First off, I must say that I love the idea of this game and it is great so far and hopefully gets even better in the future, great job guys!
One thing that has been bugging me though is the power of the minigun. I don't know if I don't know how to use it or what but it seems that it takes twice as long to kill a zombie with the minigun than it does with a handgun. The minigun should just blaze through them and rip them apart! just like in that part in Terminator 2, man I love that part! Lemme know what ya think, just my $0.02. |

aim for the head, and it will. it takes 3-4 bullits or something, but the thing fires soo damnb fast not to mention has a ammo reserve like you wont belive so it doesnt even matter.
shooting at the torso wont do much good. but go get the gattling, jump ontop of a car, then let it rip at fred's head. on your own server, you'd kill him with about 2/3rds - 3/4ths of your ammo. you cant even do that with a m16 with a refil or 2. |

Short, controled bursts to the head. just like any other weapon. Minigun pales in comparison to the flamethrower for a mob of zombies though...

tens if you account for the approx 10% accuracy it has on full auto. If the bullet does not hit the head, then it really didn't do any real damage.
As for ammo, that all depends on the mapper, some of us are growing fond of low ammo loadouts  -------------------- BB Maps I've made...

theres no way to set the pickup ammo for the gattling, and its all you'll get for that gun. not for a mapper anyway.

Unless you overrode the ammo setting availible in the bb_equipment entity, the mapper can set the default ammo in the gun to what they want. -------------------- BB Maps I've made...

I know, I load out the minigun with about 800-900 rounds of ammunition on stronghold

The flamethrower, on the other hand, doesn't seem to cut it at high difficulty, especially since it won't stop the zombies from advancing and you'll have to ignite them several times. |

Any zombie on fire deals damage in a radius to other zombies, couple that with a high skill and a mob of zombies will go down to a flamethrower faster than a minigun. Just takes a couple seconds before the fire starts dropping them. Though in maps where zombies are spread out, the minigun is more effective than the flamethower.

Don't you mean "subjects" And I pulled that information from the PE flamethrower... You can learn a lot about BB weapons from PE -------------------- BB Maps I've made...
