AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
The AR and flaylock are the only good weapons left in the game, nerf that and everything will be balanced. Oh wait, I think you didn't get the memo, this isn't supposed to be a twitch shooter. That thing were people don't die in 3 bullets? Yeah, that's how it's supposed to be.
Buff the AR?

To do this other guns needs buffs as well to keep up and be real weapons. So...buff all guns? Oddly enough, CCP may be doing just that in 1.2. How about we all drop the nerf threads for a week and find out? Hopefully they're smart enough to not buff the AR |

Hopefully they're smart enough to not buff the AR They're only giving it an Absolute range beyond the falloff, which means that it'll do damage out further, but at a far higher penalty-per-meter. I don't mind that, it'll happen to all weapons. |

To do this other guns needs buffs as well to keep up and be real weapons. So...buff all guns? Yes. That was the problem when they killed the Tac rifles (which did need to be pulled back a bit, instead they got the ******* nerf hammer). They took the only gun in the game really worth using, and instead of pulling up everything, and pulling that back just an inch, to be fair in that way, they knocked it down to meet the other totally useless gun standards. It's like they're trying to carve out what everyone expects to be Michelangelo's David, but instead of using a chisel they're using a sledge hammer. Me thinks you don't understand how balance works
All weapons suck = balance = no weapons suck All weapons are good = balance= no weapons are good.
Now, if your problem is with long TTK (time to kill), then perhaps this game isn't your style
When you say the TAR was "the only gun in the game really worth using", you say it because it required a shorter TTK right? Well longer TTK's is specifically what we're going for here. Sorry to break the news to you. This is supposed to be a strafe shooter, bad hit detection and aiming ruin that, but it's what it's supposed to be. |

Oh hell no, I miss chromosome.
Just pointing out that you saying that some weapon is "the only weapon in the game worth using" does imply there is a problem in regards to balance.
Obviously we don't want CoD level TKKs, but overly long TKKs are also a problem. |

This is of course when I'm not drinking a Mike's Hard. |

If you nerf the AR anymore, it will be easier to just remove it from the game altogether, because no one will use it any longer. None of those were touched, but keep telling yourself that |

Banning Hammer wrote:Tharak Meuridiar wrote:The problem isn't so much that the AR is OP as that too many other guns are UP.
The AR toting masses don't like anything that can kill them, so as soon as a weapon that can be competitive with the AR emerges they fill the forums with tears until it gets nerfed.
For instance right now. I get killed by an LAV about once for every 25-50 times I die, whereas ARs account for about 70% of those deaths.
Yet this is the first "AR is OP" thread I have seen, while I've seen more anti-"murder taxi" threads than I can shake a stick at.
Here's my solution:
De-nerf the shotgun, de-nerf the mass driver, de-nerf the laser rifle, buff the plasma cannon, add proto tanks, keep LAVs as they are.
Tell the AR toting masses to freaking adapt, because this isn't meant to be a one gun game. The AR toting masses are about 70% of Dust 514 population... go a head, make the AR unuseful, i will come back to laugh at your faces when the player base drops bellow 1000. You can't force people to use the Weapon YOU like, like it or not the AR is a popular weapon in ALL FPS games. At no point in time did he suggest a nerf to the AR, oh, yeah I guess no longer being the only useful gun in the game is considered a nerf now? Geez you're dumb |

Banning Hammer wrote: I just explaining the reason why people gets kill by AR's more often than any other weapon.. no Nerfing or "Buffing" is going to change that. You can buff every other weapon as much as you like, people will still prefer the Assault Riffle.
Which is fine, if everyone wants to use an AR then they should, but because they like the playstyle, not because it's the only thing that isn't crap.
Also I find it funny CCP used "numbers" to justify their last round of nerfs, and yet, somehow they completely ignored the AR. MD? Popular, nerf it. HMG? Popular, nerf it. Laser? Popular, nerf it. AR? Most popular gun in the game, leave as is... |

That's a good point. I'd wager the Scrambler rifle is almost as good as the AR and would become the weapon of choice. For the most part, however, I consider the SR to be an AR. It's pretty close anyway. It is a AR but a balanced one with advantages and disadvantages. What exactly are its disadvantages? I would like to honestly know this. Low armor damage, heat buildup, harder to aim than an AR... |
