Unique Weapon Ideas

I also think that the damage done should be calculated by where the player was hit on the body, thus making blows to the head often fatal. This helps if your assassinating a player or npc.

I was under the impression that the devs were working on a system for limb damage. Legs get crippled, head shots a quick death. That sort of thing.

If gore is featured with the minivoxels characters models are built with then damage could be simulated with it too. Like if you damage certain voxel it causes different effects on the player e.g. damaging brains causes death or damaging skin causes bleeding.

Sorry to revive a dead thread, but do people want to see drawings of these items?

yea that would be a good idea

I've nothing against it.

ive briefly looked over this thread and i think of it as likeable. arctic, you've outdone yourself here yet again. good job.

but anyway, weapons in game should be pre done. but only base weapons. we should have borderlands amount of weapons ingame and modifications for all of those or have the player customize it manually(i approve of this one) and let them see its affects. certain weapons should be ok in battle while others are excellent. and if you combine certain weapons, i.e. an M4 lower receiver on a .50 caliber upper for a sniper, it will give the sniper the capability of full auto. not exactly practical, but you never know when you might need to spray covering fire. but thats besides the point, the point is that weapons should be interchangeable with other weapons(compatible ones at that) and be able to custom modify every last aspect of each weapon. even to rig the weapon so it explodes in the users face if used. as some people might steal weapons off the wall of your home. introducing that would add such an advanced aspect to the game by having the player carefully look at each weapon closely to see if has been tampered and rigged.

....I'm pretty sure guns don't work like that. At all.

they do. their just specialty made uppers. you can find all sorts of uppers for the AR lower

here


this .50 BMG sniper has an AR-15(M4) lower.

EDIT:
heres a more decisive list.

How do the small ones work

As I was pointing out, they have to be modified to work. A simple swap between 5.56mm and .50 BMG isn't gonna happen.

Also, .50 BMG isn't happening. .50 Action Express is a pistol cartridge, and the .50 Beowful is a modified pistol cartridge that is purpose made.

So, yeah. A full auto .50 caliber weapon on an AR-15/M4 lower ain't happening.

A: The bullet does not fit through the magazine well of the AR-15 lower.
B: That is clearly bolt action, not automatic.

Thank you for proving my point more thoroughly.

I got a long... LONG post coming in a few days that should cover some of this. Still working on it.

I quiver with antici....pation.

interesting.

belt-fed btw

...No, that was clearly bolt action in the picture you showed.

You're just not gonna let this go, are you?

K. I'm working 18 hour days, so it may be a little while. I'll try to have it by fri.

Dang dude, it sounds like you should be sleeping. Posting on a forum can wait until you get some slack and free time x.x

nope!

get some sleep! 4 hours of sleep is hard to run off of.
