If they change it i want a new gun for long ranges, a "real" assault rifle or a minigun.
I like the new sound. The sounds of the pulserifles and smartguns (in the movies,too, but first after i watched them, after i played alien-games) dont sound really good becomes anoying for me, after playin for hours and they sound pretty familiar.
What really sets me off is looking the hands of the pred (no matter, if playing or looking at another player. standing still the whole time in the same position with both blades out, like a actionfigure.
He not only didnt that in the movies, its generally stupid.
