You say he wasn't aiming, he most certainly was, he was also spamming the trigger, but he was aiming, since most of his shots were from a distance.
And he was using trajectory prediction as well. I believe the forge-gunners call it "leading", but nah, clearly he was just shooting randomly 
How anyone can watch that video and think "man, that guy is skilled" while toasting every enemy in sight with his sidearm and just a couple clicks....just.....

They're going to be the kind of significant that renders the weapon useless, because it isn't an AR.
I know, how dare they take the Flaylock from being a light weapon and turning it into a side arm
Preposterous |

The bottom line is simple, this isn't Dust 514 anymore, it's AR 514.
Go AR or go home.
I just find it funny how you get so bent out of shape that the primary work horse light weapon of DUST is seen more than the random sidearm. It's a sidearm, it shouldn't be a primary threat on the battlefield like it is now. Like any sidearm, it should either be focused on killing one person at a time, or it should have much lower damage.
If you want a Light Weapon, might I suggest skilling into Light Weapon Operation and going from there.

It's anything not AR. That's the problem. It doesn't matter if the weapon is light, sidearm, or even heavy, if it even comes close to parity, it get's the nerf hammer.
Hail AR 514.
Flaylock exists
MD was basically fixed
LR needs some love
HMG is basically fixed
Scrambler Rifle is doing fine with skilled players
Plasma Cannon is a joke and will be buffed then nerfed then buffed then buffed again, nerfed a couple times, and then it will be back to where it started.
Sniper rifles are fine if not for the draw distance being all screwed up.
There isn't much more you can do to the AR other than giving it jamming / overheat and maybe lowering its damage just a tad. |

So many sweet, delicious, glorious tears. Now just bring LAVs more in line (primarily LLAVs, though specifically impact damage to dropsuits) and bring the Cal lolgi back in line with other lolgi's and we just might start working towards a reasonable state.
Oh, and for the love of kittens, listen to your community and biomass contact nades

I just can't wait to stop watching people switch out from their Godlock to their primary....
In a game right now with a full squad of proto god locks, when they somehow manage to not kill me, they drop to their ARs and can barely touch me LMFAO hahahahahahhaahahhahahhaah |

Sorry but I literally just left a match with a full squad of proto god lock users who had ARs as secondary weapons.
It happens, a lot, just towards the top end of the spectrum. AKA, better players tend to gravitate towards and abuse anything that will give them an unfair advantage.
And lo, Godlock hunting flocks were born. |

Actually you can.
It's called instantly switching to the Godlock (your primary), essentially turning your AR / shotgun / SCR / etc and so forth, into your sidearm.
I've seen this plenty. It's so hilarious. I almost get roasted out of nowhere by some random proto lolgi, but he doesn't kill me. I hardly have any health left, he switches to his sidearm (the AR), and he just barely manages to off me. HAHAHA, this happens most times when I don't just randomly explode.
I'm very curious to see CCPs changes, should be exciting for many and quite tear inducing for many more still
