Talk:M-22 Eviscerator

The Eviscerator (like every other shotgun) inherits from the shotgun entry in coalesced.ini. This means it uses the shotgun range modifiers. Please don't post inaccurate information.


 * Tell that to the numerous batarians and Collectors I've ripped to shreds with it from far away. Were you game designer or programmer on the game at all? Last I checked, all the weapons inherited from the generic weapon, not individual shotgun (as that would be the Katana which holds incomplete data entries). Phylarion 00:06, May 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * Read the actual ini file instead of speculating. BIOWeapon.ini line 2: ";;The Cerberus Shotgun extends the shotgun." Since the Eviscerator entry doesn't specify its own range modifiers, it inherits them from the shotgun. The Katana has incomplete entries because it in turn inherits from the generic entry.Athenau 00:11, May 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Take your own advice. 'Extends' =/= 'Inherits'. Tried drastically editing the values of the Katana, had no effect on the Eviscerator whatsoever. 129.11.77.197 15:41, May 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Uh, "extend" is semantically identical to "inherit" when talking about pretty much any object-oriented language. And which values did you edit? The Eviscerator has its own values of damage, ROF, and mag size, so of course it's not going to reflect changes to those fields made on the Katana. Try the following, _remove_ the ROF or damage entry from the Eviscerator and then change the Katana's values. Athenau 12:10, May 3, 2010 (UTC)

Eviscerator IS named after a sword
I apologize if I come across as annoyed, but it disturbs me how some of you apparently can't be bothered to read the in-game descriptions (or the on-wiki ones):

''"The Lieberschaft 2180 shotgun, or "Eviscerator," is of human civilian design and has a unique ammunition generator." ''

A "lieberschaft" is indeed a type of sword, a German one at that. Sure, it is relatively unknown compared to a claymore, katana and scimitar, but it's a sword nonetheless. To say that the information that it is named after a type of sword under the Lieberschaft name should only be on a German wiki (I'm looking at you, Arbington), is like saying that the Katana should only be classified as named after a sword on a Japanese wiki.

Also, from the context of the description it should be clear that "Eviscerator" is the weapon's nickname, similar to how the Cain is also known as the "Nuke Launcher". 85.147.165.48 19:06, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
