i think i know him.. i FG sniped him at 280m then he respawned and counter FG sniped me back, he never died the rest of the match or before that. |

Rail guns are supposed to deal massive amounts of damage per shot at the cost of ROF at high ranges. The FG is supposed to be a heavy sniper platform.
actually im pretty it is close to a ball of electricity
btw nice bring up a topic on rails and not forge guns so here is a topic on forge guns and what i would like to point out is this Quote:....the forge gun utilises a stored electric charge to fire kinetic slugs at speeds....
with the underline word in question meaning
2.caused by motion. source
a slug made by motion or air if you would have it.
these weapons actually have very short ranges but are powerful at those short ranges. its not meant to be the "heavy sniper platform" is meant to be the heavy anti-vehicle platform. |

The effect you are referring to is Gallente blaster tech, and if you look athe the weapon profiles you'll see that that the FG is indeed a railgun that shoots slugs. The FG is basically just a giant sniper rifle.
the way it fires is the same as rails would fire. just because it fit under that group does not make it that, nice try on word play but you are wrong, btw air is a material body. why the clip even looks like a large battery. |

From the source wrote:
Powered by a Gemini microcapacitor, the Forge Gun utilizes a stored electric charge to fire kinetic slugs at speeds in excess of 7,000 m/s, enough to penetrate even augmented armor systems. During the pre-fire charge, the forward armature locks into position, stabilizing the magnetic field and helping to shield the user from backscatter and the excessive heat produced. Power generation remains the single largest drawback of the current design, the onboard capacitor requiring a significant amount of time to reach full power after each discharge.

nice try on word play but you are wrong
lol it still doesn't proof your right. ice is the solid state of water, plasma is the solid state of air..... plus that site is the most incomplete junk i have ever seen. 6 weapons and 4 vehicles. no mass drivers, no scambler rifles, no armor tanks no MLT tanks, no enforcers, no snipers rifles. its so incomplete that is best to call it out dated and completely incorrect in everything is actually has on it and can not be used as source. it doesn't even have turrets, any of them! |

It's damage profile is .9 to shields and 1.1 to armor. That means it fires the same sort of projectile as the other rail guns. If it fired solid-state air (plasma) it would be 1.1 to shields and .9 t armor. And this is taken from the 1.2 devbog, so it's as current as you can get. If it fired chunks of plasma, I think it'd be in the description as that is an awesome sci-fi weapon. they wouldn't leave people to assume it fires boring slugs. Which it totally does.
i accept your surrender forum warrior. |
