I believe it's nigh time for something to be done about the AEG
Created by: 9600bauds
It's relatively easy to mass-produce it and most people agree it's the best gun in the game because it's a self-recharging taser (I believe most complaints about stuns center around THIS gun specifically) that has lethal capability as well. Having used it a bunch myself, honestly it's a spray-and-pray just keep firing stuns down a chokepoint experience, then switch to lethals once they go down. I wouldn't miss it if it went away. It's also a bit obscene for Blob, too.
Things that could be done:
- Make the Protolathe spit out an "Advanced Energy Gun Mod-Kit" that requires an egun as a base item to be crafted, to make AEGs mostly a security or command only item
- Make it irradiate people like it used to :^)
- Separate the laser and stun ammo count, have stun ammo not self-recharge
- Make it irradiate people like it used to :^)
- Improve the lockbox system to make it harder to abuse than "just touch a protolathe"
- Make it irradiate people like it used to :^)
