Regarding ships weapons, can we expect to see other kind of projectiles instead of traditional coloured lines going in a straight line? Perhaps some projectiles with more erratic behaviours like lightning bolts, shock waves, or whatever your talented sfx artists may come up with?asked by JSD

Yes, definitely we'll see a lot more different kinds of projectiles, you haven't seen much at the moment, FPS will bring some more like the electric shock gun, we're going to have neutron and plasma guns, which all have specific projectiles. You'll see some stuff in FPS, and more stuff will be coming to AC in future.
