Checking out Star Citizen 3.22 FPS Combat Changes

This video discusses the changes made to FPS weapons in Star Citizen version 3.22, including the LH86 pistol becoming a burst pistol and the FS9 being transformed into more of an assault rifle. The speaker tests out these weapons in a scenario called the Siege of Orgon and provides insights into their effectiveness, recoil, and ammunition requirements.

In this video, the speaker discusses some of the changes that have been made to the FPS weapons in Star Citizen version 3.22. They mention that the LH86 pistol is now a burst pistol, while the FS9 has been transformed from a killing machine to more of an assault rifle. The R97 shotgun from Gemini has also seen some changes. The speaker then proceeds to test out these weapons in the Siege of Orgon, a scenario being tested in the PTU.

The speaker starts with the FS9 equipped with a size one scope and a compensator, noting that it performs well for shooting enemies at longer ranges. They observe that armor seems to make a difference as they are now more resistant to damage. They also mention that they can better identify where enemy fire is coming from, allowing them to regroup and heal before continuing the fight. In summary, the FS9 is effective, but fires more slowly now and requires more accuracy to conserve ammo.

The LH86, on the other hand, is described as a pistol suitable for close quarter combat to quickly eliminate multiple enemies. It fires a lot of bullets at once and can even take down enemies with heavy armor. The speaker advises against aiming with the LH86 due to its strong recoil, suggesting that it’s better suited for quick reflex shooting.

Regarding the R97 shotgun, the speaker notes that it hasn’t undergone significant changes except that NPCs who wear armor are now more resistant and require multiple shots to defeat. The magazine capacity has been reduced to 18 bullets, so it can run out quickly. The speaker comments on the need to carry enough ammo, particularly for the FS9 which takes up a lot of space.

In conclusion, the speaker summarizes the changes made to the FPS weapons in Star Citizen 3.22, emphasizing the effectiveness and differences of each weapon.
