Welp. first post. I've beaten Transcendence once, and I've found the Plasma Cannon to be the most delightfuly destructive and graceful weapon in the whole Game. I just wanted to throw that out there.
If Transcendence was made in 3D, I would die of Happiness.

Welcome to OTF! (Official transcendence forums) ^^

I personally find that the plasma cannon (the IE plasma cannon, right?) gets its projectiles shot down too easily.

Use a weapon optimizer rom on it. It solves the slow fire problem and makes it quite good.

Well, yes. I hope that get's fixed sometime in the near future. but, like Drako Slyith said, a weapon optimizer ROM pretty much handles that.
It's really awesome to take on 3 or 4 Corporate cruisers and win. :D
plus, it just looks SO STINKING COOL! I love it's Golden curvatier and destructive power!

Welcome to the forums, Pyro! (sorry for the delay in welcoming you, I'm in Australia :D )

Like you said, Plasma Cannon is one of my favourite weapons - not only does it look awesome, it feels awesome using it! Plasma weapons are really cool (and dead useful for mining -- have you used the Plasma Torch before? Makes mining a dream...and you don't have to genocide Ferians to get ore once you have it.

Welcome the the forums, and the fact you managed a regular plasma cannon is pretty amazing. :)

I'm splitting the thread, so the ferian/zooanthrope discussion will have its own
