    i dont think you understand my post, the food is consumed faster by the stomach thus pumping more energy in the body, but the stomach cant contain enough food to make up for the faster consuming, thus the acids attack the stomach, causing damage

    Taken directly from the English manual.

    Stims consist of multiple drugs, so it damages the victim in multiple ways, such as brain damage and internal bleeding.

    We know about the substance inside the stim pack and we know this gives the marines and firebats some dangerous secondary effects like paranoid, insomnia, weigh loss, shakings, panic crisis, hypo and hypertension, hallucinations, interne hemorragy, cerebral destruction.

    This stim pack is a powerful cocktail of synthetic adrenaline, endorphine and an amplificator of psychotrope agression

    All that is written in the official manual. Translated from the French version, sorry if you didn't understand some words ....

    You could always post it in french and translate it. People not happy with the results should then translate for themselves.

    maybe the rifles can carry so much ammo because the energy given is provided by the body

    The gauss rifle isn't supposed to fire on auto-fire, but burst fire. (So says the manual.) So, you fire a burst every time you press the trigger, you can't just hold the trigger down. While high on stims, you can twitch your fingers faster, firing more busts.

    i thought so, so three shots per pull + fast triggerin = roids

    Do you really need to be on drug to trigger a gun faster?

    What are you getting at? If a guy that is repeatedly pulling the trigger of a gun manages to speed it up without stim packs, it only means that he will do it even faster than that when using stim packs.

    Well, semi-auto guns have a limit to fire-rate. If you are on the field of battle and your life is threatened, I'm pretty sure you'll fire as fast as possible to kill the bastard.

    Take the drug and it'll make you pull the trigger faster, but it won't enhance the limit of semi-auto fire rate the gun already has. You and I both can fire a semi-auto gun up to its fire rate limit without drugs.

    How does this limit to fire rate work, and how do we know gauss rifles have these limiters? Considering they're designed to be used by druggies, I expect such limiters would have been removed. (The physics are different, too. Whatever reason real-life guns have these limiters for might not apply to gauss rifles.)

    @How does this limit to fire rate work

    If your semi is 3 Bullets per fire, if the 3 bullet are not done firing, then you can't pull the trigger again. This is the limit of semi-auto.

    @how do we know gauss rifles have these limiters?

    We don't

    @Considering they're designed to be used by druggies

    I would never design a gun FOR junkies

    @I expect such limiters would have been removed

    Then the gun would be Automatic instead of Semi-Auto (Currently known technology) ;)

    @The physics are different

    They are, science fictions it is called.

    @Whatever reason real-life guns have these limiters for might not apply to gauss rifles.

    Considering they want precision with their guns, they might want to consider using Semi-Auto on their Gauss Riffles


    Personally, remove StimPack and move all Gauss Riffles for Full Automatics. Let the marines deal with the recoil ;)

    @If your semi is 3 Bullets per fire, if the 3 bullet are not done firing, then you can't pull the trigger again. This is the limit of semi-auto.

    That's not what I meant. That's not a limit to how many bursts of 3 bullets you can fire per unit time, that's only the limit of bullets per burst.

    Is there a physical limit to how many bursts you can fire per unit time?

    @I would never design a gun FOR junkies

    Yeah, but you're not the Terran Confederacy ;)

    @Considering they want precision with their guns, they might want to consider using Semi-Auto on their Gauss Riffles

    Gauss and coil guns are supposed to have less recoil. The stated reason for not having "spray-n-pray" fire for StarCraft gauss rifles is to control ammo expenditure, they didn't mention recoil. (Also, marines wear powered armor, which can compensate for the recoil, source: Liberty's Crusade, and also common sense.)

    In the Brood War intro movie, a marine shoots with his rifle on full automatic. So no, they're not forced to use semi-auto.

    Not according to the manual, though.

    That's the Canadian version.

    The cinematics are frequently inaccurate anyway.

    In the same cinematic you got a huge recoil on that gun as well.

    They make stim packs from by-product of the pure evil eminating from Scientology practitioners. This by-product is so volatile that is slowly erodes the marines brain while giving him the will to kill anything that pisses him off. It seems this product is best used against the zerg menace due to the fact that they piss almost everyone off.

    WARNING: Do not try to come into contact with Scientologists as they are highly dangerous so make contact with them at your own risk. Attempting to cultivate this stimulant of pure hatred is not approved of, unless you go through basic training and have a veteran of the military and who is also trained to deal with these dangerous individuals with you.

    Note: all opinoins on this reply are all jokes and to take this seriously is to support terrorism and hate everything modern soceity stands for. Have a wonderful day.
