You nerf the HMG's range, you should nerf the AR and Sniper as well.

As for HMG being 'easy mode' it is only better for one v one. In the current environment of run-n-gun idiocy and all the lone wolf quote-un-quote 'badasses' the HMG eats them like a particularly unfulfilling snack, dumping the waste into the forums to QQ for a nerf or blue. Run in squads fools, it is why we have them. Do not close on the Heavy, he is a big target so you don't HAVE to close distance. Its all very well set, if you just impartially look at it.

I'm a Logi, btw.

Thats dumb, okay then buff the AR to 100 dmg ps and make it close range only..AR has been nerfed enough hmg range is a bit much you know thats true

HMG range is total crap. Maybe people using HMGs are training Heavy Sharpshooter to offset their weaknesses and the average Assault Arse hasn't been keeping pace.

Also, 100 DPS for the Assault Rifle would actually be a nerf. they do 30~ damage a shot and at least five shots a second.

I mean, we're in Beta and we haven't even seen Amarr/Minmatar vehicles yet - let alone racial dropsuits/weaponry. Can we just knock it off until we see everything this game has to offer? Please?

You realize how badly the HMG was nerfed before it got brought back up to this point? Quit your QQing and learn to use a Shotgun if it bothers you so damn much.

Also, 100 DPS for the Assault Rifle would actually be a nerf. they do 30~ damage a shot and at least five shots a second. 750 RPM divided by 60 = 12.5 shots per second. I once argued that the AR should have less bullets in the magazine (to encourage specialization into other, more skill intensive weapons) but god forbid anyone break away from the staples that are keeping this game patched together. Honestly, if people would just stop holding still for the Heavy to just waste them with the HMG - there would be a lot less of these threads. I'm just saying, the son of a ***** can't move out of the way of a TANK going full speed; he's sure as hell not going to catch your ass. Because FPS gamers don't know terminology like "cover" and "tactical retreat"
