Don't care which, just make them behave as should.
Assault rifles are rifles, not SMGs. I don't know where you get this idea anything Gallente must be shortrange by definition.

Bud, most of the weapons are hit scan.
Only stuff like the godlock, the mass driver, the forge gun, etc', are not hit scan.
Also, this. I can't imagine how aiming at the thing you're trying to kill is Cheesier than aiming in the general area and relying on splash damage. |

It's a blaster.
From EVE, blasters are short range but extremely high DPS.
So ? The tiniest blasters you can find in Eve still have a 500m optimal using the shortest range ammo with no skill bonuses.

and those are awful. I guess if it was a light-weapon sized gun that outclassed the SMG at both midrange and CQC hipfiring then that would be cool. In this case they should just be called plasma rifles or blaster rifles and get a new sound. Then the minmatar rifles can be called combat rifles, and the word "assault" can be fully reserved for weapon variants instead of being its own thing for the gallente rifles. That's 3 rifle types plus variants shoved between short-range, mid-range, and long-range. Since Caldari DO use blasters I don't think a rail rifle is necessary except as it already exists in the form of a sniper rifle. Then Minmatar and Amarr can get their own sniper rifles, with blasters being left out.

We're talking about hand held weaponry, not spaceships with blasters larger than a tank.
And the breach being awful has to do with CCP nerfing the crap out of this weapon.
It was OP once, and never recovered from the nerf bat.
It has 100 less DPS and a smaller clip.
Not arguing, just commenting. However the frigate sized light electron blasters are probably smaller than the main gun on a tank. |
