PPC's.....

Seriously...I've always thought a PPC should sound like a large lightning strike up close....and it should be slightly different each time because "particles" vary when hitting the air...air currents vary and can cause a slightly different sound...air pressure can make it sound different...
Am I being obsessed or is this a good concept?

Then again, I'm one of those guys who disagrees that PPCs should be basically an energy-based gauss rifle, as it makes the weapons too similar and makes sniping too easy.

You could just walk out of the way before they arrived. But damn did they hurt if they hit

The Particle Projector Cannon (or PPC) is a unique energy weapon. PPCs fire a concentrated stream of protons or ions at a target, causing damage through both thermal and kinetic energy.[
I think it's safe to say that the method of "firing" the protons or ions could very well be some form of manipulation through the use of electro-magnetic power because the definition goes on to discuss the "electrical" damage effects to mech systems. Nevertheless....I still say accellerated particles are going to make a thunderclap.

And, that said, if you know even just basics of particle physics, that still doesn't make any more sense
Even if they managed to condense all of CERN into a weapon the size of a Volkwagon, all a proton stream would do is bore a tiny hole through a mech. Not shoot a giant blue exploding pulse of energy
