The original Shock Combos were NOT something you wanted to fuck with, that's for sure
All the weapons in UT1 seemed to do tons more damage than they did in the later games. And holy GOD was the sniper unbalanced, it was the M6D of the Unreal universe
Uhhh... yeah. That's because your head has a hitbox the size of a yogaball :p
I can still pull off insta-headshots in UT3 with the sniper at mid-to-close range without trying.Quote:

E: And I'll have to say I'm dissapointed with UT3 shock combos. It's actually more effective to just spam secondary trigger. And that's terrible.
yeah I agree, the shock combos area of effect should be much larger, much more rewarding.
I thought I was the only one that did this. In facing worlds when I still had the game, headshots were the easiest thing. :vQuote:

Leading? With a shock rifle? I think the issue with the primary fire on the shock rifle is that it is hit-scan and perfectly accurate with absolutely no aim assist, making it extremely difficult to place on the target...we are inherently trying to correct for spread/lead target because of lag/slow projectiles, and the ASMD just doesn't need that.
Internet latency. :eng101:Quote:
