. I would like to en encourage more players to use this weapon. It will also probably be the best weapon choice in the larger maps that are to come. So practice with it while you can.

Zekain Kade BetaMax. 931	Posted - 2012.09.22 04:52:00 - [3] - Quote Sorry, I'm out of range for you to actually do any damage. You're dead.
Veigar Mordekaiser Royal Uhlans Amarr Empire 676	Posted - 2012.09.22 04:52:00 - [4] - Quote I don't like the Burst rifle at all, 5 rounds is much to large a burst to properly control. If they reduce the burst to 3 rounds I'll be happy.

I don't think you understand math... If Burst base range = 100 and Tac base range = 120 then with say 20% range boost Burst new range = 120 and Tac base range = 144 Both having range boost increases gap in Tac's advantage in this field, not deminishes it.

If you're not at the maximum range you're already dead
Ieukoplast Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 169	Posted - 2012.09.22 05:35:00 - [13] - Quote I tried using a tactical last night, and I can now say I probably will never purchase another one again. Not a good weapon to use for CQC, also mix in lag and it becomes almost completely useless.

I can confirm this, in the right hands it is awesome for dealing with snipers at mid to longish range. I have underestimated the range a few times as well as its accuracy.
STB Vermaak Doe 558	Posted - 2012.09.22 05:40:00 - [16] - Quote Just a thought but what if the breach got a similar range boost to compensate for it's current state
crazy space ZionTCD Legacy Rising 879	Posted - 2012.09.22 05:44:00 - [17] - Quote I love the Tactical AR, best in the game. It can fire just as fast as a breach if you have fast fingers.
Spooty Frog Algintal Core Gallente Federation 9	Posted - 2012.09.22 06:34:00 - [18] - Quote I'd like the Tactical AR to have a slightly higher damage boost per shot.

The attributes page is wrong, its a 7 round burst
Billi Gene Tronhadar Free Guard Minmatar Republic 130	Posted - 2012.09.22 07:04:00 - [20] - Quote fairly sure the Tac has increased range, its downfall is at close range where full auto requires less finesse to kill. I like the Tac, its what i use when i have to use an AR on my scout or heavy.. my a55ault is waiting for the reset to get deleted :P
