I just acquired and am curious about others' experience with it. Should I use AP rounds when ordinary 5mm has armor piercing properties?

Up to you really, in the end the thing you have to ask yourself is "Do I want to rip through enemies? Or destroy them?"

Standard rounds should be sufficent for most everything.

I wanted to use that gun, looked amazing, but the sound glitch turned me off.

AP rounds are only really necessary for enemies like BoS, Securitrons, Sentry Bots, etc. Against a Deathclaw, it still has about a 270 DPS, meaning you'll kill it within a second. This patch really made the CZ57 one of the best weapons in the game.

after this patch, a lot of things seem to be the "best weapon of the game", which I think is good, that means VARIETY!!! All hail the patch!

Doesn't the patch make 5mm rounds have a -10 to damage threshold? Almost makes AP rounds useless for it.

Are you talking about the one were it continues to make the fireing noise even though you stop shooting?

Yeah.

How did a jet addict get hold of a minigun anyway?

Yeah.

I hate that Glitch. That made me completly hate that gun. It looks really cool but I fire, stop, gun sounds like its firing.

well with the new patch in most cases basic rounds are the way to go and conserve APs for tougher enemies like Robots, Power Armoured/Combat armoured NPC's, Death Claws

I hope the sound glitch gets fixed soon as its very annoying indeed

After using the assault carbine, I have a new favorite weapon because of this. It's a dammed death machine. On a lark I tried AP with it, and promptly started slaughtering the Paladins attacking me. The -10 DT is great, combining it with AP is almost overkill. It's awesome.
