Beam Array now available

[»D1st0rt]

The Beam Array is now publicly available under the ?buy guns menu, now that it is balanced enough for general use. If I find that further adjustments need to be made, I'll do so. Enjoy!

BEAM ARRAY BEAM ARRAY BEAM ARRAY!

[Bankotsu]

awsome i will gladly use the beam array and it will get those !@#$%^&* noobs off of the !@#$%^&*ing shredders

[Dr Brain]

Awesome

[Deathboy-evil]

I vote get rid of it, or tweak it so its not OVERPOWERED in basing.

[Stoked_07]

now my beam array i had b4 u released it is useless lol :\ ya i do think it needs a bit of tweaking

[Bankotsu]

i think it is fine exept for the power for how little nrgy it takes u should make the damage a tad less

[Deathboy-evil]

Bankotsu, it's cheap, overpowered and needs to be tweaked a lot.

[BlueWyvern]

This is my opinion but I'm an oddity.

Shredders are actually pretty weak, most people who use them just spam all their energy away and then they're dead with a few shots.

I hate the flechette alot more as it takes less energy then a pulse to fire, so in an open space dog fight a pulse laser user is at a slight disadvantage, add in a multifire and you've got an enemy who can just stray you to death.

I don't think there are really any overpowered weapons, it's very hard to achieve perfect balance so some might have a slighter advantage as others but factor in the skill of the user and that will affect how much trouble you'll have with them. I.E. A noob with a shredder will just get himself killed.

 

The beam array is one of those slightly advantaged weapons but not by much, just overwhelm them with offense and you'll be fine... But what do I know I'm a newb

If you have excellent aim I recommend using a pulse over a beam, you'll get more bang for your buck. A beam vs a pulse where both sides trade equal hits will often result in the Beam Array losing.

[Stoked_07]

all the guns are good if you know how to use them..

[Deathboy-evil]

True, but there are certain guys that end up being very cheap and lame.

[Bankotsu]
