Re: SVK? Why nerf it?...

@BizzyVapingThe fire rate is slower, the recoil pattern is now up and left, its recoil recovery is about twice as long.

People should be complaining because the game has now been pushed into sniper rifles and very close combat (making it feel like fortnite or Apex legends) and while pretty much every other gun has recieved a buff the SVK got nerfed - this is typical developer knee J E R K reactions. The mid-long range is dominated by Sniper rifles completely as this game has no flinch / suppression mechanics, so you can take longer to aim shots.

It isn't about timing the second shot, unless you're playing AI that isn't a relevant argument. It actually does have bullet drop, and no, it isn't even close to the DXR in longer ranges.

@BizzyVaping Actually it is a huge difference. I noticed it in very first second when I shot it after update. It's useless now, but if you like snipers then it is decent

@aksur83 Im not into snipers at all.

I just used it on Rush to get the 30 kills for the weekly challenge. It was still a beast at both long and medium range. With the highpower ammo and K8 Holo or ironsights its even fairly decent at closerange

I only used the 4x scope for long range and either the K8 Holo or ironsight for close and medium range. Might be different with longer range scopes, I don't know.
