Description

The most powerful weapon available to players, the minigun is capable of easily cutting through hordes of monsters with a fast stream of bullets. The minigun can be spun-up/kept spinning by holding using the secondary fire button. Pressing the fire button in this mode will make the minigun fire straight away, without the need for the initial spin-up. The minigun offers a continuous belt of 5.56mm rounds without the need to reload.

Additional info

• While holding the minigun, players are a lot slower, unable to jump, and unable to change weapons. You must drop the minigun to be able to select another weapon (set a key to drop weapon in the control options, or bind any key to drop).
• Players must pick up a minigun by using one on the ground rather than simply walking over one.
• The minigun cannot be fired while the player is on a ladder.
• When a heavy weapons grunt is killed, his minigun is dropped and is available for a player to pick up.
• Accuracy is dramatically improved by crouching while firing.
• Warning While using the minigun a lone player is extremely vulnerable. The minigun must be used as a support weapon, with other players defending the minigunner and/or distracting enemies until the minigun can be spun up.
