the thing that separates the red chainsaw is that it gives very little(or none at all idk?) indication that it's out of the ordinary to anyone nearby. it's slightly metagame dependent(shape of the game within the game, not skype cheating) in that it's most effective if people are used to seeing botanists running around at all times with chainsaws in-hand but not using them to beat people. do that more and the red chainsaw is instantly better by default.

Yep. It would be better, but it's still obvious. Every player is always going to keep a botanist at arm's length if he's wielding a chainsaw, and sec and heads might just straight up stun you if you come near them. C-saber doesn't have that problem and that's why I think most people aren't buying the chainsaw. It doesn't NEED a change, it's just that the other costly, class specific "loud" weapons like the mining charge hacker and artistic toolbox are better and I think the it could be imroved.
