Leovarian L Lavitz Opus Arcana Covert Intervention 380	Posted - 2013.08.03 04:02:00 - [1] - Quote The AR is a hit-scan weapon which fires 750 rounds per minute as long as you hold the trigger down. Fighting with it is as easy as pointing it in an enemy's direction and letting them walk in front of it, boom dead. If they get frisky, do lots of hopping, all you have to do is swipe your hit scan laser pointer (ahem, AR) over them a few times, and boom, dead. It isn't OP, it is designed with easy button for those without skill to play the game. No bullet time, no need to lead the shots, large clip size, no overheat, long distance and high power. just swipe it over the enemy a few times, ???, profit. It may not have any draw-backs, and have great fitting stats, but it isn't over powered at all. It is simply easy mode. You can use it in all situations, you can actually hit things above you with it, (unlike explosive weapons), you can fire the entire clip without over heating, (unlike laser weaponry and heavy machine guns), you can ads with it for very accurate long range shots, it's great in a squad( just have the whole squad swiping their hit-scan weapon over the enemy a few times, ???, profit). As easy mode as it gets.

Killar-12 Molon Labe. League of Infamy 400	Posted - 2013.08.03 04:11:00 - [6] - Quote Before I say anything else I have a question What skill does the AR take that no other weapon has?

I was so upset that you ran from me every single time we met on the battlefield. I managed to pick off the rest of your people in 1v1s, and was quite proud of it.

itsmellslikefish DIOS X. II Top Men. 154	Posted - 2013.08.03 04:16:00 - [12] - Quote Come now ladies theres no need to debate this topic. The AR is a weapon only a select few can use. You need certain qualifications. To name one you need a strong trigger finger, I'm sure the tactic of pray n sprays really hard on the pointer finger, poor guys.

I'm not sure, please enlighten me.

DeadlyAztec11 Max-Pain-inc Dark Taboo 1772	Posted - 2013.08.03 04:20:00 - [17] - Quote Same applies to the ND Shoot around them till there dead. If they get jumpy, you jump even more!

Coleman Gray GunFall Mobilization Covert Intervention 396	Posted - 2013.08.03 04:22:00 - [20] - Quote If people didn't have a easy to use weapon to hold their hands how else would some people look good?

Smoky Fingers Red Star. EoN. 107	Posted - 2013.08.03 04:22:00 - [21] - Quote Well at least AR's not OP as stated by op. So does that mean it's not getting nerfed?

So does that mean it's not getting nerfed? CCP wouldn't nerf the AR to balance it with other weapons, they would nerf the other weapons so so nothing is viable except the easy mode, hit-scan AR.

You'd probably complain about Guile throwing too many Sonic Booms in Street Fighter too. Holy . It's designed** without the need to have any skill to use it, that's why it is on every single starter suit in the game. The devs know that it is easy mode, and deliberately made it so. Many people I know have tried the other weapons, but then went back to their ar because it is simply 'better'. It's so easy and simple to use, even you can use it, even I can use it. I haven't used a direct fire weapon in a long time; been suicide grenadeing people, nova knives (those got buffed, so straight melee people) or use pistols. Six months without an ar, and then pick one up and my kdr jumps between 9 to 17 per match. It's easy mode, get over it.
Nemo Bluntz TeamPlayers EoN. 199	Posted - 2013.08.03 04:39:00 - [25] - Quote I hate the way that the all around weapon can be used in an all around fashion.

Nemo Bluntz TeamPlayers EoN. 199	Posted - 2013.08.03 04:42:00 - [27] - Quote I still don't get the complaint. Back in the beta (edit: back when I had easy access to the following), lasers had their purpose (usually anus peak). Great at mid-midlong range, not so good anywhere else. SMGs and shot guns are good at open close range. Mass Drivers and Flaylocks are great in tight close range, snipers are great at long rangers etc., etc. ARs aren't easy mode. They are the median weapon, and the most comfortable weapon for most FPS players. Get over it.

Game skill required to be effective in dust (high kdr with weapon) from lowest skill (entry level) to master level as of 1.3: Easiest - Swarm Launcher Easy Mode - Assault Rifle / Assault scrambler rifle / Sub Machine Gun / Scrambler rifle Easy - Mass Driver / Flaylock Just above Easy - Heavy machine gun Moderate - Nova Knives Moderate - Forge Gun Challenging - Pistol Imposssibruuu - Plasma Cannon
