Thread: The Acid Rifle is Broken
I realize that this has been mentioned before but I was hoping that we could start a thread devoted to the Acid Rifle.
Firstwe should nail down the problems with the current version of thegun. For example, I am Flamethrower 4 and Acid Rifle 4 so I have used both extensively. My Flame Thrower is speed 4.7 and my HAR is 3.8, yet my flame thrower shoots significantly faster. Has everyone experienced this? I understand that the gun is flawed but this seems totally screwed up and I haven't heard anyone mention this type of problem.
Additionally I don't see why the HAR should be just like every other gun. I would likt to see it changed so that it has some sort of effect (such as a temporary lowering of armor with each successive shot) or just an overall improvement. I am sure most people don't care since the flame thrower is so much better but wouldn't it be nice to have an option? Personally I get bored of always using the same weapon...
What other problems or solutions are out there?
Ditch the whole HAR line and give us a stationary repeating blaster or something. The HAR is going to be more trouble than it's worth if we devote our time to trying to get the devs to "fix" it.
