I've heard that there is a shooting skill of some type staying in for those two weapons, but it's supposed to be spread reduction, not range. I'm personally speccing back into Logi during Uprising. As much as I love the Forge Gun, I felt like I was actually being an asset to my team when I was acting as combat medic. And the HMG just makes me rage endlessly. I'm sick of that thing.
In the 2nd podcast with CCP Proctorian, I can't remember his name exactly, it was said by him that assault rifle operations was getting changed. At present each level gives a 5% reduction in both spread and recoil. This is being changed to just recoil being reduced with operations, and sharpshooter being changed to just reducing spread.
There's been nowhere I've read that says the same for SMGs. There has been nowhere I've read that says there won't be a skill that can increase range. Just that sharpshooter is being changed to something that makes more sense for the skill name's connotations from real life. Who says that there isn't another skill or equipment or modification that'll increase range that CCP hasn't told us about that'll come in the near future if not in Uprising.
Extended barrels and magnum ammo for increased range but with reduced mobility for the former and higher recoil for the latter. Improved plasma chambers or or more capacitors for relevant weapons to give similar bonuses to magnum ammo. Plenty of options.
My main is a heavy and I'm in full agreement that CCP needs to give some love. People need to chill out though as we don't know what the exact details are for either Uprising or beyond. They've said in Fanfest that they know they heavy only has one racial suit option but they've the others coming soon. Haha, yes it's 'soon'. Anyway, I'm still having a lot of fun using the heavy class, with a sprinkle of others, and will keep doing so after the 6th of May. A big shout out to all the logibros that keep me on my feet, when I can find ye, lol. |
