Thread: Bring back 2.5 multiplyer
It is too easy to level in rifleman now, that is why there are so many now. I think the Devs should go back to the way it was:
Bring back the 2.5 multiplier.
Bring back warping mobs.
Bring back prone sliding.
Fix concealshot so that every mob except the one you are shooting at aggros you.
Fix cover so that once you take cover and then get up, you can't run for like 30 min.
Break spices again so they don't work.
Break foods again so they don't work either.
Musician and Dancer buffs should be non-existant.
This would stop all the FOTM people and slim our ranks back down to what it used to be.
Being a rifleman used to be so much fun, now it's just another profession.

until your rate of fire or your incredible accuracy is adjusted to where it is supposed to be. (i.e. rate of fire slower than a pistoler which it is NOT currently) then you will be overpwoered.
Face it you need a speed nerf and be forced to play the game like the rest of us, instead of just using your headshot macro

Man that had to be the lamest post ever posted. Jesus... "bring back the bugs so people will go be another profession". LAME... People will be riflemen if they want to play the class. Some like the fact that the damage is off the charts and don't mind sacrificing the speed for damage however others don't like it as they want fast attacks to spam specials. So the devs fix it and make the class more attractive which in turn attracts other to try it. Are you upset cuz your not so unique. Well heres a little info for ya buddy, rifleman is just another class and you are just another player. You wanna try something original...give squad leader a try. They are so bugged, you would definately be one in a million.
I tell ya. Other peoples children upset me 
rifles main advantage seems to be mind damage, distance, and area attacks
i dont think 2.5 will effect rifleman that much
depends on how you use it

I swear, some people have no sense of sarcasam.
I totally agree with Zeritul on his point.
From what I interpret, he's saying we're finally fixed and now everyone (us rifleman)are bitching to get it changed back because people feel that we're a flavor-of-the-month.
I quit playing the game in November because I was so sick of us Riflemen being so crappy. We had like a bazillion-page long thread on the General Board that the Devs posted on like twice. Our main complaint:
Get rid of the 2.5x Melee Damage Modifier!
Now our main complaint seems to be:
Put back the 2.5x Melee Damage Modifier!
I for one actually enjoy the game now as a rifleman without the 2.5x modifier. If it was re-instated, I'd probably quit the game again, since I mostly PVE and Roleplay, and getting my butt kicked by Meatlump Buffoons outside of Coronet because they hit me for 500 damage because of a 2.5x modifier is just not fun for me.

2.5x accuracy makes a hell of a lot more sense than 2.5x damage.
Dang straight!
The way things are now I think we are 2.5x harder to hit with a rifle equiped.... MEH! And without either penalty we are the brunt of a lot of N**f posts.. hehe!
Thanks FLATLINEDEATH, that's exactly what my point was.
As for Ochid being upset with other people's children, if a child can write something that an adult doesn't understand as sarcasm, well maybe you should be upset with yourself not the child.(I'm not a child btw)
Rifleman is great the way it is, sure we have a few issues but nothing like we used to. I suggest everyone enjoy it and stop worrying about us getting nerfed. As the mechanics of the game change (which they seem to do alot) people move to different professions. Everything will be OK when they finish beta-testing the game. Oh wait, that's over isn't it, damn I keep forgetting.
