What is a video game without a machine gun? Well, probably not a first-person-shooter. The Minigun is Unreal Tournament 2004’s take on the standard machine gun found in many games. It can be either a very powerful weapon or a very useless weapon, depending on how it’s used. You will want to use the gun only in close quarters; don’t fire at targets from a distance, as your chance of hitting with even one bullet is nil. For those of you who played Team Fortress Classic, remember how some HWGuy’s would fire their machine gun at your from the opposing bridge in the 2fort map? Well, that’s the same here; useless and stupid.

The primary firing mode is a rapid-fire attack with decent accuracy. It deals a moderate amount of damage, and should become one of the more-used weapons you play with.

The alternate fire is even faster, but much less accurate.

The Minigun has only two weaknesses. The first is the precious few seconds it takes for the gun to wind up when you begin firing. It may not seem like much, but by the time you get the gun firing, you could’ve lost twenty points of health and/or armor. The second weakness is the way it chews through your ammo. A 200-bullet clip can be emptied in twenty seconds. Conserve! You should try to use burst fire most of the time.
