Personally I think that the NTEC-7c 'New Glory' stole all the expertise of what the Scoped NTEC-5 wanted to be. Whilst it is fair that such a dramatic change would indeed make it a 'Legendary' status, along with having a much more modular model. I do think that the NTEC-7c stole the spotlight of what could have been. As for the Scoped NTEC-5, I think the zoom could be increased alongside its effective range (+- 15m), but this would have to come with a big trade-off. Standing still for this however, is unacceptable.

The Scoped NTEC-5. Nobody ever uses it, nobody ever needs to. As someone who performs extensive experimentations on a variety, if not all, weapons, I'd say that the ARMAS Scoped NTEC-5 is incredibly underpowered. It's main gimmick is that the weapon, over it's normal NTEC-5 counterpart, gains more zoom (in terms of FOV) when you aim down sights. This is a neat something, but it has minimal impact on performance as the accuracy you gain with it is almost unnoticable. Let alone if you started firing a second bullet. What does help the weapon over its normal counterpart is that it has a SLIGHTLY less severe damage drop-off when hitting targets beyond the maximum damage range. At the very best difference at 65m it takes 8 shots to kill opposed to the non-scoped NTEC-5's 10 shots. Though as for its downside, you'll get a massive penalty to your accuracy if you are moving and aiming, which is not a problem for the normal NTEC-5. In fact, it is recommended to use Mobility Sling on the NTEC-5 so you can become more nimbler with it as you are aiming. The Scoped NTEC-5 however, gets absolutely crippled when you try to move and aim. Standing still just to get a very tiny benefit of a better zoom mid-combat is suicide. The increased zoom does not help the gun in a realistic fight at the range it's meant to be in and it makes close quarter combat slightly less effective as well (though this was already a weakpoint of the NTEC-5 series). Truth be told that if both user and enemy combatant are not in their optimal weaponrange and require more shots than usual, the smaller damage reduction beyond maximum range COULD be of help. but fighting someone outside of your comfortzone is not a smart thing to do, nor is it a good gameplan (and yes, I've tested this). Other weapons emphasize on adaptibility much much better. TL:DR, the Scoped NTEC-5 wants to be more accurate and longer ranged but fails to make an impact on both ends. The downside of crippling your gun when moving is a good way to commit suicide. Nobody uses it nor do they want to. So I would like to ask here on the forum what YOU would want to see for the weapon in terms of a balancing touch-up towards the current day of APB:R. I'm not asking for it to be overpowered nor to replace the NTEC-5, but as of now it is a downgrade in almost all circumstances. Give it some specialisation that would make a player want to use this (compared to...) (and of course the emphasis should lie on the difference of it being 'scoped' in contrast of the 'nonscoped' variants.)

Oh don't worry. I have very low expectations and that is even IF they tried to cook up something.

Anywho, to be on-topic. I would LOVE to have a 'Set Weapon Modification' system where you can Save and Load weapons with personally preset mods when you swtich to them. Constantly re-applying reflexes, hunting sights and whatnot gets timeconsuming and sometimes fails mission-critical moments. At this point I think I've bought like over 8 Hunting Sight 3's and also a lot more duplicates from other mods, just so that the switches to my personal favourites and flexible weaponry is quick. (though I'd still like this feature one day :P)

Oof, rageposting multiplethreads?

So what can I say except you're welcome? ^,^

Oh my apoligies, hold on. I'll get a list of every single secondary so I can list them all for you under the label of that these weapons are not really a problem. Bar maybe the Joker-RFP then, and if you're so sure about the Nano I'll put it in the list of "These are okay secondaries" along with the rest.

My guy, no one is gonna complain about a dang Mountie or PDW or N-FA. Not about FBW, not about Showstopper. People are already saying the FR0G would be a fair thing to go up against... I COULD however see people complain about the Joker-RFP or the OCA-Nano if they really went looking for something to complain on but c'mon man. We ain't petty. But .45 crosses a clear line.

I hardly find myself getting tilted against someone who would use FR0G weaponry. AND I would feel like I had a big chance in beating them. Hell, if I find myself losing to that with an SMG I'll try to kill them from a longer range to make sure they need +1 extra shot.

Point and case. And I'm gonna send some reports of spam as well

A'ight. I'm gonna be the better man and just straight up not respond to some specific invididuals here who are CLEARLY ragebaiting and trolling. Let's make APB:R enjoyable once more. Bit by bit. An endless fight, but I am willing to fight for it.

We? Who the fuck is we? WE are complaining about a weapon and I am starting to think that it is actually the majority of the people here. So you can crown yourself king with your opinion all you want and call people bad or whatever, but don't call over 50% of the pop people with 'false claims' Don't look up (the movie)- kind of pleb you are.

You have all these people complaining about a singular gun: The Colby .45 AP People call it Overpowered. They're not comparing its power to other secondaries as in 'this is equal'. SURELY something has to be going on. Or do you people think that every single one of us who are complaining are some sort of cult? Goddangit people if many members of the forums take a claim to something, in thise case: Colby .45AP is too strong, then SURELY there is a reason for it. But y'all just mad and angry 'cause that would neglect my investments of either Jokertickets or G1C'. Get real. There is a problem. We ain't typing for fun.

That's like saying that the Strife is OP becaues it could technicly 2-shot. Let alone the N-FAS wiith its TTK of all things. Yeah he missed, of course he lost. But when people don't. There ain't much chance. (And trust me, those Fight Club people who play every day rarely miss) (also as a sidenote dang what quality setting is that xD it looks so yikes)

Dude stop making a fool out of yourself man. Play the game
