That thing is firing plasma bullets which are at least 1-2 million 'c. So why the hell doesn't it overheat like the scrambler rifle??!!

because gallente are better engineers and more advanced than amarr.

Is this a real question? Have you ever shot a gun? Did it over heat and burn your hand after you were done with it?

Is this a real answer? Have you ever shot a gun that shoots plasma? C'mon now.

Because it holds between 48-72 ammo and takes a few seconds to reload? why does the submaching gun not overheat, why does the pistol not overheat, why does my grenade not overheat

SCR has to be reloaded too

ok take that into thought and then compare damage output and ammo type

Shhh, the AR takes the most skill to use

your argument is flawed because ARs have higher average DPS too

just a small lesson for you:

GEK-38 Assault Rifle
Max Range: 68m
Optimal Range: 1 - 40m

CRD-9 Assault Scrambler Rifle
Max Range: 73m
Optimal Range: 1 - 29m

GLU-5 Tactical Assault Rifle
Max Range: 95m
Optimal Range: 1 - 62m

CRW-04 Scrambler Rifle
Max Range: 83m
Optimal Range: 1 - 45m


Overall DPS

Duvolle AR: 467.5
Carthum AS: 465.9

DPS vs Shields

Duvolle AR: 514.3
Carthum AS: 559.1

DPS vs Armor

Duvolle AR: 420.8
Carthum AS: 372.7

in short: ARs have higher range & higher dps. dont waste your SP on SCR, the minor advantage against shields is not worth it.

However, there have been some criticisms of the carbine, such as lower muzzle velocities and louder report due to the shorter barrel, additional stress on parts because of the shorter gas system, and a tendency to overheat faster than the M16A2.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M4_carbine

The US Navy uses M4A1s for Special Operations and by vehicle crews.

Some features of the M4 and M4A1 compared to a full-length M16-series rifle include:

Compact size
Shortened barrel 14.5 in (370 mm), which includes the shorter carbine gas system.
Telescoping buttstock

However, there have been some criticisms of the carbine, such as lower muzzle velocities and louder report due to the shorter barrel, additional stress on parts because of the shorter gas system, and a tendency to overheat faster than the M16A2.

heres a small lesson for you, your mom enjoyed the D.
now, go post something real and not just look for comments to counter.

obvious denial is obvious. I will enjoy your butthurt and tears when the nerfhammer hits the ARs

it really couldn't hit it any harder, but when it does i'll be ready.. just as I have been since closed beta.. there will always be tears from those who hate it, and tears from those who use it when the haters get thier way.. ( ironsights, horrible spray) but I will continue to use mine just as I have always done.

The way this is going... we going to have to use the AR as a melee weapon..and even then, they probably going to try nerfing that too.

the breach was slightly overnerfed and the TAR was overbuffed in exchange a build later. your point?

it is fact that:
-the TAR beats the LR at LR optimal range but the LR is supposed to be king at its this ranges.
-the TAR beats the regular AR at medium to close range (the irony is strong in this one) but the TAR was never supposed to be better than the regular AR at its domain, in short TAR is definately too good.
-the AR has more optimal range than SCR and deals more dps on average.

I also find it really amusing that people claim that AR recoil and ADS is bad. you want too see bad recoil? get the SMG. you want to see really bad ADS, check out the LR. also the TARs hipfire hits up to 40m reliable and the ADS kick is almost cosmetical, it always hits where you aim with it.

you can be pretty sure that there will be a nerf but not because people "cry" on the forum. CCP is collecting & reviewing statistics about the matches. everyone uses the TAR because it is the best weapon out there and the DEVs know this and are most likely working on a solution already.

I thought we was talking about the Assault Rifle... not the Tactical Assault Rifle ... which by the way, i don't use.

the tactical assault rifle is also an assault rifle.


and regarding AR vs SCR only, well you dont have to be a genius to realize that ARs do overall more dps, still have more optimal range and dont overheat. why should someone waste SP for the SCR when you can get the AR which is overall better?

What the kitten you talking about ....

AR - Militia rifle / GEK-38 / Duvolle Assault rifle

TAR - GLU-5 Tactical Assault Rifle / Duvolle Tactical Assault Rifle

And the AR been a good ASSAULT weapon.... what a shock....

because gallente are better engineers and more advanced than amarr.

I see you dont get it, no point arguing with someone in denial.

My theory is that the plasma bullets can be shot without causing substantial friction with the barrel, or any other component of the,weapon. While the Scrmbler rifle and Laser rifle are both laser weapons (Scrambler is pulse laser). So I suspect that it has to go through lenses to focus the light; in between these lenses it could reflect off things like the barrel, heating it up.

Just a wild theory from my imagination. :D

from my understanding: the standard assault rifles are fine.

The TARs though are an absolute joke. being far too powerful. I understand the concept of a battle rifle, and I love them. but if anything, they need to be best for mid-long. not close quarters.

That thing is firing plasma bullets which are at least 1-2 million 'c. So why the hell doesn't it overheat like the scrambler rifle??!!

So you think that an ASSAULT rifle, shouldn't be good as and an ASSAULT weapon... ? and that the SCR should be better as an Assault weapon than the AR is ?

And you say i'm in denial.....

stupidity at its finest

because the SCR is not the amarr assault rifle right

SCR = SCrambler Rifle

You have lots of different types of rifles ;

- Sniper Rifles

- Hunting Rifles

- Fully automatic Rifles

- Semi-automatic rifles

- Laser Rifles

- Assault Rifles

and so on....

because there is no assault scrambler rifle that you can buy in the market, right?

You dont have to be a genius to forecast that your butthurt will be epic when the AR gets nerfed and I will enjoy every minute of it. do yourself a favor and stop posting

That thing is firing plasma bullets which are at least 1-2 million 'c. So why the hell doesn't it overheat like the scrambler rifle??!!

But scramblers fire plasma......
It says so in the discription. Plasma super heated by lasers.

So you think that an ASSAULT rifle, shouldn't be good as and an ASSAULT weapon... ? and that the SCR should be better as an Assault weapon than the AR is ?

And you say i'm in denial.....

Actually i starting to see what Joystig means about the "Future potential tied to EVE Online" been a CON... hard to the defend a game that is constantly trying to kill itself....

Large blaster turrets over heat.
Small blaster turrets over heat.
Blaster installations over heat.

But blaster rifles don't? If they had some tech that would make the rifles not overheat, why wouldn't they use it in the other blasters?

because FPS don't make overheat mechanics on weapons with small mag sizes as the mag is meant to take the place of overheating why they did it for the SR is beyond me the ASR shouldn't overheat.
