Geth Plasma Shotgun.

Now, BEFORE You Start Ranting That This Is In The WRONG SECTION, IT IS NOT.
Firstly, Look at The Starbound Solarium-Teir Preorder Picture:

Look ^ Look
That, Is a Nearly Exact Replica Of a Geth Plasma Shotgun, From The ME Series.
Proof:

So, Basically, We May Have a Long Range, Chargeable OP Shotgun.
FUN.

 

Hmm.

Ooook...?

Wat.

Uh-huh.

 

The resemblance is uncanny, but I think a shotgun would be the least of my worries in the future!

 

It does look pretty similar. Well. At least we know it's a shotgun. I'm afraid to find out what other type of weapons they are hiding. You know...that umbrella

 

It looks the same, but for all we know it will shoot piss.

 

Oho, awesome!
That is, of course, assuming the weapons in that snippet will be in the game (I hope so).

 

Congrats, looks like you found an easter egg!

 

I don't really care if the weapon could been in different game. The more weapons in Starbound the more fun ! Right ? Right ?!

 

Trust Me. It's The Sniper Rifle Of the Shotgun World

That "Piss" Shoots Plasma:
This three-barrelled geth weapon fires miniature but potent cluster rounds of superconducting projectiles and has a longer range than standard shotguns. A two-stage trigger system allows for either quick-fire capacitors or a charge-and-release attack to electrify the projectiles as they exit the weapon. As the rounds hit the target, they fragment and electricity arcs between the pieces, flash-converting the air to conductive plasma. The resulting impact, heat, and electrical charge overloads shields and barriers and causes massive trauma to unarmored targets.

 

You say that, until space hillbilly's pepper your --- (arse) with buckshot while they are chasing you off their property. They wouldn't let the tax man terraform their land, and the sure as hell won't let you!

 

'Still in the Sky' moonshine, get it here! Only brewed from the cleanest water all the way from freshwater oceans of LV-237, and only brewed with a man named Jeb overseeing the entire still!

 

Sorry but Fiorina 161 is infested with aggressive lice, totally unsanitary and wouldn't pass with the Space-FDA. Sadly we also lost contact with the colony on LV-426 which was going to be our first brewing site, so we make do.

 

They tore off my legs...

 

No joke lol.

 

Cool story 'n shizzle, but what Im saying is that we don't know what the weapon will be like in StarBound. Utility-wise it might be a 1st tier lame-ass dagger that happens to have the looks of this b0ner inducing shotgun you mention.
