They do need a damage nerf. I understand they are useless at close range but they are way too effective at long range.

thats called balance

its a gun for mid-long range fights and does absolutely nothing at cqc it doesnt need a damage nerf ppl need to know what they are facing and how to fight them

Yeah... Positioning is something you have to think about in FPS's. If they are at their effective range, DON'T ENGAGE THEM. Hell, Tactical AR's and Lasers are simple to combat. You get in close enough, they're either going to miss a lot or do no damage, respectively. If a Laser is giving you problems, run away and call in an LAV. Drive up to him, hop out and waste him while his Laser rifles has 10% damage efficiency at within 10m. =\

Not gonna lie, me and fizzy had a guy who was hiding behind a rock try and do this. We were able to focus down his lav in only like three or four seconds, well before he could run anywhere. At optimal range, you can completely melt a militia lav with only one elm clip. Although if your opponent is charging you, then you're screwed, or you just toss your AV nades.

Plus my tac rifle out ranges it. pls no lazor nerfs

That was easily more cool than killing the tank lololol I can't even imagine what he was thinking as he jumped into his LAV at 50% shields already

You're gonna be sitting in the back breaking everyone's shields while your team needs to clean up and hack. It's frustrating using a laser rifle when your team sucks lol.
