Alpha

Alpha is a Legendary SMG that appears in Moonbase Echidna. It is a talking gun, which responds to various combat situations.

Effects
aeiou - Can be elemental, increased accuracy, increased fire rate, speaks in a robotic voice when shooting, killing an enemy, reloading, or getting a critical hit

Strategy
Alpha is a very useful SMG to use at medium to long ranges. Its increased fire rate does drain the magazine rather quickly, but the increased accuracy can be used to dispatch enemies from a distance without having to deal with melee-based enemies. Although it can be used in a vacuum, Burn damage is nullified due to a lack of oxygen in vacuums. Even so, the normal Fire damage will eat away at flesh enemies.

Trivia

 * Alpha is a reference to Moonbase Alpha, a lunar-simulation game that allows players to speak to each other using a text-to-speak program, which is what sparked the viral video created by YouTube user motdef.
