It's only overpowered because the hipfire accuracy is too high. it should really have close to zero accuracy when hipfired.
I would also suggest lowering the ammo per magazine, upping the reload time, an ADS delay on par with the HMG or sniper rifle, and applying a hard refire time to prevent exploitation.
I don't know why I bother making reasonable suggestions when I know full well they're just going to nerf the thing into the ground and make it completely useless. |

It's because, although you are all trash players who should probably just delete dust from your PS3 before you chain it to your car and drag it through the street, we still want the illusion that the game is fun and competitive for everyone before we take everything you hold dear and ruin the experience for you. |

No. I refuse...
Ok, I did. and you're sort of right but sort of wrong. The tac rifle is supposed to be a sniper/AR hybrid, not a high capacity pistol.
It should have a unique place on the battle field that caters to a certain playstyle and you do that by keeping the thing that makes it great, Long range/high damage, and getting rid of everything else.

I would agree when it is used against players of a comparable SP and Gear level. The problem I'm noticing is that when these higher tier weapons are used against lower tier players, the lower tier players feel like they are OP and need to be nerfed because they are not equipped with the core skills and the gear to defend against/counter the higher tier players and their better equipment.
Well, the higher gear players are noticing that the TAC AR is very effective in close quarters. More so than a fully tricked out HMG.
I also do consider that part of its effectiveness is the fact that it isn't as effected by lag as the full auto weapons because you constantly nag the server with requests that it recognize your existence.
But the weapon is out of its element and is THE go to all around AR choice ATM. That's not where it belongs. |

It's not about what you are killed by, it's about the specific job a weapon is supposed to perform. why even have an AR when the TAC AR fills not only its own role but that role as well. |

Everything tends to get muddy in the flame wars over nerfs and the DEVs, gawd love em, they fail miserably at making everyone happy. But, not everyone can work for Valve and those people need to eat, too. I understand that...
We have an opportunity here to finally put a chisel in front of Wolfman's nerf hammer and set a trend for the way the game should be balanced in the future.
Give everything a reason to exist or get rid of it altogether. |

I just posted my idea for matchmaking HERE
WP matchmaking will severely limit low level ques as time goes on and sort of punish those who play even after their bonus cap has been reached. |
