Why change something that works?

2 RepliesIf you're gonna complain, get the gun corrent. It's called the Shingen-C. And I bet you're too butthurt cause you couldn't get one that was good enough in the beta. Relax.

Boy people will always find some weapon that is op no matter what. AR is fine its not op, you're just mad because you got killed 1 to many times. Get over it.
-
Why would you put yourself at a disadvantage for *not* using the most powerful weapon?
-
Yeah, damn those lucky few bastards with access to AR's, i mean they are pretty rare right? If you think AR's are so damn overpowered then use one, if they are indeed overpowered crutchs for people with no skill, if everyone uses them it doesn't matter how OP they are. Or are you just clinging to your hand cannon and refusing to use a AR because you know you would get your ass kicked even if you used one, but then wouldn't have a convenient excuse for how much you suck.

Honestly I prefer a decent scout rifle with return to sender over an auto rifle any day problem is I have A.D.D. and some times it affects my threat assessment and reaction speed and aim and the autos ammo supply and fire rate helps compensate for it.

4 Replieswell, for starters, there is only one AR in the game, and that is Auto-Rifles, which is a weapon class, all of which are "rapid fire". Placing that little tid-bit aside, we are left with the argument that the Auto-Rifle is OP. Well, I would tend to agree with that assessment, though not with nearly as much zeal and gusto as it would seem a good group of others have. The AR is an amazing close-mid range weapon, especially the Shingen-C, and particularly the Shingen-C with certain bonuses (like reduction to recoil). However, the Scout rifle is extremely effective for mid-long range, and can drop almost anyone (at least in the beta) with 4 or less rounds (depending on headshots). Every weapon has it's strong points, but in PvP, the AR and Scout reigned supreme, with the other two primary weapons taking a back seat, due to poor performance in PvP (though fun to use in PvE) So, in short, I can see how some could view the AR as OP, but I would argue that the Hand Cannon and the Pulse Rifle were actually UP. That said, ALL this information is based off a beta, where level 8 was the cap. I have no doubt that in higher level versions of these guns, they only get better. Not to mention Bungie could probably easily adjust the stats of weapons if they see the need.

Having used both the scout and auto rifles extensively,id have to say, they are rather well balanced... ARs fall apart at distance, scout dominates and vice-versa... didnt happen to be a fan of pulse rifles though, never been a huge fan of burst fire anyway

Edited by SaferMurderweapon: 8/12/2014 3:33:10 AMIt's not OP. In fact, there are better ARs actually. Also there are some scout rifles on par with the best ARs. Everything else is just underpowered in comparison. Seriously, hand cannons with low reserve ammo? Pulse Rifles with only 18 rounds per mag that do so little damage?

Good thing I don't use ARs I use scout rifles :P
-
"BETA"
-
Pathetic. You made me sad.
-
I used the scout rifle.
-
Got powned?
-
I used the Sahara which was pretty cool. Altogether too much recoil to use efficiently and less damage per round than the Cydonia...... I found myself switching on the fly depending on which Objective I was attacking. As I said before I always lol when FPS players try to talk about skill. It's just another ball of shit that reeks of hypocrisy, self importance, ignorance, and arrogance.
-
The gun is in the game.. you probably just got owned in the crucible too many times so now you're gonna whine. "No! Only use the gun that [i]I want[/i] you to use." Sounds like a child.
-
2 RepliesIt's a weapon in game correct? And it requires skill to press buttons at the correct time correct? Your point is irrelevant ;)
-
So people with "skills" don't use the rapid fire ar?
-
I do think the rifle is a little to accurate and has little to no recoil. That is a problem.

1 ReplyEdited by HBA Consequence: 8/12/2014 1:07:08 AMYour stats are trash and you have an ar equipped. Hypocrisy at its finest. There's your proof.
-
I used an AR with a slowed rate of fire while you were ads and it was godly, accuracy over quantity.

Anyone who bothers to make a post about this is pathetic. Inb4yousayimpatheticforreplying
