I think that the beams are too thin..
Like a 15mil blast for example, small, thin beam and a huge explosion..
It makes it look kinda stupid, dont you agree?
1) it would make it more realistic
2) looks strange with tiny beam + huge explosion..

Beams don't expand, explosions do. The Kamehameha is just as from the start till the end. Making beams bigger at pl doesn't sound too bad, but if the server average is around 3 million and your about 10. Imagine the beam size :/ The beam itself would swallow the map, just to that the explosion.

beams should become bigger when you transform and not by a higher pl. cuz at some point it will be huge when someone has an incredible pl.

You ever wonder why early versions of DMZ and ESF crashed a lot? It had a lot to do with the huge beam sizes.

The HL engine just can't handle larger and larger beam sizes.

Then include a limit for cryin' out loud..
Make the beam 2 times the body length max..
That way servers wouldn't crash..

If your beam was twice as big as your body how would you see what you were aiming at? Making the beams much bigger than they are now would screw with your ability to steer the beam because you couldn't see through it.

If it's twice the size of ya body, it would mean that a piece of the beam that is half your body size would stick out at each side of your body.
I think Vegeta's gallit gun aura is bigger. o_O
And that was merely an example, make it as big as your entire body, shouldn't be hard to see past that..

I am not saying ALL beams should ~always~ be bigger, but if your pl is much bigger than the server average/more powerfull beams beam size should increase..

As it is now there is hardly a DBZ feeling to it.. as all the beams are allmost the same size, and the largest beam still looks like you are firing a spaggeti string.. :S

Captain_Cabbage it seems like you want something like gohan and cell with the Kamehameha ps. That would be alright if 2 people with about the same power level did something like that and when they hit it grows bigger in the middle to about the size of maybe the Death Ball
