And Arby's. When Davion's go to AA meetings it's not for alcohol. They mistakenly think it's a support group for individuals that love autocannons and Arby's as much as they do.

Soo... the AA is not the Autocannon Aficionado club?

There's still Arbys in 3050? I thought Taco Bell was the only fast food chain to survive the fast food wars.

[MnDragon]

No, the two that remain are the Kentacohut, and the McArby's King. They are the two competing restaurants.

fun thing is i am not a davion, and stereotypically i don't love autocannons. i much prefer lasers.

[B E E L Z E B U B]

AC 10 has a good punch feel, but AC 5 sounds the best (especially when shot twice in a millisecond delay). btw the PPC sound effect is annoying and i expected something with a more electronic feel to it.

also, ive searched what DPS means, but i still dont understand. if DPS is 'damage per second' then how is the AC20 DPS less than 20? since it takes less than a second to hit a target with it...

[Koniving]

I like autocannons, but I don't especially like how they are in MWO. Has anyone been reading up on the lore? Most ACs fire in bursts (by burning through entire magazines called cassettes) or chain fed MG-style, fully automatic. Of course, most ACs are rated by damage per burst or by damage per unit of time (in TT it'd be 10 seconds, in MWO's case this unit of time is 4 seconds for AC/20, 2.5 seconds for AC/10, 1.5 seconds for AC/5 and 0.52 seconds for AC/2).

Can you imagine this much dakka for 1 AC/20? That's the Crusher Super Heavy Cannon (a semi-common AC/20). The Atlas's Deathgiver pumps out 15 shots (undefined as to whether cassette[Burst] or chain[MG] based). The Hunchback's got a 5 shot. The Chemjet Gun is a 4 shot. The Hunchback IIC's twin UAC/20s are both 6 shots (with ultra churning out 12 shots per cannon) in an MG-style.

*Salivates about dakka now.*

Time between shots is included. 20 damage upon impact, 4 seconds to fire again. Thus 5 DPS. The vid above on the link "Dakka" demonstrates "5 DPS" in 4 different ways. If the AC/20 took 5 seconds to reload, it would be 4 DPS.

DPS is a rating of how much damage is done divided by how many seconds it takes to do it again.
