New gun idea.

Hey all,
This kinda struck me as a cool idea while PKing.
I think the BAR and Mini Gun have overstayed their welcome as the top tier weapons in Era.
So I think at the very least, us dirty iTuners need a new 200k gun to sink our teeth into.
Heres my idea, however.
The Sidewinder AR,
an explosive round assault rifle.
It would be a very versatile gun, especially good for crowd control and restricting your opponent's movement.
It would do 8 dmg upfront, with the explosive blast providing an extra 2-3 dmg as well, leaving a small blue flame for a few seconds afterward.
The projectiles would be oversized and slow moving, but it would fire at a similar speed to the Taichi Scorpion or PDW.
As well as handle similar to the PDW but with more spread, a longer reload and a 20-25 ammo count.
I also think it should have a second mode,
launching two seeking projectiles that do 7 dmg (not stacked) and lights your opponent on fire.
These would move slightly faster than player speed, and can be shot out of the air,
just so fleeing victims can be more effectively dealt with.
As for graphics, the Sidewinder AR should look like a rocket launcher, assault rifle combo.
it should have a futuristic look, with blue or red glowy effects,
it should have a blue laser sight and glowing blue tipped rounds.

I want this to be different from the chemical gun too,
with a less overpowered AOE potential, giving your opponent time to escape the explosion if they are fast enough.
It would fire much slower and the blast wouldn't be as big,
and no spawn kill potential either.

And obviously, im not an expert on this so if it sounds overpowered or underpowered for the price just suggest something.
I definitely think there needs to be more of a variety of viable weapons,
this exact gun doesn't have to happen, but im at the very least begging for some cool new guns (the Spaz-12 is a great example of this btw but thats 90k)

(the name is ripped from a Titafall gun, that performs similarly, its pictured below, please leave name ideas as suggestions too)

no.

i wish i can maek gfx

We don't have enough GFX Artists to make this happen....

(Kenny doesn't count)

Well we do need competition for guns. Can't have everyone using bar so adding a op gun just like bar will move many people to that gun. There's no weapon that surpasses bar that isn't exotic/ec items so we need competition with bar. Something that gives bar a weakness

Yeah. The likeliness of this is zero.

Nah.

We don't need any more OP guns. That's the reason Sam nerfed the Bar.

BitzSam actually creates guns, I don't know what you mean by 'not enough GFX artists' to make it happen.

Hmm ill see what i can do....wait....no.

we need another gun skin competition like the default rifle/gun.

Plus that gun is TOO op. 2 modes, 8 dmg, grenade launcher, plus explosive blasts, with an ammo range of 20-30. Sounds more of an exotic gun to me lol.
