Gauss attachment...?

Post » Tue Dec 30, 2008 7:42 pm

Ok I just unlocked the Gauss attachment for my SCAR in MP. Figured I'd see what it does. So I enter a few games to try it out only to find it seems to do nothing...? I looked at the challenge for the attachment which says get so many kills with it, so I pressume it damages the enemy. Yet I fired 3 shots at a guy point blank, no chance to miss and it just didn't seem to do a thing to them.

What exactly is it meant to do? Is it broken?

It does nothing, like most of the guns in this game.

It will drain the players energy bar, in order to get a kill with it it has to be a headshot.

About headshot, not true. I've gotten many people with just two hits to the body from long distance and they go down. Even once at close range. 2 hits and dead all the time...

I managed to get a player down earlier in 3 shots, no head shot. God knows how I pulled off a third at close range though seems I had to reload it.

Hmm I can't seem to get a kill without a headshot with the Gauss attachment. But headshot it always the way to go with something that only has 2 rounds before reloading.
