Stupid Facebook errors.

Well, actually, it's not that bad. But imo the trigger would be on the handling. A while ago I made a sketch of the Dispersion Pistol for Malkavian so he can make a model out of it and uploaded it to my deviantART ID.
The front view is simplified to show how the inside might look like, the updates would be connected to basically trigger it (that's my vision of it).
Link to it.
Sorry for the crap quality of my drawing, it was really a fast one and don't kill me for the little perspective issue in 3D view!
The paper has a rough quality, so don't be surprised about all the little dots, threads and such, however, I like to use it for drawing because it's very solid and forgives mistakes easier than regular paper.

That is a better looking Trigger and a good sketch.

But How do you Insert the Powerup Cores?

Thank you!

Well, you see that rectangular thing on the side? I think that this would be the cover which you open to insert the powercore to trigger the mechanism, then, when it is drained and the mechanism triggered, you just throw it away. I can very well imagine, that is how it could work.
I made two of such covers on each side of the DP for aesthetic reasons, but the original has just one on the right side.

Sounds good.

Love your drawing Sly. It really reminds me of the Unreal Manual sketches. Not too realistic, and not too unrealistic, just right in the middle.

Indeed, very nice sketch. It looks realistic enough without sacrificing too much to realism, and the 1st person view shows it's very close to the actual in-game model. I like that.

Sly You should tell Malkavian to also make a Animation of the character inserting the Power Up Cores.

That would be plain awesome!

think of it : grab a powerup core from... let's say the left side of the screen... open the core... a special crystal and a few components are inside... electrical pulses fasten everything together... you press a few buttons, like you knew what the hell you were doin'... and voila! stage x DP!

X is 2 3 4 5.

Sounds good!

Haha!
Thanks guys!

Indeed, that might be interesting.
Well, the way you phrased the button smashing gave me an idea.

To add something to the fun, let's follow the trend of  m o d e r n  g a m e s...



QUICKTIME EVENT!



>>>PRESS G NOW!!!

Me and some Others have been talking and we have come to the conclusion that the Dispersion Pistol has 2 Settings Kill and Stun. Used by Law Enforcement and Prison Guards it would seem Likely that the Dispersion Pistol has a Stun Setting so that if the Prisoners or any Civilian starts Trouble the Prison Guards or Law Enforcement can Stun them.

Seeing as the Dispersion Pistol has a non-lethal shot that can hurt a lot on level 1 and seeing as the prisoners were really bad enough to be sent to a prison colony, I believe that they didn't care whether they survived or not. Probably even better if they were dead because that way they save space on the colony.

The Dispersion Pistol is Lethal but I'm sure that it's because it's set to Kill instead of Stun. And I agree that they don't care about the Prisoners but I'm sure that if a Civilian starts Trouble they would Stun the Civilian and take them to Jail instead of killing the Civilian as far as I know Earth Isn't under Martial Law during the Unreal Timeline.

Well, it could be that the Dispersion Pistol is a weapon exclusive for the UMS, whereas the police (if they have one and the law enforcement system doesn't differ that much from ours) could have some stun guns. We don't know, but to be honest, an Unreal game based on Earth and on Na Pali would be interesting to see so that we get to know how it looked like on Earth during the events of Unreal. E.g. a troop of marines being sent to Na Pali for the recovery of the Vortex Rikers. Just an example.
Not trying to start a new Unreal game idea here, I'm just saying that such a thing would answer lots of questions.

To me, Dispersion Pistol = Gun made to disperse crowds during riots and unrest. riotgun, if you like. So thee must be a non lethal setting somewhere. It's a glorified tazer.

I thought the name comes from the projectiles as they disperse on impact? I don't recall, was the origin of the name ever explained like that overly plausible explanation of "ASMD" = "And S*** My D***"? :-?

It's also possible that the Skaarj use it to Stun the Primitive Natives on each Planet and then turn them into Slaves.

Very well possible as you find Troopers walking around with Dispersion Pistols. Makes me wonder, is it a human or a Skaarj weapon now? Especially because of the hidden power-ups, I doubt humans would have hidden them there for whatever reason. It's more likely that the Nali stole and stored them in these secret places so their messiah can take them when the time comes.

The weapons that look alien to me are the Bio Rifle, Stinger, RazorJack and Eightball. They have these special shapes that you can find on many Skaarj textures and the Bio Rifle and Stinger make use of Tarydium. I don't know whether humans ever had contact with that mineral, but I guess not, otherwise they could have guessed what causes the ships to crash.

That is True it might be a Universal Weapon or maybe a Cargo Ship that was transporting Hundreds of Dispersion Pistols was Hijacked by the Skaarj and they stole the weapons.

The easiest answer to all such questions is: It is a weapon that is neither human, nor Skaarj. Let's just say it's...

*intense thinking, do not disturb...*

...a Gen Mo Kai weapon!

It is Possible that it is neither Human or Skaarj.

Gen Mo Kai Weapon is a Interesting Theory.
