And kick whoever in the dick that decided charging it makes you move slower than a snail crawling over a glue trap. Very niche weapon but damn you move slower than a krogan with fortification on when you charge it.

You can't sprint while holding a charge. There's a delay after firing before you can begin holding the trigger to charge the next shot - holding too soon causes the weapon to do nothing. Charged shots bounce off of enemies and often explode too far away, dealing no damage to the intended target. Shots no longer explode in very close proximity to enemies. Damage is mediocre. Fire rate is really slow. It was one of my favorites, I'm right there with you

Unlocked a Venom during the trial. Got confused at first, I thought it was the same weapon I came to love in ME3. Until I realized that it only has the same name - a typical Andromeda phenomenon.
Similar to the "Tempest", an SMG turned spaceship, or "reload canceling" and "soft cover" - things we referred to as "clever use of game mechanics", and have now come to appreciate as "dogs will cancel your 7-minute reload animation half a second before it was finished" and "cover is literally soft now and enemies will shoot beams, bullets and bubbles through that shit" -
the "Venom" was once a fantastic shotgun and is now a flare gun that does incredible damage
compared to other flare guns. And as you'd expect from quality flare guns it's really good at letting your team know where the enemies are, because you'll be shooting at them until help's arrived.

The Lanat is just as bad. I mean, it´s a nice weapon, but...
Can´t hold a charge if you jump, drop or even just sneeze.
All charge up weapons seem to have this kind of problem. That and adding any delay from the off-host into the times needed between shots to do another charge up makes charge up weapons VERY annoying to use. At least judging from my limited experience with the Lanat.

Can't keep the charge on the Venom whilst running, what's the fucking point of having it then? GG Bioware.

The thing they've done to these weapons... unforgivable. Thanks god the Cheeser Harrier is not here (I think), I wouldn't stand to see the gun turned into an Avenger 1.5 with a different skin.
In ME3, what you couldn't do with a chargeable weapon was taking cover, I mean you could, but you would be locked into cover until you fire. Falling from heights will auto shot the weapon too, and you couldn't activate or revive either. But even with those limitation running with a charged weapon was very viable and didn't have that many issues.
Yet another thing that needs revision and rework: charge mechanic. So much for "extensively testing" the multiplayer.

It's not even the sprint cancelling the charge, you can't even walk at goddamn normal speed with it charged. Are you fucking kidding me bioware, you make a great movement system then make it totally locked out with charge based weapons? Yeah I reaffirm whoever came up with those mechanics should be kicked in the dick.

They replaced it with the Ruzad, which has 3 shots, but sucks balls big time and has an awful age long reload.

Yeah I reaffirm whoever came up with those mechanics should be kicked in the dick. So a game built around increased mobility where said mobility will fuck up your use of certain weapons so you're forced to practically stand still to use those weapons - who the fuck came up with this shit?

Got it. Tried it. Hate it.
Eventually somebody may find a clever use for this but until then back on the shelf with you.
I wouldn't care if it was a charge up cobra rocket. If you must leisurely stroll to an enemy, stay out of cover, charge 2 seconds then fire....I just....I can't help you. This is useless.

Agreed. I just got both the Venom and Scorpion today. Really disappointed in the changes to the Venom. The Scorpion is fine except for that huge cloud of smoke that appears when the grenades explode.

I'm going to guess that the Venom is bugged.
Selected charge, could not run, but the gun did not actually charge. Didn't fire. Tried again, same, third time, it finally charged. I repeated this behavior several times on Zero.
After that mission ... I put the Venom down.
I am exploring all the weapons ... so it's not just that the Venom doesn't work properly ... but until they fix it, won't be picking it back up either.
