This game is so much more fun in the second zone. You have to really build effectively and work as a team to succeed on the harder missions.
Having played a lot more, I think the optimal weapons might be
- Super Shredder sniper shotgun (very rare, but amazing)
- Deathwing rapid fire sniper rifle
confirmed here as well:
The problem with any rapid fire guns is you burn through ammo at an astonishing rate, plus the associated wear level since you degrade the weapon every time you fire.
I have the Tiny Instrument of Death, and I kinda hated it, but these guys say it’s one of the better weapons. It does use energy though which is nice, but super slow rocket fire makes it hard to use for me.
@Telefrog you’re on crack with your comment that the weapons don’t feel good in this game. So much variety, and each weapon plays so differently, and feels fuckin’ great to use, too.
