There's nothing worse than waiting those last 0.2 seconds for your scrambler rifle to charge...

Thank you sir.

Pilot suits are pretty much confirmed for 1.3; check the market under light suits.  |

As a scrambler rifle user, I can tell you that when I do charge, I also take extra time to aim: to make sure the shot lands. Missing a charged shot is such a punishing thing with the SR (due to the heat) that the charge time is a non factor in the decision to charge or not.
The decision is always: "Do I have enough time to aim my charge shot?"
The charge shot is also useful to shoot beyond your effective range, into absolute range. But even then the question is never about charge time, because aiming at 100m with a RDS is hard and so you still take longer to aim than charge.
So yeah; the charge bonus isn't just useless on the assault variant, it's also useless on the regular SR.

The passive bonus not applying to the Assault Scrambler Rifle is known and it is currently the design of the weapon to have this. This does not mean the weapon will not be changed in the future. In fact, we're going to be rebalancing many of the items in the games in the near future and the Scrambler Rifle and all its variants will be looked at as well, though this does not necessarily mean we will decide to make a change with it.
As for vehicles, we'll be saying something about them in the next day or two. That sounds like a customer support automated response. Also, the bolded underlined part, you're just stating the obvious and once again completely missing the point; no one is disputing that its the design of the weapon, and we know that you guys know about it. Once again, that isn't the point.
Yes but changing the bonus would mean touching the skill tree.  |
