Ruger Or Barret?

[GAMEOVER]

I havent bothered to read all the posts in this but why in the hell is such a useless post like this posted in the weapons balance forum? It has nothing to do with weapon balance get it out.. ffs

It totally depends on the player... if you suck, you will use the Ruger

[Wolf_Man]

the ruger is better i think it shoots faster no startup it sounds better reloads faster and not as much bink and the movementacc is lower

ruger = most effective counter to barret

No SCYA, ruger doesnt bink it enough in some cases.

you guys are stupid barret is better

-1 hit kill
-2 if you shoot feet
-ten shots per clip

unless you are an id***, barret has less room for error. both are generaly evenly matched.

the problem with bink is the majority of time when the barret user is being binked by an auto if he moves his cursor directly over the soldier and it turns red it almost guarentees a kill.  With ruger the it shifts from bink to non-bink relativly quickly so hopefully the barret user wont be able to take advantage of the red cursor.  ITs late and I'm tired if you didn't follow that.

barret is good to use in high ground in multi team matches letz say charlie delta and bravo fight downstairs while alpha just picks em off socom is preffered sidearm with barret because it is SLOW knife could be handy sidearm in Close Combat

So the people who suck are the ones that can kill four people with the ruger in the time it takes the barrett to kill one?

Unless you're really good, you're not going to live long enough to use all ten shots.  In the time it takes the barrett to get to the next bullet, a ruger can be fully reloaded two or three times.

I've been told (I've never done it myself) that the ruger can also kill in one hit with a headshot.  Also, the barrett is so powerful that it is often overkill.  Once you shoot an enemy, he dies whether he has 1% or 100% health.  With the ruger, if three enemies at low health come at you, you can kill them in a single clip.  With the barrett, you kill one, then switch to your socom to hopefully kill the other two.

Not all situations are 1 vs 1.  The ruger offers more flexibility than the barrett, and YOU are the foolish one for not realizing that.

Learn the current balance before you start judging the guns.

Barret has enough damage to be a constant 1 hit killer even a bit outside the screen, ruger does about 35-70% depending on hitbox, range and the players' momentum.

No headshot takes a lil more than half hp away or something.

I pick ruger!

I actually pick FN Minimi, both of these weapons suck. I really don't really use these weapons
