RoF question

[Shiftfaced]

I have newly discovered this game in the recent weeks and have been on the hunt for content which will help me decide which faction I want to pick. I plan on playing them all at beta but I have a question about rate of fire.

I've read that the N.C. have a slower rate of fire but more accuracy and harder hitting than the T.R. Who have a quicker RoF but worse accuracy. My question is has anyone figured out the exact RoF. I'm talking numbers like 650 shots per min, etc. Also throughout the certification tree, do you believe it will be possible to up the RoF of a specific gun. I was watching an older youtube video and the guy said they made it where you can make guns similar to other factions through the certification trees.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Because everything is in beta it will be difficult to tell however from things that I have seen I;m sure there will be a stats page for each weapon either in game or on one of the mobile/pc apps that tell you this on launch

None of the numbers are nailed down, and even within a given faction, you might have N different assault rifles (for example) each with different trade-offs in terms of their capabilities (range, accuracy, RoF, recoil, ammo capacity, etc, etc, etc). So if you took the slowest/hardest hitting assault rifle for the TR, it might feel a lot like the NC base-line weapon (maybe even exactly the same).

I'd be shocked if you couldn't, but again, numbers aren't nailed down.

After doing some counting in my head and some basic math I came up with some light assault numbers. Tr was roughly 700 to 800. Vs was roughly 650 to 700. And nc was sub 600. Like I said this was from watching e3 streams and counting off seconds in my head so nothing too accurate.
