>Now when you say this do you mean that you basically start off with something better than a pistol and still end up at around the BFG9000's strength at the end?
>Or do you mean you start much higher and then ramp up in strength at about the same pace, meaning the final weapon is just ridiculous?
The BFG has a laser as wide as you are that shoots through all actors and can occasionally oneshot Cyberdemons. It costs 80 cells, but still.
Its alt-fire is an automatic super-rocket launcher that looks pretty cool.

>If the weapons are varied then that's more than enough to give it a go, but I might not stick with it for very long if it only fits in larger maps or slaughter maps only.
>Unless the guns are really that satisfying.
They are for me, but I make the damn thing so what does that mean?
Yeah, you're gonna have to try it out to see how it sticks. Note that switching weapons throughout a fight is heavily encouraged. If you're going from the rocket launcher for a horde to a plasma rifle to destroy some big dude, popping out the chaingun to rain some grenades down upon some cannon fodder now and then, and occasionally pulling out the SSG to blast the face off some random asshole who got too close to you, you're getting a good feel for the mod. If you're doing SSG-only... well, don't. The other guns exist for a reason!

>>Also, meaty as fuck firing sounds.
>This is mandatory.
And yet so many people don't do it. :(
