I like it! but how would we make it different from the regular chain gun?

Im thinking less accurate, more range, more damage (maybe just a larger clip so it deals more damage per clip but same or perhaps even lower dps) and smaller arcs.

I'm thinking very inaccurate, large arcs with slow turning speed, about 70% less damage per bullet than Gat, but like, 700 shots per clip.

PixelatedVolume:
Jitter through the roof and terrible accuracy but godlike sustain.  Maybe 40% light gat damage but have two sets of barrels firing at once so if both hit it does almost as much as usual.

And once you introduce electricity the entire world changes. Maybe I am just being a bit stubborn on the idea of changing the world of guns, but I do not see a need for tesla anything.

Lighting gun was already in Flight of the icarus so they are part of the world and they have already been added to the Bone fish enemy AI ships in Co-op. Soooooo.....

you might have to deal with lighting in skirmish mode soon enough.

We already went through a whole quote pyramid about this. I apologized for my lack of knowledge on both the first game and the diesel punk that the developers say this game is based on.
