The Minigun (known affectionately as 'Sasha') is the primary weapon for the Heavy class. It is a Gatling-style machine gun with a rotating barrel, complete with ammunition case underneath and two handles.
Delivering high damage per bullet with an incredible rate of fire, the Minigun is one of the most powerful weapons in the game. It is able to fire 10 ammo per second, but has a large cone of fire and individual bullets suffer damage falloff with range. For each 1 ammo, the gun fires 4 bullets; if all 200 ammo count is fired, that equals 800 bullets. In order to fire, the gun requires approximately one second for the barrel to revolve at the correct speed before being ready. Players can begin spinning the barrel without firing by holding down secondary fire. When either spinning or firing, the Heavy's movement speed is slowed considerably (to 37% speed) and he is rendered unable to jump. Furthermore, the Heavy cannot move while crouched and spinning or firing.
