Why can't I kill anyone with the 3 Burst and Semi-Automatic

Post » Mon Jun 13, 2011 5:37 pm

The title explains all of it. I see a lot of people using the Kross, Euston, and Carb-9 and decided to try out the Frkn-3k and Rokstedi. After one match i gave up on both of them because 1: the 3 burster didnt kill my enemy when all three bullets hit my target and 2: the intervals between pull of the trigger is horrible. As for the semi-automatic....its a piece of crap that cant kill anything. I have always been a fan of 3 burst and semi-automatic guns but this making me hate it.

Does anyone have any tips? Have you guys got a ton of kills using these weapons? should they tweak the guns to make it a bit stronger.

I have no tips for the three-burst rifle but the Rockstedi is an extremely powerful weapon when you attach rapid fire, I would also suggest using the default iron sights and adding a muzzle break. If the FRN3K had a rapid fire option as well Im sure it would be tons more usefull.

From what I can tell a rapid fire Rockstedi is the perfect weapon for high accuracy gamers, Its always my secondary on Heavy builds.

The FRKN is an awesome AR...at medium to long range. Close range firefights with it will result in only one thing...you waiting for a revive syringe. I use the FRKN from time to, name on defensive battles. At distance, the burst fire does wonders to help your accuracy. It's definitely a sniping AR as opposed to a combat AR.

I have not had a lot of success with the FRKN-3K, it is situational at best. Compared to other ARs that have equal (being generous) or better long to mid range capability it does not seem to be effective for my playstyle. Not saying it is worthless but I have not been able to use it effectively. I would not beat yourself up about it. I hate to say this but chalk it up to the gun on this one.

To maintain full accuracy and minimal spread with the Rokstedi, you have to wait about a second between shots. You'll find that if you don't go spammity-spamming, your shots will be true to their mark, and you can put people down in a few shots. I personally don't bother with the Muzzle Brake, since the gun's recoil already settles faster than its spread, and I use the standard mag to maintain full accuracy. Throw on a COGA/Greeneye, and it pretty much bridges the gap between ARs and LRs.

FRKN is just a terrible gun, and out-classed by the Gerund which can fire 3-shot bursts with the same if not better accuracy, and with a smaller pause between them.

Rapid fire?? As it stands the gun already has so much spread, that the recoil settles before the spread has time to. In that case, making it fire even quicker... seems pretty pointless to me. Unless you were going to use it for hip-fire... but even then, it grows to shotgun-sized after a few shots.
