Plasma Pistol- Disable Vehicles?

Does anyone know if the PP has this capability? If not, would you like to see it have the ability to do this or not, and why?

I’m not too sure about it, too many vehicles in Reach got destroyed too easily because of it. Possibly reduce the lock on/homing feature of it when shooting vehicles?

I think it does create an emp, and I’ve heard it was a sidearm in your loadout…maybe.

It should, how else are you going to disable the scorpion or that annoying warhog or ghost on a splatter spree? I seriously doubt that you suggest to use the rocket launcher because try-hards only use it to get easy kills and not use it as an anti-vehicle weapon.

Yes, in the mp/infinity trailer a warthog is shown emping a warthog

Edit: this is too hilarious for me to correct

lol

Vehicles got destroyed in Reach easily because they had horrible handling and were too susceptible to small arms fire. The plasma pistol had little to do with it. Also the PP’s vehicle disabling ability is great in my opinion as it gives me another reason to pick up the weapon and adds layers of strategy to the sandbox.

Yes, it can, though I think I heard they’re lowering its slight homing ability to make it a little harder to use.

The plasma pistol has a homing ability? I never knew that.

Yes the plasma pistol disables vehicles, it has for a while. Since H3 I believe.

> The plasma pistol has a homing ability? I never knew that.

That’s what I heard. Haven’t confirmed this though, so I might be wrong.

oh yeah, i’e used the plasma pistol and the rocket launcher to disable quite a few vehicles in reach.

I remember it being able to disable vehicles but never heard of it having a homing ability. that would be pretty cool though.

Yes, PP has a slight homing ability when firing it’s EMP. It is most noticeable when firing at infantry.

The EMP effect will become a problem when everyone can pick it for their loadouts as well as picking plasma grenades. I can’t see it being good for BTB.

I like how it can disable vehicles for a short amount of time. It shouldn’t be removed. I wonder if the Sticky Detonator will also have that ability.

the PP was/is rarely used as an anti-vehicle weapon

the weapon that destroys the most vehicles per game is the DMR

Really? I find that it’s used in almost every game.

Being able to spawn with a PP as a secondary will kill vehicle game play altogether

Im not a fan of this idea at all
