So I'm looking at the optimal ranges of turrets in EVE right now. CCP already said that the current ARs are actually placeholders for the upcoming 4 races rifles. Following EVE's optimal ranges, imo:
-Gallente AR: 40m. Blasters in EVE have more optimal than projectiles, but since this is the highest ROF rifle it just logical to leave as it is since it's more suitable for CQC.

-Minmatar Combat Rifle: 50m CCP says it's going to be a burst-type rifle, so it needs to have a bit more range than Gallente AR so it's good at mid range and follows EVE autocannon turrets optimals.

-Amarr Scrambler Rifle: 60m for the assault variant and 70m for the semi auto variant. These are both pulse laser technology, which have much more optimal than a blaster and projectile turret. Both have the highest accuracy rating atm while having lower range than both Gallente ARs (std and TAR), which it's strange.

Amarr Laser Rifle: 100m. Currently 80m optimal is just too low for a laser rifle. I want to see them on rooftops again. This range should make them viable again.

-Caldari Rail Rifle: 110m. If this is a railgun it's supposed to have crazy range, much more than the other close-mid range rifles. CCP says it's going to be like the breach variant, slow rate of fire and very high damage. I think it's better to just act like a small railgun with very small spool time between shots. Either way, range.

Check each optimal range at the bottom of each link. Any feedback, thoughts |

LOL 110m = crazy range.
Yeah, ranges should be double at the very least for all guns. |

Agreed, weapons have a place now that we don't have the sharpshooter skill. Still the LR and SR need their ranges buff so they can be useful. |

Having a gun that fires a projectile/beam of hot light of some sort that does X damage up to Y metres distance then does zero damage at Y+0.0001 metres is ludicrous.
It's all about the fall-off.
Sorry for my ignorance, but what is fall-off? Are you suggesting a very large range for all the weapons? |
