man I should not have said a thing 'bought TS now I have to go play it. soooooooooo many good memory’s, but I’m with MM on this one, but a concussion blast would be hard to silence?

A loud, bassy boom happens when you fire a Dispersion Gun in TS, but it sometimes goes unnoticed if you are in the heat of the battle. It's the perfect weapon for distracted enemies 'coz they have to watch their backs to see if anyone was charging a Dispersion blast at them.

But~ We all know for a fact that RS doesn't like to copy weapons from other games... so this might just as well be wishful thinking.

Here's more info on TS and its weapons.

This thread isn't even supposed to be discussing TS in the first place.

Hey, don't look at me! DW started it!

Besides, all I'm saying is that the Dispersion Gun would've been a cool addition to the BW arsenal if it didn't originate from TS (y'know... originality issues and the like...).

The Dispersion Gun isn't a concussion gun, it shoots bursts of plasma. You can see it sticking to the wall where it hits. I assume the waves are just heat shimmers from the high power and velocity shot. It did give me the idea, but it's a totally different weapon. And a real concussion cannon would in fact be nearly silent to all observers, except possibly the one firing the weapon, and of course the victim. Stealthy, like the Skrith, yes?
[/trying to shove this tread back on topic]

skrith.. everyone wants more skrith!

Skrith are stealthy, and favour melee weapons.. they'd rather use their blades, than a gun if they had a choice

Methinks that means they need more melee, in that case.

But you say when the prefer, unfortunately their foes are heavily armed with ranged weapons so melee is just suicide.

But hey, Skaarj warlords could take on fully-armed men with their bare hands (claws?)... why not the Skrith (considering that they are just as savage as the aforementioned)?

The skaarj aren't even remotely deadly in Unreal, they were just fortunate enough to fight warriors that didn't know what a trigger was. That was before they met me.

But I'd rather take them on than the ridiculous Gen Mo'Kai anyday...

But I digress... If the Skrith are to be of even match against the Terrans, then their vast superiority in stealth combat must be integrated into their weapons systems (although the same cannot be said for the Skrith rifle and side-arm...).

OMG!!! i realise just how little people know of the skrith.. i guesss i dont get what i'm thinking across corectly!!

Skrith dont just walk around with melee.. they hide, lurk and blend in.. they wait for the Terran to come to them, then they strike hard and fast.. a skrith is way tougher than any terran, and they dont waddle around in stoopid fat suits like skaarj in U2.. chances are, you'll only see a skrith, as u roll over on the ground with blades through your back

What you are describing doesn't fit with deathmatch style gameplay at all, the Skrith are the right race in the wrong game.

yes.. i kinda realised that

when skrith appear, it will not be in some crazy ass DM game like this.. they for a SP game with story and such..

i'm just giving everyon an idea of how skrith work.. so that they know what kinda weapons to suggest

Hey, I already gave some of by best suggestions... just look at mah sig. Plus you've said the same thing 'bout the Skrith in another thread, so I knew that already (I said I'd fit in with them, remember?).

Yeah, you fit with them pretty well, but some others didn't...

But anyways, does this mean you got more melee weapons planned for the skrith?

Nope... AFAIC, the dual Skrith blades are good enough for now... But I saw a weapon idea for a Skrith Staff not-so long ago, and I kinda liked it.

Hmm... I see... But it seems like maybe the skrith would have some sort of throat slitting weapon too, unless they pretty much stick exclusively to stabbity kills.

Guys, discussions like these should be in BW General. Darkonxy did not make this thread for the current purpose we are using it for.
Locked.
