The WASP will be unlockable via an upcoming MO as well.

Went and bought the gun for anyone that wants to know heres some details:

New gun stats:

• Armour Pen: Light
• Damage: 70
• Capacity: 56
• Recoil: 19
• Fire Rate: 790
• No of Clips: 6 max
• Modes: Semi / Auto
• Scope: Iron Sights

Sits snugly between the liberator carbine & concussive on the menu and in terms of stats imo.

Gameplay: The low recoil makes the gun incredibly easy to handle, its quite easy to fire bursts on auto and get every hit on target. if it had a half decent scope it would rival the Penetrator for accuracy. 6 mags means your unlikley to run out of bullets as you run the map.

Its a damn shame theres no scope and/or it doesnt have medium armour pen.

Finalists are the top five games which received the most votes from Steam users in each category during the fall sale.

Has anyone else had issue with nigh invincible harvesters marauding through all manner of bombardment? Shield down, I've seen them take every orbital and eagle without being destroyed. Not all at once, mind, but I have seen them take more than a factory strider and walk it off without even losing a shield antennae.

I've bullseyed one with a RR rocket and a full commando and they kept coming.

Any tips? I know the legs are a weakpoint but I don't seem to be hitting the right places. Laser cannon is the only reliable weapon I've found but requires multiple cooldown periods to fully cook one which is just too much time.

Since the start of pandemic, a few of my oldest, closest friends and I have played multiplayer games once or twice a week. I've more or less kept up with gaming since college, but these guys didn't do more than the odd few rounds of Mario Kart during Thanksgiving. That was until we all had to sit indoors for a year.

I mainly got them into the Souls series. We branched out to stuff like Monster Hunter, and I even got them to play my favorite, Mordhau, which doesn't play great for them on console.

One of these friends has cerebral palsy. He walks with canes or rides a scooter to get around. He can hold and use a controller well enough, but, as he puts it, when the pressure builds in game his spastic reflex gets the better of him and he can't do much more than panic dodge roll.

The Souls series can be very forgiving at times when he can be a magic user and nuke things from a distance. Bloodborne, on the other hand, was rough and we had to use PS5's remote share a few times to get him through some spots before it all became too much.

Then we bought HD2 during the sale. I was a big fan of 1, and was honestly unsure of the new perspective (boy was I wrong, but that's another topic). Despite his physical disability, my friend has become a god on the battlefield. With turret, HMG emplacements, and mines, he consistently gets the most kills during a dive, usually twice over.

I don't know if there is more to say. I feel like a lesser game would have nerfed those "crutches" into oblivion. But most use them as a way to pad out survivability while you try to have fun with the rest of the weapons.

You can pick up to five of the ten games, but you do not need to use all five votes.
