    The New SXX beam effect! It's a hybrid between a lighting bolt and a ion beam and looks so much better than tiny laser. Uber has been doing some great work lately

    image link is broken for me too. Although the awesome gif works. Haven't had the chance to check the pte yet to see what Uber's done with the sxx yet.

    Oh damn that looks good.

    Uber be taking inspiration from our orbital mod again ey. :)

    Ah we dont mind as long as you guys keep taking pa in a positive direction. Awesome job with everything in general uber devs. Honestly the future of pa content wise is looking nice.

    Edit:
    Oh and here's an orbital overhaul pic for comparison.

    I'm just happy that the Orbital death laser actually looks the part too now.

    It would be cool if the beam effect would last a little bit longer. It's too pretty! (;

    I too would like some sort of prolonged fade effect. That would be cool.

    It's cool, but it's over very quickly and doesn't have much colour to it. Was hoping for a longer more ion-cannony effect.

    Actually there are a few that would fit... although I'm figuring your thinking of 'Thunderstruck'?

    It actually looks cooler than this in game. Just a sudden flash of lightning, it's awesome. You should all go on PTE and check it out. In fact you should all go on anyway to test stuff, that's what it's for.
