The explosion that the scatter gun makes when it hits me makes me lag a lot. i go from 65 fps to about 5. It would be cool if i could disable the explosion.

… Wait a minute. I don’t have a problem with this. XP
I would like you reduce the sound, because most of the time being hit scares me a lot. It’s like being hit by 12 eclipse launchers at the same time.
How about we just remove this over powered weapon, it has no balancing and is ridiculous.
The weapon has easy counters. I can think of 3 right off the bat. Once it is given a damage type, limited to recons, and slightly nerfed it will be an excellent addition to the game.
Right now white damage makes the hull and shield volume modules more effective than hull and shield resist modules. It makes prett interesting game mechanics.
You can assume so easily that it will be for Recons? That might make me actually want to use them again…
And I agree about the sound. It is quite loud, especially with high-end speakers.

Lol, imagine if it was the cov ops special weapon… THAT would be OP!

Give it some damage type and it is no longer OP. Remember than most builds have around 40% resistances or better to most damages in their primary tank, so even with orion and critic, its DPS will be abysmal.
Also explosive damage would make it useless against interceptors. In fact it is currently meh against interceptors without considering resistences.
In fact, I only find this weapon dangerous in the hand of a skilled player flying a covert ops, under orion vs a random player flying frigates or fighters. And all fighters have a way or another to survive the orion cycle, either diffusion shield, combat reboot or cloak.
Frigates though… they are screwed mainly because of the explosive + raw damage combo.
I will admit that at first I thought this weapon was way over the top.
Tough I agree that when it stops being white most of the issues with not exist. Course assuming they do not up the damage on it.
I don’t understand why it is homing and also AOE. It seams a bit much to me. It makes friggates just run and hide. There should be no none LRF weapon that should have that effect.
Also, odviously this is going to recon. It would be stupid to allow CO to have this. ECM already has a special.
O, +1 I frikkin hate the frame rate drop. I dropped the texture settings on both my systems to compensate. Seriously a main gun that homes, AOE, and stuns for about .2 seconds.
