    I was fine with that, the news does that to everyone.
    But damn I didn't even say that =P. You misquoted me horribly and/or fabricating words for me
    They changed Nova from a redhead to a blonde revlon commercial girl. But then they just axed her entire game, so I suppose it beared no real effect in the end.

    Inonsistent lore. That's the in-game justification for the cooldown. Did you seen BW's intro cinematic?
    the c14 could have several shooting modes, plus you should not underestimate these bursts, given that fires 30 bullets per second, if the burst lasts three seconds would be 90 bullets scattered by the turn of the wrist, also gives the possibility to focus the target, the bullets in a war must be seized

    And for the "childish remarks" I was trying to show how redundant arguments about Sci-Fi and what is and what isn't canon arguments.
    Oh, so is that it? You waltz in here with some stupid examples just to give us the message that all this is redundant? So what's the point of telling us that? That we shouldn't bother debating about it? That we somehow don't find interest or fun in the discussion? Get real, or get lost.

    Are you offended? My sincere apologies then.


    My examples are hardly stupid, they have just as much merit as the other examples.

    Canon or Game Material has evidence or existence of X,Y,Z.
    Inference A,B,C can be logically deducted from the evidence of X,Y,Z.
    Like the rust pits someone pointed out. So oxygen must exist on the space platforms.

    I just wanted to voice out my opinion that even the writing team probably has trouble keeping consistency within their world, by pointing out the ease of deducting huge amounts of factual evidence simply by a little tree-building on a space platform. Especially in a world that is 'WarCraft in Space'.


    But I seem hardly welcomed here, so I guess I'll just "Waltz on out".
    Peace.

    30 bullets per second? At that rate, your clip isn't going to last much. Wouldn't it be a 3 round burst, or X round burst?

    "Steel-tipped infantry slugs tore from the muzzle of the gauss automatic rifle at thirty rounds per second."
    StarCraft: Speed of Darkness
    that is the rate of fire given by the author, there could only be an indication of speed ,as three round burst, or X round burst is more logical

    Why has't any pointed out the possibiliy of choosing whether to use the burst option or not. Most weapons have that, as far I know. (I rememeber some CS weapons at least with the possibility. ;P)
    That would answer the BW intro cinematic "inconsistence"

    And Marines might temper with the amount of bullets fired per second, when modifying their rifles, which there are many like, but who is theirs only. ;P

    Now that i think about it, the M-16 can shoot almost 16 rounds per second (well, the full-auto model only, and not for very long). So, to be a future gauss weapon with a 3-digit bullet counter, 30 full-auto doesn't seems that unreasonable, if the situation calls for it. They probably use burst mode in most situations, however.

    Basic science 101, how does heat transmit? I'll give you the three only ways: Conduction, convection, and radiation. Now, considering space is an empty void, there's obviously not much to conduct or convect heat to. So our only option is radiation. Unfortunately, we are not stellar objects. The amount of heat we emit via radiation is extremely low. I'd love to see you prove me wrong on that.

    And on the oxygen effect, that is true. But there is no explosion, freezing to death, or any other gruesome instantaneous death. Your main poison in outer space is suffocation. And that's easily solved by keeping the oxygen recycling contained to the head section of the suit. A breech to the head equals a dead man anyhow.

    -------
    While it is true that exposure to the vacuum of space wouldn't cause a person to explode, it will cause someone's blood to boil due to lack of pressure. They've seen that in old Soviet space accidents. So you'd probably die of your blood boiling before you could die of suffocation. Either way, it wouldn't be a nice way to die.

    I know you may be sure of this, but I know the accident you're referencing. None of the cosmonauts exposed to the vacuum actually had their blood boiled. While blood OUTSIDE of the body will boil easily, you still have a layer of skin protecting your internal fluids from lower pressure. You will bloat a lot, but your blood won't boil.
