Rifleman: What is the Development team’s vision for Rifleman with the upcoming combat system overhaul?
The vision for the rifleman hasn’t changed. They are still intended to be the long range snipers and that will stay the same.
As long as rifles are limited to 64m this is not possible. Especially when all other weapons have the same range. In this situation there is no such thing as long range.
So they intend us to be something we can not be because of limitations they have but in to keep other factors as they intend. Anyone else find this amusing?

Waste I have a feeling they are gonna make us their "Vision" of a Sniper no matter how we feel.........
I feel a Great Disturbance in the Nerf. As if millions of Riflemen Cried out and were Silenced. Something Terrible is about to happen...............
I have the same fear.

how about replace /shipershot with /Dev Castration shot. this is more advanced than low blow and will have the effect of makeing them more docile and willing to code correctly
I dunno. Docile would make them less obstinant about admitting their mistakes, but I doubt it'd make them code better.
Well we all agree something has to be done with their special organs.........

Fear leads to hate, hate leads to suffering, suffering leads to the nerf-side.

Yes. However I do not have the power of the nerf. So I'm not to worried about going to the nerf-side. I'm more worried about being a nerfee.
It isn't that the Devs don't ask us. It's that they do and then ignore what we say. The DE's didn't want the exploding bots. They told them that long ago in one of their many discussions. So they went ahead and did it anyways.
The Devs and the players frequently live in different worlds. They have different visions of how things should work. The problem is that the players consitute the majority of the population yet have relatively no say in what happens. Communication is very poor between the two groups.
The vision for the rifleman hasn’t changed. They are still intended to be the long range snipers and that will stay the same.

I have been to the nerf side and back without even realizing it. Long long ago in a forum far far away(and now closed) I created a post comparing FWG%'s and post nerf T21's with out my knowledge I unleashed the power of the nerf side. Suddenly and uncontrollably thousands of pistolleers and smugglers were struck down by the powers I had unleashed. Unfortunately I had never intended to unleash these powers, instead I wished to realease the good power of "fixing", but things went horribly wrong. I have since put the nerf-side behind me, but in my wake those who I onced destroyed have been trying to summon the nerf-side against us. We must use the Fixing-side to combat these evil doers!!!!
All joking aside I seriously doubt i caused the nerf as the nerf went to TC less than 48 hours after my post. I have apologized to all the angry to pistolleers to calm them but to no avail..
IMO making the mind hit less decisive would be decreasing buffs and nerfing novice medic or stim b's hard. Medic in general needs a nerf ala CH, so people with just novice can not heall 500 dmg per shot.
Macro,
I remember your posts about that. You didn't cause it. It was already in the works. As slow as the Devs make changes (aren't we 4 months behind on the combat rebalance already?) two days was to quick of a turn around.
Though you did get a lot of the blame.
