When a burst sidearm is better than a primary burst weapon, it should ring a bell that something's wrong.

But it's worse than both the Obir and the OSCAR. 

It's only better than the Yukon really.

Sharpen drop off to minimum damage, lower minimum damage, reduce damage slightly, widen hipfire.

 

Obviously put all the rfp in line for range, maybe meet in the middle and put it to 35, giving the fang 42 meters effective range.

 

Fixed(?)

I like talon. Why would one call it garbage? Cuz it doesn't have ir3? RFP is itill good without it.

Because I can 6 shot burst people with 2 of the 3 shots landing, equating to 14 shots at 40m and the Fang just instakills at anyrange below 90m9

Weapon balancing will be a fuzzy bunny in the future.

 

They can't just change weapon mods however they want without pissing off people, and if they nerf shit to the ground it would be more pissing people off.

 

 

so good luck

since no one seems to have answered :


Standard RFP has 40m drop off range

RFP Fang has 47m drop off because of IR3

RFP Talon has 30m drop off range for some reason (mod description says nothing of this)

Its a good gun no doubt, we just wonder why the Talon has a damage dropoff starting at 30m, whereas the standard RFP is 40m and the Fang is 47m.

yeah but then well have what happened to the Tin Soldier; The Trouble maker was so fucking broken they nerfed all of the gun series and made everything else complete dog shit

I only use that thing when Im messing around and try to high noon people lol

Dont think Ive ever seen someone else use it. Same with Odin

Just tried Tin soldier yesterday. It's so good. Better than oca due to high accuracy and being able to shoot from the corner and jumpshot with it

Seriously? "Why?"

How about we look up real life counterpart, eh?

Not even saying how making it 3-shot, made it look bad in my eyes...

Eh. Realism isn't really an argument when it comes to APB. (Do I need to state reasons here?)

 

That being said, RFP does need a range nerf at least.

Or accuracy, to make IR3 a bit more punishing? I guess.

 

I for one also liked the IR changes they put in for some time. Anyway.

is the talon more powerful than the others at a closer range like some guns do of equal type?

Same damage, but 10M less base range.

I actually like the names RFP9-Sight and RFP9-SD. It better defines what each weapon is. Sight is for range, SD is for silence, like every other weapon. I hate the names they give weapons. I think only legendary weapons should have custom names, but I'm going off topic here.

TBH the Fang is one of the most damn good looking guns in the game.  Just use the Alternative skin and its ultra sexxy

The RFP range buff is one of the many terrible balance changes LO has made.

 

Same reason csg is bad now

Same reason oca is too good now

Same reason nfas is op now

Same reason obir range sucks now

 

They have no idea what they're doing and screwed the weapon balance up.

Little Orbit hasn't touched the OCA or the Obir.

What are you even talking about?

The fang would have 3 shot killed at this distance. Please stop spamming your video over and over

No way!

 

I meant the non-talon variants.

Talon is like, the balanced RFP, while the other RFPs easily outgun the OBIR.

Why do people say this.

Do we need to make a list of secondaries with a faster ttk than the Obir?

 

The Obir is a ranged weapon, good luck fighing an Obir with your Fang at 60m.

 

Hell even within the Fangs range, if you are using them correctly, both weapons should only leave you exposed for 3 bursts.
