That's correct.

shevegen:
I think Jamming could be fun and should be part of the game, although at a very low rate ;)

And I think secondary weapons outrule primary weapons except on tough aliens and difficult maps >:)

Ankheg:
Maybe it will be more actual to add overheating, not jamming?
Yes, when weapon wlll be overheated it will be as disabled as in jamming case, but that will be more pedictable and less nervous.

As they are so useful - why don't have every soldier one?

If I waive a secondary weapon - I can carry more ammo for my primary weapon. Which is generally more powerful, accurate and reliable.

Secondary weapons for the 'special weapons' squad aren't news and hardly the topic. But for example the grenade launcher is often integrated in the primary weapon - like the M203.


--- Quote from: eleazar ---More importantly They generally require fewer TUs, and thus can be used when low on TUs and will be a much better reaction fire choice with the new reaction fire rules.

At first, you need to draw the secondary weapon. Imho the use of two weapons isn't punished (yet) in UFO, as the rocket launcher is the only weapon you need to drop on the ground.
