CHARGE RIFLE
The new CHARGE RIFLE weapon is too strong, should be from the drop like Mastiff or kraber, everyone is running with this rifle now.

@DoYaSeeMeThis made me laugh hard, sorry but I dont think the main thing to take out of this story was the Pathfinder, but rather how are you able to miss shots with CR, even close range ADS or hip is easy as hell to land - compare that to Longbow mate.
@NitromethaneAP I hit 3 out of 4. Path knew he had no chance to run away in the open field and used his abilities and the available features in the area excellently. With a bare Longbow, I would've killed him for sure, so what I'm trying to say is that Charge Rifle is not as OP as people think and, therefore, the upcoming nerf should be small.
@DoYaSeeMeare you playing on PC? I have downed people in close ranged with CR while they used PeaceKeeper, so imo it is as OP as people say (if people have a good aim) - and I dont have a god like aim, I´m a casual player. Long range its broken beyond anything, you know when you can down 3 squads with purple armor from half across the map with 0 risk. Imo nerf CR to the ground, bring back hopup on Longbow.
Or if you dont belive me, try listening to the best players in the world and what they think. Most of them refuse to even pick it up due to how broken it is (granted that people have a decent aim).
There's really no question that CR is atrociously bad in CQC. CQC is all about higher dps. CR has one of the lowest of all weapons.
I've killed ppl with bare p2020 or mozambique vs R99 or PK countless times too. That still doesn't mean I would ever choose those weapons XD. Same goes for CR. It's a weapon for 200+ meters. You really need to be desperate to use it in CQC.
@Biochemikas Its far better than Longbow in CR, its also far better in long range. Since it is far easier to land shots with a hitscan than projectile. You can even swap to CR in close range to last hit the enemy easy - compare that to doing the same with Longbow.
So why did they remove Longbow from the meta just to replace it with an braindead weapon that exceels it in every aspect?
Potential nerfs I see is make it into a carepackage weapon, since its on the same level as Mastiff (but in long range). Bring back SP hopup for longbow.
@NitromethaneAPPC. I used PK and Longbow a lot (A&D was my favorite mode so far) and I have decent aim. CR is among the worst weapons for CQC.
Also, I've heard a few opinions from certain streamers, I think Shroud doesn't consider it that op either. Anyway, I'm talking with the average player in mind, that doesn't have a strong professional bias as the best of the best.
