Sr-25

[Reykam]

Is there anyone who can actually use this thing with an acog? I'm talking about blackbeard rifle and it has mad recoil preatty much useless to even try without an holo

I CAN! I aced with it once too, accurate taps, no sprays

More like you suck with DMR's

DMR's are finicky. If you intend to blast the enemy, go with compensator. If you plan to take a few shots, then muzzle break(burst fire one) and if you plan to be precise, use the flash hider. Always go for the verticle grip, ADS time can go ^^^^ itself, its all about that recoil control. I might have gotten the barrel attachments wrong btw, i forget.

Try out the sr-25 of blackbeard and tell me it's not a joke of a weapon. I play a lot of buck no problem but the sr-25 is just ridiculouss no one would ever use it effectively without gettign ♥♥♥♥♥♥ by the random jumping around of the shots

All weapons of this game, only need practice to "learn" the possible recoil patterns, of each weapon.
For example back to black ice it took me, 2-3 hs on thunt, during two weeks to learn buck C8 possible recoil patterns.

The fact is that it's not just a pattern is completely random with a rifle that need 2 accurate shots in a row to kill anything but it just jump up 20 meters between the first and the second shot, the third is even worse so you are basically spraying every time you try to kill someone. It's preatty accurate without the shield but when you equip it the recoil just become ridiculouss. I can still do well with holo but it's a joke that i cant even equip an acog because the weapon is completely useless with it.

The SR-25 is a "first shot" weapon. As in, the first shot will make or break each engagement. If you're consistent and accurate it's pretty good, I've seen some players who made excellent use of it.

I still prefer the SCAR on BB though, imo it's a better synergy with the shield because of its superior close- and mid-range handling. Most of the time you're holding an angle from cover or peeking through a murderhole, which doesn't generally make a sniper type kit desirable.

I know but the assault rifle is like the worst weapon in the game with ♥♥♥♥♥♥ damage and rate of fire

Yeah neither weapon he gets is all that great overall. His ability, even post nerf, is still pretty good however, and that seems to be Ubi's usual balancing tactic--good ability, less good weaponry, and vice versa.

There are of course exceptions to that balancing style which still remain despite all the updates--I think everybody knows by now who those "usual suspects" operators are. But Blackbeard can, if played well, pull off kills due to the shield where any other operator would have died instead. Ultimately it's that ability to effect a 'reversal of fortunes' for the attackers that keeps him relevant in skilled hands.

I'm not a BB main and I'd personally like to see his weapons get a slight bit of love, but I also recognize that any significant buffs could potentially land him back in the OP category in which he spent a good amount of time after his initial release.
