though, in this game, the railguns are entirely BS. at the GJ ratings they use for tank turrets, they should be ripping those buildings on the field in half and have no noticable travel time or drop.

And also true! well..I dunno about the rail guns, they kinda are supposed to be able to send particles flying at the speed of **** you. the only thing I dont like about the forge rail gun is that it doesnt really leave a trail, so very often I cant tell where the fuckin heavy sniping me is coming from which is a little annoying. and yeah the rail gun instilations on ground and on vehicles are fairly pathetic as weapons, especially when some of them are supposed to be rail guns. but hey gotta give passengers something to do?

If you hear the words "WORTH IT!" look about, something hilarious just happened.

Current rail guns: less than 1gj of impact force. roughly as destructive as a cruise missile. Dust rail guns: 80gj impact force, less destructive than a hand held version(forge gun) less widespread than a mass driver shell. and it's not particles, it's a payload, currently(IRL version), it's a 7 pound aluminum slug.
