X-43 MIKE

Is this gun worth unlocking in MP, cause I loved popping the aliens in SP with it.

It's really good and a very underrated weapon, I shouldn't be telling people this but if you only hip fire with this then you will f***ing own.

I can do better with this weapon that a MK40 or Scarab almost as good as Feline because it ignores armor. I regularly go 25-4 or better on IA with this weapon, funny to see people armor up to find it doesn't do anything. Also you don't even know you're being hit with it until your dead lol

It's rare finding people who use it but if you got the extra unlocks then I would definitely recommend it. It's not the best gun but it does pack a good punch. Good luck with it if you decide to unlock it.

Yeah, the MIKE's underrated, and it is certainly good, but it should be better.Well, the gun kills fine, the problem is armour isn't as good as it should be. Armour needs to be SP style, where damage only takes energy, since the MIKE bypasses armour, that would make it amazing. Don't get me wrong, it's still good. NEVER aim down the sights, the accuracy is so high hip firing aiming wont help you, it might not even change anything. Also, the point at which the projectiles hit (because in terms of game design it's a projectile weapon) when you ADS isn't on the top of the sight rail, it's inside the rail, so you can't see the point of impact ADSing, and it block more of your vison ADSing too. Basically, though it would be more useful with proper armour, it's certainly still useful right now. I'd recommend the following, it's what I use with the MIKE or the shotguns:

-X-43 MIKE
-Majestic (downside of long reload fixed by WP, can also be used in long range situation if needed)
-M84 Flash Bang
-Proximity Alarm
-Tracker
-Weapon Pro

i find that this gun makes the ultimate run and gun class if you combine it with

energy transfer 3
mobility enhance
and stealth enhance 3

this way you can pretty much sprint everywhere cloaked and you never have to worry about energy
