Remove blinding effect from RAC.

Walk towards, or sideways to the RAC shooter and you will have minimum blinding effect. Retreat backwards, and you'll get maximum effect.

Ever tried using heat vision? Shaking would still be there, but at least the flash should be minimized.

Most that use racs are a bit bad at shooting, so give them the finger (ie twist your hand out), and wait for the racs to overheat. Then proceed to kill.

RACs are annoying, so are clan UACs that spew flashes just as fast. I really want to stick that AC20 into then, if only I could see where they are... The effect is a bit exaggerated.

Other than that, RACs are not very impressive. It is hilarious to see two RAC boats face each other, holding the fire button till one jams or dies. Very skillful.

Racs are just annoying all around. Even with the uac/rac jam skills they seem to me to have a high jam rate that I went back to normal acs and found my damage go up. While getting hit by them is blinding it's easy to just keep moving then alpha when they jam. By far the worst blinding fx in the game use to be flamers on the Ember before they were turned into that toy sword of a flamer and the PB's mgs.

Are people really complaining about suppressive fire in a futuristic war game?

Don't forget the muzzle flash and exhaust also blinds the shooter. Twist and move erratically.

RACs are the one of few weapons which you can very easily twist damage of or just get your most armored/shield-purposed component, which is usually arm. If you turn side to it, blinding won't do jack for you, or you can just shoot huge, bright red square, which is impossible to miss, if you must facetank it. Either way, RAC blinding is completely useless...

Wouldn't mind seeing the blast effect scale with damage. E.G. RAC/2 to the face and you just see sparks and ricochets, like a machine gun. Hit with an AC/20 and you get bright flash with a mushroom cloud that lingers for 5 seconds.
