No it shouldn't have because I want a heavy laser cannon and that's that. You Gallete can have your ****** plasma weaponry and crappy ass technology I want my sleek and golden designs casting light to the far edges of the map.
They could of made the visuals more golden including the actual blast that it emits. I'm actually hoping Amarr gets something similar, I'd rather have a dumbfire weapon than a lock on weapon.

I've been thinking a lot of the recent/planned weapon updates have been favoring Amarr.  |

Wrong! Gallente favor Blasters. Caldari favors Railguns.

The plasma cannon is such a crappy weapon. I think the Amarr scum deserve it
Oh and

I think you will find that visible light, UV, gamma, radio, IR, microwave and X-ray radiation are all photons with different energies/frequency/wavelength. They all travel at the speed of light.
Even slow (thermal) neutrons move at 2000 m/s which give a travel time over 50m of 0.025 seconds. Whilst it's not even close to relativistic speeds, it's faster than you can blink by a factor of 12 and below what is perceived by the brain to be instantaneous.
Back to high school physics classes for you :p |

Not true. the Amarrians use all sorts of weapons on the ground, even conventional bullet-shooting rifles. They prefer, however, anything that fits the 'cleansing with fire' trope.
Laser and plasma weaponry both fit, and as such are commonly used by empire forces.
The way the plasma cannon IS NOW, should be an amarrian weapon. It functions exactly like the Amarrian 'Arc Cannon' described in the Templar one novel. IMO, both should exist in game with the following differences:
Amarr: Arc Cannon style weapon similar to what we have now, logs a slow moving ball of plasma, limited range, plasma bursts over a wide area upon impact (3-4 m? ) causing good splash damage. More effective against infantry than what exists now, slightly less effective against vehicles than what exists now.
Gallente: Fires a highly compressed plasma bolt at high speed and with a flat trajectory, making it more of a precision weapon. Much less splash damage ( 0.5 - 1m ? ) with high direct damage, low splash damage. Less effective against infantry, but much more effective against vehicles than what we have now. |

We have irreconcilable differences on that point. Who is my Minmatar representative in Shanghai?

Wrong! Gallente favor hybrid weapons, making use of both railguns and blasters, though with a slight bias towards blasters. Due to the limited range of blasters though, many gallente naval ships are outfitted with railguns to combat the longer range MISSILE combat the Caldari favor. |
