— The Engineer destroying projectiles
|
” |
The Short Circuit is a STUPID DUMB RETARDED USELESS PIECE OF JUNK FOR PEOPLE WHO SUCK for the Engineer. It is a futuristic handheld RAGE-INDUCING MACHINE consisting of two TIMES THE AMOUNT OF HATE THAT I GIVE TO ANY OTHER WEAPON.
This weapon fires a burst of OVERPOWERED AS SHIT energy that does minor damage to enemies (WHO EVEN CARES) and has the ability to destroy enemy projectiles at the expense of NOTHING BECAUSE YOU'RE JUST GOING TO BE RIGHT NEXT TO YOUR DISPENSER AREN'T YOU YOU USELESS LITTLE-. The weapon's electrical arcs are capable of hitting both multiple enemies and multiple projectiles in a single shot. Although unable to deliver random critical hits or operate underwater, WHO EVEN CARES BECAUSE YOU'RE JUST GOING TO BE STANDING NEXT TO YOUR DISPENSER ALL DAY SPAMMING IT LIKE THE WORTHLESS COWARD YOU ARE.
WHAT'S THAT? DON'T KNOW HOW TO AIM? NO PROBLEM THIS WEAPON HAS YOU COVERED, IT'S GOT SOME SORT OF FUCKING AUTO LOCK-ON SHIT OR SOMETHING BECAUSE YOU COULD SHOOT THIS THING IN TO YOURSELF AND IT WOULD STILL DESTROY THAT ROCKET THAT'S NEXT TO YOUR SENTRY. HELL WHY BOTHER POINTING IT ANYWHERE, JUST SHOOT RANDOMLY FOREVER, THOSE PROJECTILES WON'T STAND A CHANCE, EMAIL VALVE LATER ASKING FOR A MEDAL DECLARING YOU THE GREATEST ENGINEER EVER, YOU DESERVE IT BUDDY.
Enemies hit by the Short Circuit will emit white electrical sparks for a brief moment. Additionally, enemies killed by the weapon will suffer a distinctive death by vaporization, similar to the weapons in Dr. Grordbort's Victory Pack.
It is awarded in Genuine quality to players that pre-order Deus Ex: Human Revolution before August 23, 2011.

Update history
August 18, 2011 Patch (Manno-Technology Bundle)
- The Short Circuit was added to the game.
Bugs
- This weapon does not distinguish between enemy and friendly projectiles and will destroy both.
- This weapon has slight clipping with the Engineer's fingers during the draw animation.
- If an Engineer has the Gunslinger equipped and pulls out the Shotgun, his Gunslinger hand will be invisible.
- Upon using a taunt item such as the Schadenfreude or Director's Vision, the Engineer's hand, as well as the Short Circuit itself, will become invisible.
- IT'S STUPID AND IT'S DUMB AND I HATE IT AND IT'S STUPID AND DUMB AND BAD AND I HATE IT AND IT'S STUPID AND BAD AND
Trivia
- During development, the Short Circuit was going to be a minigun that opened up from Engineer's glove. Valve, however, told the creator they wanted a less-powerful electric based weapon, so it was changed to the current design.[1]
