AC42 nerfed into uselessness?

Havent been omln Bf for a while, returning player. My favourite AR seems to have been nerfed into absolute invalidness. Im hitting people at 80-100m with 5 bursts stationary and taking them to maybe 30% health? What on earth have you done to it? So you get massacred at short to medium range by full autos, and now cant kill anyone at distance unless they have the reaction speeds of a vegetated teaspoon. Abhorrent decision.

    You know the Devs, if it's any good eventually they nerf it.

  • They messed the ARs up with the spread and other stuff in my opinion. When I can hit longer distances with an SMG or LMG and don't need to reset I get depressed. I love using ARs but man sometimes why would I when the SMGs seem to work like I would want ARs.

    The AC42 used to be my favourite gun, it also was my first Tier 1. But the update of the spread butchered it. A gun that only has a burst mode does not need a spread nerf!


    As GrizzGolf​ said we've come to a point where SMGs outperform ARs at range, which really is counter intuitive. I'm still surprised sometimes at the distances I kill or get killed by SMGs.

    Yea, I put the assault rifle away, this pp29 out-shots in most scenarios.
