Well its time to burst some of the modded controller using bubbles. To prevent that the scrambler rifle ends up as another version of the former OP tactical assault rifle they decided to put a overheat function on it like with HMG's and laser rifles. Difference is that it is semi automatic and with that its the first semi auto weapon with overheat function. Knowing that you either wont be aible to shot or even worse take damage when the thing overheats. So CCP actually learns from their mistakes and searches for alternative ways to balance weapons that have the potential to get exploited by such scrubs. Brilliant.

Overheat sucks. Sure, we've conquered space travel, but making reliable weapons? Not interested. How about lasers should start strong, and the beam weakens over a few seconds. Hmg should have quicker reloads, but more often.

I don't see what makes people think mashing a button as fast as you can is hard. It's nice getting your weapon nerfed because of crybabies who think someone is cheating just because they can do something you can't

Limiting a gun based on a bunch of people who shouldn't be using it in the first place (read: because they suck with it.) is such a stupid idea.

If done right, yes, over heat has the potential to get rid of the mod scrubs (I just hope they did it right). IMO, what would need to be done, is for the over heat to be time sensitive between button repetitions. That is to say, the faster one pulls the trigger the more heat build up generated between rounds fired. Then all that is required is to take an average of how fast several human beings can pull a trigger, as an acceptable base for button press speed, then set the heat build up to function at nominal with these figures, and any button presses at a faster reputation than nominal would very quickly over heat the weapon; and there you have it, goodby mod scrubs.

*crosses fingers*

if you can't press a mouse button faster than 15 times per second, you never played the metal gear solid torture scenes on the highest difficulty.

Aye atleast you have the ability to switch to a secondary... Like me the idea is- using a carthum scrambler rifle, when it is almost about to overheat, I can switch to my Carthum scrambler pistole.

If it's anything like a HMG you wont be able to do a think before it cools down. Still if it's like a HMG skill level 5, your run out of ammo before you overheat.

I don't think i have ever come across anyone with a "modded controller" or if i did i beat them anyway. I think this is a figment of the community.
