Also, do nomads get an equivalent of that gun?
The ammo likely will not be doubled on SHFs until we know what impact it will have on the game. Remember that this is the first test of the weapon live.

We tried. It doesn't really work with such a low refire.

Nomads will get their own things in due time. I'm not sure ammo-based "tungsten rounds"-firing weapons make a whole lot of sense for them to use, though, so I'd rather give them an alternate set of options.

An equivalent doesn't mean that it's literally the same weapon, just an analogue, like the Nomad Torpedo is one for the Mini Razor. Still, thank you for your answer. I appreciate it.

now if that thing aimed like a normal gun instead of how snacs aimed plus real terrible arcs and extreme pricey ammo makes it a joke gun

whats a maxim?
RE: Auxiliary Guns - Black Widow - 01-25-2017
That chaingun sucks it does no damage and has a dispersion on it. Poor replacement for torpedoes.
I say revert snubs to the old setup this overhaul is out of scope of vanilla since you have removed a vanilla weapon

Just tested it , 2 equipped on SHF deal ridiculously low damage ( much lower that simple gun ) to even still target ( i needed 15 sec to de-shield NPC LF ) .
Promising weapon tough , has nice coverage , but need more tuning .

They didn't remove (a) vanilla weapon, they removed all fighter tracking torpedoes and missiles.
They did this because nowadays players feel that Freelancer is an unfair game regarding guided projectiles.
These being very hard to avoid.
Therefore it has been decided to remove half of this game's potential and fun to make the game easier for today's players.
If you're still there please remove the key bindings from settings for Launch Missile and Launch Torpedo.
It was too hard to keep missiles how they originally were designed:
"Javelin family caused the highest amount of damage for weapon level.
Stalker family has higher tracking capability than other types.
Eraser family specializes on shield damage."

The Maxim Gun is great fun!
