Range Penalty
After a bit more testing with other classes and weapons, I'm not seeing any sort of range penalty. Nothing has ever popped up in the Shot Info box nor have I had to move closer/farther to shoot enemies. I'm wondering if the range penalty was removed just before release and not corrected. Can anyone verify otherwise?--DracoGriffin 17:32, 29 November 2013 (EST)
- I also wonder how these work in regards to Snipers, since Snipers take a CLOSE range penalty, not a LONG range penalty. Arrow Quivershaft 17:22, 15 December 2013 (EST)
- Already tested all conventional weapons and classes. As above, I could not verify any sort of range penalty. Nothing ever came up in Info Pane to reduce aim nor did I notice any form of soldiers having their weapon range hampered (this includes Snipers and close range penalty). I was merely asking above if anyone else noticed the same results. I believe range penalty was removed before release but someone forgot to remove the flavor text on the item; similar to how Mind Shield affects defense AND offense Will and how Combat Stims doesn't state only two uses.--DracoGriffin 18:54, 15 December 2013 (EST)
