- Heavies should always beat AR users in a 1v1 fight, as long as they aren't extremely stupid. The weakness with heavies is that they don't have equipment and can't be where they're needed as quickly as other suits. Yes, they shouldn't attack a squad in win, but an AR user beating a heavy 1v1 is a joke.
- Exactly: ARs should be a generalist weapon. However, unlike what you think, they shouldn't be perfect at everything. If you think you can get through armor faster than a MD, you're joking.
- How exactly was this ruined? The only difference now is the sniper has a chance to kill you if you run out in the open in front of them while shooting like an idiot.
- MDs needed a bigger clip- but perhaps only a 1 round increase. If you would use more than ARs (and by the sound of it, you used them because they were OP at the time) you would know this.
Learn to play- as I learned how to effectively use non-OP weapons last build.
not sure where to start with the fail of this post ..
1). CCP in early blogs even said heavies can be taken on 1v1 (by scounts in cqb; and AR's at range); so yeah, your whole belief is negated. And as others said, if heavies should win 1v1, then we'd all run heavy suits.
2). AR's weren't perfect at everything ;but yet an AR in games and real world is a jack of all trades weapon. However if you wanted range on your AR, you needed up to upgrade your SS skill (which most good players do); that or run with a TAR. If liked to be sneaky, you had shotties; or if wanted to cause havoc you have MD's.
3). MD dont really need a bigger clip; i just used them for the first two times. Combined went 23-2; so yeah, im pretty sure people can survive on using a 6 round grenade launcher that inhibits your enemy from aiming; as if clip runs out; its called secondary.
With the new patch, we are all adapting and still doing just as well as before; it is just tedious in the sense, that the main gun used by a good portion of the community got altered in more then one way. It would of been easier and possibly better to do one thing at a time instead of several; as most other weapons when altered had one thing changed about them at a time (in a negative fashion).
As other AR's users might say, recoil is perfectly fine; its the loss the the "scope" that had changed gameplay (and not for the better). That and i'd say all around those who have skilled deep into weapons may be against the scaling of damage; as there isn't a big point to run better weapons anymore based on damage. The only real point to skill into some weapons are for the passive bonuses said skilling gives you
