Plasma Rifle > Burner

I personally rather have the plasma rifle then the burner cause the burner gets effing annoying witht he tking and spamming. What do you guys think?

doesnt matter now

Besides the spamming, I like the weapon. To me, the plasma always felt like a slower moving disk (except faster firing with no exploding force). I personally think the burner is a creative addition. Nice with the diverse weapons.

I can tk with grenades, discs, and everything too. Maybe they should be replaced with their near identical forms of themselves in T2?

I like spamming the spawn points on Emerald with the Burner. Sure, you can't shoot through the forcefields, but you can create walls of fire in front of both of them ;)

Awww there is a way to shoot trought those field :3eyes:

The burner makes me moist


Hold Me

burner rocks. Like everything spam with it is annoying.

The mortar causes a lot of TKs when spammed on D as well, should we replace that? It's going to take time for people to get really good with it.

I like it, I use it all the time when I try to HoF. Not only does lighting the capper on fire usually end up killing him (along with LD CG and such) but the firey trail makes it easier to see him so I can line up my follow up mortar :)

I like the burner, but it needs to be ammo based instead of an energy drain.

If you make it ammo based, it needs a high ammo count. The point of the weapon is to be shot in front of people as a sort of barrier. You're supposed to "make walls of fire" to help hurt incoming people with it. an Ammo count will make that a lot harder if it's not a high ammo count.

15-20 rounds would be more than sufficient. However I don't mind its current state. :roller:

I don't care how much ammo is necessary within reason.
I just hate having the burner tied into my jets.
Imo, that blows and is a distraction from the fun this weapon should present.

The plasma is a bad disk. The burner is a weapon of its own.

As I said in another thread, there's a small tweak that might help. Make it so that if you fire the burner and you don't have enough energy in your reserve to fire, it fires *anyway* and drops your reserve to zero. You still won't be able to fly--but you'll be able to fire uninterrupted. (I mean, when sitting and spamming the recharge rate isn't a concern *anyway*...)

:signed:
It won't fire at what, < 20% energy?
This makes it too unpredictable in gameplay for 90% of players unless you're very good at energy management.

I would trade some of the damage it does for an always firing weapon, or make its projectile strength based on the firing players energy.

Burning the flag stand on Emerald is the single most annoying thing for a ld, and one of the worst D moves you can do.

1) it obstructs a LD's vision to the inc capper
2) It does strictly minimal damage to an inc fast capper
3) it forces the ld to move away, so no body blocking, and its harder to get the disk spam on flag off

If you are burning the flag stand, you haven't realized that its main purpose is to be used for MAing inc cappers.

I like the burner because people with slow systems cry, because it brings their FPS to a crawl when you spam it.

The Burner needs to BE effING AMMO BASED YOU effS!

I still like the idea of giving the burner its own energy pool instead of using your jet's.
