It's one of the ugliest weapons in the game because it gets useless pretty fast (IMO obviously), is a shame there are no great close combat weapons on the later stages of the game, or are there and I haven't researched them yet?

I did not notice this, although it is obvious. You are right with this. I always used the EM-Rifle as main weapon in my teams, which was a very good 'close' weapon. Things might become even worse now, because the Flamethrower was downgraded a lot in 2.5. But I do this 'play through' not only for fun, but also to find out about those things. Once we have some experience with the new weapon balancing, we can adjust things accordingly. One idea might be to make new ammo (like "Advanced Pistol Ammo AP") for the existing weapons to keep some of those in game/bring them back later in game? This could be made from Alien materials.
Also, the quality of our recruits gives us not much of a choise here. The guys we have atm are either bad or female, just like irl.

Bad news. My system is down once and for all. I put a new graphic card in yesterday in the late morning and it worked. Until the evening. Not sure what the real problem is. I hope I can at least get my hd back.

Plasma Blaster is now a powerful Close weapon.
Sorry to hear about your system ShipIt! Hope you're able to get something new going.

So the PB is a close range weapon now?, that's good to know, always though of it as a close range weapon as well.
And I agree with your perception about the EM rifle, it feels more like close range weapon. I know I use it like that in my campaigns.
