--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 18:50, 8 June 2009 (MST) I thought it might be something like that too, that basically they could only put so much in the game. I don't feel that it will take away from the world too much to include them, along with melee weapons. I mean if your gun is so freaking smart that it can caculate how much of a metal shaving it needs in order to fire it out... and have the energy to do so (it never talks about the guns needing powerpacks, which is a little crazy, or how everything is powered, least I haven't found that) I thought lasers would pretty accetable. Again, less ammo, but with the ability to go through shields. | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 18:50, 8 June 2009 (MST) I thought it might be something like that too, that basically they could only put so much in the game.

Just run some electricity across it (they never say how much, so obviously a battery pack carries enough juice) and BOOM!, super acceleration (or deceleration). And I figure lasers work because the shields decelerate the actual physical slug/bullet being thrown at it, while lasers are simply super-excited photons or similar particles, which the shield just can't effect. Flamers work 'cause the shields don't keep heat out. | ||

--Matts 18:21, 8 June 2009 (MST)My guess is that lasers require too much power at an effective level? Maybe they attenuate in atmosphere too much?
Or maybe lasers would have made the video game too little like gears of war, and someone could get fired for that!
