HMG's should tear everything to shreds in close range - They do that but also in medium range
AR's should kill everything in medium range - They do that but they creep into long range a little bit too much
Snipers should kill everything at long range - They do that and they are exactly where they should be.
My suggestion:
Nerf the HMG range, and nerf the AR range.
They should still hit the target, but the damage should be tiny.
BS, Assault HMG have very crapy dps, only here on forums it's a real threat - in-game you do not kill much with it at medium range at short you have time to say to your self "why the **** I did take As...." and die, from some Assault with standard AR.
It's BS that HMG are king of close range - shotgun users are waaaay much better at this even militia one, second place come for some AR types combine with right suit's and fiting's(funy part is that they don't need to be at short range to be successful) - you can just image how loud I laughs when I engage for example Assault Series-A with iskGEK on my terms of preparation with Type2 suit and adv. HMG and I die when he have 25% of armor.
HMG are designed to be kings in narrow corridors of buildings on short range and against many targets at the same time and directions, when they start to panic because they seen Heavy .
I understand that you are trying to push through that kind of thinks because some of you just love AR to much.
In my opinion Plasma Rifles should be split in to two kind of weapons that different from each other with optimal range that they have. Right now if someone want to specialize killing shield he need to skill Laser Rifle - that's 2 skill. If he want to kill armor instantly at close he need to skill-up Mass Driver - that's another 2 skills. Sniper Rifle - 2 skills. If he want to go on short cut, and sometimes be even better then spec. version of weapon all he need to skill-up is AR.
Why none is qq about optimal range of small blaster that are mounted on vehicle - they are way much bigger than handheld verison of AR, and they have much much worst optimal range. So yea let's split plasma rifle in two kind of weapon or implement all bunch of other specialize weapons that have wider optimal range, RoF and other attributes. |
