Fragger and the BR

(cFn) #1

Am I the only one who thinks its underrated? Specifically the B52 Hurricane Rifleman?

It is underrated. But it’s mainly because when fragger comes into people’s minds, they think blazing guns and frags. Burst rifles aren’t exactly the “guns blazing” kind of weapons.

They definitely pack a punch, especially over range. But magazine size is rather low and it’s harder to assault with. Not saying you can’t and they definitely aren’t bad, but you need quite a bit of practice and skill. Most people would rather take the m4.

Is it? I was playing Stoker with the Stark and I was actually doing pretty good…and I’m no master marksman…

When I’m in the middle of a team and leading a charge into their defense, the last thing I want is a burst fire rifle. It’s an amazing gun, but with how Fragger plays - as the first guy in, mowing people down and wounding the rest - it just doesn’t seem to compliment him. I’d always take the M4 or K-121 over it.

True thing but that card is just amazing if you know how to headshot, you just need more experience and practice to master the br-16 (Btw. I’m not that good with it). But the flying pig man I’m in love with that perk.

They say it’s…Thunderrated? I think that fits now concsidering the update situation right now.

I will show myself out now -->

In my opinion BR is a great weapon, but not for Fragger . It’s pretty good to use with Kira or Arty who have ammo packs or ammo stations.

I too like the BR16 now and consider it extremely powerful. But not when Fragger has access to the K121. You can burst people down just as fast with the K121 and you have fewer ammo/reload issues when clearing an area is my reasoning.
