Is it higher now than it was before? It certainly feels it but I can't tell if it's the lighting and new graphics that makes it feel like it's higher.
If it is higher is it not a bit too high? |

I have killed people from far away with my AR. I use a blindside for now. I have tested shooting people scoped at a large distance. It doesnt work all the time. Sometimes I move a little forward to check if it hits and now thats my max range. I wont lie though;- I do get some distance in my shot! |

If your reffereing to the AR its ment to have that type of range modern AR have a effective range furter than we have here so it stand to reason that years into the future our ARs would shoot even further rather than closer
Edit the real issue is probably not effective range but rather the lack of any recoil what so ever. |

The ARs range is pretty evil. I think it deserves a little reduction... |

Yeah, I think it's higher. I... believe the range of sniper rifles was around 500 m before, and now it's 600 m. |

Agreed. If I use a sniper, an AR guy can wipe the floor with me at 250+ meters (especially if I'm in a scout suit, which I am usually not, but still...). It seems kind of silly. The AR is the best at short range, medium range, and long range it seems. |

But full range and effective range are both in effect
I can tell you, having taken rounds from an AR at long range, the damage is reduced when firing past optimal or effective range
It feels a lot like EVE (shocker) with regard to Optimal and Falloff. If you are shooting past your optimal effective range but still hitting the target, you're firing in your falloffrange and dmg/round is reduced
I was getting hit from blast or splash dmg a lot yesterday at long range and, although I could feel it through screen shake and controller vibration, the fire wasn't hurting my shields.
Sometimes this could be Blue fire but I am pretty sure I was in range of Red fire and not taking much dmg |

Thanks all, I wasn't sure if it was me or not. I think it should be reduced a little bit too. I've killed a few snipers at a long range and thought at the time I was never able to do that. If it was between the max range of last build and max range of this build I think it would be better, because last build felt sort of just a tiny bit too short. |
