Really original weapon design
Really original weapon design
« on: 10.13.09 | 12:55 PM »
Ok i have seen alot of flamethrower and shotgun suggestions but how about a water gun thing. Since it is the future then the water could have a high PSI which can cut through anything its sort of like a sword and a gun combined. Do you guys thing it would work?

Ok since evryone wants improvements on my idea how about on the ice maps( Frostbyte or NIvosious) it turns into a freezing weapon that turns people into ice after 5 sec. on contact and on normal maps its a push weapon that HURTSand on the Hotter maps ( the core, Forgotten) it is like a acid that burns through metal. Also it has the added benifit of cooling down fire if the flamethrower is ever added.Another point this Weapon spreads out when it goes farther away and does less damage the farther way it goes.

Since people seem to insist that this be used to create a push effect now it can where you can punch people into a wall,ground or another obstacle to crater them(bullies). Or if you want give someone else a boost by Shooting it at them so they go faster at the cost of Health( sort of like a Oh NO youre Getting shot at *push*)
Also it would go slower the farther awy Max speed 60 miles per hour Min speed 10 mile per hour ( dont know what it would be in km srry)

I like it because it's a different idea that i've not heard a million times, but this could end up just being a laser rifle with a constant beam.

Or make it malleable to the point that it freezes (IE slows someone down) on winter & sand maps and adds speed on grassy maps.
No damage - just changes the targets speed.

Too complicated, i doubt this engine can detect what type of terrain a player is on. (Not material, Terrain). I do support the idea of a weapon to slow a player down. ELF.

It would probably have a much shorter range. Maybe make it a medium range slowing weapon.

My real questions would be beam size and accuracy. How easy will it be to hit people with this slowing beam of water? Will it slow them more the more/longer you hit them with it?

Research.. play tribes 1, go to an inventory station and buy the ELF gun. Then go zap your friends, good times.

   I'd like to see the return of the ELF gun, hopefully back to it's T1 roots.  Arcs of electricity is cooler than a steady beam of electricity.
   If I were to implement the ELF gun into Legions, this is how I would set it up:  Short-medium range; ELF drains targets energy; ELF consumes energy when in use; Does not cause damage after enemy's energy is drained; Can only be used for a set duration (think 4 seconds) before it needs to recharge; When used on an enemy, that enemy is unable to Overdrive.

i really like this idea.
i think it might really get peoples attention because its so original Wink
unfortunately, it would be pretty complicated and ya might wanna add water to legions before ya add a water gun.
