Re: REMOVE THE CHARGE RIFLE

Even AFTER the nerf, I think it should be removed. Not because its OP per se anymore; the nerf + the loss in potential DPS in close-to-mid range (where I would say most kills happens) makes it actually quite bad to pick over another secondary weapon.

So the reason why I think it should be removed is because it makes the game worse when it comes to the 3rd partying element. I think 3rd partying is a part of the game, but with the Charge rifle, even a noob can now just sit at 300 m and, without any skills, and randomly mess up a 3v3 fight between two other squads, randomly slowing people from the hits etc. With all other snipers, you at least had to move a little closer and have some skills to do this. 


I know I can sound little bit contradictory when Im saying "its not OP" and also saying it should be removed. But I guess that I just dont like what it brings to the game, i.e. that you, with low skills, can affect a fight between two other squads so easily.

    When I hear a charge rifle I sometimes think of The War of the Worlds and half expect to see a giant tripod emerge from behind a hill.

    Maybe that’s why they have it: so newbies can get some kills too. It’s like the Smart Pistol in Titanfall: that was there for players who were just learning to get a couple kills and have fun too. 

    that said, I wouldn’t be sad if it became a care package drop only. When I see one I pick it up - just to keep someone else from using it on me.
