>The main thing with the beam rifle is that it's far ahead of armor technology when it first comes out. When everything is rocking Gundanium or similar armor, then it's merely a "good" weapon instead of a hot knife through butter.
Even Lunar Titanium doesn't hold up well against Beam Weapons, because like this Anon says:

And the lethality doesn't go down from there, even with everyone rocking Gundanium doesn't mean much when the Double Zeta has a "High Mega Cannon" in its HEAD.

>how do you differentiate Team A from Team B?
I've got a set of these Post-it Arrow Flags, originally as damage markers for non-block Brikwars units, and they can pretty easily be used to identify specific units.
Pretty sure you can even write on them in case the different colors aren't enough, and they default indicate your facing!
