Well i think for long time on this as very good questian. I thank that pulse rifal is A-OK for making good sounds. Sound make me feel sleepy like Ranzige Erdnüsse (nyquil in english) an vary soothang visuality.
But chainguns also vary good. All tham vary good becaust timbo programmar them so I am biased maybay? 8)
One time I use greenade and kill who alian base. It was laughtar.

Lucifer for me. It can be used as a 1 shot kill melee weapon , and the aliens don't expect to be attacked at long range with it. Thus , with a little prediction it can take them by surprise and is more likely to kill them than the pulse.
It is sort of a flamethrower / rocket launcher hybrid. Flamethrower being more cost effective to get rid of dretches or even buildings , while the lucifer is a dragoon killer. It is best suited for battlesuits , while the pulse is better with light armor & helmet with either a jetpack or a battery pack. Generally , self damage from the lucifer added to alien attacks force the player to go back to heal before it runs out of ammo. But repeaters are still useful with it.
The pulse seems harder to master. It is of questionable use against marauders , and a bigger source of TKs than the lucifer. Of course it totally cripples dragoon attacks , but is less likely to kill them since any decent dragoon will fear pulse fire and minimize exposure. The lasgun gives more dragoon kills at stage 1. As a dretch , it seems hard to attack a pulse rifle wielder - but more often than not the human is wasting his ammo ; and again , the flamethrower is the stage 2 weapon of choice against dretches , basilisks and even marauders (very hazardous to attack humans without the zap attack)

Lucifer. Both are very bad at killing aliens farther away than CQB but Lucifer is better to scare a Tyrant away. Luci has no reload time and you can kill more alien buildings with a full ammo load. You also minimise your exposition time with the charge feature : charge, move into view, shoot, shoot ( low charge version ) and hide => dead egg.
Besides, you can do some crazy Luci jump with it and it rocks 8)
Edit. I forgot : Luci owns dretches badly whereas with pulse you never know how many ammo you'll need to kill that pesky dretch in the way.

lasgun?
cheaper, accurate, good to kill fleeing aliens, exists at stage1
-
chaingun?
Definitely 8)

I voted pulse gun, because you can use it against just about any alien, and it's good against buildings. What more could you want?
Lucifer cannon is extremely fun in its own regard, though. One of my favorite techniques is to create a "super lucy ball". You do this by running down a very long hallway, and create 2-4 full charge blasts while you're running. The blasts will be right next to eachother, and annhilate any alien unlucky enough to decide to peer around the corner at the time.

s2 pulse rifle with battery pack. S3 chaingun to hun tyrants and lucy to kill alien base.

Dont fall soo easy!.
Hes seems to be a fake account to make jokes. I dont think hes a destructive one. Maybe hes a dev's or even a forum moderator!!

I use pulse rifle far more often than Luci, and will often use it in lieu of luci. I only take a luci with me when I am going in to definitely attack enemy base, and sometimes I'll still take a pulse rifle then.
-
well LUCI canon is good for taking out aliens base and taking out big guys but alittle slow and a pulse rifel is good for quick shooting but having to reload :eek: .............blah!! but luci runs out to fast.......so i dont know got to go withh luci on this one.......... :D
-
blaster
-
pulse rifle is best as its easy and quick to use, and more likely to hit something. but the luci is good for goons
-
blaster
no i prefer to jump on aliens 8)
-
It really depends on what you want to do. Generally I would use the pulse.
-
Luci is great for instances where huge damage with a huge splash is good. Pulse rifle is great for goon hunting. Both are slow. In many cases, a shotgun beats both.
-
..and in most cases, lasguns are beautiful insta-hit weapons with no reloading and fairly fast rate of fire.
So why isn't lasgun up there? it might not be as powerful each hit, but you're more likely to actually hit. Luci and pulse both require too much compensating (fire where you think they'll go). Good alien players can avoid it alot easier than lasgun fire.
Pulse and lucis are more for killing base structures and big ugly things round corners.
-
I prefer the Pulse Rifle to the Luci Cannon, much less big..and slow
I agree with Nux though about the Lasgun
-
lasguns..[snip]..might not be as powerful each hit,
Lasgun damage is the same as pulse rifle damage (9 per hit). But you're right about the rest. It should be listed ;D
