Do unmanned railgun installations seem a little op to anyone?
I'm totally in favour of them being able to one-hit me when I try sprinting past like Bambi's mum, but their rof and long range accuracy is astonishing. I'm not talking about weapon accuracy either. Of course a railgun should be pinpoint. I'm talking about the crack shot ai of the railgun at D, that blows up my Onikuma when I hit a bump going past A, launching me into its line of sight for all of 0.6 seconds.
Every now and again I'm just randomly exploding on my Sunday drive.  |

Their fire rate is like 3 seconds though? And they need to be super accurate to hit. |

Not the automated ones. I''ve seen unmanned railgun installations even overheat, which is impossible when manned by a player.
I realise they need to be accurate, but the level of accuracy shown by these is beyond even a dedicated ai. It's at least beyond a realistic one. |

Manned ones most definitely can overheat, in fact much faster this build than last. Probably 4-5 shots tops of constant firing. |

Perhaps a skill increase can affect fire rate, because when I jump in a railgun turret it is physically impossible for me to fire fast enough to make it overheat. |

No skills whatsoever. I can overheat them with both my chars neither of whom have any turret skills. |

Fair enough. Guess I was just doing something wrong, or got unlucky with a glitch. |

If you hold down the fire button the railgun will fire every ~1.5 seconds about 4 times before overheating. If you let go off the fire button after each shot then you can only fire every 3-4 seconds and will never overheat. |
