Why does the AR (a blaster) appear to shoot phosphorescent tracer rounds...IE, bullets?
In my mind it should be shooting globs of plasma at short ranges.
Same with the Gallente shotgun...instead of shooting shot, it should be shooting smaller plasma globs.
You know, because blasters........... |

You know, because blasters........... Something that is bright and fast will generally look like a tracer round.
Considering that the whole game is based on mostly technobabble this is actually one of the more plausible parts of the game.

Please no, you switch plasma "bullets" to plasma "blobs" ; using CCP logic... We'll get fubber style tracers with every shot sounding like little kids playing kick ball using a half inflated ball... |

But that's just it, the plasma globs wouldn't be that fast moving. Gallente Blasters are CQ weapons (not as much as shotguns) therefore the projectile does not need to move at say SCR bolt or theoretical Rail Rifle sabot speeds.
Basically in my mind, the AR's should be shooting slower moving blue orbs of energy rather than lines that look like tracers from BF3. |
