Wait, there's a sniper rifle? 1) which gun is it? 2) This mod just gained another level in badass.

I'm talking about the Particle Disruption Rifle :)

But I am going to add an anti personnel sniper soon. Now I've finally got this thing released it feels like a lot less work to add little things to it.

Truly amazing, as always.
Love the explosion effects, they definitely stand out.

Just a small suggestion though, give the tank a jumpjet, for extra maneuverability.

Otherwise everything is perfect.

Try equipping them with weapons.

right.

Hey is it just me or are these just incredibly weak?

I don't really feel like using these if they are just going to die in a couple of hits, they are even less powerful than the browncoats. Could you make them more powerful than the original so that they can at least stand up against dummies?

Do you have them equipped with Crobotech guns? The guns add armor.

I'm actually thinking I might rip out all the organic components and make them cybernetic again like the old school crobos.

Edit: I've decided I will make them robots again, the blood effects give them a feeling of vulnerability and take away from any badass feel. After looking through all the comments here I've got a list of changes and ideas I'm gonna get on with.

But I love the flesh-machine combination! It's what makes them badass in my opinion. Robots are just boring.

I personally find the fleshy aesthetic to be quite nice. I have no doubt, however, that you could do equally well either way - it is your decision at the end of the day.

I would prefer moving blood effects to exit wounds, but either way is fine.

If your going to make them robotic then make them bleed oil that sets people on fire

Also, the lazors and other guns seem way too weak too

And is the targeting for the crab for the mouse going to be fixed too?

I'll keep the bloody exit wounds in the head because there are still organic parts up there.

I've finished editing all the wounds now and I've toughened them up considerably because they were dying far too easily compared to their price. It's a lot more fun to play as an actor that lasts a little while, they might be a pain in the ass to play against now though.

If you think the laser cannon is under powered you're certainly not using it correctly, it can kill even the toughest enemy with a well placed blast. The trick is to aim at a stationary enemy or in front of where an enemy is moving and try and get as much of the blast to explode inside them as possible.

I'll keep balancing the weapons as I see fit, I'm testing against vanilla content and balancing it to be fun for myself. I'm also toughening up the weapons a lot, the problem is that my weapon sprites are very big and tend to be hit instead of the actor a lot of the time.

Please remember I am making this mod primarily for myself, so please don't be offended if I ignore suggestions as I already know how I want the mod to be.

Yea I know, that activities is really old, haven't made a new one yet. In fact I may just remove it and include a config file for the Mod Manager
