XxGhazbaranxX The New Age Outlaws WINMATAR. 517	Posted - 2013.11.09 02:36:00 - [1] - Quote Hello, This post is directed at all the plasma cannon users.' How would you feel if the plasma cannon could hold a charge? Would it be a PLUS? Would it help towards making it a viable weapon? How would it affect your play style? Plasma Cannon Advocate

It would make it an easier weapon to use but i could easily see people begging for a nerf as proto stompers go "ham" with a light forge gun.

Chit Hoppened Xer Cloud Consortium 135	Posted - 2013.11.09 06:20:00 - [6] - Quote I feel indifferent to this. It'd be kinda cool but I think I would hate it. That .45 seconds before a shot is the longest time of my life and I want that shot to happen RIGHT NOW! Maybe a Breach Variant could have this but acts like a cluster bomb as well. ... Wow, I'd ******* love that. Bringing Heavy Metal to New Eden. Cannon Fever Representative
Seeth Mensch highland marines 50	Posted - 2013.11.09 06:27:00 - [7] - Quote I skilled an alt character into plasma guns, just to see why I was told "never ever ever do that". 45 frustrating minutes later.... The damned thing should just shoot. You get ONE shot, you have to arc it, you have minimal splash, takes forever to reload, you don't carry that much ammo....FIRE DAMN YOU FIRE NOW! Not sure that holding a charge would really help.
Dovallis Martan JenusKoll Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 334	Posted - 2013.11.09 06:32:00 - [8] - Quote A charge would help greatly. Wouldn't have to rely on predicting enemy motion nearly as long. If you can read this, it means you are reading.

Nick nugg3t Ghosts of Dawn 215	Posted - 2013.11.09 06:55:00 - [10] - Quote I can only see this effecting the plasma cannon in a positive way.

Melchiah ARANeAE The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 249	Posted - 2013.11.09 09:01:00 - [11] - Quote Yes please. It'll allow me to one shot even more proto suits. Though, I'd prefer more variants. I long for a burst plasma cannon. 'Insert witty signature here'
Spectral Clone Dust2Dust. Top Men. 381	Posted - 2013.11.09 09:17:00 - [12] - Quote I think it should just work like a RPG, but with a twist. Hit target straight, faster travel speed, no charge up, and long reload speed. The animation could still be an arc (like in EVE), but it should hit where you aim. The plasma cannon shoul fire arcing lighning, not this cotton ball/spud we have now. It should require LOS for your arc to even hit your target. If the arc is occluded it deals no damage to the target. Lightning has the property of surging into the ground around the hit site, so the splash damage still applies IMO. The plasma cannon should also get a more Bzzzzzzt-like sound for extra awesomeness. +¦-damage specialist since Sep ´13. CCP please make our decisions matter. "AR 514. Core Locus 514. Bricktank 514."

GAZ remember me, Sir dukey, you and i repped each other.. . hopefully we can do it again sometime. xD every time I get killed by a plasma cannon I'm like "not even mad Bro" I remember the first time i was killed with one it was after i had been playing for 4 months and i was like. Wtf? plasma cannon? Is that a vehicle weapon? I swear i didnt see any tanks near me. I think in total i have been killed 4x by a plasma cannon. Honestly when i am killed by one i am not upset at all its almost an honor... almost :)
Coleman Gray GunFall Mobilization Covert Intervention 914	Posted - 2013.11.09 10:31:00 - [14] - Quote I think all it needs is for it's round to travel as fast as the forge guns really. If Preparation is half of the battle and knowing is the other half, Then there is no need to fight.
8213 Grade No.2 595	Posted - 2013.11.09 10:55:00 - [15] - Quote I don't see a need for the Plasma Cannon in DUST, same as the Sniper. People can use them, but they are strictly for fun, not effectiveness. I think ambushing players with a "charged" PC shot would be fun though
Eversor Beercase Beer For Evil Mercs 82	Posted - 2013.11.09 11:05:00 - [16] - Quote Holding a charge would make it easier to use that's for sure, but I think it's fine as it is.
RKKR The Southern Legion The Umbra Combine 435	Posted - 2013.11.09 11:39:00 - [17] - Quote Holding a charge won't allow me to reload in time before militia stuff ends me off because of weird hit detection stuff. Now try to pinpoint the real problem of PLCs in that sentence.
shaman oga Nexus Balusa Horizon 914	Posted - 2013.11.09 18:51:00 - [18] - Quote Holding a charge would be useful sometime. Btw, i just want burning damage on PLC, still skill shot, more rewarding. "Just another piece of duct tape" Equality Event
Doc Noah Algintal Core Gallente Federation 827	Posted - 2013.11.09 19:27:00 - [19] - Quote Could be a similar variant to FG, chargeless does more damage and charge has less damage but can charge.
J0LLY R0G3R Unkn0wn Killers 188	Posted - 2013.11.09 19:36:00 - [20] - Quote I likey the idea. XD Indeed, chase me friend XD

shagnasty91 The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 2	Posted - 2013.11.10 05:22:00 - [21] - Quote I think the pc should shoot like a sr the longer you hold the charge the more plasma it shoots. It also need a slight buff to reload and projectile speed. It should always be high damage with a low rof and not a mass driver.
Fire of Prometheus DUST University Ivy League 1541	Posted - 2013.11.10 05:25:00 - [22] - Quote My advice, use it as a shotgun....guaranteed to get hatemail "It is the mark of an educated mind to entertain a thought without accepting it." -Aristotle
