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. =\

someone is thinking i see.
the problem alot of ppl face in this beta is they try to engage everything the same way no matter what suit the person has or what weapon they using hence ppl get downed alot

I will never forget a Manus Peaks Skirmish with Regnum on the other side. He was over to the side of Alpha with high ground advantage, some cover, and a Codewish Tactical. The blues just kept lemming after him. Across open ground. Uphill. He finished 68-1. Sorta just have to marvel at how stupid people can truly be. Knowing your advantages/disadvantages vs. your opponents advantages/disadvantages is vital. But people don't think. They chase the red with a shotgun, the red ducks around the corner, the blue chases... The blue gets one-shot at point blank by the shotty. Then the blue hops on the forums and bitches about shotguns OP. And it's not just this beta, it's every FPS that has maps larger than what you find in COD. The moment maps are big enough for you to consider effective ranges and positioning, the game because more than just about who shoots better. It's just that fact hasn't dawned on most people. Einstein's definition of insanity is to attempt the same experiment the exact same way and expect a different result.
