Alien Sniper Rifle



The Alien Sniper Rifle is a rail-firing sniper rifle, manufactured by the Usurpation Forces. It fires a powerful rail which inflicts heavy damage. It was added in Version 1.28.

Statistically, the weapon is very similar to the Sniper Rifle CS-YippeeKiYay. It features similar damage, as well as the same targeting laser as seen on its human counterpart. Minor differences include a longer reload time, the ability for the weapon to be reloaded on the player's back, and the fact that it fires a rail projectile, allowing for instant travel.

The LED indicator present on the upper body of the firearm shows the state of the weapon and reveals the presence of enemies. A turquoise-blue colour indicates that the weapon is ready to fire, and the blinking red colour indicates that the weapon is ready to reload, or otherwise is reloading. A flashing light-yellow light indicates that an enemy character, or player, is in range and line of sight of the weapon, regardless of whether the enemy is on screen or not.

Location

 * This gun is not seen in the Campaign, and therefore is seen only in Custom Maps.

Trivia

 * The laser pointer can detect invisible enemies, much like its Civil Security counterpart.


 * The firing sound of this weapon is a reworked version of the Time Machine sound.


 * Unlike its Civil Security counterpart, it can be reloaded even when holstered, a trait shared by several other slot four weapons, including the Heavy Railgun v04 CS-OneSOneK and the CS-GaussRifle.


 * The original concept of this powerful gun was made by Darkstar 1.
 * The original concept has been edited due to community dislike of the original design.
