The concept of this gun is awesome and the sound, look and feel of the gun are great. Certainly took its place as one of my new favorite guns to use. The downside are the mechanics are very VERY disappointing. Firstly, tracer rounds costing 10 ammo per shot is a bit ridiculous, for extended use the gun is not ammo efficient which most rifle weapons need to be IMO. Second, the face that you cannot aim-fire the gun is a real drawback. I get the focus was to revolve around the homing bullet mechanic but aiming down the sites for anything but launchers is a must.

I would suggest that this gun's mechanics be reworked so that while firing "from the hip" your gun sprays normally as any gun, but when aiming down the sights bullets will arc to lock onto targets within the inner circle of the scope (not the croshairs circle but the medium sized one surrounding it) this combined with the slower bullet travel time would allow players to effectively curve their shots at targets behind cover, rewarding players who take the time to become skilled with the gun, but still maintaining accessibility for people who want to use it like a typical rifle, or a forgiving aim-assist style rifle.
