CCP Rattati wrote:Thanks, will read enthusiastically. What if we had an assault variant PLC that has 2 shots in the clip before reload? It's impossible for Hotfix Alpha because we have to change the descriptions, which means localization and a longer deployment. Also, think about a breach variant, with longer charge and higher damage. Just so you all have something to do while I sleep.
As a fellow PLC runner, i love trolling people with the PLC but tight now even after the buff it still "sucks" against AV, mainly because of the one shot per mag.... That being said. I am estatic about seeing an assault PLC and have no doubt that this 2 shot PLC would be my absolute fav against vehicles (LAV< ADS ) and against stubborn infantry when they get to annoying....
15-4 with KLA Plasma Cannon :) (2 stupid LAV kills included :P)

[/quote]Actually it is a plasma launcher; it's in the description, If it loses it's drop and gets a projectile like the forge it will just become a noob weapon... We need weapons like the plasma cannon to keep their mechanics because it differentiates people who use it from people who don't. The game is full of easy to use point and shoot fire and forget, cook and throw weapons that are for the usual player. The game needs a hardcore rewarding weapon for the people who enjoy deviating from the herd.[/quote]
Well said but still, the splash damage needs a boost. The blast raius is fine now but the damage against some people around your feet is still kinda squishy.

The blast raius is fine now but the damage against some people around your feet is still kinda squishy. The splash damage honestly needs to get fixed but not in a sense that one might think. You see, the problem with the plasma cannon is that it has this horrible splash damage detection glitch. It doesnt apply it's full damage to targets so for example I can hit a scout directly at his feet and he only take 90 damage and nothing more. Only after this is cirrected should they think about increasing damage.
Ah ok.

As for full auto Plasma Cannons, I can't say for sure we'll add them, but it sure was fun to test one the other day when I was messing around with numbers. (Don't ask about the Burst Plasma Cannon. That was too far)
Hahahaha. Thats awesome. I wish i could go onto the test servers as easy as it is in EVE online so i could play around witht hose too.
I love the PLc and really hope we do get variants for it. It deserves one.
It needs thses to be more effective as an AV weapon but still be useful against infantry.
