frfqq Royal Uhlans Amarr Empire 81	Posted - 2012.10.04 23:00:00 - [1] - Quote Seriously, the assault rifles in this game have less range than shotguns do in most games. Snipers are literally invincible to getting hit by any infantry other than other snipers when they're camping in the hills in the back of the map. My bullets should not magically disappear into thin air.
Khortez D Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 51	Posted - 2012.10.04 23:02:00 - [2] - Quote what game are you playing? AR's aint sposed to be snipers they usually a close range weapon

As faras i know we are using a relitivly close range high damage rifle, when we get either projecile or Mag rail/Guass ARs they will probably be more ranged
frfqq Royal Uhlans Amarr Empire 81	Posted - 2012.10.04 23:04:00 - [4] - Quote So it makes sense that bullets should literally disappear into nothingness past like 20 meters, right?
Khortez D Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 51	Posted - 2012.10.04 23:05:00 - [5] - Quote actually i think you could increase the range via skills, but i thought they were pretty decent as is. i've never had an assault rifle that could shoot someone from building to another building 5 blocks away
Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.10.04 23:05:00 - [6] - Quote Get sharpshooter skill. It makes a world of difference, even just lvl2
Cerebral Wolf Jr Immobile Infantry 760	Posted - 2012.10.04 23:12:00 - [7] - Quote I can kill snipers at a very, very good distance with my assault rifle. What rifle are you using? They all have different ranges and your skills affect it.

The current ARs use a plasma charge incised in a shielding which shatters on impact and releases the plasma on target. The shielding decays over time as it doesn't have a constant power sour e once fired. It's supposed to be short range. It's based off blaster turrets in eve which have second to worst range.
RolyatDerTeufel D3ath D3alers RISE of LEGION 1648	Posted - 2012.10.04 23:19:00 - [10] - Quote they are fine. Upgrade Sharpshooter to 5 before overthinking it. And if you still think that's not enough there is sharpshooter profiency skill (can't spell)

My bullets should not magically disappear into thin air. You're chatting utter ** mate, I can hit people really far off with an Assault Rifle. It's not meant to be a long distance weapon, try a sniper rifle if you wanna do that **.
RedBleach LeSanglant Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 136	Posted - 2012.10.05 15:43:00 - [12] - Quote or the tactical AR - way awesome - it has a given extra amount of range

Train up on the light weapon sharpshooter skill book. That should solve your problem. Also, train up to a better assault rifle and stop using militia crap.
Abner Kalen Seituoda Taskforce Command Caldari State 100	Posted - 2012.10.05 16:10:00 - [14] - Quote And here I was thinking that they were shooting rather far. I've got Sharpshooter up to level 3 or 4 now and I've killed guys I could barely see. Personally I think SMG are far too accurate at long range, and so are AR after Sharpshooter and long distance (forget the name of the skillbook) has been trained. I'd like to see some variations in weapons in not just damage levels. Militia and Type-1 should have the shortest range and lowest accuracy. But Proto AR shouldn't be equivalent to a sniper rifle. Same goes for SMG, Shotty, Sniper, and Heavy weapons. Just my 0.02 ISK

With Sharpshooter and sharpshooter proficiency trained up a Merc can really reach out and....touch somebody.

Currently, the only "bullets" in this game are fired by the SMG. The AR shoots plasma.

Ten-Sidhe Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 414	Posted - 2012.10.05 21:07:00 - [19] - Quote Listed range of ar is 55m in the background stats CCP released. I think the in game range is longer. Gallente plasma blasters are the shortest range weapon technology in the New Eden setting, the other races rifles will be longer ranged.
