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....
How are bullets actually being able to travel "broken"?
Sure you're playing the right genre? |

I've used a character with no Sharpshooter skills, and confirmed that my character also can't reach the points used as examples.
So I'm pretty sure OP is right and that there hasn't been a nerf to AR range, but the loss of Sharpshooter means that a weapon that's intended to be a short-range hybrid weapon based on Blaster technology isn't a serious threat against a specifically long-range hand-held railgun. Sounds like it's working as intended.
It so happens that the intended mechanics are not fun in any way shape or form. |

80-110M or range sounds pretty long range to me, so what's your problem?
You realize that in US army basic training the 50 meter target is the closest possible target for an M16? The farthest is at 300 meters. This is with your typical M16 with an iron sight, not even a scope.
So basically what im saying is, you guys can't even aim a fake gun with no weight, requiring no breath control, WITH aim assist, at a third the distance of your typical enlisted farmboy.
Yea, that's pretty damned pathetic. And you think its long range... LOL. |
