In this video, the creator reviews the FPS weapon buffs introduced in Star Citizen’s 4.3.2 PTU patch, highlighting several significant improvements across multiple guns. The F55 LMG received a notable reduction in maximum spread from 13.5 to 6.5, making it more accurate, especially when aiming down sights. The weapon also fires faster and feels much more reliable in both PvE and PvP scenarios, making it a viable choice for players. The presenter demonstrates its improved performance by successfully taking down enemies at various ranges. Next up is the Custodian SMG, which saw an 8% increase in alpha damage and a substantial reduction in spread by around 38%. The first bullet spread and per attack spread were also decreased, enhancing overall accuracy and damage per second (DPS). The presenter tests the weapon without a stabilizer and finds it very stable and effective, suggesting it can now be confidently added to the player’s weapon list for combat situations. The Fresnel LMG received a significant 31% boost in alpha damage, making it a powerful choice with high firepower. The presenter showcases its capability by eliminating multiple targets efficiently, noting that at lower firing rates, it can function somewhat like a sniper rifle. This buff makes the Fresnel LMG a formidable weapon in the current meta, enhancing its lethality in combat. Additional weapons such as the C-54 and the Reaper SMG also received buffs. The C-54’s spread was reduced, improving its accuracy, while the Reaper SMG’s beam range was increased by 56%, greatly extending its effective distance. The presenter demonstrates the Reaper SMG’s improved range and fun factor, emphasizing how these changes make the weapons more competitive and enjoyable to use. Lastly, the Ascav sniper rifle was buffed with a 20% increase in alpha damage, significantly boosting its damage per shot and DPS. The presenter switches to a more stable scope to avoid bugs and demonstrates the rifle’s power, including its unique electricity effect that can cause enemies to explode after sustained hits. Overall, the video concludes that all the weapons tested have been buffed, making the FPS combat in Star Citizen more engaging and balanced with these new changes.
