I hate the Tac as much as anybody, but I have to admit that cooking a flux and then launching the suspiciously fast firing Tac AR C. Logistics guy into the air with a single Flaylock missile is suuuuuper satisfying. |

Scrambler Rifles are already balanced by their heat build up 'feature', and everybody hates the Scrambler Pistol's ADS. If the TryHardsGäó move on to either of those options, I would consider the problem solved.
As a shield tanking close quarters fighter, the SR should be the 'Rock' to my 'Scissors'. Too bad they let everybody bring 'Bulldozer' into this game. |

Forge Guns, fire into a crowd and you're going to at least take two of them down, Flaylocks, get a direct hit, and it's instakill, plus splash damage to any of his buddies around him.
TAR, AT LEAST half a clip expired actually trying to hit something in a frantic CQC firefight, and unless you're extremely methodical with longer range shots, you're going to be missing him by a hair.
A. Everything is OP when you are camping a drop uplink with it. B. People with crazy shield tanks going on can take three direct hits with an advanced Flaylock without dying, and other reds have to be practically touching them in order to feel the splash damage. (2.5 meters is the most splash you can ever get.) C. Firing anything with high damage into a crowd will net some kills or at least a bunch of assists.
The problem is that the Tac keeps doing every other gun's specific job better than they can. |

No, this is a war game, you are going to die, regardless, I personally think they should just change the name of TAR to something completely random one day and see if people still moan about it, or if it's just sheep mentality between the people that take themselves far too seriously.
While I'm sure there are people out there who want it nerfed because they are butthurt about dying to it (re: every 'ZOMG Forge Guns OP!!!' thread), the real issue is that there is no reason to use any other gun. This isn't the first time this has happened either; there was the dumbfire swarm launcher, the Creodron Breach AR, the Minddrive SMG, and instantly detonating Remote Explosives before. Long after the Tac AR has faded back into obscurity, there will undoubtably be another God Gun that everyone will flock to. (First for easy kills, and later just to be competitive with the early adopters.) |
