It feels really awful.

I was literally going to report this issue. Also when executing the attack chain you occasionally get a weird impression like your character runs out of steam / slows down attacks. This might be related to the pushing bug. There is also something weird happening with animations / hit registration, I can see a hit mark, but the weapon doesn’t really swing?

It’s a fairly unique looking weapon, pretty well fitting with the chargeable lasgun.
