Well the idea is to create a weapon that sends out a high pitched sound high enough to do damage to the body on cellular level .
The primary fire would be a single shot or after the special function (secondary fire button) a burst or fast firing mode
The special fire mode would be a charged shot witch would take a few seconds to charge or slower but would make a instant kill this would consume all of the ammo in the clip ( 50 or less )
Changing clips would be medium speed but the player can only hold 3 to 4 clips.
As for the sound for the weapon it would be great to use something like the secundary fire of the shield gun only a higher pitched sound.

well...
not bad, but why not use radiation instead?

Dind't thought off it but than you would need somesort of protection against the radiation else you would fry yourself.
It sounds nice though

Your idea is good although it makes no sense from a scientific point of view.

The best way to make a soundgun, is to make it form a soundwave of 4 - 7 hertz, infra-red sound. 4 - 7 Hz is the "shaking frequency" of water, and as you know, all life contains quite a bit of water in them. Humans for example are around 70% water. :)

well i'm not shore that sound will do real damage, but why not make it a paralysing sound wave with little damage. It would make your screen very bright, it would change your fov to 200 and then slowly back to the original fov and you will hear a peeping in your ears and you won't be able to hear almost anything.

well this is an idea.

PS: there are metals who can protect you from radiation, so my radiation gun idea isn’t so bad at all.

Well who says that it needs to be scientifically corect it doesn't need to be completly correct just semi-correct

parralasing sound wave sounds nice but instead of changing the FOV it would be perhaps better to make the ainming off all the weapons that you carry (using ) go completly beserk . Something like this : First hit weapon accuracy drops by 5% and second hit accuracy drops with 30% or even more.

MMM For that radiation weapon I think that it would be something like the desintegrator weapon from the arkon mod (or do you have something other in mind? )

Your idea wasn't semi-realistic, it wasn't even close. ;)

But paralyzing sounds good; when a very low frequency sound waves hit your body, it will resault in the nerve system failing and then your death. :)

not death man...
but it will make you shit in your pants, it's called Brown note. you will know what it is if you have seen braniac or MythBusters. !lol

It will resault in death if you are affected for too long, as you know, the nerve system failing is pretty damn serious for the whole body. Serious enough to kill you once important organs can't receive orders from the brain.

Well thats a nice weapon make your enemy shit his pants !lol
Sounds nice but it would be more tactical weapon not?

Now its up to the RS guys to say wath they think and discuss how it would be ballanced

Author:  Bjossi [ Mon Sep 18, 2006 12:42 pm ]
Post subject:  Sound weapon

I don't think there is any logical way to balance it...
Low frequency waves are man's ultimate enemy in this case. 8)

The germans developed a weapon like this during WW2.

But there devolpement was seen useless in hitlers eyes.

Everything was useless in Hitler's eyes. Everything and everyone, pretty much. Look at that...in the end he killed himself. Useless SOB.

Idk why, but this reminds me of how...well, you ever like to watch the credits of stuff to laugh at some funny names? Me and my buddy did that once at the credits of The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, the game. We saw some funny ones, like Rabbit Tooth, and...here I go...Mohammed Alababidi. MO-HAH-MED ALAH-BAH-B-D. Lol.

You know what's interesting? I happen to like that exact credits-game too, I do it when I'm bored in front of the TV.
You stole my idea! !mistrust

how the fock did this topic end up here?

wierd weapon idea.. radiating deaf-gun :D

Deaf-gun? Definately not, but deadly? Hell yeah. ;)

Author:  Dracone [ Wed Sep 20, 2006 1:05 pm ]
Post subject:  Sound weapon

Hmmm...Now I remember. The one I came up with was like a soundwave gun and you could see the soundwaves and the vibration killed the enemies.

Nice that would be a good adition for vissual effects

Would look REALLY good with distortion effects, and I don't think UE2.5 supports any.

Author:  Bjossi [ Wed Sep 20, 2006 2:55 pm ]
Post subject:  Sound weapon

Plus, sound waves aren't visible.
Maybe the Skrith will have figured out a way to create "audio radiation". :P

Author:  Carsomyr [ Wed Sep 20, 2006 4:44 pm ]
Post subject:  Sound weapon

Not likely. A sound weapon is kinda impractical. But something that fired a high-pressure pulse through the atmosphere. . .that would be cool. And probably slightly visible. And it would do damage through pressure shock, which could deafen preople, as well as cause damage to blood vessels and internal organs.

hey, maybe use a radiation burst that shoots out radiation waves from the whole know spectrum. that means light too, so there will be a bright flash. and lets make the FOV change fast to 200 and then slowly to normal. there will be a brightened view for some time, and there will be an EMP effect on vehicles making them unusable for some time, but you will still be able to sit in there. damage should be measured by distance, the closer you are the more the damage is. and when you’re extremely close to the gun when fired, it will be an instant kill.

Radiation waves? You do know that radiation is just unstable molecules right? It'd be pretty damn hard to make that into a practical weapon, maybe neutron-radiation would be the best option.

Author:  Carsomyr [ Thu Sep 21, 2006 7:20 am ]
Post subject:  Sound weapon

Unstable subatomic particles, actually, but whatever.

And yes, neutron bomb would be just about as effective as you could possibly want. Kill everything living in the blast radius, which is considerable, since neutron bombs are low-yeild high-radiation nuclear weapons.

But if it's a "sound weapon", I still think a pressure cannon would be most effective.

Author:  Bjossi [ Thu Sep 21, 2006 9:31 am ]
Post subject:  Sound weapon

Yes, that is a more accurate name, but unstable molecules slowly "throw away" neutrons and protons out of the core, depending on what sort of radiation is taking place.

Neutronic being the most dangerous; a bomb like that is by far the most powerful humans can possibly make. Not only would it kill every human within the range, but no harm would be done to any of the surroundings. You'd create a ghost town or city.

. . .Leaving the city, and any military equipment/vehicles completely intact and ready to serve their new owners.
