More DMRs please?

[Kipp]

Is there anyone beside me that is still rockin the R63 diligence? I just love the feel and the handling of it but I feel like that weapon class is falling short. The two warbonds we have do not have DMRs but shotguns, assault and laser rifles.

I would love some kind of laser DMR or maybe one that can fire explosive rounds, or any other effects. What are your opinions on that? Most people use shotguns but on bots but I think DMRs have a real value

While yes, more weapons would be great, you can't really make great use of them anyway since 50% of all maps either have spores, fog, storms or dense jungle, reducing your sight to a few meters only... :D

I find myself using the R63 very effectively on my playstyle. I also use spores and fog to my advantage. Also when I lose my advanced weaponry I am able to fend of shield guys and rocket devastators with my trusty old diligence. Just some similar weapon to work towards would be great

In a leaked video there were a few primary weapons shown which should be to your liking. One of them handled pretty much like the Diligence, but had medium penetration, so that was quite nice. But we will see if we actually get that any time soon

Admittedly while the scorcher isn't a DMR per se it does function the same way and it's pretty busted. That being said I love the diligence series and would love to see an explosive variant (read: knock-back bullets like the explosive liberator has but designed for bots instead of bugs.)

I want a democracy infused Garand that pings with an additional explosion sound when you empty the clip

And on top of that a buff to dmr‘s so i don‘t feel like a clown when using my precision rifle which is outclassed by the standard AR you get for free

Slugger.

That is all.

Every weapon needs its role. With shotguns I just can not kill on the distances I am playing with, which are mid to long ranges.

More DMRs when DMRs can one-shot hunters regardless of where they're shot.

I hear you, but I'm the same way. The slugger is more DMR than anything lol, I consistently use it out to 100+m

I looked into that leaked DMRs and their damage is only 80? Aww man I do hope we see better ones in the future, or those stats arent final. I mean yeah the slugger does a lot of damage and it is precise but no 200m scope an pump action. Really not what Im looking for. Dont get me wrong, Im having a blast playing the r63 im not looking for something that is statistically better just for the sake of outperforming it, I just... need something in the same category to work towards :D well, lets see what the future holds
