Small Dead Space Revision

[KnightOfSunlight]

So, Isaac Clarke's speed section reads as follows:

At least Average Human while on foot, at least Subsonic while using his RIG's thrusters in Zero-G (Slightly faster than a Bullet Train in the future), Supersonic+ reactions (Can react to powerful weapons and even gunfire to some extent. Can react to Twitcher. Dodged Danik's bullet at point-blank range. Can react to and dodge fire from Plasma Cutters, as well as normal firearms), Subsonic to Supersonic+ attack speed with weapons

This covers everything he has in his arsenal with the exception of one thing: The Contact Beam

The Contact Beam, which is officially titled the C99 Supercollider Contact Beam, is a miniaturized Particle Supercollider. Supercolliders, also known as Particle Accelerators, accelerate small particles to at least 10% the speed of light, with higher end Supercolliders accelerators sending particles to around 99.7% the speed of light.

Given this information, The Contact Beam should have a similar attack speed to at least the lowest end of a Particle Accelerators. So, Isaac's speed section should be revised to state:

At least Average Human while on foot, at least Subsonic while using his RIG's thrusters in Zero-G (Slightly faster than a Bullet Train in the future), Supersonic+ reactions (Can react to powerful weapons and even gunfire to some extent. Can react to Twitcher. Dodged Danik's bullet at point-blank range. Can react to and dodge fire from Plasma Cutters, as well as normal firearms), Subsonic to Supersonic+ attack speed with most weapons, At least Relativistic attack speed with The Contact Beam (As a particle accelerator, should at least accelerate its rounds to 10% the speed of light)

(if anyone is curious, the Contact Beam appears to be a handheld Linear Particle Accelerator. Not useful knowledge, but, still.)

This is reasonable.

Oh hi Knight, long time i dont see you here.

The CTR seems fine, i would suggest giving scans just to avoid anybody doing uncessary CTR because of miss-communication.

 

[Mister6ame6]

Seems ok for me.

I'd need to open up the game and get exact screenshots of data-logs and entries, but the name of the weapon should be enough to assuage most skepticism.

Going off the wiki:

Like the Force Gun, the Contact Beam is an energy projector that utilizes kinetic energy. As its name suggests, it is a miniaturized particle accelerator intended for mining operations.

so yeah seems fine

Accelerating particles to relativistic speeds doesn't mean the entire body of the projectile is being launched forward at said speeds. Flamethrowers have Sub-Relativistic particles given that it is hot enough to be plasma, but the actual muzzle velocity of a flamethrower is no where near that fast. It just means it's a very hot plasma beam. Water particles also travel at 500 m/s per second in room temperatures, but all that really means is the water has that much thermal energy if you plug that into a kinetic energy calculator. But it doesn't mean splashing water that has X particle velocity equates to the splash being the same thing.

Why does Isaac have a supersonic+ reaction?
He obviously dodged the bullet before Danik fired.
His reaction allows him to react to Twitchers to some extent, however it is subsonic or subsonic+
