i was wondering whether using the new expolsives weps
skill (heavy weapon)

and if so then why the hell dosent my cannon

and if not then has anyone heard of any plans to unlock
(heavy wep skills)


mainy because i know if i sell my white elephant cannon
the next day they will unlock it "just my luck"

cheers all
 
Think they all give support weapon skill.

Don't know any weapon that use heavy weapons for now.
 
One of these days maybe we`ll see a true invasion where we colonists get to man the large guns and tanks that sit idle on the edges of towns and cities. Now that would be heavy weapons!
 
cheers both

the one main reason i bought my cannon ages ago is if u look real close
at the heavy weapon skill icon its a picture of a cannon

perhaps ma are just testing my willpower 2k ped or a next to usless
gun that dosent skill but may at some point arrrrrrrgh:banghead:
 
just think i found an answer to my above post :(

(Marco)
* ETA on activating heavy weapons skill, particle beam skill, stamina attribute, and other skills that is not active?

No ETA yet. It will come though (and the heavy weapons icon will change from the confusing Laganus canon).



mmm interesting comment on "changing the confusing heavy weapon skills icon from the lagunas cannon"
id just like a straight answer
considering the lagunus cannon is described as a "heavy weapon"
and fires "heavy weapon cells"
are they ever going to unlock heavy wep skills for it
or just change the icon and say sorry we just put the cannon icon on for a loooong time to represent that stat but hey it aint got anything to do with the skill :(
sorry to all of u holding onto a cannon for years but its next to usless

does this mean
mabey replace the drilling icon with a rubber chicken
or the handgun icon with a kettle
ahh what the hell lets change them all for random images

woulda posted a link to my other post but dont know how to :p

edited link

if u happen to look on the descripton of the cannon it says
"fires explosive projectiles"
cmon that kinda clinches it
what were we supposed to think :(

That EU is dynamic ? :rolleyes:

Personally I wouldn't have minded one of those cannons, but if I owned one right now I'd really think about selling it before the new gear devalues it to hell. That would add insult to injury wouldn't it?

trouble is who would buy one now :(
hell theres dynamic lol.... and then theres downright misleading

i mean if i bought a car that says petrol on the badge
i wouldent expect it to be a desil
and then if they just changed the badge "like i suspect they will"
and say put up with it i think id be driving it through the showroom window lol

Carl, THANKS for posting the description from your cannon. I feel that your cannon SHOULD do splash damage after this VU. NOTE: My Adj Cannon Description specially states its a heavy weapon but fires NON-Explosive bullets designed for penetration. Interesting, eh? Now with the Adj Cannon, because of the description, MA can easily get away without it doing splash damage...but yours SHOULD. File a support case mate.

Laganaus cannons dont use explosives so o area dmg
 
hmm, ok so Laganaus cannons are doing area dmg?
 
yup as cindy says by all rights they should look at the evidence i have pointed out in the previous posts
i think its unfair they do not do area damage or skill 1 of the new skills
as the stats/description/icon on heavy weapons lead us to belive
 
have done cheers all
 
update


6 days and still no reply from ma :(
 
Marco said "The confusing heavy weapon symbol will be fixed"
(must be ultra-hard to change it, as it took months already) ;)

So you should forget about your Laganaus doing explosive damage...

...then again its quite confusing... maybe MA will remove Laganaus`s from the universe and replace it with (L) cannons :p
 
its not so much the area effect damage im concerned about
its more the skills
and the fact i feel extremly mislead and scammed

if i got a someone to scan it and read the description
"fires explosive projectiles"
then sold it to them under the impresion that it did
id be a scammer
mmmm ma time to lock your own accounts i think :p

for something like this you always wait more then a week this isn't exactly a easy question for some "trained" tech support guy that mostly deals with my avatar is stuck or i'm missing this item or i got scammed reports.

The fact that it's taking a while to respond usually means that they are taking it to the next level (the dev team) and you hopefully will get a response after an update or VU saying that it is fixed now. So relax and hang on to it. MA usually doesn't depretate item values very very rarely and something that always had that kind of markup on it i don't think would be reduced to TT+10 ...

One thing i've learned about MA if you wanna enjoy EU you realy need a LOT of patience.
 
8 days an still nothing
and i have a lot of patience i only bin without my cannon for about a month just b4 christmass and i kept my faith in ma to 1 day make it a useful weapon living up to its claims
so i bin watin a year for them to make my favorite gun
do what it says on the tin
ahhh hell i think im now allowed a bit of impatiance
