We'll be making some adjustments to the rifle ranges in the near future. We're currently testing the Rail Rifle and Combat Rifle internally (the two missing archetypes). Within the assault rifle class the four weapon types will break down as follows:

Assault Rifle (Hybrid - Plasma) - short range
Combat Rifle (Projectile - Autocannon) - short-mid range
Scrambler Rifle (Laser - Pulse) - mid range
Rail Rifle (Hybrid - Railgun) - long range

Keep in mind though that long range for an assault rifle is not equivalent to long range for a sniper rifle, so while they will adhere to existing category definitions don't expect massive differences in the distances between these weapons
A lot of the original assault rifle variants (Breach, Burst, Tactical) were created to fill the gaps these newer weapons will fill and so mightGÇÖve felt out of place (not to mention we just plain made mistakes with some of them). The scrambler rifleGÇÖs optimal range will be increased and weGÇÖll be releasing an iteration of the Tactical Assault Rifle with a smaller clip and much wider hip-fire spread making it less effective in CQC. If that change alone does not prove enough we will walk the damage of the TAR down slowly. No big, sweeping changes this time.

I suggest you guys check out the dev posts each time you get on the forums.

Having a weapon that diminishes any incentive to use the other specialized variants because it can do what they do better and can be abused by modded controllers is catering to pubs and scrubs. So, which one are you?

I wonder if Sony has given up on Dust. Destiny is getting exclusive content on PS3/PS4 It's also getting it's Gameplay reveal with a lot more info during Sony's E3 Press Conference. Destiny is also sure to be a good game, better than Dust, at least for now, Dust may be better, in a few years. It won't be as deep or complex as Dust, but most people will see it as a slightly dumbed down Dust but better and not even give a thought to trying this game. I sure hope CCP is ready, and has big plans for this game and soon.

I mean, if they fix the iron sight and distracting lens flare, than you have the same old LR with less range and dmg.......where would skill come into play?

A new flavor has come, and it is not the TAR, the TAR is already on the butcher block, it is the LAV...........

Cheers for this, and the funny thing is, there are a lot of idiots that will not only not read dev posts first, they won't read your post telling them about it either.

Alucard Fang Sand Mercenary Corps Inc. Interstellar Conquest Enterprises 13	Posted - 2013.05.28 07:09:00 - [16] - Quote It has no campaign as far as I know. It's a game where you fight against different NPC factions and explore and do different stuff. There are 3 factions I think. I think there is some form of PvP, but other than that it's just you, or a few friends. The game is huge on Co-Op, but you can play alone too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS1BM9XRgvw

Is only half the game going to be epic with a great story and beautiful maps while the other is loaded with fail like spawn camping and arcade gameplay? Sounds more volatile than mixing Pepsi with Coke.

I am too old for twitch games. I am going to have a heart attack before i am old enough for viagra. I am going to go with SE and "A Realm Reborn" on 8/27 with the rest of the nerds.
