Well then we should all just carry 100ft long rail guns that fire half ton metal slugs at our enemies and kill them in a single hit.

Also helmets have a hard time stopping ANY rifle bullet in present day combat, and those huge sniper rifles are just for shooting through armor/torso shots, since a 50 cal to the head is complete overkill. Its just that this kind of stuff is awful for gameplay, which is what matters.

Edit: and "futuristic" is the ultimate plot device, especially in galaxies far far away.
