    Clark (the shotgun, not the RDX) needs an ironsights mode on secondary fire so you know where you're aiming when you get EMPed. When I'm Clark whoring I'd rather be orbitaled than EMPed.

      If you work hard enough at it, you can slowly begin to develop an artificial sense for where your crosshairs are when EMP'd. I have it down pat with the Baur, and can pinpoint the nonexistent red dot sight to within a millimeter and accurately fire scoped when EMP'd. In time, with much use of the weapon, a similar feel may come to you as well with the shotgun that allows you to overcome the effect of the EMP and fire with pinpoint accuracy while it is in effect. Takes time, though, and I think this is an intended part of the game.

        Well yeah, when I can narrow it down to a small circle like the Baur's scope it's easier, but still. I can get fairly close to guessing the centre of the screen, and I've certainly Clarked people while EMPed, but still a little ironsights wouldn't hurt. I mean, it's got 'em, you just can't use 'em. Besides, what else does the 'zoom' button do when you tote the Clark?

        Actually IIRC Demize said in a thread a while back that initially the Clark did, in fact, have ironsights, but he said something to the effect of it giving a false sense of accuracy or some such so they took it out. So yeah, I know it's never going to happen, but a Clark whore can dream, can't he?

          I guess I didn't realize this until I took a look at the Clark's model just a moment ago. The weapon does indeed have iron sights, and if it has them, I think they should be used. Point withdrawn :)

            The EA engineer machine gun is so lame, I might as well just throw rocks at the enemy, the thing is worthless.

                You're trying to use it long range aren't you? It's even better than the Voss at close range!

                  I'd use the clark rdx if you rightclick using the clark and it shot the rdx rounds.

                      IMO The Sniper Rifle need a f***ing silencer I mean wtf were in 2142 and no silencers?! Plus what the hell is that thing on the zeller that looks like a silencer...?

                        That's a good idea. The only problem is the Clark 15 and Clark RDX are different weapons. The RDX is not an add on to the regular Clark like the PK's are a add on to the AR rifles.

                          Clark-12 is beautiful as it is! I don't whine at any boosts they give it though, I already use it alot.

                          Hrrmm... How about... SAAW. Half the missiles are flops that simply go careening to the ground, even when you have a lock. I can't use that thing when I go above 100 Ping, the slightest lag totally screws it over.

                          And... Err... I dunno, I love all the weapons in this game

                            Even the Zeller is fine?? (Seems like you use it too based on your sig)

                            Zeller needs a silencer as it looked like it does and a better scope.

                                I wouldn't mind EA improving the Zeller, but right now I love it the way it is.
