    Star Wars Battlefront Gameplay

    It's being developed by EA. I don't know about the rest of you but that in itself automatically throws this into the trash. Shady business practices to shoehorn in DLC, spyware and general lack of security in Origin, and rushing development to maximize profits. They've shown it again and again...

    He's referencing the name of an anime. Coincidentally the one his avatar is from.

    Weeaboo. Oh wait, that makes me a hypocrite.

    Oh I see. I apologize if it seems like that was an insult, then, SoB.

    ZeeGear Tank droid

    I personally don't really see any glaring issues with this. There's a few typos which you may want to fix, but I like the general idea. It's certainly more interesting than a hover tank. Lol. Edit: It would be nice to have some comparisons for the fire power of this thing, either in canon or...

    Raskta Precision ERPSRS-S1 "Kuthrae Syraete" Sniper Rifle

    If I didn't agree with you I would be going on about how this is a blaster and blasters aren't realistic and how it would have to be plasma projected by a railgun... I personally think the submission is fine beyond a few aesthetic and engineering faults. And those are largely one and the same...

    Raskta Precision ERPSRS-S1 "Kuthrae Syraete" Sniper Rifle

    I'm not sure why you're being aggressive, I'm just trying to let you know of another opinion. You can say that it's a crutch, but if you don't have basic information like maximum range, how then, will players know when their character is abusing it? It's a narrative tool. Not all tools are...

    I disagree with that as well. The more details an author has to work off of, the more options the author has to create a compelling narrative. While I understand the counter point, there are still many large benefits. I do agree that some points are largely irrelevant, for example it's enough...

    I understand your viewpoint, and it alleviates my concerns some knowing that you're thinking of what's best in terms of fiction. However I disagree slightly. Having an extensive background in writing fiction, I understand that different authors have different ways of approaching certain...

    As long as you don't get your Doritos fingers or spill your Mountain Dew on anything it's all good. Lol.

    Raskta Precision ERPSRS-S1 "Kuthrae Syraete" Sniper Rifle

    I suppose you're right, but at the same time it's fairly obvious in the design that that isn't the case and that the cheek riser is just phasing through the stock, there's ways to show what you described in technical drawings. By no means do I want to tell you how to do your job; I know how...

    Raskta Precision ERPSRS-S1 "Kuthrae Syraete" Sniper Rifle

    The reason is simple, look at how the cheek rest is inside of the stock on the left side of the cheek rest. I'm really not trying to pick a fight here, just trying to point out physical inconsistencies and engineering issues. As for the cooling, wouldn't it be possible to have a detachable...

    Raskta Precision ERPSRS-S1 "Kuthrae Syraete" Sniper Rifle

    That's really semantics. In almost all cases the bolt is milled, which includes the handle. They are one and the same. The bolt placement is relevant -- it dictates how you shift your weight which effects how the firearm moves between shots, something that is important for target acquisition...

    Hello friend. Am I a bad influence..? Oh well.

    Raskta Precision ERPSRS-S1 "Kuthrae Syraete" Sniper Rifle

    There's a few things that bug me about this, but my primary concerns, and these are things that you may want to address... First, I'm not sure why the bolt is necessary. It makes little sense -- air won't do much to cool the firearm, especially considering a large portion of the barrel is...
