more things to do:
make fireball rifle semi-auto, fire slower more damaging projectile vs many fast projectiles (similar to the inevitable micromissile) (which it will counterpick)
fire wave? close-ranged secondary 'wave' shotgun that sets targets on fire and knocks targets directly backward but doesnt really deal damage (in the territory of like 2 dmg per shot, with 5 projectiles in the wave)
thunder wave? long ranged secondary wave shotgun that deals normal damage (the 'thunder' is just a theme thing) (unless we make it do something like temp air stall which sounds horrific) (lengthens shield recharge time? also horrific. but good primary)
force wave? close-ranged primary wave weapon that is designed explicitly to corner trap targets, to punish them with things like the rocket punch / twin shotguns
admin me
secondary snowball/bubble/what have you gun that instantly removes afterburn on targets hit by the explosion but deals mild damage (but is always better then just tanking the afterburn)
not shield parrying, in retrospect it seems super broken
general-purpose nerf railgun and missile launcher's impulse? like 6/7ths what they are now?
improve impulse for rotary grenade but also improve damage radius (if not radius damage)
consider: reduce all damage to like 4/5ths to lengthen rounds
goofy street fighter hit fx?
some sort of deliberate anti-air weapon? repurpose heater cannon to spiker cannon?
also: the nailgun fires spikes. what if those spikes spiked?
normal-ass accurate semi-auto pistol that keeps pressure up at range and deals stuff-ass stuff damage and is easy to control but can overheat, forcing you to stop use until it cools off?
'emergency battery' that instantly recharges shield and unto itself can only be used every 30 seconds. secondary weapon
"Magic Missile", which is actually a bbdx mortar- firing it causes a missile to fly straight up, then straight down on the target location some time later (potentially leading to goofy and embarrassing direct hit missiles)
i just realized this was a forgetin triple post.
