You all are confusing "most used weapon" with "overpowered weapon". You think the AR is too powerful just because it's a vanilla 'go-to' choice for the majority of Dust players. How can you even tell if the AR is OP by itself anyways. You have no idea how heavily specced into AR the people dropping you are.
If it's OP then pick up a militia one and tell me its still too powerful. CCP doesn't favor the AR. The FPS crowd in general does. Learn the difference. |

I literally have no points in infantry skills, and only have militia BPOs for ground gear. Slap on an exile though and I still hit top 4 for kills in most matches 
1. Great. You must be extremely gifted with the AR because this NEVER happens. The exile is pretty crap now, and most people only get anywhere with the proto AR's.
2. If you do so well with it, what are you complaining about? If you can't beat em, join em.

This is completely your opinion. The same could be said of sniping, tanking, and forge gunners./quote]

Like I said above. Great. If they are indeed so amazing, USE IT!!! AR's were at one point the kings pre-chromosome. I've been playing with them through nerf after nerf after buff. I only hope that you don't regret your decision after respec, when CCP sees your thread and decides to nerf them yet again. |

AR vs Heavy/shotgun/smg they just out range you..
AR vs Laser they get close....
AR vs SR pretty even but SR overheats (and does more damage)
Most of the specialized guns do large amounts of damage to either shields or armor...AR does equal damage to both. I use AR and yes the TAC is OP no doubt. I don't think its OP it just can be used in all situations....the other guns are used best in certain situations....if your a heavy and your getting beat by a AR user while trying to engage at 40+m you will loose....if your a laser user getting beat by a AR user at 10m that is not knowing your weapon not a OP gun.
Exactly. And let's not forget that the AR also has no way of increasing the range. They seem OP right now because everyone is using the TacAR that has ridiculous range and damage, with minimal hip fire kick back. |

It all boils down to this. Everyone agrees that the AR is the most balanced weapon (yes of course except the T.AR) so why mess with it. Nerf the nerf threads pls.. |
