That looks like fucking garbage, my man.

BFG Idea: magnetic mass accelerator (railgun), with a solid projectile travelling at the highest speed GZDoom allows, +RIPPING through basically any enemy (generally gibbing them violently), stopping only at solid surfaces, or Spiderminds/Cyberdemons, where the projectile, a shaped charge penetrator, explodes violently, doing extra damage to Spidy and Cybie (who are otherwise resistant to bullets and shrapnel), having a concentrated (like 64 or 128 units wide) blast area, but obliterating or seriously wounding, just about anything that isn't enormous.
It'd make less of a PEW sound, and more just a thundering bang, the moving projectile alerting monsters all throughout it's flight path.

This is for the primary fire, it will be able to fire like this in reasonably fast succession, and do so like maybe 3 or 4 times before reloading, essentially taking the place of the rocket launcher at long ranges (as a grenade launcher takes its place at intermediate/shorter ranges). Large rocket pickups gives grenades grenades already, and lone rockets will be single units for these.

The alt fire will use it's own ammo type, and be much more AOE oriented, like a more typical BFG.

Y/N?
