can agree there G. the burst is crappy since of the 7 rnd burst b/c the 1st & last usually dont hit & has a "uncontrollable" recoil pattern.

best thing would probably breduce burst recoil to nothing like it was in codex (and should since is going to rnd burst). TAR needs a lower ROF, that will hinder those who "used" modded controllers. The breach needs a slight increase in ROF.

that will probably solve the uselessness of the AR variantions

Actually breach probably needs a dmg buff as well because it has a very small range so just a slight increase in the ROF wont be enough to overcome its weakness.

Nooo, simply for factCCP doesn't know how to do 2 things at once. Let them do one thing first and we can see how it works

CCP tried that already and people considering themselves "pro" started abusing turbo controllers and totally broke the flow of the game. That said, if they would add a fast heat-fast cool mechanic so people would have to use the weapon in bursts of 2 or 3 I could get behind a recoil reduction.
Rei Shepard Spectre II 95	Posted - 2013.03.22 12:52:00 - [5] - Quote All the AR variants are underpowered vs the stock version, i keep trying them but when i swap back to the stock version people just die faster.

ZiwZih The Tritan Industries 85	Posted - 2013.03.22 13:43:00 - [7] - Quote I guess Burst was lapsus calami and you thought on Breach. Yes, both Tactical and Breach are 'over-fixed'. TAR either needs lesser recoil or more damage per shot. Complaints on people with modded Sixaxis abusing it means damage buff is preferable, I guess. Also, mouse makes it a bit better to use now. Breach I never tried, but people with experience with it stated many times on many Feedback post about it being useless. Pity how AR fix lessen the variety you see on the field.

N1ck Comeau Planetary Response Organisation Test Friends Please Ignore 125	Posted - 2013.03.22 13:47:00 - [9] - Quote They do need to buff them the burst is almost useless it needs less recoil and more range. The breach should be the opposite of what is now. It should be an 900 rpm gun with high recoil and big hip spread. Its major advantage would be it's fast time to kill. When i think breach i think going through a door into a close quarters fight. I want a high rate of fire gun for that.

And you would become a GOD when you train the skill on top of this recoil nerf Like many here I have perfect skill, plus I am using a mouse which makes TAR a bit easier and I tell you recoil is too high... At least for that damage output. And relax my dear, CCP has a huge history of over-nerfing and over-buffing things. TAR is one such a thing. Noone here is asking it to become a godly weapon.

IIRC Burst has 0 recoil. Only thing users of it asked was to lessen the burst from 8 to 3 bullets, I think. But then, I haven't used it in a while.

Absurd damage aside, the weapon could hit not just hit from B to C on the old Manus Peak with sharp shooter prof 1, While laser lineing rounds into peoples dome piece. For those of you unfamiliar with that map that was like a 350m gap. As for the turbo controller my roommate purchased a cheap one for proof of concept, it worked like a charm permitting him to go 45/3 with little effort, he honestly is not that good. Said controller was promptly placed on a shelf as a trophy for pioneering failed game design. We would have recorded it, if it wasn't for NDA but we needed proof for forum fuel to flame the weapon to its current broken state. While unfortunate, the game only had one option for fitting. Which constitutes game breaking in most minds.
Jason Pearson Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 755	Posted - 2013.03.22 14:28:00 - [14] - Quote Will disagree on the burst. I wreck faces with it. Especially the Allotek/Gorewreck variants.. they're lethal.
semperfi1999 Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 374	Posted - 2013.03.22 14:37:00 - [15] - Quote Proto is the only worthwhile burst. Breach is worthless and needs change. Tac needs recoil lowered if you want to fix the issue with modded controllers then change the max ROF to be similar to breach.
Sete Clifton PSU GHOST SYNDICATE 71	Posted - 2013.03.22 14:44:00 - [16] - Quote For the TAR, one solution might be to model it after the DMR from Reach (think it might have changed for H4). Basically, if you shoot it as fast as it allows, you lose a lot of accuracy. So the idea is that you actually have to shoot it slightly slower in order to get the maximum performance out of it. However, if you shoot it too slow, then you're losing a lot of DPS. So it's a balancing act with the RoF. That should allow for them to reduce the recoil, but still counter turbo controllers. It should also make it require enough skill that it's high damage shouldn't be a problem.
2-Ton Twenty-One Imperfects Negative-Feedback 346	Posted - 2013.03.22 14:47:00 - [17] - Quote most variants of most weapons need a buff/change
G Torq ALTA B2O 104	Posted - 2013.03.22 19:02:00 - [18] - Quote Seems I need to add a bit more.... (Disclaimer, I've played with TARs in the 2 previous builds, and currently have AR lvl 4) The TAR should have following changes applied to it: RoF to be in the 400-600 shots per minute range (6.6-10.0 shots per second) Recoil should be reduce BY A SMALL AMOUNT* Damage should be increase by 5 hp Price can actually go up a bit This, I think, would help the TAR, and largely prevent modded controllers. ) People seem to think that when I said "reduced slightly", I meant "removed" - I mean "slightly" as in not very much, as in keep most of the current kick/climb also, Judy Maat wrote:* G Torq wrote: Agreed - TARs should have the recoil reduced slightly.

Micheal JF IMPSwarm Negative-Feedback 3	Posted - 2013.03.22 19:30:00 - [21] - Quote I still think of the TAR as a high damage low RoF weapon I think the damage should be almost doubled and the bounce toned down just a little bit to were it does not kick like the Tac sniper rifle. And I mean the the bounce needs just to be turned down a tiny bit. A little bit to much and it will be broken again and I want some variety in the AR. The TAR does not need to be just another AR with a better zoom and semi auto make it rather different to make it fill another niche.

EnIgMa99 Imperfects Negative-Feedback 243	Posted - 2013.03.22 20:15:00 - [25] - Quote I would like the TAC Ar to be as it once was, nerf the fire rate if that was the real issue. I have noticed a trend, I have used TAC Ar and everyone on the forum asked for nerfs, now I use the laser rifle and again people ask for nerfs. I think there is another underlying thing behind this.
IRuby Heart DIOS EX. 460	Posted - 2013.03.22 20:20:00 - [26] - Quote Leave the Burst rifle alone. It's perfectly fine as is. If anything should be done to it, it should be an increase to 5 bullets per burst.

Admittedly I haven't used them myself. And although I'm in favour of a TAC buff, given the lack of effective LR counters, it's possible that the upcoming scrambler rifle will fulfil that role.

I've been using the Allotek Prototype model. Maybe it's different for each model or CCP is showing me 3 bullets leave my barrel when really 7 are being shot. EDIT: I haven't used in a good week or so. Did they patch it?
