The Laser Rifle is just a little bit too good

I havent had much opportunity to play with the lazer rifle, as I tend to run into issues before I can get it, but in past versions, I thought that it was a poo upgrade, that it was equipped for such a short time before I moved onto plasma rifles.

If anything needs to happen, its that the lazer rifle needs to made available sooner.

The laser rifle is much bettter than the plasma in 2.2.1 - quite a bit more powerful, better fire options / better rate of fire.

It seems more accurate as well.

IMO its ever so slightly better than the particle rifle as well, as the equivalent shots in terms of TUs are either faster, and/ or give greater chance of hitting as it gives you more shots per shot .

You may be talking about different versions. Weapon balance is different in the current development version.

While Im not sure about the particle rifle, as it seemed like a 1-hit kill, the lazer did seem to have less spread than the plasma, which i agree, kinda goes against weapon usage.
