ARs have recoil....go full auto and you'll see they'll go straight up.

But forget that.....this is a futuristic game. Guns are made with plasma bullets or whatever the hell the description says. There shouldn't be any recoil on futuristic assault rifles

AR's seem overpowered because people who are good at FPS' (regnum zitro's proto me etc etc etc) are used to Assaults, how they work and how to use them efficiently while having the aim to back them up. It may seen like they're OP but wait until the game gets released and there is more talent, more skilled HMG's etc.

No gun has recoil, not even HMG's no QQ about it.

Wow!!!!!!, all this QQ about the AR..... what ppl are forgetting is the we as dusters go to diff schools (upgrading skills) using sp to do this. ITS NOT IN THE WEAPON ITS IN THE SKILLS. MY AR IS NOT LIKE HIS AR!!!!!!! If someone has his / her light wepon proficiency all the way to 5 and his sharpshooter all way to 5, and your um lol scrambler pistol with 1 lvl is pulled out who looses.

Apply this all around the board you guys are forgetting all about skills and some ppl are really good with the sticks, So good skill placement and great stick work = good player and your untimely death.

Damnit man, I say nerf this thread. ITS ALL ABOUT THE SKILL not like in other FPS where its in the GUN. learn how this game really works......

ILL REPEAT ITS IN THE FREAKIN SKILLS MAN.





END TRANSMISSION..............................

as AR should be the king of mid range - but the increase doesn't make it king, it's god. Your MD's, your forge gunners, your SMGs, your shotgunners, pistol wielders, dual knifers, anything, I'm going to butcher it with a militia AR and dmg mods. You can put a dmg mod of 10% yourself on your proto type version, I'm still going to win. Run up to a mountain, grab a laser, and fight me range. You'll have the advantage, but my weapon still does enough dmg to kill a laser user long range. So what incentive do I have to be anything but the all purpose, jack of all trades AR?

And that's not how it should be. These mods are far too easy to obtain and offers little to anything but weapons of high RoF

They don't even have that much damage nor range when you start out.

You have to channel tons and tons of skill points into getting the gun to be effective: five levels of assault rifle, five levels of proficiency, five levels of sharpshooter AND you need to work with a horrible shooting and tracking mechanic just to kill someone. All the while being killed by snipers, fast scouts with shotguns - which kill in one or two shots - subs and of course heavies who, lest we forget, need very specific circumstances needed to kill them (STAY AT RANGE, JUMP AROUND THEM AND RUN AWAY - stupidity). which means that you can't put any SP into shield or anything else meaning you'll die easily.

I understand what people are saying about recoil. But it's hard enough to track someone when they are running. ARs need to be powerful to take out heavies who require no skill to hold R1 and point (as you so accused ARs of needing.

If ARs are getting nerfed so should heavies.
