SE2 gatlings turrets ...
Not Enough Votes
Yo, KEEN, I just saw your new turret for SE2 and what is that ?
I love the design and the sound design of the turret, but the fire rate ? It is ridiculously slow for a big, chunky, gatling gun. Maybe could you give it better fire rate, like C-ram or things like that, and make a smaller, more modest, non-gatling gun looking turret ?
Just proposing if it can help, I know a lot of people have the same opinion...

I like this feedback
The lack of accuracy and damage concerns me. Even if they'd just copied and pasted across the SE1 gatling, it would already be less effective due to the 300m/s movement speed.
But this version can't hit the broad side of a barn, and even when it did hit, appeared to be just tickling a small grid ship.
Even the interior turrets from SE1 are more deadly than that.

You beat me to it :-P But just wondering, when you said "I love the... sound design of the turret"?, did you mean the sound of the turret moving (I think I heard a movement sound) or do you actually mean the firing?
For me, the firing sounds is inaccurate and kind of immersion breaking. I would like to see a proper BRRRRRT gattling sound and significantly more tracers.
Can you update your post to clarify your position on the sound otherwise people could like it when they actually don't like the sound - there was a lot of comments saying the sound does not fit, so I just want to make sure we don't confuse our feedback.
From my perspective, the sound needs to be changed.

Hmmm...
-Rate of fire doesn't look too bad, lower RoF is good for optimization,
-Audio isn't bad, but it could use a bit more base,
-Projectile spread is hard to eyeball from the video without knowing the target ship, but paired with the lower RoF it looks a bit wide if you're expecting it to chase off small targets (such as missiles or grinder-monkeys) unless the damage is up a fair bit from where it was in SE1. I saw a comment suggesting a "flak" weapon, this would be extremely cool and do a much better job handling small targets trying to ram or otherwise get in to "melee".

Agreed, if a big anti-ship pdc does so little to a "small grid" then there are concerns about the damage.
