    I don't think the R&D rifles changed in appearance compared to the original. It's a white high tier phaser rifle with orange holograms instead of blue.

    That really disappoints; speaking only of my personal preference, I have always thought that the federation 'standard' phasers all start to look clunky and obnoxious after the mark 1 variants. I would love to have a Mk12 phaser rifle that looks like the mark 1 that you get in the tutorial. No big glowy holograms, no overly large plastic-y frame. Just something that resembles the phasers we see in the shows and movies. Same goes for the pistols.

    Was hoping the TR116B would have been sleeker and more detailed.

    Ugh. So they kept the holograms? I guess I'll be giving the 'ground weapons' part of R&D a pass from now on then.

    I was hoping it would look more like the version from DS9, I purposefully avoid all the clunky hologram-covered weapons in this game. So disappointing.

    Yep. It looks exactly like the original (which I own), which doesn't look anything like the canon weapon. Disappointing, but not surprising.

    So its still the Phaser Rifle model? .c. well thats nearly a deal breaker. How hard is it to model the actual gun considering how many new ground weapons they popped out recently. Really a lowblow considering how many people want this gun.

    Considering how epicly lack luster their performance is, that is way over priced.
    The only reason they are even that high is because relativity few people are able to actually craft them yet.
    It's not my fault if you feel trolled by my Disco ball... Sorry'boutit.

    What's worse is that not only is the MACO rifle better its considerably easier to get as well and cheaper.

    Yea, I have to agree. One of the reasons I invested in fleet rifles: much sleeker (I was using the MACO rifle but grew tired of cliched sci-fi movie chunkiness).

    So, in the amount of time it takes to reach level 15, collect materials and craft on rifle, you could pretty much equip your entire crew with an entire MACO set each (a set that seems to have a much more useful battle rifle).

    So not only is it the same old hideous hologram covered clunky mess as the old gun, but it's inferior to a MACO rifle? A weapon that most players by this point already have?

    I don't see myself advancing any further in the ground weapons crafting branch. The ugly visual reuse would be enough, but this just seals the deal.

    Phaser Rifle


    Phaser Pistol     ...its what I think of when i think of federation weapons...not a dust buster!


    I think the Sierra era they created was the (Klingon human disease) version for the Federation. They wore baggy pants (atleast they where pulled up!) big leather boots and strange shirts. Only the starting weapons resembled trek though.

    This is depressing. Even if I didnt mind the lazy model re-use.. Its pretty sad that the MACO XII rifle dominates it in virtually every regard.

    Did anyone really expect the TR-116B to look any different from the TR-116A? Now if it was the TR-142B, then obviously it should look different.

    I will give them this.. I like the shell ejecting.. nice tough and probably one of the only pro's the weapon has currently.

    "They should release TR-116 rifle to us. It shouldn't stay a pre-order exclusive and it should be able to be used at max level!"

    "Okay, here you go. One TR-116 rifle, adjusted for balance, and given the Mk XII treatment."

    "Not good enough!"

    Clearly the Iconians nerfed the propellant ;)

    I may have missed something in that video I did (and if I did then I'd love to know what) but 'not good enough' pretty much sums up the 116's performance, especially against shielded targets. Something's off there and it's rendering the rifle significantly inferior to weapons of similar grade.

    (NB: the MACO rifle was used for comparison in that video as being essentially sniper v sniper).

    Yeah, most of this doesn't much confront me, but I hope the weapon's at least viable by the time I grind up to it. Else it'll just sit sadly on my mantelpiece.

    I feel the same way. I was really looking forward to getting it. But seeing how it performs at the moment I'm not that excited anmore. In fact the only high end crafting item that still interest me are the Particle Generator Science consoles.

    i dont know what i saw yesterday in-game. It was a Tr-116 and i assume it was the old one (does someone really already have the TR-116B? Saw the Arc Beams from R&D on the Exchange How can you reach Level 15 so fast?) But it looked weak compared to my Elite Fleet Sniper Rifle. And also not very nice Design. Too many Holograms and all that

    And its quite an accomplishment to make a weaker rifle then the Maco one, which has several handicaps since its a sniper.
