Grenade launchers
« on: April 13, 2011, 05:29:54 pm »

Hi! Its good idea to add some fresh weapons that we can chop other players with it! I think grenade launchers should be nice-they be small guns.

M79
Good metal parts
wood
metal parts x3
 
M79 grenade x5
electronic parts
metal parts x2
gunpowder x8

M79 Plasma grenade
electronic parts
metal parts x2
refined uranium ore


And also,adding grenade launchers to rifles!

I actually thought, out of all the Tactics inventory items, the image could quite easily be tweaked to fit with F1/2. But that would also require grenade ammo and so on.

and wakizashi blades, lousville slugger, lil jesus knife, phazer maybe even pulse pistol/allien blaster after those CA (enclave?) with better resistance against energy weapons will be implemented to game.

I've always wondered, if there's armour that serves as a hard counter to lasers (metal), why isn't there an equivalent for other weapon types?

Good point , i can't understand it too because the current DR system makes no sense to me.
Maybe it's because F1 and F2 armors weren't meant for a PVP play , things need to change.

About the grenade launcher , I think it is a viable strategy to make grenades as ammo(still would be throwable) for a certain weapon. Would give grenades a much bigger part in the PVP system now , because ...... well how often do you see thrower powerbuilds ? Would have to make balance between throwing and shooting them , but i think it is doable.

there are enough Small Guns now, and it is not a Big Gun
instead of this you should think in add new Energy Weapons, maybe ones capable of burst, and of course Pulse Weaponry, being balanced of course

maybe pulse weapons could be added making electrical damage capable of burst and with low damage (8-14 for Pulse Pistol and 10-18 to Pulse Rifle) they wont be critical weapons, it sounds nice for me, and maybe it make EW more viable in TC, and more variation to EW.

otherwise a normal balanced gun with electrical damage is enough, and we will see that funny animation

Yeah i agree that some weapons from Tactics can easily added to 2238, but i don't think devs have time to do that atm.
Now what i wait most is wipe and nothing else more.

Though.. Granade pistol would be better starting gun for BG than flamer (or both can be starting weapons)

We internally talked about such stuff already some time ago. Maybe it will happen for the next wipe. It's not yet sure, though.

I don't think that more weapons are needed for more variety, if not even all of the existing ones are used.

New weapons are necessary for the sake of balance, not variety. For example, I'd like too see something like:

1. m202 (4 shot RL), which will make a rocket launcher really useful against the other weapons (now the tactic is simple: shoot and run, Run, RUN! Otherwise, you'll be killed by anyone, even by the guy carrying T0/T1 weapon)

2. some cheap big gun weapon, with a single shot mode. It's a pain in the arse for beginners to use big guns right now, because they consume a lot of ammo but don't do much damage by non-skilled players (I particulary mean minigun and such). Something like this could be nice.

3. some high tier energy weapon which do a high damage without of bypasses and criticals. The whole class of energy users are currently rely only on critical shots. What will happen to them after wipe, when you'll introduce a perks (as I've heard) which reduce the number of critical shots?

There's more of this kind of flaws, but I can't remember all of them simultaneously.
