VOTING POLL

(Drumroll) Posted Image

Ok, this voting poll is to determine who likes/dislikes certain weapons. Now, don't be embarassed with your choice... (lol)

My vote goes to the Rapid Magneto Pulse. It is very effective, especially on the human destroyers. They are superbuff. No one can face a destroyer and live 5 minutes to tell about it.

Favorite? Probably a Repulser. Squishy.

Least favorite is the CCP. Annoying, ineffective on the ships that wield it, and Gaitori.

Fav:Onas Pulse Gun
Never runs out and you can keep the enemy out of range of shooting you while you blast them to bits.

Worst:Atomic Pulse
Hated that sound, and very inifective targeting system.

Favorite: Atomic Pulse(If the Gait HVD had these in place of CCP, it would be hands-down the best ship in the game)

Worst: Repulsor, just because it's not turreted when the player controls an obish transport or EPod.

Darkk, you can't seem to decide which one you like better... Onas kicks butt, but Trazer also does a ton of damage. Come on, make your choice... Posted Image

Just one ding dang second here...

I need some good reasons why you like these weapons. Just saying "Atomic Pulse" or something like that doesn't cut it...

By the way, my least favorite is the ClusterCell. Weak, ineffective targeting systems, little ammo, dumb sprite(little blue balls) and that annoying "choking duck" sound.

Favorite: Probably the standard Audemedon blue beam weapons (both of them) for their excellent range and hitting power. I also like the Gaitori pellet guns as well, even if they are short range and lack some punch. Give my first choice the vote.

Least favorite: Fusion pulse cannon as seen on the Ishiman cruiser. Sweet firing sound, but too slow for my taste. I absolutely love the high rate of fire of the heavy cruiser pulse cannons, however...

I agree with you. But, I prefer the Onas Pulse more. It moves faster and can force enemy ships backward.

The Atomic Pulse is good for hyperbombing and other hit and run attacks.

Hmmm, favourite: gotta be the Onas Pulse gun. no doubts there.

Least favourite: the useless secondary armament on the Cantharian carriers. Sounds like a strangled duck (someone else's description originally), too slow to lock on to a target and easily evaded. Posted Image

I said that.

Quoting myself:

Now, 4 votes for the Onas Pulse Gun! Posted Image

But the sad thing is, you only get to use it in 3 levels. Posted Image

Actually, Slug did, in his "Screwing With Ares" plug description.
