The Carbine sucks. It's only half-decent at close to medium range, but it absolutely fails at medium-range. Why? Because the shots don't go to the middle of the reticle. They usually end up around the center of it, which causes you to miss headshots. It's a step down from the BR, but it definitely is better than not having an entry-level mid-range weapon as your secondary.
And someone show me proof that it can kill faster than a BR. I dare you. Video evidence please, and perhaps even charts would do.
Not the best proof, but it's proof. The carbine kills faster, if you can aim with it.
That's not even valid proof at all.
Having two players have a shoot-off is a terrible example, because there are way too many variables like reaction time. Maybe the carbine guy shot first?
A true test would have two spawn points per map, so the distance is consistent, then have one person kill an AFK person, and have the kill time recorded with both weapons so we can see which is truly faster.
do this with both weapons, and you may have a viable test.
