What does everyone think of the new weapons? I’m liking the Quasar against bots in particular because it can take out dropships and heavy enemies, though I’m still getting used to the windup time. I haven’t tried the heavy machine gun much, but so far it seems fine, if somewhat ammo-hungry.

    Just got my ass handed to me trying out the Quasar for the first time. It seems strong, but the long charge up time is brutal on bots that are shooting back at you. Also, it sucks to die in a bunch of enemies and then have to go pick it up. I feel like the EAT is definitely more flexible for most situations.

      The trick I’ve found with the Quasar is the range - find a target, blast them from 50m away, then sneak around and kill any pursuers before lining up a second shot if necessary.

        Absolutely, I tend to do my best to skirt engagements and pick off targets before getting in close. Being able to hammer hard targets every 10 seconds or so is great; especially when backing up a group, it’s great fire support.
