Was looking at the new SMG's in the shop and noticed that the damage was the same (for VS anyways) as the Carbines and LMG's. Does this carry over to other empire weapons? If so why does it hit so hard? (Assuming the charts in the shop are relative to the damage output.)
The rating bars are only relative to a specific weapon category; don't try and use those to compare between weapon types.
It's WAY easier to sell weapons for SC when they are OP. They just take your money then nerf them later once the demand has died down a bit. The DPS is better than most of the other guns in the game which frankly is kinda crazy. Since they are best CQB and most fights lean that way to start with it almost makes carbines and such obsolete.
