Ok so... Yes, there are bugs with the weapon. Currently its overheat/reload mechanic is not working. Also, people are saying it has bad stats. These are things that can be fixed.
But have you guys thought about what this gun means to the game? It's a VERY different gun.
I think the last gun we got that had a projectile different from the "basical" hitbox was the Noble Launcher, and that was VERY long ago. And we've also got this new overheat mechanic, kind of like Mechanic's ROSIE's ammo overheat.
It kind of shows Epic's STW team is trying to flex its design muscles a bit more, and it's just natural it's not as well balanced as the other guns, since it's something new, instead of "generic gun number 3 with slightly different stats".
And to finish, I advise we try to keep our criticisms with good intentions in mind instead of "GUN DEALS LOW DAMAGE REEEEE", or else it might make Epic kind of give up on trying new and fun gun ideas. :)
