Early Access version 50

about 2200-3100?

Well my opinion would be that Plasma is leaning way too much on being the slug type of weapon, it deals much more than enough damage for most enemies but it struggles to intercept fast moving groups and to maintain multi-kills in time before it overheats.

3120 is more than enough to kill any chicken breed that isn’t a miniboss on most difficulties, sadly though this damage doesn’t really help out on it’s main weakness.

I would instead support Plasma having faster firerate as long as the damage for :zap: 10 remains 2000 or greater.

And I’m pretty sure that I’m not alone in my opinion of the optimal plasma rifle, hopefully this poll will prove it:

  • I share the exact same opinion as you
  • My opinion is quite similar to yours but with some tweaks
  • My opinion shares some elements with yours but it’s significantly different
  • My opinion is completely different from yours.

By the way, iA, my poll gained a lot of support

Fast-firing weapons (Vulcan, Boron, Moron) are problematic to speed up further. Under low FPS, you’ll encounter sub-sampling artifacts where projectiles will start being dropped, or will be fired unevenly. In the future, this will also be a problem in multiplayer, where the effective FPS is only 20.

That’s right, that button needs to automatically take a screenshot and save it in that folder right away

I don’t think 63-37 can be considered “a lot of support”.

Amazing, so we will not see the epic 1 Plasma AoE damage again.

What about my idea?

How is that possible? Photon Swarm shoots at 20/s. How 15/s Vulcan/Boron/Moron would be problematic for the game?

(Well, there also is Photon Swarm itself. We can always lower its fire rate and buff projectile damage, so it doesn’t exceed 20/s on overdrive. )

@InterAction_studios Too many people voted for the cockpit outline customization option to be added. What do you think?

On first impression, it seems like something only experts would enjoy. Although, looking at the poll, none of the agreements are from players who would be considered experts. So I don’t really know what kind of player this is targetted at.

Regardless, it needs more community support. 7 “likes” is way too few.

Sorry, you’re right. I mixed up the maths in my head.

Although, Photon with its 20-rate might indeed need to be nerfed if/when multiplayer comes.

Still, there are other problems created when firing rates exceed 50% of the frame rate, so for a 20FPS network game the firing limit is closer to 10-rate. There are ways around that, but that’s a discussion for a later date. For now, 15-rate should be ok.

Even it’s not multiplayer yet I feel that Photon Swarm is a real fps killer in my potato pc.

v.50 changelog says that destruction meter moves smoothly and that it maxes out at 20,000, but it can go over 20,000. Bug or Intentional?

@InterAction_studios how do I remove favourites the error message clearly says remove some and try again

I think IA means that the destruction meter is limited to 20000 but the number can go higher

Yes. That has always been the case.

Go to your favourites list, select one, and use the “trash” button.
