What do you call a lasgun with a lasersight?
twin-linked
Also, i think i've played both parts of the demo through at least 6 times each now.
Yo this video is blowing up again for some reason, go follow my livestreams at
Lasguns in "Space Marine" are effective only if plot says they will be. Part of the "It's Up to You" trope and also plot armor.
The demo NPCs did no damage. In the full game, an Imperial Guard NPC can kill an Ork in about 4-5 hits (they fire slower, though) on the highest difficulty.
I think it was best said as:
"One lasgun is a joke. 100 lasguns are a nightmare."
Actually, canon-wise, the lasgun is a very powerful weapon. In many books about Imperial Guardsmen, you often find a part where a lasgun will punch through power armor. The problem isn't with the weapon, it's with the shooter. If all guardsmen were trained to be elite marksmen, the Imperium wouldn't need to worry about being beset on all fronts.
In Gaunt's Ghosts, a Vitrian Dragoon killed an Iron Warrior in one shot, using a full powered lasgun. Boom headshot is applicable there.
They got Plot Ammo
Its not that Lasguns are Weak, They're pretty strong. Its just Everything Else in WH40K is OP
They're not weak, they're just 'killing impaired.'
What do you call an Imperial Guardsman in a cardboard box with a flashlight?
Imperial Guard Storm Troopers.
wrong...
how it really should have ended:
New Imperial Recruit: But sir, I...
*BANG*
Commisar: Do not question me!
Gaurdsman:Stop.....Making....You're GOD DAMN ARMOR SAVES!
Still waiting on that Imperial Guardsmen game. If they'll make one about the damn Tau, they aught to make one about a Guardsman.
What do you call a lasgun with a flash light attached to it?
"It's not a laser! ITS A LITTLE LIGHT BULB THAT BLINKS!!!!"
If you think about it, if lasguns are just laser pointers... what happens if you combine the beams of 50 laser pointers? ...Seriously, what would happen? I have, like, 50 in my garage and there's this one neighbor kid who's been pissing me off lately...
You wouldnt say that if you they were carrying the lasguns from Retribution
We must realize that this was only three guardsmen. I’d say this is canonical weakness, and that if it were nine guardsmen, the orks would’ve fallen faster.
Friendly NPC weapons routinely demonstrate complete ineffectiveness, because the plot requires it. It happens in Call of Duty, Halo, Space Marines, etc, etc. Real Lasguns (ok, they don´t really exist, but bear with me) are not to be fucked with. The Lasgun uses a small portable capacitor power pack to produce a focused pinpoint laser beam which is strong enough to take an ordinary human arm off with one shot.
