The AR is supposed to be the jack of all trades the master of none.
It can do well in close to medium-long range.
It shines in medium range, but it can still do something at the other ranges.
An AR user won't kill an HMG at close range (Unless the heavy sucks ballz, in that case there is nothing wrong with it).
An AR user won't outmatch a LR at medium-long range (for those who say it does, wait for the rest of the post)
An AR user can't even reach Sniper Rifle range, so not even going to talk about it.
If you want me to add something to the list, make a comment below.
Anyway, the damage and range is fine.
What ISN'T fine, is the way the recoil works, and damage reduction over range.
The recoil right now is barely noticeable, and if you do have a problem its easy to insta remove it.
That means you can put down accurate shots at any range.
However, confirmed from [CCP]Wolfman from IRC, they tweaked weapon recoil slightly.
Hopefully that means the recoil is no longer a problem.
And the damage over range is almost fine, reduce it by 20% and it would be perfect.
To the nay sayers who think no weapon should do well at any range, should check what the AR is in real life.
Its a weapon that can do very well at most ranges.
Also, the game weapons are balanced around the AR, nerfing it or buffing it in anyway will require them to rebalance every weapon and weapon.
And we all know what can potentially happen when CCP takes the nerf or buff hammer.
I have some important things to do today, so I can't do it right now.
However, as soon as I can I will bring you numbers showing nothing is wrong. |

20% over range.
The AR normal damage is fine. |

The AR normal damage is fine. With that much of a reduction EVERY weapon should get damage reduced outside it's range (or under for snipers an Lrs.)
LR's have 30% damage at close range...
And if you have a problem with SR's at close range, maybe try to dodge. |

lol
I do wonder, is it like COD where the sniper shot is uber inaccurate when you're firing from the hip? |

Eh, I don't remember which game it is that has sniper bullets from the hip literally hit outside of your screen. |

At long range.
But CCP is fixing the Viziam damage, which they said is wrong. |

Seriously this post is months old and is buried under pages after pages.
It's either a script, or he's going after all of my posts. |
