ReGnUM Public Relations wrote:crazy space 1 wrote:Ok from what I understand they are not changing the range on the assault rifle. My friend finally got back to me and said the stats were the same at fanfest....
So why is everyone acting like it's been nerfed to uselessness? No one complained about it before we trained sharpshooter past 2 for the 1st 2 months. Are people just too used to the broken range increase skill? Nothing has changed, on the 6th the AR will go right back to where it was every single other wipe.... Where you at Fanfest? Did you play the new build? I love when people post 5th sourced information, and act like their opinion holds any weight over countless other posts. I played the new build a lot. The Gallente with its attributes, right now, does not offer enough for a incentive for me to use it as a primary. How about you play the new build first before acting like Mr know it all
So, do any of the weapons actually have a satisfactory range, or are they all just pretty much junk now? How about the Tac AR (did they fix the TAR?) or the laser. Man I am starting to get so disapointed with this whole thing.
Please help. I am desperate for info on this subject. |

Remember when Manus Peak wasn't dominated by snipers that could hit you in your redline from theirs? I miss those days.
You know, I pride my self for my abilities as a marksman in real life. I can make a two inch pattern with open sights at two hundred and fifty yards with a simi automatic assault rifle, and with a fully auto I can completely obliterate a target, with controled bursts at the same range. I want some reality in this game. That is all I am asking for. |

Not trolling, I'm legitimately curious.
I've got another legitimate counter question for you. How many guys have died in RL wars because they thought guys like me were OP and shouldn't exist? |

All of this stuff functions in reality perfectly fine. It all just needs to be set up realistically. Javelins are fine if they would give us 5 to 10 mile maps to hide a tank in like they are suposed to be doing, and proper ways to gather ground intel. As far as orbitals go, with friendly fire on, no they wouldn't. |

So when is it coming. I haven't heard anything about it for this build. So that means we're stuck with the ridiculously short ranges until fanfest next year. Not only that but that only takes care of one weapon type. I'm an avid SMG an SP user and these weapons will also have ridiculously short ranges. |

You would think an SMG user would be used to CQC by now 
No dude. I want the option between CQC and ranged combat. As it stands now, it what I am hearing is correct ranged combat will no longer be an option outside of a sniper rifle, and I effin hate snipers. How the hell is this ok. |

80-110M or range sounds pretty long range to me, so what's your problem?
I know the ranges with sharp shooter unskilled, and it is not at all satisfactory. I know these ranges because every once and a while I come across some green as hell mood who has sharpshooter completely unskilled and I think to myself damn that duds range I firkin pathetic.
The-áranges you gave are max possible ranges. Optimal is another story entirely:
Tactical Assault Rifle
Max Range: 110m
Optimal Range: 1 - 71m
Meta Level: 2
Assault Rifle
Max Range: 78m
Optimal Range: 1 - 35m
Meta Level: 1
Now if the tactical assault rifle has been made to be a viable weapon again, then yes I will not be so upset with the removal of sharpshooter where ARs are concerned (the tactical was the only AR I ever used when it was a viable weapon) but this still for the SMG or SP. |
