Assault rifle class

(1/5) > >>

Lordus:
 After wipe drugs and weapons changes, i am quite satisfied with current pvp builds. But i miss one weapon class. Assault rifle, that would have a good range and damage at single shot and relatively good range and damage per burst.

 Because best detector of usefullnes weapons are players, i can tell you that current assault rifle and FNFAL are too weak for that purpose.

 So, why not to rework FN FAL into weapon, that could have cca 45 hex range on single shot and 35 hex per burst. Damage per single shot could be little lower than sniper rifle (4/5 of sniper rifle dmg) and burst (4/5 of lsw). Those value could be discussed, but idea is to make a pvp usefull and competitive assault rifle, that dont have any attributes bigger than best accesible tier weapon in burst/single shot weapon class, but the main strenght would be its versatility.

I'm afraid I must disagree, I use an Assault rifle any chance I get, its good as it is.

I'm not too sure of FN fal though, its a compititent weapon though in casual pvp.

Lordus:
Current team PvP consist of some stages. I will focus on parts where teams engage each other.

1) each teams, consist of mix of long range and short range builds. If they have contact with enemy, the first stage is to set imaginary line that determines fire field.

 Fire field is space between those 2 groups of players. The lenght and width is determined by number and max range of long range chars in those teams (sniper, laser sniper). If there are many players with snipers (and teams often have many snipers), everyone who get at snipers range (=who cross lines of fire field and goes deeper), is dead very soon (even laser snipers). So usability of as. rifle as a pseudo sniper is nonsense.

2) At moment, when fire line is set up, it is matter of time who kills enemy team first and which team regrouped first. Short range builds (bursters, plasma, RL) then try to flank enemy. At this moment, any as. rifle is not very competitive with enemy bg bursts and rockets.

 So i suggest, give role to some asault rifle (as. rifle, fnfal, xl,..), that player could use it as a "fake" sniper (but real snipers would have always advantage) and as a "fake" bg burst. Teams then could switch their tactics not before the fight, but even in fight itself.

Michaelh139:
Ah but thats Super Nation Warz pvp, Assault rifle is mid-tier weapon, it doesn't belong in such large level of pvp anyways.  But if you insist, your arguement is somewhat valid.

Lordus:
I think that current as rifle could be still mid tier weapon, but FN could be best tier weapon like sniper r., but with quite different statistic and purpose.
