What is the Scoped Assault Rifle
It is fairly self-explanatory, its an assault rifle, with a scope! It has many other differences but the main thing to remember is it has a scope.

Is it Good
Yes, it is good, its got a nice firing rate, and a scope, it also allows one to run decently fast. It is outclassed dramatically by many other weapons, notable things like the Battle Ram or Rainbows End, but they outclass most things. Its main flaw is probably the mentality of other players when you shoot them with this thing they tend to run away... This wiki's page on the gun puts it best. "'once fired from afar, your opponent will seek cover, making this weapon less effective in serving its purpose.'" It's when they don't run off that the gun is most deadly.

How to use
It's a good idea to treat this like the regular Assault Rifle, strafe a lot and keep your distance, the scope is useful but I find that it is easier to just not bother using it.

Verdict
I like this weapon, I do, I don't use it much as its so outclassed by other weapons but as a nice little fun gun, it is really nice. If you're a newbie it's a good buy, but if you've been playing a while and have other, later weapons it is less worth it.
