yeah i agree w/ u sess, ssrs just make the game simple and take away the point of rpg weapons....

HEY DANG ITi I only did that twice on the same map. Yes I did get over 4200 point and then like 2600 the next time. Not telling which map but I picked their spawn points and it was inline with about 8 of them. And I had company over and eating the first time. I atleast was killing monsters and not just sitting there. LMAO. I just put stuff on my shift key and also the left key to keep them down. LOL. SO I wasnt even in the game. but for 2 waves. There is many guns to do it with. Just depends if you want to do it.
Later all!

I honestly never got the SSR mini (blue version) so i can say much about it..but the ssr mini pu(orange) that existed before, that could be sloted to a regular mini and then tossed after, was in no way over powered, and if anything just had an annoying amount of knockback. The summoned ssr mini(red) Was a bit better due to better accuracy and more damage, but still not as much as a true SSR. So yes, id love to see the orange or red versions return(cant speak for the blue) just to give the minigun purpose again, or hopefully some other pu will find its way to us soon to help fill the void.

i don't know what the obsession is with the ssr mini. it was a great weapon, but it surely was not the best. what gave it its power was that it had a nice spread of ssr beams to kill weaker monsters hordes for those people who lack aiming skills. but use that from a bit of distance (primary fire. alt fire does a fair better job) on an effigy, lucifer, or the thinner devils and you'll see how it doesn't come close to the power had by the lady or the wand.

it would be awesomeness if the laser rifle and mini rocket launcher could make use of the weapon spread pu so as to help make them have a strong attack damage possibility than can compare ^,,^

Not that it wouldnt be fun, but you cant have EVERY summon weapon be devestating, just a few rarer ones so when you get them, you know you have the advantage that map. And i agree, the ssr mini doesnt really compare to the lady or the wand, but how much easier was it to get? see what im sayin?

hehe, i suppose you are right, knave ^,,^ i suppose i was thinking too much along the lines of summon weapon destruction equality.

i believ the bio rifle at least needs its own powerup. its not that good at all, even with weapon spread. it should maybe make a poison gas cloud or big blobs that follows monsters fast and latch on for major venom damage. or...like a radioactive cloud that surrounds a player! or..or..or..something! just an idea to give that weapon better use.

and can anyone..anyone tell em what the disruptor pu does for the lightning gun, maybe even show a piccy of what it does do. i asked so many times in game and noone can answer. and i can't ever get a lightning gun to try it -..-

thats a great idea :D... i think im gonna do that w/ the homing bio blobs lol.

as for the disruptor, i think a few ppl hav been able to put it on but its kinda hard to change primary fire mode because the alt fire is... zoom... lol... so i geuss the only way would be a keybind for it which not many ppl have set

it would be a funfun thing indeed! to see blobs track monsters like spider mines, leap on , and sticky-hurt! but one thing that may pose a problem is what i posted in the bugs sections...if one ghosts those things may attack fellow players :o

also, regarding the disruptor...i did finally summon al ightning gun and got a disruptor pu. i was so so happy i was going to get to see what this weapon finally did. but to my dismay, you are right..i could not activate it because it went into zoom mode :{ i have no idea how this is to be keybound.

would you mind at all telling me or showing a pic of what the disruptor actually looks like to use, and how effective it is?
