[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Cortland_Brewer [quote]When/where did you play it?[/quote] I haven't, but it doesn't change the fact that there is enough information to make a logical observation based off of confirmed, established numbers. [quote]Refer to my thread if you haven't. LR isn't OP[/quote] It is a primary rifle that has the same firing speed, and damage as the BR [i]except[/i] it doesn't have recoil. While scoped, the gun is single shot, and does more damage than any other weapon. Not only is it more diverse than any other weapon, it is better than the BR unscoped, and the DMR scoped. How is it [i]not[/i] unbalanced? [quote], Boltshot can be countered and its primary is hardly effective. Also, it can only do two secondary shots before running out of ammo in the mag.[/quote] It can be used to quickly drop shields, which already makes it an effective secondary weapon. Even if the overcharge drained the entire supply of ammo, it doesn't matter. The shotgun is a 1sk on at CQC. If you're trying to tell me that a spawning [i]secondary[/i] weapon should be able to deliver the same force as a power weapon.. Obviously you don't understand balance. The game looks great, but mindlessly defending obvious flaws only causes the game to sag.[/quote] Mindlessly? Now that's a bit silly. Go play it and come back to me. DMRs easily counter LRs if they know where the shooter is. The gun isn't that boss while scoped and in close range a BR can outshoot it. As for the Boltshot? Lol. The time it takes to charge and keep the reticule on the enemy can get you killed, or least of all a grenade to the face. Also, only being able to shoot twice if charging limits the kills your going to get by adding in the charging factor. Primary is not effective against any automatic weaponry. As I said, go and play it and stop going from assumptions and videos. Seeing them first hand in action is *gasp* quite different.
