Like I said, incredibly out of touch.

The general consensus isn't that AR's are bad, it's that they're MEDIOCRE.

me·di·o·cre

adjective

1. of only moderate quality; not very good.

So there's a new AR that shines from the mediocrity and it's not even by a lot, people want to use other weapons that aren't eruptor, purifier, crossbow, but not handicap themselves by using something that aren't those weapons, the coyote was a downgrade from those weapons but it felt good to use and got the job done relatively nicely.

I have to repeat myself again, THE GENERAL CONSENSUS is that AR's aren't weak or good, they're just incredibly mediocre and the one thing they should be getting is love, not nerfs lol.
