Who uses rifles?

[TheInferno]

Yeah, I think I was just misremembering the name. My bad.

Good info though, I'll have to remember that.

[Meriv]

OMG pls do a sticky thread with all the videos comon we got all this info from Febbruary? and we are here killing ourself doing retro research on E3 videos?..................
Until now good information
Carabine effective range 10m , if you are engie you ahve to drop turret if you want long range efficiency(dont ask me what will do the LA)
Ok and for the night there is the interessant implant that blocks/reduce your termal shape soo you are less spoteable.

(gonna edit futher for more information)

[TheInferno]

We had a thread like that but I think it got moved to the new player forum.

I think it's... yeah, here it is.

Are you sure that the information is correct?
Some errors
See the video at 8:15 it clearly says that the ENG doesnt have the rifle
The infiltrator get -Scout rifle- and shutguns minute 27
And the LA doesnt use the rifle.

Battle Rifles (Shottus Primus) are the evolutionary ancestor to assault rifles (Swissus Cheesus) and sniper rifles (Headius Blownoffixus).

If not wrong always in the weapon interview (the most important video until now) they are working for making the ENG able to customize their turret, idk flame turret, flak turret etc...etc....

[Trafalgar]

I expect to complain that it has to be manned. < /Former TF2 Player>

I posted an idea suggestion for engineers to be able to place and build base grade turrets at a cost of resources similar to a vehicle

I wonder if we could eventually get this for more serious needs like Anti Air. But we do need an AA light turret variant like the AI and AV types we got now. Just makes sense.

What about the PDW and SMG (Pewpewpewis Inferior)?

[JesNC]

Well I hope they'll get around to adding the rifle for engineers in beta.

I've always played with the Gauss Rifle, don't want to trade it for a carbine ever. Especially since it would be the only true long range weapon choice and Engys don't have any mobility to speak of...

Well those are pretty much the same thing except a PDW tends to use more of a min-rifle round than a pistol round.

Except when it's both like the 5.7x28mm

It sounds like they have rifles.
