Vortex ring is fantastic for killing swarms but the massive aoe means it can end up killing divers just as easily.

Well, railgun shells are also quite good at killing divers.

The gun can be used to launch icebergs. If timed correctly, you can send them flying at monsters or other submarines. You can also use the Vortex Ring Cannon to launch your own submarine if the gun is directly up against a surface, including creatures.

The guns are overpowered, but you can always not use them if you don't like them. Personally I think the best stuff in the EK series is the utility stuff, the arc welders and laser bore in particular being valuable and super fun, respectively
@clown1526 Жыл бұрын
@@cameronmackinnon5923 personally i believe the submarine weapons to be decently balanced, most of the stronger weapons to be a bit resource intensive in terms of ammunition not counting installation costs. in particular the medium SSL happens to be rather expensive and time consuming in terms of ammo, and theres also the utility ammo it adds such as the cargo depth charges that you can use as underwatter supply drops and other ones such as the flare rounds to provide visibility to divers

From my personal experience: Medium SSL trades ammo capacity and ammo economy for raw stopping power Small SSL trades ammo capacity and economy for volume of fire Micro SSL trades raw stopping power and economy for high volume of fire Light chaingun trades raw stopping power for cheaper setup costs and versatility (while rotary variant trades reactivity [due to spoolup] for more firerate) Autocannon trades firerate for versatility and ammo economy (I highly recommend the Proximity Flak Rounds) Vortex Ring Cannon trades volume of fire and reactivity for stopping power and ammo economy (it doesn’t need ammo)

Bots spend entire stores of ammo in a single trip if they are ordered to use ANY of these turrets except the auto cannons.

That and auto cannons make golden hammerheads turn and flee so I just have every light hard point as an autocannon.

I may want to add something, comparing the EK mod's heavy turrets with the vanilla ones may not be a fair comparison as the EK heavy turrets are different from then and also require a different hardpoint, otherwise it's a great comparison video, keep em coming!

Also : can't wait for Sspark's gunery mod both the weapon and turret one, it have pretty interesting weapon.

I know its kind of late, but it'd be cool to get a comparison & features coverage of the really zany ammo types in "regular" EK Armory... I was reminded of it since you covered the homing railgun shell (technically a part of that mod, not 'Gunnery' - since gunnery only includes ammo for it's own turrets not vanilla)

How accurate is the autocannon when manned by bots? Since it seems like a pretty okay gun compared to the rest and easier/economical to recycle the ammo boxes compared to the SSL turrets. Also thanks for the vid, this was rather interesting.

It’s more accurate than the vanilla chaingun, that’s for sure. It has pretty decent accuracy when manned by either bot or player, and I like the auto cannon’s power.
