Why is the Rifle a Attack weapon and SMG a Defensive weapon?

[Putin]

The Smg is the weapon that needs movement accuracy boost cause its constructed to be a rush gun not a HMG with plastic bullets that can only be shoot at crouch.

Why would any weapon get MORE accurate when moving? That makes zero sense from both a logistical and gameplay standpoint.

Wait you kidding me !?
I Didn't say it will be more accurate then at Crouch , I said a movement boost not more accurate at movement then Crouch.

Putin, do you see the word "crouch" anywhere in his post?

Besides, you specifically said:

Gorman all weapons are made to kill not to break blocks to make other people get kills , And everyone who thing that they have specifications like kill / break are not clean in their head. Cause making the rifle the only weapon for killing is a totally idiotic .
And a FIX "The Semi is a Anti-Soldier / Anti-Material gun " That shows that all weapons are getting equal at kill/break.

Not true, it's a team game.

Semi is unrivaled at killing, thus it takes that job. SMG is unrivaled at griefing, thus it takes that job. It ain't rocket science, if you work together you can achieve more than the sum of your team members.

Hes saying the movement speed boost wont make it higher than crouching accuracy. Hes saying that the boost will make it higher than it currently is, but not higher than crouching.

Someone correct me if im wrong, but isnt accuracy static? As in, crouching accuracy is the same as moving accuracy?

Afaik, only recoil changes when crouching, standing, and moving.

Still, why would the accuracy be lower while running than when standing still?

The rifle has a longer range, thats why, but the SMG can be used as an attack weapon and the rifle can be used for defense. Actually, most people use the SMG for attack, because when you're infiltrating enemy territory you'll want to be able to not have to worry about aim. The rifle is good for defense because then you can be in a sniping spot and not have to worry about him seeing you unless you miss or he somehow sees you. Both weapons can be used for both purposes though. :)

You must be horrible with the SMG if you can't hit people. :P I use the SMG most of the time because its the most balanced weapon. It can be used at middle range, short range, and even long range if you have good aim and fire in short accurate bursts.

I played Minit US tonight and i was first(used rifle) but if i get that plastic bullets / nuclear recoil HMG I mean SMG. I simply dont make kills , its to crappy. It needs a fix and that a great.
So or rename it to HMG or make it a SMG ( meaning if you walk you are accurate like Stand now)
