Crysis 2 Weapon Focus - M2014 Gauss

Crysis 2 Weapon Focus - M2014 Gauss

Welcome to the M2014 Gauss Weapon Focus!

You asked for it and here it is! The much beloved Gauss rifle in it's second generation form with more power and less recoil, improved in all the ways that matter. This electro-magnetic rifle will provide Snipers with the sheer power needed to get the job done.

M2014 Gauss:

Now in its second incarnation following successful field trials with US Marines at the Lingshan Incident of 2020, the M2014 Gauss is an advanced anti-material rifle designed specifically to address the needs of troops engaged in asymmetric warfare. Developed by CryNet Armories Electromagnetic Research Division, the Gauss supersedes previous generations of .50cal sniper rifles, combining increased power and muzzle velocity with reduced recoil. Its unrivalled muzzle velocity provides a greater range, less bullet drop and less wind drift than its nearest rivals, bypassing the inherent cost and physical limitations of conventional firearms.

The Gauss was developed from railgun technology, using magnetic fields to super-accelerate projectiles to unprecedented speeds. Powered by a new 8-megajoule prototype capacitor bank using solid-state switches and high-energy-density capacitors, the rifle’s stopping power is unmatched.

Following the successful, albeit controversial, trials at Lingshan, CryNet accelerated development and within three years the M2014 became standard issue for the elite ranks of CELL security forces. CryNet spokesman Elliot Schwarz sees the Gauss as a breakthrough in modern battlefield technology, “The M2014 is a ‘game changer’ that will take us through the unique challenges of the next decade”.

    why make it more powerfull??i used it and i believe it's well balanced.the only thing crytek should do is give the weapon the ability to knock down enemies that won't die 1 hit,just like the campaing where you fall down and then get back up.this should make the weapon just fine the ability to knock down armored enemies is great and gives the guy being shot the chance to live since his friends may aid him and kill the sniper before the last shot.i think it's fair what do u guys think?

    gili680 is right.
    in the game the gauss isnt the old fashion gauss (it seems weaker then the first version because there arent any explosion made by the gauss slug)

    indeed it is dedly-but for the eye it seems weak.

    PLEASE CRYTEK PATCH UP THIS OLD FRIEND!!!
