This has gone too far. When I use a laser, some a-hole with sharpshooter gets me. When I use an HMG, he can out dps me. When I use a shotgun he kills me way too easily.

The point is, the AR is a hugely overpowered weapon and needs a major reduction in damage, range, and a recoil increase.

The iron sights are a step in the right direction, but there needs to be more done to prevent more than 70% of the player base to destroy using an assault rifle.

AR just need more recoil and HMG need a bonus as suppression fire, why the hell anyone should aim correctly under a rain of bullets?

If I ever see you in game, I will destroy you with my AR. I will make it my personal mission to hunt you down and destroy you.

Man, I can't keep up with who's trolling and who's really butthurt anymore FFFFFFFF..........

Yes. +1, not everyone uses an AR. I mean, come on, clearly it needs to be buffed.

Once uprising comes out, people will be QQing to nerf sentinels.

Just my opinion, but I think the AR needs to continue to be mediocre at everything to avoid making other weapons, which are good for specific purposes and gameplay styles, near useless.

I guess it would depend on what got buffed.

Actually it will end up just like your tank test drives. SP skill, Player skill, and equipment levels are a huge factor in whatever class you play as. Also, militia heavy suits are made of toilet paper.

This has gone too far. When I use an AR some a-hole with sharpshooter on his HMG gets me across the map. When I use an AR, an HMG across the map can out dps me. When I use a shotgun and come near he kills me way too easily.

The point is, the HMG/Heavy combo is a hugely overpowered weapon and needs a major nerf in damage, range, and recoil decrease

Right now it barely overheats, and Heavy's can just dominate close range. I don't know why considering they're not the only cqc weapons.

Yes, because there's no proto HMG right?

The appropriate counter to an HMG is a mass driver, laser rifle, sniper rifle, Duvolle AR, shotgun, or Locus grenade. And actually, scrambler pistols work pretty well if you can get headshots. But anything else and you--

Oh, and the GEK's can usually hold their own.

But anything else and you'd better run!

The HMG does not need nerfed. As soon as sharpshooter no longer affects range (as is intended with the 6th build), HMGs, Shotguns, and other weapons that can now shoot way too far now will no longer be able to.

This really is an impressive troll thread. First AR's, then HMG's and now tanks. Did I miss any?

I see what you did there.

its a troll thread now

I hope you all realized that this was a troll thread from the beginning.

it was so fun. :D til the next thread ppl.

see u there.
