Isn't that weight a little high?


No, it's accurate. PGI can't do much about the weight without doing weird stuff to canon builds. I'm thinking it could use a shorter cooldown, though. More like 3.5 to 4 seconds. No charge up data on the PTS page, still waiting to get the PTS up and running myself.

The stats on all the new weapons save the various missiles are a single, sick joke.

I am going to bite my tongue mostly, since this is PTS1, but...damn.

At a glance (from watching it being streamed), the charge up seemed roughly equal to the regular Gauss.

Well, it at least shows that the accusations of incoming super OP new tech to make us sink C-Bills weren't quite that warranted, after all.

I don't think "light" means what we thought it was supposed to mean. Are some of these weapons "bright"?
Apropos: Why does a light machine gun weigh the same as a regular machine gun?

I gotta say...I'm kinda underwhelmed by just about all the new weapons but the Heavy Gauss.

Oh ffs.....it's not surprising it's not a joke all weights and slots ect are all out there in the Table top information. PGI has never broke from these hard stats such as weight and crit space and in most cass the damage (however lasees are an exception) .....so stop this PGI which hunt for it....the only stats they ever really change for game play purpose is the "soft stats", the reload, the duration, charge, ect....ect...stop going after PGI for things they don't create and pull from source books.

Holly crap!

I just saw the states on the Light Tag.

This whole time I thought "Light TAG" was a joke. That's a real new tech device though. Wow. I had no idea.

Despite the fact that is was mentioned on the official civil war page for many months?

To be fair, they can lower crits and tonnage for anything and nothing gets broken. Things only break if they add crits and/or tonnage.

Also goes up to Mk. VIII, which nobody will ever use.

For some reason, PGI likes to invent worse stats for equopment whose only deficiency was being heavier. MASC is the same way, the IS one is worse per rating, as if the IS have the tonnage to spare.

Or at least they can keep some canon values to make some weapons useful, like... the ******* 15 damage on the HPPC.
