Sniper rifles only work for long ranges, shotguns take more skill to use as CQC weapon. ARs are much easier to handle with no recoil, have excellent range, pinpoint accuracy, and excellent hip fire. It's the hands down choice of weapon to use for anyone from the highly skilled to the novice players. No recoil ? Excellent Range ? Pinpoint accuracy ? and Excellent hip fire ? ......CCP... can i have the AR that this guys are talking about ? because the one i using, have none of that things 
Try the TAC, it's got all of those things in spades. |

I tried the TAC..And i can't use it with the mouse... so i reverted back to my old, reliable GEK-38. I think only DS3 users get a decent firing rate with the TAC....Maybe CCP should nerf the DS3, and not the mouse ?
I take it your mouse doesn't have onboard macros? |

Yeah, so sniper rifle is good at extremely long ranges and shotgun I good at extremely close ranges.
But for the other 95% of ranges where most engagements take place, the AR absolutely dominates. That's the problem.
Why do you think every modern military on this planet fields an assault rifle as the primary weapon? Supplemented with the other stuff, but... the main rifle issued is an assault rifle. It's the jack of all trades weapon. Welcome to real life. Is it probable that a game emulating combat would somewhat follow reality?
We're playing a video game, what matters is if the gameplay is FUN. Why bother with supplying us with all of these different weapons if only fools and casuals will ever bother using them? The great things about video games is that they can suspend reality for the sake of excitement, diversity, enjoyment, etc. This game has a lot of cool weapons with fun to use mechanics, but the DPS of the assault rifle mixed with it's very large efficiency range makes all of those cool weapons with fun mechanics obsolete.
When the simplest and easiest gun in the game is also, by far, the most powerful and most versatile, the gameplay suffers. Generally with FPS, the easier a gun is to use, the lower it's DPS. This way, using weapons with more complicated aiming mechanics, or with tougher to manage drawbacks are offset by their higher damage. In this game, it's exactly the opposite, the easier the gun is to use, the more damage it does. It doesn't make any sense from a gameplay perspective. |
