DuceHason Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) Petty I know. Shallow, but here I go. I got my first Assault Cannon with twin or multi barrels on it and was heart broken to see that BioWare took the cheap route and used the default single blaster bolt firing animation. I just feel a little 'cheated' by this is all. I mean come on it's BioWare!! I would have thought they of anyone would have take the extra steps of awesomeness and used bultibolt animations to match the barrels. I guess it'd be one thing if they lined up the bolt to at least come one of one single barrel, but the fact that the bolt comes out of a point somewhere between the muzzles where there's nothing at all. Petty I know. Shallow, but it's how I feel. Edited January 19, 2012 by DuceHason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werewookie Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I agree fully. I don't think it's going to happen, because adjusting it would screw up single barrel weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madoxx Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Couldn't agree more i was rather disappointed when i got mine too only too see one barrel firing compared too the two of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kheldras Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Yeah, same yesterday. Got the Twin-barreled one from Tat Arms Vendor.. well, ripped out the mods, putted them in my older cannon, and sold the crappy twin weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monocoque Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I agree fully having had triple, double and single barrel cannons now at 50. In a perfect game single would be fastest firing least damage per hammer, double would be alternating rounds slower but harder hitting and triple would fire three rounds at once but the damage would average out to be the same across all three. That said it won't ever happen because people will complain that they have less customization options compared to Commandos. All just my opinion btw.

Hurgis Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Yeah, it was a real letdown when I first got the one on Tatooine as well. Another disappointment was when I actually heard it fire. It sounds ridiculous too I still use a double barreled, cause they just look so much cooler, but with every bolt, I wish there were two... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yggum Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I'm more disappointed when it goes to a cutscene and you shoot someone with this magic pistol that appears off your belt rather than using the massive BFG on your back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, what's up with that? Also, I agree with OP and it's made all those double-barreled guns unusable. But I like the single barreled ones better anyway.

Chomag Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 What did you expect ? Double firing and double damage for the same cooldowns ? A bit overpowered, don't you think ? Double firing for the same damage ? A bit ridiculous that a double barrel cannon does the same damage as a one barrel one but looks like it fires both barrels. Faster rate of fire ? Once again, a bit overpowered when you dish out grav rounds twice as fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, a bit overpowered when you dish out grav rounds twice as fast. i expected my gun with 5 barrels to use more than 1 barrel, it wouldnt have taken that much design time to you know... make it marginally realistic... Make all 5 of my barrels shoot, keep the damage the same as if it was one barrel... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dooger Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I would be happy with alot less animation and reduced lag in pvp. On an ultra high performance pc, input lag in large fights is pathetic, even when frames per second is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't agree more. Also, since we're complaining about small things, the laser textures from Hammer Shot are pretty crap IMO (The basic attack from Pistols are way better detailed). You can clearly see the detail difference on the lasers when using Full Auto after Hammer Shot. Edited January 22, 2012 by Drahkor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muanthuun Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I would be let down by that as well. The cool thing I noticed is the SFX for the gun changes depending on the assault cannon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, a bit overpowered when you dish out grav rounds twice as fast. Actually, I would prefer alternating fire... Easilly justified lore-wise by it reducing weapon overheating, allowing for extended fire, if it actually needed justification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
