all a mac cannon is, is a huge gauus gun

This would be cool. I've said before that I would love a ton of new weapons. Judging by the description, it would operate similiar to a spartan laser which would be cool.

Gauss Rifle:
Essentially an overpowered Sniper Rifle.
Damage Per Hit Extremely High
Magazine Size 10 rounds
Ammunition Type 5.4mm (.21 Caliber)
Operation Semi-Automatic
Muzzle Velocity 15,000meters/second (9.3 miles/second)
Accuracy Very High
Range 4.5km

The Gauss Rifle would be extremely rare (i.e. Flamethrower rare) and would instantly kill if it hit any body part. If it hit within 5 meters if would cripple shields. It would look like it does in the link you gave us, and after each shot the heat sinks would be exposed for a split second before you could fire again. Would destroy Mongeese and Ghosts in one shot. Choppers, Banshees, Hornets, Prowlers and Warthogs in two. Wraiths and Scorpions in three. One can only carry one clip at once.

Gravity Rifle:
A gun that fires a concentrated spike of kinetic energy over long distances
Damage Per Hit Extremely High
Magazine Size 100 Energy Points, 5 points per shot
Ammunition Type Kinetic Energy Bolt
Operation Semi-Automatic
Muzzle Velocity 12,000 meters/second (7.5 miles/second)
Accuracy Very High
Range 3.2km

The Gravity Rifle would do more damage per hit than the Gauss Rifle and have more shots, but would be slower to operate, with less distance and speed than its human counterpart. It would fire a spike of kinetic energy that will kill players instantly and throw their body across the map if directly hit. Within 10 metres they will be repelled a few dozen metres. 1 Shot to a Mongoose, Ghost, Chopper or Banshee will destory it. 2 Shots to a Warthog, Hornet or Prolwer and 3 shots to a Scorpion or Wraith. If any vehicle (except Scorpion or Wraith) is hit within 5 metres it will be tossed away.

Llamas

If you make the gauss rifle a sniper the scope should be powerful however it has a zoom capability of like 20 however if you want to change it you have to set it down for 5 seconds to change the zoom capability

possibly but 5 seconds is a bit much and that would just be easily bypassed by switching weapons

  • 08.26.2009 3:53 AM PDT

Just enjoy the damn game!
Who cares about BR vs AR

To stop it being overpowered either...
1) Don't have it in the game.
2) If it is in the game, have it like a broken turret, such as the Missile Pod, but with less ammo, say 5 shots.
3) Only have it in Campaign.

customs...

Yes, it could be used for customs, but if you include it in the game, it will always find its way to MM. Plus, even in customs it would be superoverpowered.

Ten Shots!! Are you mad! It would nullify every other weapon in the game! I like the idea, but just can't see how it would be incorporated into the game.

i still think if it were that powerful, it should be carried like flamethrower, broken turret, and broken missle pod, and possibly you could make the reload long, and i like the idea of every shot u have to reload.
