Title: Higher plasma cells quantity for stacks
Post by: ParaSait on July 22, 2008, 14:47

The stacks for the plasma cells is at the moment 50/slot. But the fact that both plasma rifle and BFG use the ammo, the ammo seems to drain with the minute when you use the plasma rifle and that takes a tasty bite out of the game's balance. Making the cells require less inventory space would already do a lot. What about 75/stack or something around that?

i agree every time i use the plasma rifle i use up all my ammo in ten seconds so i either dont get cells or get them and never use them because i no they will be gone in a flash  so i save them and never use them

Really, I'd disagree that it's needed. I used to agree at first, but I've come to get a lot more optimization out of my inventory. I tend to keep the Chaingun and a 100 stack of ammo or two around for taking care of most things, then swap out for the plasma gun or BFG right before I go down stairs. The only thing I really use the BFG on is Archviles and absurdly large groups, Plasma for Arachnos, Revenants, and Mancubi. Nothing else really warrants much higher.
