Thanks for the review Crimson! Glad you and other players are having fun with it!

The update has already been submitted but due to the holidays it’ll likely come out in mid January.

It fixes the scope issue and slightly reduces the volume of the firing sound, if it is too loud for players in the mean time the suppressor is quieter or effect volume can be adjusted in the settings as temporary fixes. It should also fix the controller rumble

The thermal glow lingering is an unfortunate side effect of the game checking for conditions being met every second rather than constantly. In this case the only way to apply a shader like the glow in a way that doesn’t have a complex script running all the time (which would be even slower) is to apply it when the player is aiming down sights. The alternative is to connect it to the player holding their breath which reduces the chance of seeing the effect (since you can stop holding your breath or run out of O2 without unscoping) but doesn’t eliminate it.

I got the gun and it quickly became one of my main guns. The look and feel of the weapon is just so satisfying. The weapon upgrades it has allow it to keep up with damage output, as I’m pushing level 200 and use alot of mods to make enemies more difficult (dynamic universe, N12 shields, a few others). I also have the short scope bug, but it’s not a deal breaker. It was definitely worth the purchase.

Finally, a weapon mod worth buying. Some customization, decent textures, and the mechanic of having the belt gradually be used is an awesome alternative given the lack of current tools for custom animations. Take note modders that want to charge for their work.

Just for awareness, Ammo HUD v2.3.0+ natively supports (no patch required) the craftable icons for this gun.

Back in Fallout 4, I hated “Modern” Weapon Mods because of the divergence between Universes. It made those weapons not fit the aesthetic of the Fallout Universe, and my favorite weapon mods were those that fit its lore and style.

Starfield however, has a divergence point beyond my natural lifespan. I would have been dead before the loss of Earth’s Magnetosphere and Atmosphere. So, in this Universe “Modern” guns are actually “Ancient” guns, and therefore do not bother me as they get added.

Thanks for reviewing this one!

I wonder when they are gonna add the animations part to the creation kit

Cool, gonna give it a try.

I would like to see more laser weapon mods. I did buy this one and it’s pretty nice so far. There are things like availability and no quest that I wish they added but I do like the mod.

I love this mod, this the g17x and atom are a must for me

I can appreciate the work the modder put into this weapon. I continue to stick with only two weapon mods that are free. SN6 and Black Stone M14 which both have a good number of attachments and allows for different styles of shooting and play. I admire the work put into the Jaeger. But why buy something that you can get for free and offers so many variations. Glad to have you back with your reviews CFB.

“No Thermal Vision” is one the biggest game changing tiny mods

From watching the footage, I’ll say there would be something quite satisfying about using the Xbow 8.5x scope along with the long range, high accuracy options and watching those rounds land on the target. Starfield’s vanilla gameplay doesn’t really support suppressing fire, so it would be fun to add it; Bethesda actually discourages full auto weapons by nerfing the damage and ammo efficiency into the dirt(increase actual DPS by 10% at the cost of 3,000% ammo consumption).

im on xbox

i can’t seem to find mine nor the amo but on the other hand im running alot of mods.

Coffee time! Everything is back to being right in the world. Great review and video.

Not my thing. But if you enjoy MG play, this one looks great. Nice review.

I’m waiting for one mod in particular, and that’s one that will save everything you’ve worked for before doing NG+, unless there’s one out there already.
Nice video on this new weapon.

Nova is a gentleman and a scholar! Has helped me understand more about embellishing the weapon system in my own mods and his work speaks for itself. Phenomenal execution 👏👏👏

That certain sight is indeed Canadian in origin, made by elcan

This gun is so cool. Almost cool enough to make me pay for it : P. The belt animation and customization is crazy.
