Requirements to construct XL-70 are really too high. 7 alloys, high cool down and here you have the rifle that is mostly overpriced.

AK-112 expanded has larger magazine (40 rounds), so you can burst many times. (Normal version has 24 rounds in a mag)

FN-Fal has short range and uses R-A-R-E ammunition. 20 rounds and it's mostly not economical to use that weapon (because of ammo).

XL-70 has... 20 rounds in a mag. Burst eats 8. Two bursts and reload. Have anyone seen a person using that weapon? Huh? It should be high class assault rifle. So there are 3 ways to change present situation:

1. Lower requirements to construction - still only odd guys will try to use that.
2. Make that weapon more accurate. Maybe change weap. damage mod. (I don't know mechanic) or add perk/s.
3. Enlarge magazine or add expanded version. Eventually make bursts of 10 or 12 rounds.

i would actually suggest that the xl7 ought to have at least 32 bullets in a mag and be upgradeable to 60 bullets in a mag, after all 5mm ammo is normally tiny...

roll eyes weak , rare ammo and expensive like f-k

[Solar]

Yes, AR as a whole need a boost and the XL70 needs one in particular. These things must wait until Atom is fully back with us, but will be sorted then.

30 in mag and 10/15 burst? :] 30 is standard ammo cap. for most of guns.

If you want reality... minigun would not and will not exist as personal weapon...

[Kilgore]

increase its range to at least 45 (personally I vote for 50, it's an expensive rifle)

[Sayak]

Assault rifles are just too weak.. that's true right now P90>XL70E3

[gordulan]

doesnt the xl70 still have the advantage of range?

[Frozen Mind]

XL70 has 5 hexes better range than P90.

[gordulan]

damn, not much...

[Karpov]

and the p90 does more damage, at least in my experience.
 
I found the real weapon, it says it uses 5.56mm bullets. What if you change the ammo from 5mm to .233, I think it could be a lot better, like a sniper rifle, less powerful but with burst option.

Burst with .223? Omg, this gun must be really really really big.

[Frozen Mind]

I think 5mm (as 5.56mm nowadays in real) is an assault rifle standard so there is no reason to change that. Keep it that way... it's Fallout.

[Quentin Lang]

Well, right now the XL70 is quite great example of PLASTICOOL BULLSHIT - worthless right now. Should be balanced abit.

I think 5mm (as 5.56mm nowadays in real)

Actually 5mm aint 5.56mm. 5.56mm(x45mm if im right) is .223 caliber and the minigun/assault rifle 5mm is fictional ammo.
