Bungie! I'm pretty sure 343 created the Railgun, but I absolutely love that thing. It'd be dope to see something very similar as a heavy weapon! Charging up like a fusion rifle, but unleashing a fast, acurate shot with high damage but a small blast! Rocket launchers would have a bigger blast but less damage then I guess? Railguns are just so much fun my goodness

I support this idea. An heavy railgun would be nice. With a single high damage charged shot and a very small blast radius. It would make a nice heavy gun for the longest ranges in opposite to the machinegun which is optimal for close quarters.

The fusion rifle is literally almost the same thing as the rail gun. That's the first thing I thought when I used it.

A rail gun is a charging weapon, essentially we have that with the charge rifle
-
How about a coilgun? Basically the same thing as a rail gun but fires smaller projectiles and has a larger magazine. It could work like the fusion rifle to where it has to charge before fired, but unlike a rail gun wouldn't have to be reloaded after every shot. It could also have maybe three or four shots to use before being reloaded and would deal a small amount of splash damage. Also being a one-shot-kill to the torso or the head.

343i is far from the first dev to include a railgun

Edited by JasonLeeJames: 8/30/2014 1:25:31 PMThe Us army created the rail gun. Check your facts. I don't mean to be rude but I hate when credit isn't given where it belongs. Had 343 created it they wouldn't exist anywhere else for legal reasons.

How about the Splaser?
