I personally think the SMG and maybe even the Scrambler Pistol could use a freaking buff. I have been running around for like two or three days, with an Advanced SMG, and even the freaking MILITIA assault rifle beats me every time. I sit here and want to know who's idea it was to make an SMG even more useless than the militia assault rifle, because they need to be slapped. If I want to run around with an SMG, I shouldn't need a 'better' primary. I should be able to use my SMG as my primary and not have to worry about whether the next Militia Assault rifle will kill me or if I will have to unload half a clip into them before they even know whats going on so that I have a freaking chance of killing them!
"But the SMG has a higher rate of fire, a bigger clip size, and more max ammo! It doesn't need more damage!" Well, when its lethal range is 5 feet, yeah... it kind of does.
Now that I've ranted, you may proceed with the hating. You may begin to call me a noob, insult my intelligence, say you know everything about the game of Dust 516 and I know nothing.
No, go ahead, seriously. I do not mind. I have heard it all before. I speak my mind, the rest of the community insults me and then we move on with our lives. This will very likely be the exact same. |

It used to be able to be have okay range with the old sharpshooting, but now that's in the past. All of the sidearms have their strong points, but they tend to be very situational and you have to create that situation.
What is this situation? Because this thing seems to suck unless I come up behind an unsuspecting target (someone hacking something) and I can empty my entire clip into them before they can react.
Next: Yes, I realize I said dust 516. My fingers weren't working right or some other excuse. I messed up, its my bad.
If these weapons were intended to be sidearms, why can I put them in my Light weapon slot? Why can my minmatar Assault suit give them so much more ammo? Why are there Aur suits that use only sidearms?
@ Django Quik: Explain to me like I'm five, how is the SMG supposed to be used?
Lastly: This may have been a rage-induced, spur of the moment post, but I stand behind it. This SMG is way too niche. |
